User:SOTO/Forum Archive/Inclusion debates/@comment-1272640-20170105211701 I'd like to reopen the Vienna debate, given that the reasons for exclusion are flimsy at best.

It's considered invalid currently because of a single comment saying "it's not in the Doctor Who world at all". But it's entirely unclear whether they're speaking literally, or if they're just saying it's a standalone thing. There's a big difference between this and Dorian Gray. With the latter, I asked the Creative Team on the Divergent Universe forums, and they outright stated that The Confessions of Dorian Gray literally IS in a different universe, and Shades of Gray is a different Dorian, from a different universe. But here, it's completely vague as to whether they literally mean Vienna is a different universe.

I raise this as evidence in favor of inclusion:

Big Finish is repeatedly stating that Vienna is a spin-off. Over and over and over. I'm fairly certain one of these instances, it's coming from Richardson himself.
