Hey
Hey, welcome (back, technically) to the Tardis. Great contributions so far. :)

Just a few things I thought I'd point out, though. On another topic, any idea what happened what made Bisme Katusi start off with the main page under it? I'd love to have that weird bug squashed. -- SOTO ( ☎ / ✍ \ ♆ ) 05:25, February 28, 2014 (UTC)
 * File:Bisme.jpg unfortunately had to be deleted because it was under 250px in width, but more actually because it was unsourced. You put the right licensing template, which is certainly a great step, but if it's a copyright image as the template says, you should at the very least link to the source of the image (as the template also says, as it happens).
 * Actors are not the characters they play. Your addition to Daryl Crittenden would be better suited on the page for the young man, which you could easily create using the character preload. You can take a peak at T:IU and other pages within the manual of style if you're unsure of yourself.
 * Sources are meant to be formatted like: TV: Rendition. So a link to TV, colon, and then a italicised link to Rendition. In wikitext — which you can edit in by clicking on "classic editor" in the edit dropdown, or by clicking "source editor" under "more" while editing with VisualEditor — this is:.
 * Also, do your Miracle Day edits mean you're working on finally adding TW series 4 to your site? I'd love that. I find your work very helpful. :) -- SOTO ( ☎ / ✍ \ ♆ ) 05:27, February 28, 2014 (UTC)

Page creation
Hi! A few things about your page creation of Excited teenager: I think that covers everything. Basically, if you are planning on creating more pages for these minor Torchwood characters (and I see that there are a lot of them), then I suggest you take a look at the changes I made to your article and go on from there. Thanks, and I hope this helps! Shambala108 ☎  15:40, March 4, 2014 (UTC)
 * I changed the name from Excited Teenager to Excited teenager for grammar reasons. Even though the cast list capitalizes Teenager, on this wiki we don't capitalize common nouns. So when you create a page like this, you would have to pipe switch the cast listing on the story page, like this: Excited Teenager . Please keep this in mind if you plan on doing more of these, such as Pale Woman, Pushy Woman, etc.
 * The "alias" field of the infobox should be used only sparingly. It's for often-used aliases or main aliases of one-time characters. An alias is never the restating of the article name or any variation of it.
 * All in-universe articles are written as though they were an encyclopedia entry of the person/event. So we don't say things like, "blank was the cast list name for...". Please see my change to the page to see how we would write the intro.
 * All pages must have at least one category. You can find the list of categories at Special:Categories. If you're working on series 4 of Torchwood, there's an easy category for each category, which is "21st century individuals".
 * Please keep in mind that we have a page for the fictional Categories of Life as well as the story name The Categories of Life. This does happen with a few stories in the DWU.
 * You should always source the material you put in an article, even if you've already put the story name in the infobox. Yes, this character appears in only one story, which you listed in the infobox, but we always want to cite information in the body of the article as well, whether the character/object appears in one story or one hundred.

Just saying hi
Just wanted to stop by and say hello, I'm a huge fan of your website, and it's been a phenomenal resource while working on this wiki. I'm involved in a dozen-or-so different Doctor Who fan communities across the internet and everyone knows, uses, and loves your website. I hope you know how big a fanbase you have across the whole Who fandom :) – N8 ☎ 17:27, June 20, 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for the greeting
And for those kind words. I'm increasingly of the opinion that all BFP Who (and especially 8th Doctor) is closer to canon than the BBC Nu-Who stuff - especially since they increased his regenerations to infinity.... the wimps. I've joined your Discord group but don't expect much from this old woman. I only drop in online for short times thanks to rural internet speeds and don't really 'get' a lot of the modern text talking...
