Edit summary?
You posted this in an edit summary for LaMort:
 * "I don't really think the infobox (no, not individual, spell check) is needed in this instance."

What does the part in parentheses mean? Shambala108 ☎  05:53, March 22, 2013 (UTC)


 * Overheard/read/whatever-you-call-it-on-the-net. You have so much to teach your phone spell check. I know the feeling. ;) Of course, now, mine knows how to correctly spell "Bwahahaha"... --ComicBookGoddess ☎  06:22, March 22, 2013 (UTC)

Huh?
I'm unable to see your problem with the "leave message" button. It's right there. At the top of the page. Where it always is. 05:30: Sat 23 Mar 2013

Redlink to The Bells of Saint John
I linked to it now so that once we have a page it'll already be all nicely linked. 01:56, March 25, 2013 (UTC)

Changing/Messages in the forums
I left a message concerning your creation of a sub-page to the main page rather than as Bold Clone had done a sub-page of their user page as I was curious why you did it that way. I removed and rewrote my message as I felt a clearer note concerning the specifics of the merger process was better for the conversation. Sorry for any confusion I caused you. --Tangerineduel / talk 06:03, March 29, 2013 (UTC)

Personal attack
I'm not offended at you calling me arrogant in Clara: How many articles does one girl need? because you don't know me, but I suggest you re-read Tardis:No personal attacks. You can't call someone a name just because they disagree with you; it won't look good for the new users we will be getting in the next few weeks to see someone who edits so much getting away with personal attacks. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎  19:17, March 29, 2013 (UTC)
 * I didn't say "ignorant", I said "arrogant". You said in your thread after mine: "...arrogantly carrying out your opinion." Whether you were talking to me or someone else, it can still be construed, especially by a new user, as an attack. Shambala108 ☎  19:30, March 29, 2013 (UTC)
 * Ok glad we got that sorted out. Like I said, I wasn't offended, I've been called much worse here. It just shows that we need to be careful communicating in a place where there are no visual or auditory clues to a person's intent. Shambala108 ☎  23:20, March 29, 2013 (UTC)

Clara and move locks
Any moves/mergers will have to wait 15 hours or so as I'm away from a desktop comp. and currently only have an iPad to edit on, which makes doing moves and other edits like that a little tricky. --Tangerineduel / talk 12:04, March 30, 2013 (UTC)

Conjecture
Enhanced guidelines on proper usage of have been posted to that template's documentation page. Since the expansion came because of your usage at CPR, you might want to give them a gander. Basically, the deal is that and  should never be used simultaneously; it's too confusing for readers. is a permanent state of being, like. indicates a call for action. Most of the time, if you have a suggestion, you're saying that, actually, there is a non-conjectural name, therefore the two tags are usually incompatible. And even if you're suggesting a new, better conjectural name, the two tags create a sense of confusion when used simultaneously. 01:42: Thu 04 Apr 2013

Relax, already :)
I just happened to be posting in the same section as you at user:Tangerineduel and noticed your comments. Please do me a favour and chill. It is really not cool to go to an admin and say, "if you don't move this thing now, then I'll do it myself".

I'll say this again: you are not an admin. You do not have the power to complete a page merge. Full stop. It is not one of the gifts that your account enjoys. So please stop threatening to do what you cannot do. Progress will happen, but remember that we all have different commitments both at and away from the wiki. Nobody dies if we move Clara in a few days. A lot of fruitful discussion has occurred in the time since 29 March, so in that sense it's good that TD didn't perform the merge according to your time table.

Relatedly, I have to tell you that I've fielded some mild frustration with respect to your overeagerness in discussions. In the off=season there aren't as many people here, so there's a sense in which those of us who are here year round tend to kinda dominate discussions. But once Doctor Who comes back, our editorship tends to explode. We want to give all our returning editors a welcome. Since this is the first season where we've had the new forums, it's important to really see how it changes the dynamic of discussion.

So please try to take a step back and let discussion and flow. Make your points about the topic of the thread and then leave the thread alone for a few days. Try really hard to just comment on the substance of the question in the thread, and then step back and see how the thread develops. Believe me, I know that's hard, and I'm gonna have to take a lot of this advice myself.

A good person to try to emulate in discussions is Shambala. She's active in the forums, but never, ever over the top. Look at how she rolls. It's a masterclass in forum discussion.

Having said all that, I do want to say that I very much appreciate the way that you've tried to make amends to the people you might have offended. That goes a long way in my book, and means that you're not really in any kinda trouble around here. Text-based communication is just hard, yanno? All we can do is just keep trying to improve our skills. 02:08: Thu 04 Apr 2013
