Times, they are a-changin'

The wiki is undergoing a complete facelift. As the new style sheet is being implemented, you may see some untidy signs of construction. Thanks for your patience as we remodel.


 * Page histories are now available under the "edit page" menus. This adds another convenient location for checking the history of a page, in addition to the history drop-down on the top left of most pages, and the tool under MyTools.  This re-adds a history link to user pages in particular, which had theirs removed when Wikia radically redsigned their base skin.   This new feature may not work in all browsers, but it does in Firefox and other Mozilla-based browsers.  It does not appear to work in Safari.


 * Editors, please be sure to read our Manual of Style's section on article leads, which has recently been expanded. Now there are more examples and suggestions to help you improve your article-writing skills.


 * The terms "First Doctor", "Second Doctor", and the like, 'are now specifically encouraged by our Manual of Style.


 * The word "human" 'should no longer be capitalised.


 * big toc} is now no longer necessary, because its functionality is now hard-coded into the site. All tables of content, on every page where one is automatically generated, are now on the right.


 * Other policy matters are being hotly discussed at the Panopticon, the central hub for discussing matters of wiki maintenance and development.


 * Other fora may be of interest to you, as well, including the reference desk and the Howling.
