I would thank you to stop with the borderline-gaslighting. We can quibble all night about definitions — prose extract, short story, handwritten veeblefetzer, call it what you like. But it's a matter of fact that it was released. You read it, I read it. The fact that it was later deleted does not change the fact that it was, at one time, available to any member of the public who wanted to read it.

Then it was deleted. Just like The Feast of Steven.

As User:NateBumber explained, Wallowing in Pessimism's Mire was never released to the general public. As far as anyone knows, the advanced-copy ebooks were only sent out to reviewers. But if the ebook had been available for purchase by the general public, even for a single week, then it would absolutely be covered on the Wiki, I have every confidence. Again, The Feast of Steven was only broadcast once in the history of everything, then it was destroyed. Brevity of availability doesn't change anything.

……

EDIT: Woops, we, uh, broke the Wiki. Quoth Nardole: "No biggie!"

Unsure how to proceed; I see an inquiry has been sent to an Administrator to sort it out. Until then, everyone please hold. Make notes of counterarguments if you have them, but let's not scatter this around talk pages or whatever.
