Tardis:About

TARDIS Index File is a free Doctor Who reference website that is being written collaboratively by the readers. Our goal is to become the largest, most reliable, and most up-to-date encyclopedia about everything related to the Doctor Who universe, presenting topics as they might appear if accessed by someone inhabiting that universe, - i.e., treating them as if they were "real." This site is not attempting to copy or replace Wikipedia's Doctor Who WikiProject, but rather to complement it, just as Memory Alpha complements the Star Trek WikiProject on Wikipedia, rather than attempts to copy or replace it.

TARDIS Index File is a Wiki, meaning that any fan may edit any article by clicking on the edit this page link that appears in every wiki article that is not designated as a protected page. This makes it very easy for any fan to share their knowledge and insight of the Doctor Who universe and add to the collected information available.

The project was started in February 2005, by James P. Moore. It was inspired by Wikipedia, a free, open source encyclopedia, and especially by Memory Alpha, a wiki reference site devoted to the Star Trek universe. There are many articles that may be worked on by Doctor Who fans to help our database grow.

All of the site's content is covered by the GNU Free Documentation License.

For any television episode that has aired in the UK, or any novel or other Who-related written, filmed, or recorded material that has been published in that country, that material is considered fair game for inclusion in articles.
