Page creations
Hi please see the changes I made at First Doctor (Unbound Universe) and Second Doctor (Unbound Universe). There were many policy violations in your page creations, including but not limited to:
 * Tardis:Citation
 * Tardis:Bold text
 * Tardis:In-universe perspective
 * Tardis:Categorisation

Hi, please don't create any more pages on this wiki until you have a lot more editing experience. Your recent spate of created pages violates many of the policies I cited a month ago, as well as several others, and now others will have to clean up after your work. Thanks Shambala108 ☎  01:57, 4 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi PepsiMagnet, please see these changes for an illustration of how formatting works on this wiki. In particular,
 * most character pages don't need most fields from
 * in citations, we always use prefixes like PROSE or AUDIO and  italicise  story titles: (AUDIO: He Jests at Scars...), not (He Jests at Scars... (audio story))
 * we use == Equal signs ==, not  bold  , to create headings
 * we never do sneaky links like the Time Lords . What you see should be what you get!
 * Hope this helps, and let me know if you have any further questions! – n8 (☎) 18:02, 4 August 2022 (UTC)

Official warning
Hi when I told you above not to create any more pages for now, I wasn't doing it just out of boredom. It's an official request from an admin that you ignored.

Some of us on the wiki are discussing which of your created pages should exist and which shouldn't, so you shouldn't create any more for now; more importantly, until you learn how to properly create a page without so many errors, you will confine yourself to just editing.

Talk pages
Hi PepsiMagnet, I had to revert Special:Diff/3308697 since it broke the template. If you want to ask editors for help, I recommend writing on their user talk pages (like this one) or the talk pages for the pages you want to be created (in this case, Talk:Narvin (The Warrior's universe)). Leaving commentary in edit summaries doesn't leave people a place to respond. – n8 (☎) 21:03, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

On your new page
Hello PepsiMagnet, In recent changes I saw you created the page PepsiMagnet Discontinuity Page: Why doesn’t Donna know about the other invasions of Earth? Shambala108, this is a theory or talk page, not an official article. I wanted to let you know:

While these types of pages are allowed, they shouldn't be in the main namespace. You should either use a page in the Theory namespace (see Theory:Index), Howling (Howling:The Howling) or on your own user subpage (that would be User:PepsiMagnet/whatever you want to call the page, see T:USER PAGE and its related guidelines). Otherwise, the wiki will treat the page like it is a normal page on the wiki, when that's only for factual documentation. Hope this helps you! Chubby Potato ☎  05:55, 15 August 2022 (UTC)


 * You can move a page by clicking the three dots at the top next to the edit button and choosing "Move". In this case you will want uncheck "leave a redirect behind", and for this one make sure it starts with Howling: or User:. However, you should know that moving pages usually isn't done without discussion and is usually done by an admin except to fix small mistakes, like a spelling error or in this case creating a page in the wrong namespace (the name before the colon). Your page ended up in the Main namespace because "PespiMagnet Discontinuity Page" isn't a namespace coded into the wiki like "User", "File", "Talk", "Theory", "Howling", etc. Chubby Potato ☎  06:34, 15 August 2022 (UTC)

Questions
Hi let me see if I can answer all your questions.


 * Redlinks (see Tardis:Redlinks): please do not remove redlinks from articles. They are not bad; they are future pages. If you see or make a redlink, you do not have to create it if you don't know the story involved (in fact, if you don't know the story, you shouldn't make the page). There is no need to ask anyone else, either generally or specifically, to create the page. It will get created when someone who has the time, desire and knowledge to make it decides to. As long as you don't undo the redlinks, there's nothing else you have to do. And if you don't know much about the subject, creating a mostly empty page is not a good idea.
 * Theory pages: you cannot make theory pages on the main namespace which is where we create most of our articles. The only place you can post theories is in the theory namespace, which you can find by looking at the toolbar at the top of every page, hover over "Tardis Community", and continue to theories. There you will see all the theory pages we have and you can add to them.
 * Theory pages you already made: those pages will be deleted, but I will keep them up for a couple of days if you want to copy/paste the information to the theory namespace.
 * Please do not ask me or any other user to add information or images to articles. None of us know everything about Doctor Who, and it does no good to ask someone to do something that they might not have information for. Things will get done when they get done, though not as fast as some people might wish.
 * Sandbox: anyone can make a sandbox article. It just has to be correctly formatted. User:Chubby Potato told you how to do that above. However, please do not do as he suggests and move your theory page; you won't be able to delete the redirect. Instead, just create the new page and copy\paste your info there.
 * Please learn how to sign your name on talk pages. You must type four tildes, like this: ~ This will create a link to both your user page and your talk page, along with the date and time you signed.

I think that's all. Shambala108 ☎  23:55, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

A (late) welcome and Alternate Individuals page
Hey Pepsi, please let me start this message with an apology, and a general "welcome" message. As one of the admins who course-corrected (more than) a couple of your edits, it's very much my fault that I haven't reached out to you sooner; for that, I can only apologize. A message like this can ease one's mind when we arrive on a new space, and I'm again very sorry I didn't get round to it before.

I see you have a great interest in making pages for alternate timeline/parallel universe individuals, and I love it! I just hope over the next few messages we share I can assist you in tinkering them to improve the articles you edit even further. For one further ease of mind: none of your edits have been lost! For example, though The Master (Exile) appears as "deleted", it was simply integrated back at the general The Master page (same for all other pages I ""deleted"").

Anyway, I don't want to "scare" you with a big message, so I'll stop here, until such a time you reply me. I truly hope this can be a start of a great editing partnership. For now: how are you? :) OncomingStorm12th ☎  23:33, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
