Talk:The Doctor's psychic paper

Season 6B
I just had a thought. If the Celestial Intervention Agency created the psychic paper as it states, and the fact that the Doctor has one themselves, does that not prove definitely that Season 6B is actual canon as Season 6B tells several tales of the Second Doctor was halted mid-regeneration to go work for them for an extensive period of time. And at the termination of that working period was either given, or nicked a psychic paper for themselves. --DCLM ☎  20:06, February 3, 2020 (UTC)
 * I mean, there's a lot of debate about whether S6B is part of canon or not, but wouldn't this prove that it is definite canon? --DCLM ☎  20:20, February 3, 2020 (UTC)
 * Doctor Who doesn’t have a ‘canon’ 86.12.165.34talk to me 12:32, February 5, 2020 (UTC)
 * Actually incorrect. --DCLM ☎  12:40, February 5, 2020 (UTC)
 * If anyone can answer this properly, I'll be happy to accept whatever. --DCLM ☎  12:40, February 5, 2020 (UTC)
 * OK then... genius... what does this mythical ‘Doctor Who canon’ look like? 🙄 86.12.165.34talk to me 12:41, February 5, 2020 (UTC)
 * 86 is correct as far as this wiki is concerned as per T:CANON. Additionally, this wiki already considers stories such as The Night Walkers completely valid. --Borisashton ☎  12:46, February 5, 2020 (UTC)

Sorry, I didn’t realise this wiki was the BBC 82.132.221.25talk to me 12:48, February 5, 2020 (UTC)


 * And thus there IS a canon. So saying there isn't is not correct. --DCLM ☎  12:48, February 5, 2020 (UTC)
 * Please don’t remove talk page messages. Also, this wiki is not the BBC, so what we may or may not consider valid is irrelevant, the BBC has no official ‘canon’ for Doctor Who. If you had actually bothered to read T:CANON, which you yourself linked, you would see that it explicitly states that ‘canon’ is not something that applies to Doctor Who. 213.123.3.40talk to me 14:35, February 5, 2020 (UTC)
 * No message was removed. However, it is entirely possible that it got lost during an edit conflict. --DCLM ☎  14:38, February 5, 2020 (UTC)

Oh yeah I’m sure man 213.123.3.40talk to me 14:50, February 5, 2020 (UTC)

Could we delete this talk page? It has nothing to do with the editing of this page, but is rather a bit of off-topic theorising about "canon", which then descends into an argument. BTW, that IP user is correct there is no canon in Doctor Who, but a little confused about who's actually who, given their comment "you yourself linked". Anyway, this stuff would be better suited to the forums than an article talk page. Oh, and, for the record, the story that states the CIA created psychic paper is Word Game, itself a Season 6B story, which basically already outright says all the stuff presented as "theory" in the original post, and not the first appearance of psychic paper, being published after The End of the World aired. So that story wouldn't automatically "canonise" anything even if we HAD a "canon" policy, and, as Borisashton points out, we don't, and Season 6B is already fully VALID (the closest thing we have to a "canon" system). But yeah all this, including my own post to be honest, isn't actually anything to do with the editing of this page and is just discussing the page's topic, something the system specifically warns you against when you go to create or edit a talk page. So, I repeat, can this talk page be deleted? It's just fan theories and arguments. NightmareofEden ☎  12:00, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
