TARDIS Index Files was a YouTube series that showcased Doctor Who aliens and villains, explaining their histories and what they're capable of. They are presented by the TARDIS monitor in the Twelfth Doctor's control room, presumably making reference to the TARDIS information system and index file. They are presented in an universe point of view much like Mr Smith's data updates and Monster Files.
The Index Files are a monthly feature on the official Doctor Who YouTube channel, and feature illustrations from Rachael Stott.

Notes
- Who Are The Ood? makes the claim that the Ood Sphere is in the same star system as the Sense Sphere, a claim also made in Doctor Who The Official Annual 2007, but never confirmed within the Doctor Who universe.
- Briefly on screen in Who Is The Master is an alert message from the Celestial Intervention Agency, a Time Lord organisation mentioned only in books and audios.
BBC America
On 23 November 2013, the BBC America YouTube channel released a "stats" file on the Zygons for the 50th anniversary. The video was nearly identical in content to the later Who Are The Zygons, except that it took place in the Eleventh Doctor's Victorian TARDIS, and did not feature information from series 8. The BBC America version is actually much more detailed than the later Index File.
