User talk:Pluto2

'''Welcome to the Pluto2 Thanks for your edits! We hope you'll keep on editing with us. This is a great time to have joined us, because now you can play the Game of Rassilon with us and win cool stuff! Well, okay, badges. That have no monetary value. And that largely only you can see. But still: they're cool! We've got a couple of important quirks for a Wikia wiki, so let's get them out of the way first. British English, please We generally use British English round these parts, so if you're American, please be sure you set your spell checker to BrEng, and take a gander at our spelling cheat card. Spoilers aren't cool We have a strict definition of "spoiler" that you may find a bit unusual. Basically, a spoiler, to us, is anything that comes from a story which has not been released yet. So, even if you've got some info from a BBC press release or official trailer, it basically can't be referenced here. In other words, you gotta wait until the episode has finished its premiere broadcast to start editing about its contents. Please check the spoiler policy for more details. Other useful stuff Aside from those two things, we also have some pages that you should probably read when you get a chance, like:
 * the listing of all our help, policy and guideline pages
 * our Manual of Style
 * our image use policy
 * our user page policy
 * a list of people whose job it is to help you

If you're brand new to wiki editing — and we all were, once! —  you probably want to check out these tutorials at Wikipedia, the world's largest wiki:
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
 * Picture tutorial

Remember that you should always sign your comments on talk and vote pages using four tildes like this: ~ ~ ~ ~

Thanks for becoming a member of the TARDIS crew! If you have any questions, see the Help pages, add a question to one of the Forums or ask on my talk page. -- CzechOut (Talk) 23:24, 2012 January 30

Recent edit to Tenth Doctor
Your recent edit to the Tenth Doctor article was rolled back because it contained a significant amount of material that appears to have been copied from the Doctor Who Reference Guide, which is plagiarism.

Any of the information that wasn't from the DW Ref Guide appears to have been copied from the Summary pages from this wiki. While you can copy information around on this wiki there should be different interpretations and presentations of information for different articles. Also note that for in-universe articles (which are any that don't have the real world tag on them that everything must be written in the past tense. Please have a look through our Manual of Style and our Help pages, and also have a look around the wiki at the various articles to familiarise yourself with how articles are written on this wiki. Thanks. --Tangerineduel / talk 13:41, January 31, 2012 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure what you're asking me to do.
 * I won't write, or rewrite your additions for you. As I said above you copied the information from the DWREF Guide and the summary pages.
 * If you want to add content to the pages you need to write the information based on your reading of the texts/watching of the shows/listening to the audios. Thanks. --Tangerineduel / talk 02:13, February 8, 2012 (UTC)

Forum decisions
Hi! I feel like I need to make something clear to you. Forum decisions can only be closed by admins. If a discussion is not closed, it is still ongoing. Please do not take any actions based on still-open forum discussions. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎  03:21, November 22, 2016 (UTC)

Input on a thread
You seem like the sort of person whose input would be helpful on Thread:206566. Fwhiffahder ☎  22:31, December 16, 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm definitely getting involved. --Pluto2 (talk) 22:39, December 16, 2016 (UTC)
 * Shame this wiki isn't run like a proper wiki, by community decision making, but exists solely to boost the ego of one admin with an agenda... Obverse ☎  15:09, December 28, 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment aimed at Obverse: Probably shouldn't butt in but that comment obverse is a personal attack. I can only suggest you remove it. I don't know which admin you're referring too but none of what you've said applies to any admin. I'm suggesting it, merely on a user to user basis, to warn you that you'll probably end up getting blocked under Tardis:No personal attacks. I wish you all the best. - Sir DENCH-and-PALMER   ☎  18:41, December 28, 2016 (UTC)
 * Sorry, it was aimed at CzechOut, a sad little man who appears to run this place like a personal fiefdom and takes no notice of either common sense, reasoned argument or, frankly, the way a wiki is supposed to be run. Being blocked from a site ruled by him, with a handful of regular posters all scared of his pettiness - no huge deal. (this is not aimed at you byw as you seem to be a sensible sort of person - I admire your patience working for - sorry, with - such a pathetic individual.)  But in reality when every poster on a Wiki inclusion thread supports inclusion, and covers - in detail - every point required for inclusion, and one admin comes along an unilaterally closes down all discussion on the basis that (a) it'd be hard for him to correct his initial mistake and (b) it'll please those who want less content on the wiki - well, that wiki is effectively a useless space. Please understand, I have no interest really in whether Fp is on this wiki or not from a publishing POV - it'll not lead to one more sale or one more reader, but I've never been a fan of tiny fish in little ponds throwing their weight about. Obverse  ☎  22:29, December 28, 2016 (UTC)
 * Look. I'm upset that FP hasn't been included - really - I'm really upset. But attacking someone seems unfair. Yes the discussion was long and well backed up with evidence. Yes the end result was really upsetting. However CzechOut doesn't "run" the wiki, the admins do. I mean some non admins help more than some of the admins such as OS12, CoT and I.


