New stuff on the wiki as of 19:26, August 19, 2011 (UTC) We are experiencing a temporary alteration of the edit menu that appears on user and user talk pages. This issue appears to be the result of the changeover that Wikia recently made to the format of user pages. Amongst the things now missing from the user talk edit menus are the "refresh", "archive", and "edit intro" features. We are working with Wikia to resolve this matter. No other namespaces are affected by this. As we work to restore these menus to their former utility, you are encouraged to temporarily switch to the monobook skin if you need to perform an easy archive of your user talk page. This issue only affects the "new look" Wikia skin. As you've probably noticed, user pages now look slightly different. You're encouraged to read the message about it that's popped up in the bottom left-hand corner of your screens. Our own unique styling has been quickly applied to the new user page masthead, in order to make it better blend with the rest of our site. If you want to see an example of a user page that has their profile filled in more completely, but don't want to leave our wiki, please take a look at user:Ausir. Just to emphasise a point that Wikia Central are making, whatever you fill in to this new masthead goes with you across all Wikia wikis, so do consider carefully how you fill in those blanks. We're still looking for a new background, to be implemented on 27th August — the date of the debut of Let's Kill Hitler. New designs will retain the Rex Matheson that we currently have on the right side, but replace the image of Jack with a character from the current series of Doctor Who. Please submit your proposals at background image submissions Please note that wales crew is undergoing major surgery in order to accommodate the totally different credit style used by Torchwood: Miracle Day. Crew listings on TV story pages will be "glitchy" over the course of the next 24-48 hours. Listings will possibly look different on a momentary, or per-page-load, basis. This template is easier to change "live" — as opposed to using a sandbox — because each change needs to be viewed across several different shows' episode pages at the same time.

As the new style sheet is being implemented, you may see some untidy signs of construction. Thanks for your patience as we remodel. If you want to see the latest changes, you'll probably have to bypass your browser's cache. Safari users merely need to reload pages. Firefox users just have to hold down SHIFT, then press the reload button. Chrome users can press Ctrl + F5. Those using other browsers should check their help files for specific instructions.

Alternately, you can now just pull down the "edit" menu to refresh, and that should perform an automatic purge for you.
