I've been going through proposed mergers / deletions and recently found The Doctor (TV Action!) primarily overhauled by Borisashton. In the edit summary they assert "adding info set in other meta-fiction universe stories since they are all one character)".

Are they?

There's a merge tag on Doctor Who (Deadline) to merge with The Doctor (TV Action!) because "its the same universe". This can't be correct as in Deadline Doctor Who was a failed pilot. And I don't think it's enough to say that it's an "Alternate timeline" as The Doctor (TV Action!) currently has along with info from All Our Christmases (short story).

There's also a merge tag on The Doctor (The Girl Who Loved Doctor Who) citing the same reasoning.

The Girl Who Loved Doctor Who (comic story) and TV Action! (comic story) might share the same universe, because they both feature the Doctor in the "real world". But there isn't anything concrete linking them (not even a Meep in the background of Girl Who Loved's convention scenes (that I can see at least).

Is there anything that might suggest any of these stories take place in the same universe? --Tangerineduel / talk 15:15, September 28, 2018 (UTC)
