oops
Accidentally reverted you edit to Trickster's Brigade.--Skittles the hog-- Talk 21:57, February 4, 2011 (UTC)

Policy
Just curious; the current edit war policy is '4 reverts in 36 hours', right? However, I'm wondering if we could add a statement about a min/max time, like saying '2 reverts' as a min. and a notice about 'gaming the system' or getting around the current policy. My goal here is to restrict the possibility of future edits wars. -- Bold  Clone  22:31, February 4, 2011 (UTC)

K9
Hey, no big thing, but you probably need to cast a glance over Tardis:K9 naming convention, especially focussing on the exceptions listed. K-9's Finest Hour should remain hyphenated, even though K9 generally is unhyphenated. Also, if you have questions about making a move/delete/change, as you apparently did, it does no harm asking other admin. You're not expected to know everything just because someone changed your user flag :)

Guide for new admins
I've created a guide: Tardis:Guide for new administrators it includes a few things I've learnt along the way and some useful information which you may already know or find out as you work your way around as an admin. --Tangerineduel / talk 14:04, February 5, 2011 (UTC)

Create protecting and other protection
Hey, best not to cascade protect any article, this protects everything that's linked on that page. So say The Pandorica Opens is cascade protected this would mean Daleks, Sontarans, Judoon, 1963, 1890 and every other link is also protected. (According to the delete log you cascade protected the Dorium page)

Protecting a page and then deleting it wipes the protection from the page, I've create-protected the page you deleted/restores/protected/deleted as I assumed that was where you were trying to go with it. Any questions please ask. --Tangerineduel / talk 16:46, February 6, 2011 (UTC)

???
Why are you creating all these X stories categories. The Terrible Zodin has never appeared in Doctor Who so they are not stories regarding her.--Skittles the hog-- Talk 19:34, February 6, 2011 (UTC)

You must have misread the article, it does say "Mentions". The Terrible Zodin is a sort of Running Joke. Heard of but never seen.--Skittles the hog-- Talk 19:41, February 6, 2011 (UTC)

On another unrelated topic, when you click the arrow to file a category. Instead of filling under *, hit the spacebar so that it files under [blank]. Petty, I know, but better.--Skittles the hog-- Talk 19:47, February 6, 2011 (UTC)

Creating protecting
After I left the message to you I had a think and I've now added a section called "How to create protect pages" to the Tardis:Guide for new administrators with images to show the process of going about it, hope it helps. It used to be less complicated, but following Wikia's re-design there's these extra steps to get away from the edit box. --Tangerineduel / talk 13:13, February 7, 2011 (UTC)
