User talk:Skittles the hog

Tangerineduel
I've changed the sci-fi footer, you might also want to put it on the wikia Entertainment page.

I don't own this wikia (I don't think anyone owns it). I'm just here a lot. This should outline the basics of user access and what not. --Tangerineduel 14:29, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

DWA
Hi, I've just added to the forum, if you want to have a look, it's basically my defence to creating the article Doctor Who Adventures (Magazine), I only mentioned it as I saw you have shown an interest. Hope its ok. The Librarian 00:21, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

Re: Problem Report; Dalek Sec
If you want to open up a dialogue about the article please put it in the page's Talk page rather than the problem report, disputes over the article's validity should be in the Talk. --Tangerineduel 05:16, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Previous/Next Entries
In regards to your edits made for Return of the Daleks and Return to Web Planet, the Previous Story/Next Story entries in the Audiodrama infoboxes refer to the next RELEASED episode by Big Finish, not the next story for that particular Doctor. The Timeline section is used to indicate the previous/next story for a specific Doctor. Just thought I'd give a heads-up in case there was any confusion there.--Colleyd 22:41, 21 February 2008 (UTC)Woof.

Moving/Renaming articles
Hi. In moving information around regarding Black Orchid (TV story) you have effectively removed all the history pertaining to this article. Please use the move function to move pages to preserve the history of said pages (rather than copying the pages' content from one article to another). I've undone and fixed the edits so the page history remains intact. --Tangerineduel 15:45, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

Donna Noble
Hello there, I was just wondering where you got the info that Donna leaves in the finale from. If this is not confirmed, then it should not go in untill it has. Jack's the man - 16:06, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Character details in novels
Please stop removing the character details in the novels. --Tangerineduel 17:20, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I see that overkill is better with regards to the novel character details. Personally I don't believe it's necessary. --Tangerineduel 12:51, 14 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Ignoring the whole overkill of all the dot points, which is I think still way overkill (ie over the top, too much, too many dot points) for the moment. Why remove the listing for the Doctor and actually listing Eighth Doctor or whatever, in the TV stories or whatever it says just the Doctor with the actual Doctor behind the wiki links, the novels were meant to be the same (as the Big Finish, TV stories etc), so why in this big edit has this changed? The Doctor is listed Seventh Doctor or whatever in the infobox, but as the character list and details is talking about the character of the Doctor, it should be just listed as X Doctor|The Doctor. --Tangerineduel 16:38, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Re talk page - Novels
No I don't think you should re-do all the other novels as I've said from the outset that it hasn't been necessary (and maintained that it looks a bit overkill with all the dot points), but...this is a wikipedia and any edits can be done/redone/undone so if you really believe that it's totally necessary to introduce that amount of bullet points...just maintain the layout and keep a gap between the characters to encourage future edits (see The Witch Hunters for an example, leaving spaces between the bullet points doesn't alter the overall appearance) For the list of novel abbreviations see Tardis:List of prefixes (which can be found by going to any of the abbreviations clicking the abbreviations category and it's in there), see also the Tardis:Publication Index List (found in the Help:Contents). --Tangerineduel 15:50, 15 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Basically if you have to I'm not immediately going to change any edits... probably. But as I've said, and will continue to say, when the pages are set out, with information below each character it doesn't look "messy" No Future is a fine enough example, and I'll also continue to say I think it's an overkill or bullet points. --Tangerineduel 16:05, 15 May 2008 (UTC)


 * The character notes are just for the novels and the short stories, as they are the pages that unlike the others don't have cast just characters. Also more comes through about the characters in text hence the extra details in those pages for TV/audio drama it's contained the references, but the novels a wholly more in-universe detailed affair. --Tangerineduel 16:51, 15 May 2008 (UTC)


 * I probably could have, but I like to give reasons for things, just to prempt the possibility of questions. --Tangerineduel 06:15, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

On the novels pages, especially relating to the MA novels, the X novel occurs between X story and X story. Stop removing it, leave it alone. It's there because that's what is printed on the back of the novels, however it is not the be all and end all of the timeline, often there are stories inserted or that fit in between the novel and the TV stories hence all the information is presented. --Tangerineduel 13:11, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
