User talk:Chaos Locust

'''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

Actor images
Hi :) Thanks for trying to help us out with illustrating images of actors.  However, please do not illustrate actor pages with screenshots from the episodes in which they appear.  This is a violation of local image rules.  Instead, we're looking for images which depict the actor as themselves, preferably from their agency photos or public events, such as premieres.  Thanks again for your help, and please don't be afraid to keep on contributing.  You're very welcome on our TARDIS team! :)   03:42: Thu 12 Dec 2013
 * Hi again :) The above weren't the only rules that apply to actor images.  Like any other images on our site, the following apply:


 * A more complete list can be found at our image cheat sheet. Also, you're invited to read our guide to good images so that you can see some practical illustrations of the kind of images that work best here.


 * Why do we have all these rules? Because Doctor Who is a fifty year-old subject that has generated images in every format that has existed since the 1960s. It's therefore important that we try to hit a common standard, and doing so requires several rules in order to accommodate all the ways in which images have been captured in that time.


 * Thanks very much for your continued work; several of your more recent uploads were just fine!  00:08: Sat 14 Dec 2013


 * I will look over the rest of the rules to ensure that I am following protocol with my edit's Chaos Locust ☎  20:34, December 14, 2013 (UTC)

Hi! Please not the last point in the box above: files must be appropriately licensed. Many (if not all) of your uploads don't have licenses on them. This is a very important rule on this wiki. I haven't deleted your images yet because I wanted to give you a chance to put a license on them. If you fail to do so, I will have to delete them. Thanks!

 * Heya :) Really need for you to add the most appropriate of our copyright tags when you upload pictures.  It's important to properly source pictures and to make sure we're picking a picture that has a reasonable fair use rationale — or, better, one that's in the public domain or is under a creative commons license.  Pictures without a copyright license are regularly deleted by bot, so make sure your pic is licensed.  03:56: Mon 16 Dec 2013
