User:SOTO/Forum Archive/The Panopticon/@comment-906873-20151103171157/@comment-865955-20151103175629 Maybe time for a "deep breath" everyone? (Not the episode, haha...) It's fun to talk about what's canon, but it can get heated for folks. Let's not devolve to insults.

I personally agree with the opinion that the TV episodes are the true canon of the show. That being said, I recognize that there's a stated policy otherwise on this wiki, which essentially says that we can all believe what we like. However, that also being said, the modern (and some classic) TV episodes do seem to regularly contradict stories in other media. I'd be up for a change to at least put greater emphasis on information from televised stories. Maybe I'm in the minority on this, maybe not. And I certainly don't want to alienate those who really enjoy the written stories, audio dramas, etc. I'm just of the belief that '"Doctor Who'' is, first and foremost, a television show.

Again, this is just my opinion. It'll continue to be, and regardless I'll still continue to regularly contribute to this wiki as I have done for years. Thanks for your time in reading this :)
