River Song
Please do not add tonnes of pictures or add a mass of info into the River Song biography section. The pictures overcrowd the article and only a breif description of what happened to her is needed on the article, with everything non-essential going on the plot section for the episode. Thanks. --Revan\Talk 09:16, May 2, 2011 (UTC)

Do not remove red links, as they may be created by a User at a later date. Thanks. Mini-mitch\talk 15:38, May 19, 2011 (UTC)

Spoilers
Hey there, I've reverted your edit to the talk page of the Cybermen article because the image and topic you added to the page included spoilers. Please note that all spoilers should be kept to the forums and should not be added to talk pages or real articles. Thank you for reading. --Revan\Talk 16:59, May 21, 2011 (UTC)

Please remember to add image licenses when uploading. Additionally, the latest image isn't always the best. For example:

How about this picture? BroadcastCorp. 15:26, May 24, 2011 (UTC)

Has it been artificially brightened?Skittles the hog-- Talk 15:08, May 24, 2011 (UTC)

No! Not at all! I would never do such a thing! I got it from BBC iplayer, and it's from 33:07. Although I think that one is not so bright, so I changed it to another much brighter picture. BroadcastCorp. 15:26, May 24, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, the new one is nice. Good job :) Skittles the hog-- Talk 15:31, May 24, 2011 (UTC)

PNG
See Forum:Tech note: Image use policy change for an explanation. Please also remember to leave talk messages at the bottom of the page which is the general convention for talk messages. I had to go into the history of my talk page to work out where the message was left. Thanks. --Tangerineduel / talk 12:58, May 25, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hiya :) Saw your note on Tangerineduel's page in which you queried why PNG files are discouraged for screenshots.  The main reason is that they're unnecessarily big.  Every photo on our wiki is naturally displayed at no more than 300px width.  We should always be thinking, "What makes the best picture 'at that width''."  And the truth is, we simply don't need the additional resolution to get a good pic at that width.  It's just a waste of space.  It makes pages load more slowly to have a big ol' PNG for a 250px infobox.


 * So that's one thing.


 * Another thing is that PNG files are highly reproducable. A crappy 90k jpg is hardly something you can make a T-shirt from.  But a nice, big PNG — well, it could be perverted to commercial use.


 * Remember, we're only looking for pics that illustrate a topic at no more than 300px. We're not looking for the Best Pic Ever.  14:09:07 Wed 25 May 2011
