Good idea. I shall do the same, though by all means, User:Najawin, do so as well if my points don't quite represent your position. Then we'll leave this here for people to add new information/ideas to if there are any yet to be scraped from the bottom of the metaphorical barrel.
 * Harness used the tweetalong's tag, released this a short time after the tweetalong had completed, and has teased during the tweetalong proper that he "might want to revisit" the idea. Sounds pretty connected to me.
 * While it may not be officially part of Lockdown!, it definitely passes T:OFF REL. It's just that if it isn't part of Lockdown!, it's perfectly-released fanfic.
 * Emily Cook stated that the "unproduced story mentioned by Harness" was not part of Lockdown!. Two things wrong with this:
 * the TV story (A) and hypothetical novelisation (B) were mentioned by Harness, but not the actual page of prose released in 2020 (C). Therefore, Cook was talking about either A or B, but not C, which is what's under discussion.
 * with Thread:273268 still ongoing, it remains DiSoRiENTed's personal opinion that Emily Cook's word overrides use of the hashtag when determining whether something posted by a Lockdown! host counts as "a Lockdown! story" for this Wiki.
 * Russell T Davies and Robert Shearman were all kidding when they "pretended" that their new prose stories were discarded extracts from old material. Considering how unlikely a Target novelisation of a random unmade 2015 story is, it seems to me Harness was most likely doing the exact same thing, that B never existed, and that C is a piece of original fiction released in 2020 (licensed or otherwise).
 * Even if C is in fact an extract from B, then if we agree its release was licensed, it should have its own page, except invalid — just like Spider Dalek and Friend from the Future and P.S. — separate from our coverage of the overall, unfinished, unreleased novelisation.

Now have at it, newcomers to the thread and/or would-be closing admin. I'm outta here.
