That argument you made, makes me kinda sick.
Time and Rani, had the Rani in it. I loved the Rani before but I hated that episode.
Heck I like Deadpool comicbooks, but I haven't read all of them and since I haven't I don't do anything in that fandom.
I like Blake's 7 but as I'm episode four of season one I'm NOT in that fandom either.
To me a person should only be in the fandom community when they have seen the whole work (or much of it as out or around). If not then lurk or don't be in fandom.
Seven I'd say Curse of Fenric. Six well Vengeance on Varos or The Two Doctors.
Also this my bias but with expect for one or two drooling fanboy. I've found the Classic who fandom seems to be smarter or maybe I've seen one to many: "I LUV TEN-INCH's (HEE-HEE) HAIR and BUTT!" and "OMG! BARROWMAN!" Post

It's not like I'm going to write a long meta post about Harry based on a paragraph I read on Wikipedia, or a fic about Zoe without having seen any of her serials. But I'm perfectly qualified to talk about Rose, Martha, Donna, Amy, River, Jackie, Bad Wolf -- anything in the New Who umbrella, because I've seen it, I know it, I've engaged with it on a fan level. I don't need to know absolutely anything form Classic Who to know how I feel about Rose's relationship with Jackie. Those things aren't related at all. The only time this argument sort-of applies is when you come to the Doctor himself, since he's the only constant on the show, and even then, New Who was designed via Time War so that new viewers could leap right in without much or any knowledge of the Classic stuff.
There are lots of TV shows I like but I'm not in the fandom for because I don't have that level of interest in the text. I think that being in fandom does require a base knowledge of the canon. But there are many kinds of canon in Doctor Who, and there are many subsets of fandom. There are people who have only seen Eleven's seasons. Does it bother me, as a fan of the stuff that came before? Sure, I think they're missing out. But that doesn't mean they're unqualified to talk about Amy Pond, because they've seen all there is to see about Amy Pond.
I know lots of smart people who prefer or have primarily only seen New Who. I'm sure there are smart people in Classic Who fandom as well. Someone being attracted to an actor or actress doesn't preclude them being intelligent.

But it's not really anyone's fault that they happened to get into the show at a particular time and have a preference for it. I'm too young to have grown up with Classic Who, and I'm sure that's part of why the style is so foreign to me. Of course the stuff that's airing on TV right now is going to be quite popular in comparison to the stuff from twenty, thirty, forty years ago. It sucks if that's where your interest lies, but that's just the nature of how it's going to work. Considering the age of some of the Classic material I think its presence online and in fandom is pretty impressive.
