User:SOTO/Forum Archive/The Panopticon/@comment-31010985-20180428165444/@comment-33695797-20200107202542 After reading this quite interesting thread, there's something I'd like to add: using the term "alternate reality" implies that a mainstream story acknowledged these stories as a sort of parallel universe, and "alternate validity" could be pretty confusing to readers who are not familiar with this wiki's policy and interpretation of valid sources. (I'm even having a hard time wrapping my head around that phrase.) So, I propose we call stories like the Cushing movies what they are generally agreed on to be: an alternate continuity.
