Due to the nature of the show, any timeline described here can be overwritten, split, or contradicted -- both by its own canon and by the countless spin-off media of the Franchise/DoctorWhoExpandedUniverse, while still being of fitting in anyway. In turn, the core canon can contradict or overwrite the expanded universe or even the main series itself, but can also canonise or restore bits of it at times. This flexibility is thanks (per various different WordOfGod sources such as series writer Paul Cornell) to the fact that other than a general rule that says no one should be expected to have purchased expanded universe content to understand any episode in the TV series itself, Creator/TheBBC has never put in a hard and fast rule as to what is "canon", which contrasts with the ''Franchise/StarTrek'' franchise where its owners (Creator/{{Paramount}}) and creator (Creator/GeneRoddenberry) put in a longstanding rule that only what appears on screen counted. Indeed, while the TV series has contradicted the expanded universe, it has also directly referenced events and characters from it as well.

The ''Whoniverse'' is TheVerse inhabited by the Doctor, central character of ''Series/DoctorWho''. It is a large and unwieldy beast full of internal contradictions. Fortunately, it's a really, ''really'' big universe encompassing all of space and a history stretching from the Big Bang to 100 trillion years in the future (plus an alternate universe or five). And fact that time travel is central to the franchise, history is - sometimes - mutable, and branching timelines can be created provides a handy explanation for contradictions.
