User:SOTO/Forum Archive/Tales from the Tardis/@comment-24894325-20180626104420 It has happened again that material from yet-unreleased stories had leaked into press. In the past, the Whovian community has been quite civil about it. So I hope very few editors need reminding that under no circumstances can any information originating from such links be posted anywhere on the wiki.

Quite apart from the Tardis:Spoiler policy, which prohibits any information about unreleased stories except on one page about an upcoming series, leaked information is not acceptable even there.

This wiki treats leaked videos, scripts, etc. as stolen goods, which they are. We do not trade in stolen goods. Period.

Sharing leaked information is disrespectful to the cast and crew. When Jodie Whittaker had to keep the news of her new role even from the closest friends, spreading information without the consent of the Doctor Who team is the opposite of loving the show. Spreading such information is working against the show and negating the hard work of everyone involved in the show.

It is also disrespectful to other readers of this wiki. Every reader has a choice either to avoid spoilers or to read the page of the next season. However, spoilers there, i.e., information about the upcoming series, should originate from reliable sources. When the showrunner or the BBC makes an announcement, reading it would not rob you of the pleasure of encountering twists as they happen, rather than reading about them in advance and without any context. When materials leak, the leakers cannot possibly know whether a major plot twist will be ruined for everyone. And if you try to post it, you would not know it either.

The new season page is locked for the moment. Please, respect your peers and creators of Doctor Who by keeping any materials distributed improperly out of this wiki. Offenders will be blocked.
