SuperWho makes sense to me.

SuperWhoLock doesn't. Sherlock doesn't seem like it's particularily mixy with fantasy/scify canons unless you're going for a full AU for Sherlock.

SuperWho needs a lot of explaining for me - how does the fantasy elements of SPN mesh with the very sci-fi elements of DW? Oh I'm sure if you work hard on it, you can come up with plenty of technobabble to make it pass.

Sherlock I think does work fine with other fandoms because I feel that mixing a non-fantasy/sci-fi modern world with one of one of those is a lot easier to do than mixing those two elements. However one has to explain how Sherlock Holmes can exist in the 21st century when it's canon in DW for ACD to exist and have written his stories.

I have read a Merlin/SPN crossover that I thought worked (Merlin and Arther were cursed to be immortal).
I know of an epic fic that crosses SPN and Criminal Minds, with added elements from NCIS and Covert Affairs in recent chapters (don't ask for a link, the writer pulled it off FFN and seems to only have it on some Google thing that I don't understand) - but all those other shows are non-fantasy cop/forensic/CIA shows, so what I said about Sherlock applies.
I've seen one good DW/Avengers crossover where Auton!Rory is working for SHIELD in the world with no stars. It works because even the more magical elements of Marvel movieverse seem more like sufficiently advanced technology (i.e. indistinguishable from magic).

My pet favourite at the moment is Hobbit/Sherlock reincarnation fics (John Watson was a hobbit in his past life, and his flatmate is an ex-dragon).

But pile more than two fandoms of different flavour (sci-fi, fantasy) in any given crossover fic and you run the risk of having too many conflicting elements and the suspension of disbelief is too hard to achieve.