 * CzechOut's reasons weren't what I expected but insulting him is unwarranted and darned unfair. I here propose that you delete your last comment. Not in fear that you'll get banned but so User:CzechOut doesn't have to read those vile comments.


 * On a brighter not, thanks for publishing FP. You've made a lot of Who fans happy. - Sir DENCH-and-PALMER   ☎  22:39, December 28, 2016 (UTC)

Re: Vienna
I'll tell you what User:Fwhiffahder said, since I deleted both his post and yours. He asked you to not derail the topic of the thread. I suggest you read both Tardis:Forum policy and Tardis:Discussion policy. And just to let you know, any thread to re-open the issue of Vienna will be deleted. That is a relatively new decision that took over a year to reach, and we will not be re-opening old closed threads just because new users who missed the original decisions want to re-open them. The (very few) admins on this wiki have too much work to do on the wiki and don't wish to keep having to rehash old decisions. Thanks for your attention. Shambala108 ☎  02:21, December 19, 2016 (UTC)
 * Okay, sorry. Mind commenting on the Faction Paradox thread again? --Pluto2 (talk) 02:23, December 19, 2016 (UTC)


 * There were a ton of new posts added yesterday when I was not available, and I need some time to read all those before posting. In addition, since both User:CzechOut and User:Tangerineduel ruled against FP in the original forum threads, they should both be consulted here as very-senior admins who understand Tardis:Valid sources better than anyone who has yet commented on that issue. Shambala108 ☎  02:32, December 19, 2016 (UTC)


 * That's okay! --Pluto2 (talk) 02:33, December 19, 2016 (UTC)

Unplaced IW stories
It's Iris. Making a timeline page at all shows remarkable stupidity on my part. It can be very difficult (read: deliberately impossible) to tell when a story is set. But, for a breakdown:
 * A Hundred Words from a Civil War just says in the narration that Iris tried to get into the City. It could just be placed around Library Pictures, since they're in the same anthology.
 * From Dog Days of Summer to God Engine Rhapsody are stories from Fifteen, which contains a variety of difficult-to-identify Irises.
 * The last few are from The Perennial Miss Wildthyme. It also contains several Irises. I'm reading through it right now and updating the page as I go. Fwhiffahder ☎  19:56, December 20, 2016 (UTC)

Dorian Gray
If there's one thing that is certain, it's that his name is "Gray" with an "a," not "Grey" with an "e." And I don't know why you're bringing this up. The inclusion thread was closed a while back. And the series has ended with a contradiction of Shades of Gray. Fwhiffahder ☎  19:19, December 22, 2016 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I'm an idiot! --Pluto2 (talk) 19:20, December 22, 2016 (UTC)

Black Mould/Night Witch
The Doctor (Battlefield) says The Collection is that Doctor, The Collection says it's definitely Muldwych, and I think Happy Endings says that Muldwych is the same Doctor who was Merlin. He ages a ton in Birthright if I remember right. Fwhiffahder ☎  00:35, December 23, 2016 (UTC)

FP thread
You said "So I take it this debate will probably continue past Christmas?"

Yes, it looks like it will. These things are never resolved quickly. Please stop trying to push it, and just wait. It's been years since FP was banished. There's no great urgency now. Fwhiffahder ☎  03:04, December 23, 2016 (UTC)


 * Seconded. NateBumber ☎  03:59, December 23, 2016 (UTC)
 * Hey :) I'm really sorry you're disappointed in the decision. I can understand that, and I greatly sympathise. The thing is, I myself am frustrated that I can't really hold out the option of re-merging. But some things are just harder to do correctly on a wiki than you'd think.


