Come check out the Doctor Who Collectors Wiki!

Hello To You Too!
Thanks for the message, I love the idea of it and I'd love to use it. I'm afraid I can't help with the editing because I don't have much info on most collectibles but it's still interesting. I also have another Doctor Who Wiki idea. It's a fan fiction Doctor Who Wiki, seeing as how other sci-fi like Star Wars and Star Trek have one, I don't see why Doctor Who shouldn't have one too. I've got some fun ideas. What do you think about it? Plus, good luck with the Wiki! Kinnikufan 05:38, 15 November 2008 (UTC)


 * It's OK if you can't help with editing or making new pages. I have been doing all that myself. I think there might already be a wiki for Doctor Who fan fiction, but I am not sure. But it would be a great idea for one. Tardis1963 05:46, 15 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I just checked and there is one. Well, I'm satisfied anyways. Again, good luck with your wiki! (^_^) Kinnikufan 05:54, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

Marking an image for deletion
Hi, thanks for assisting in bring an image to attention. The proposed deletion tag is, this tag is best placed on the image page, rather than that image's talk page. This tag also puts the image in the prop delete category. You can edit image pages the same as regular pages (the tag appears below the image). Thanks. --Tangerineduel 14:36, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Story titles and capitalization
Saw your talk page posts about changing some of the story titles' capitalization. On the one hand, you are right as to what's on the page; on the other, I prefer the (grammatically) correct capitalization. I think the best solution for now would be to create a redirect page. (Let me know if you don't know how to do that.)

As for a long-term solution, you might want to post something in the Forum, asking for input on what we should all do about these.

And welcome! Monkey with a Gun 04:49, September 27, 2009 (UTC)


 * OK. Redirects are a good idea, I suppose. And thanks for the welcome, even though I've been around here for a little while I haven't really made any edits. I've mostly been working on the wiki I set up last year, Doctor Who Collectors Wiki Tardis1963 04:57, September 27, 2009 (UTC)

Your wiki
Just had a look at your DW Collectibles wiki - very impressive start!

Two suggestions: in the link box at the top of the page, it reads "CD's" and "DVD's" - it should be "CDs" and "DVDs" (the apostrophe makes it possessive). Second, you should ask in the Forum if it would be okay to add links to merchandise pages on this wiki to yours; you'd get more users if that were approved by the community.

 * Thanks for the suggestions. And, yeah, I know about the "CD's" and "DVD's" error, but because all the categoried use apostrophes, it would be a huge job to fix it up. But I will get around to it, one day. Tardis1963 05:04, September 27, 2009 (UTC)

Font
The font used on Doctor Who Wiki is FuturaDisD, a very close approximation of what's used on Region 2 DW DVDs.  Czech Out  ☎ | ✍  05:40, March 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, I guess I should point out it's modified in the logo somewhat. The color is sampled from the actual Tardis logo to the left, and then a white border is placed around it as a nod to the new Matt Smith TARDIS.  Then the whole thing is given a drop shadow for a mild 3D effect.   Czech Out   ☎ | ✍  05:55, March 10, 2010 (UTC)

Your wiki's logo on our front page
Hey, I've updated our front page to include a section listing other DW wikis on wikia. And I wanted to explain to you why I've chosen an out-of-date version of your logo, just in case you were concerned. Your current logo is unfortunately not transparent, but the one you used to use (with the McCoy era logo) was transparent. Transparency is really important for this section, because it's not on a white background. Additionally, your current logo, while it looks fine at the size used on your wiki, doesn't show up very well at the smaller size we're using, because it's so dark. So good news is that your wiki is now directly linked from our front page, but the possibly bad news is that we're using a version of your logo that you've discarded. I hope you don't mind too terribly much.  Czech Out  ☎ | ✍  05:21, March 16, 2010 (UTC)

 * Hi. I was just adding the 'Welcome' template, to welcome you to here. (And to practise revised signature) Tardis1963 22:04, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

Welcoming users
That's totally fine! Thanks. --Tangerineduel 06:34, April 6, 2010 (UTC)

Not by me, but by someone else: I renamed it to include "(opinion)". ~Iris~ 04:12, April 7, 2010 (UTC)

Comments about signing posts
It's better to put those on a user's talk page rather than responding to questions with "sign your post". If you're going to do that, please at least make an effort to respond to their question. It just comes across as snobby otherwise. -- sulfur 11:37, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

Problem reports
Hi. Problem reports aren't really the best way to communicate issues with the pages, editors (admins included) will generally respond more promptly to notes left on the article's talk page. Thanks. --Tangerineduel 14:09, June 23, 2010 (UTC)

Stub templates
Heya again :) Thanks, as always, for continuing to edit our wiki alongside yours. :)  Just wanted to advise you of something that's recently changed, which you might not have noticed in the midst of building your own wiki. We now have a rather large collection of stub templates for you to use. You can see the category at stub templates. I noticed you added an article, Steve Thompson, directly to a stub category, without using a stub template. Since we want to alert readers to the fact tat we know the article is stubby, we prefer using a template, which puts up an obvious tag and automatically adds the stub category. IN this particular case, the article should have had TV writer stub placed at the bottom.

Thanks again for your efforts here, and if you need anything to help you edit better, please let me know. 12:57:48 Thu 19 May 2011

Signature
Please change your signature. You might not know it, but your signature is in violation of our signature policy. All signatures must contain a link to your user and talk pages on this wiki. Currently, your signature contains neither, and it forces users to leave our wiki. You may certainly have a link to your primary wiki in your signature, but you can't "trick" people who just want to leave you a message into leaving w:c:tardis. Off-site redirection is a trait common to many spamming efforts. If you need help creating a new signature that will behave differently on different wikis, please see help:signatures. 02:13: Wed 02 Nov 2011
