Our categories about websites are slightly confusing. Here's a simple guide:
category | when used | examples |
---|---|---|
real world websites | websites that only exist in the real world and are written primarily from an out-of-universe perspective | Doctor Who website, Bad Wolf website. |
websites from the real world | websites mentioned or seen within a narrative, but which also exist in the real world | eBay, YouTube, TARDIS Wiki |
tie-in websites | websites typically created by the BBC which are written from an in-universe perspective; that is, they treat their fictional subject as if it's a real thing | Who is Doctor Who?, U.N.I.T., Cybus |
websites and domains | websites that only exist within the DWU, or are substantially different from their real world counterpart | search-wise.net |
