Yes I do. One any wiki I go on and I see that there is discussion on the talk page, I usually go and see what is on the page.

You are still missing the point that myself, CzechOut, Shambala108, Tangerineduel and Imamadman have say. If the story is non DWU it cannot have continuity. It is impossible.

There might be interesting, but have continuity (and even references) go against what the non DWU does.

Rowan Earthwood wrote: Why would you include references without hyperlinks? Purely to make the wiki less functional?

Having links to the pages would encourages editors to add information from the story. For example, if Death Comes to Time has a link to beer, then someone might edit the article to include what happened with beer in the story - which cannot happen. Non DWU information cannot go on in universe articles.
