OK, I have to correct a mistake that is pervasive throughout this thread and several others.

Validity is not determined by appearances. There are several stories that contain the Doctor and/or his companions that are nevertheless invalid. For example, This is just a small random sample.
 * And Introducing...
 * Planet of the Rain Gods (comic story)
 * Fixing a Hole (short story)
 * Storm in a Tikka (short story)
 * Dermot and the Doctor (TV story)
 * The Doctor needs YOUR help! (TV story)
 * Merry Christmas Doctor Who (TV story)

These stories are considered invalid, despite having the Doctor in them, but the wiki hasn't ground to a halt. Please do not use character appearance to argue for a story's validity. Posts doing so may be subject to deletion.
