'''Welcome to the 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

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. Josiah Rowe ☎  15:12, January 3, 2018 (UTC)

Spoilers
Please, acquaint yourself with Tardis:Spoiler policy. We define spoilers differently from the everyday usage of the word. Your latest edits offended this policy in two ways: first of all, no images from unreleased stories are allowed. Hence, series pages where spoilers are allowed in text cannot contain any such images because there is no way, technically speaking, to introduce these images within the page only. Secondly, your edit summary provided information that related to something from the unreleased episode. Edit summaries are present in multiple places including "recent edits" list. They are not confined to the series page either. Please make sure you comply with the spoiler policy in the future. It is one of the most often violated and most diligently enforced policies of the wiki. There is no reason for you to risk a block because of that. Amorkuz ☎  09:14, February 21, 2018 (UTC)

Images
A spot check of images uploaded by you and then deleted by admin showed that (as is very common during the first 100 edits) the images violated several of our image policies. Please acquaint yourself with Thread:148148 to avoid this in the future. As for other edits, If you point to a particular one, I could try to explain why it was reverted. In general, the right place to ask admin is not Discussions (most admin do not check there as we have a separate mod for that), but at the talk page of one of Tardis:Administrators.

Deleted page
Actually, I think I can see which deleted page you mean. Generally, I would recommend you to read the edit summary for the deletion, left by the deleting admin. It usually provides an idea of the reason as well as points to a specific admin to ask. In this case, the page "Bow Ship" was deleted because there is already a page for these Time Lord spacecraft at Bowship. Please feel free to improve it if some of your points are missing there.

Page moves
Hi, please note that per Thread:128198 only admins are permitted to move pages on this wiki. Shambala108 ☎  12:11, April 10, 2018 (UTC)

Cast lists
I’m glad you showed interest in those. However, before continuing editing them, please familiarise yourself with Tardis:Cast lists, Tardis:Cast and crew lists and T:CREW. Thank you. Amorkuz ☎  15:39, April 17, 2018 (UTC)

Cliffhanger lists
You are right that we don't have all the audio cliffhangers. This is something we can work on. However, it is hardly problematic to have them all on one page. After all the List of televised cliffhangers contains cliffhangers for all TV shows since 1963 and works without any problems. That page is 818 lines, which is smaller than 1191 lines of Eleventh Doctor or 1268 lines of Tenth Doctor. If the pages in question become significantly longer, say, more than 10k lines, we may return to this question. But for now there is nothing that would prevent these pages from efficient functioning. Especially given that they get natural subsections, making navigation easy through contents. Amorkuz ☎  19:35, April 22, 2018 (UTC)

Formatting tip
Hey, I noticed you have an interest in adding to the "continuity" section of stories. I'm dropping by to leave a formatting tip: I've noticed in a few pages that you tend to use  when sourcing info, like in this edit. The tip is that this is not necessary; simply typing : (putting the comma outside the prefix link) is the correct/preferred format. Hope this helps, and good editing :) OncomingStorm12th ☎  23:11, April 27, 2018 (UTC)

Patience and categories
Please, do not create new pages in place of existing ones in the queue for renaming. It creates a mess and denies credit to all editors who worked on the original page. Note that the history of changes is an important document that cannot be retained if you just create a duplicate yourself.

If you really are in a hurry to get the renaming done, please, provide me with a time stamp of the dialogue in the story where "Ellis" is stated as their name. I do not have time to relisten to all 2 hours of it, but could quickly check a specific place. Note also that renames are quality controlled by admin, which is why the rename will not happen until one of us has time to verify the name.

Thirdly, please remember that every page you create requires at least one category (stubs does not count). Try to look at similar pages to see what suits it best.

Happy editing. Amorkuz ☎  21:29, May 8, 2018 (UTC)

Companion edits
Hi, I've been spot-checking your rewrites of leads of various types of articles and appreciate your hard work on this. But with companions, a course correction is needed. On this wiki, we have a strict separation between Tardis:In-universe perspective and Tardis:Out-of-universe perspective. You cannot write that someone is a companion of the Doctor and that they were portrayed by some actor in the same part of the article. Each article is either in-universe, in which case actors belong only in infobox and "Behind the scenes" section or the article is written entirely from the out-of-universe perspective. I would appreciate it if you could go over your recent edits, especially of in-universe pages and removed real-world information you've added. Thank you in advance.
