I don't know why you people decided to remove the Vienna audio series from the wiki. I've only skimmed through this debate, but most the arguments in favour of deletion have been ridiculous. Vienna is a Doctor Who spinoff. Exactly the same as Jago & Litefoot. Exactly the same as Dalek Empire. Exactly the same as Bernice Summerfield. Exactly the same as Charlotte Pollard. If it stars a character who first appeared in a Doctor Who story, that makes it a Doctor Who spinoff, even if Big Finish says otherwise.

It doesn't matter whether it's canon or not. It doesn't matter if it's part of the Doctor Who universe or not. What matters is that it's a Doctor Who spinoff and includes at least one Whoniverse species, the Slithergee. If someone wanted to listen to every audio story that the Slithergee appeared in, they might go to the Slithergee wiki page and incorrectly conclude that the Slithergee have only appeared in Flip-Flop.

Lovecraft characters, the Fantastic Four and Death's Head did not originate in Doctor Who stories. They are crossovers, not spinoffs.

Please restore The Memory Box and Vienna: Series One to the wiki.
