User:SOTO/Forum Archive/The Panopticon/@comment-27321963-20200710123549/@comment-6032121-20200710153117 I disagree. You successfully prove that a temporal relationship of some sort exists between Daughter of Mine, Aphasia, and an arbitrary number of other variations. But in the absence of clear evidence of quite what this relationship is, I think it would be too speculative to merge the pages.

To put it bluntly, if it' "not quite her", if it's" a different her", then it sounds to me like we should treat the two like" parallel universe"/"alternate timeline"-type variations of each other, minus the "parallel universe" bit. It is not clear that they have continuity of consciousness with one another, which I think should clearly be the deciding factor. They have ties to each other, but they're not the same person the way the Splinters of Clara are all Clara — Clara goes through each lifetime one after the other as she's falling through the timestream, and kind of remembers all of them once it's done. No such thing is in evidence with Daughter of Mine.
