a story is not just licensed because it appeared on an official site.

otherwise all of the stories made on comic maker would be official... or maybe you could say only the promoted stories are official but @Xx-connor-xX stated that several fan pieces were promoted as "story of the month".

perhaps you could say only the stories written by Who writers were official, but doesnt that take away the whole premise of the comic maker? that any fan could become a Who writer.

the way i see it these writers were invited to make their own stories, and due to the lack of work and effort i cant imagine there was even payment. i dont believe any of these stories had any more licensing rights than the stories written by fans at all.