 * Re-reading the thread won't change the fact that there are genuine technical difficulties with re-merging.


 * But please believe me when I say that there's no good reason that high quality, well-linked articles can't be created at the FP Wiki. Nate suggested that an option was to give help in establishing a better community at FP, and I'm perfectly prepared to do that, as, I imagine, would be other admin.


 * This decision doesn't mean that the thread has been in vain. Instead, I hope it serves as a catalyst for newfound growth at the FP Wiki, by highlighting FP content for the first time in the DWUs existence at Fandom/Wikia. I think, too, that the thread has given a lot of helpful and specific relief to the nature of the editing that needs to happen to get the ball rolling. 09:52: Wed 28 Dec 2016

FP
Well if it's allowed here. I'll surely help you. DENCH-and-PALMER 09:52, December 30, 2016 (UTC)

FP short stories
I'll definitely create some of those articles.

Though I'll have to do it tomorrow when I'm on a computer rather than an iPad as it takes longer and it's harder to work. Denchen  ☎  19:23, January 1, 2017 (UTC)

Morbius Doctors Pictures
Thanks for you edits on the Morbius Doctors pages. Since you did it for the Fifth Doctor can you add pictures of the other Doctors individually. Thanks. --86.160.234.226talk to me 20:28, January 10, 2017 (UTC)

Image width
All images uploaded to the wiki must be at least 250 pixels wide. Thanks! 03:59, January 11, 2017 (UTC)

Vandalism on someone else's user page
Thank you for making note of the vandalism done at User:PicassoAndPringles' user page. However, as the rule goes, non-admins should never edit the user page of another, even in these cases. To quote from T:USER OTHER:
 * "If you notice that someone else's user page has been vandalised, please do not revert on your own initiative. Instead, please alert an admin. Admin have greater powers to notice editing patterns, and so are in a better position to identify the seriousness of the vandalism."

That said, your efforts are appreciated. But do try to keep this in mind in the future. 01:47, January 19, 2017 (UTC)

Re:War Chief
The fact that Dicks described the War Chief the same way he described the Master is very interesting, why didn't you put it in the BHS section? (Are you saving it for a debate? ) The fact that I think part of the point that the point is trying to make is that various "spin-offs" have shown that both the Monk and the Master were in completely different situations at the time of the Second Doctor's trial. Also, you should never delete an entire chunk of information because of an easy-to-fix wording problem (even if it conflicts with your vision of the DWU). CoT    ?  03:08, January 22, 2017 (UTC)


 * Sorry, I don't really know anything about Divided Loyalties aside from it apparently being the worst Dr Who story ever. That said, can you really fault Gary Russell for having excessive continuity? It's as natural to him as breathing air.  CoT     ?  03:25, January 22, 2017 (UTC)


 * Where might I find this server? I've never used discord before and am downloading it now. What do I do afterwards? CoT     ?  03:43, January 22, 2017 (UTC)

FP connection to DW
Hi, in the page Toy Story (short story) you've created you made a lot of connections that are not obvious to an outside observer like myself: the Pilot is the Eighth Doctor, the Male Companion is Fitz Kreiner, the Ship is The Doctor's TARDIS.

In Thread:208233 it is stated that such connections are only allowed "if and only if it's explicitly stated in-text that a Faction Paradox character or concept is a Doctor Who character or concept".

There is an ongoing discussion at Thread:209869 regarding the kind of evidence in existence supporting the statement that Lolita and the Doctor's TARDIS are sisters (discussion prompted by your edit to the Doctor's TARDIS webpage I might add). Thus, I would appreciate it if you could quote on that thread the in-text evidence for the connections you made. Thank you in advance. Amorkuz ☎  11:51, January 22, 2017 (UTC)

Re: Doctor Who Unbound
Hey Pluto2. When I reverted your edits on The Innocents (short story) I had not seen that forum's decision. I was aware of it's existance, and, though I did not reply on it, I followed (most of) it. I just had not seen it was closed in favour of including the rest of the Unbound series (which I 100% agreed with). Sorry for not double-checking before reverting your edits. No hard feelings though, right? OncomingStorm12th ☎  21:56, January 23, 2017 (UTC)
