So here we are. The fourth and unambiguously final inclusion debate on the 10,000 Dawns crossover stories Rachel Survived, White Canvas, The Gendar Conspiracy and latecomer Life After Death. The previous accessible debates are located at Thread:258247 and Thread:260549. As per SOTO's closing verdict in the latter this thread will have a tentative close date of three weeks from now.

SOTO's closing statement very clearly states: "Here, however, we are in no shortage of such evidence for rule 2 — with credits attached to the stories, and statements from the publisher, and statements from some of the authors that they have in fact been involved — and, honestly, I'm not sure that rule 4 has ever been clearer.

Multiple quotes have been drawn up from the publisher indicating, quite clearly, that the intent is for these stories to cross over with the Doctor Who universe. The most salient piece of information, which formed the basis of this thread — a quote from Wylder which plainly reads, "You can read all three of the 10,000 Dawns stories set in the Doctor Who Universe (for free) here" — was, of course, absent from the last discussion."

In other words, none of the evidence presented in the last debate was indicative of a violation of Tardis:Valid sources. This means that contributors wishing for these stories to be covered as invalid should provide new evidence to that effect.

Finally, SOTO also helpfully offers this instruction in relation to this thread: "Any messages violating T:ATTACKS or T:SPOIL will be promptly deleted. If they do occur, do not respond to them."

I hope we can now get this matter put to rest!
