Test
This is a test. × SOTO  ( ☎ / ✍ / ↯ ) 09:23, March 15, 2014 (UTC)
 * This is another test. I'm starting to consider maybe writing something a bit less boring as a test. Maybe next time. 09:31, March 15, 2014 (UTC)

Question
Cane we able to do image galleries here? LunarSolar ☎  20:33, May 8, 2014 (UTC)

Series 8
Hey, I just wanted to remind you to be careful when posting edit summaries for the Series 8 page. Any spoilers in the edit summary will show up in both "recent changes" and "wiki activity". Thanks. Shambala108 ☎  22:54, May 30, 2014 (UTC)

Series 8
Episode 2's title is confirmed, please add it to the series 8 page. I've provided a citation (Radio Times) on Talk:Series 8 (Doctor Who).
 * The rest of the episode titles have been revealed on the BBC website. Link on the Series 8 talk page like last time.
 * Just posted a link to episode 1's credits at Talk:Series 8 (Doctor Who).
 * At this point, we're so close to actual transmission that it makes little sense not to wait to see the credits as transmitted. This, after all, is the admonishment of T:CREW. I wouldn't even bother with detailed, per-episode maintenance of the series 8 page, but instead focus on the episode pages themselves as those eps are transmitted. 15:24: Tue 19 Aug 2014

Danny Pink
I tried to create a page for Danny Pink, as he has now been seen in a broadcast episode, but it says that the page is still locked, and it was you who locked it. Any chance it can now be unlocked? Geek Mythology ☎  12:08, August 31, 2014 (UTC)

Video request
Hey, SOTO, do you mind uploading [this video] for the page The Time of the Doctor (TV story)? I put it on the video recommendations page a couple months ago but it was overlooked. Thanks. --TARDIS2468 ☎  11:32, December 27, 2014 (UTC)

Hi I was wondering if I could ask about the standard preloads it looks like a great tool and I have a Wikia but I am not sure how I could added. I realise this isn't a Tardis Wikia matter but if you can assist me. I would be most grateful. Thanks Kelvin 101 ☎

Home media/video
How is the creation of home media/video pages for the televised stories project going? Ebyabe  (talk)  17:58, April 18, 2015 (UTC)

Bot edits
Hi! I just wanted to let you know that I am undoing some of your bot work. Specifically, I am correcting the grammar of your edits on the "date (releases)" pages. Leaving off the word "the" in front of the publications/magazines names is poor grammar. Just try saying some of these sentences to yourself out loud and you'll realize how odd they sound.

I know that CzechOut spent a lot of time giving you instructions on these pages, and that he specifically told you to keep the items short, but he was referring to the amount of information you were to provide, not the grammar. In fact, I've found two examples where he specifically places the word "the" in front of the phrase "TV comic". You can find the examples on User talk:SmallerOnTheOutside/Archive 3, dated Jun 23, 2013, and Thread:121256, dated Feb 22, 2013.

Also, I have to say it would have been nice if you had let me know that you were using your bot to undo the 365 pages that I had fixed a few months previously. Didn't you even wonder why I was making those particular edits? Thanks. Shambala108 ☎  01:19, May 13, 2015 (UTC)

Covers
Hi! On looking over Special:Wantedcategories, I noticed that all but 100 of the 365 wanted categories are of the format "(episode name) (medium) covers". Do you have plans for these uncreated categories? It's been over a year for most of them, and the categories should either be deleted or created, since there are so many images that have these non-existent categories. Thanks.

DWU Forum Invite
Hey SOTO! I wanted to stop by and invite you to be a part of Thread:180396, where we're currently discussing if the DWU prefix does or does not well-represent our invalid policy. We've got some good input, but barely anything from admins. OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 19:37, October 8, 2015 (UTC)

If you have time, is there any chance that you could stop by Thread:176459? As you asked, I have delivered a someone more clear layout of the Doctor Who levels and how the game play works, and the discussion with if it is valid or not is again open, but traffic has died down on the page... OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 21:56, October 14, 2015 (UTC)

Re: unnamed planets
Actually I asked CzechOut to do it because he was part of the original discussion and he was the one who clarified the issue. Shambala108 ☎  13:35, October 29, 2015 (UTC)

Bot edits
Hi! The bot edits adding the dab term to the Planet pages needs to be fixed. The closing parentheses was left out. User:Ebyabe fixed a few of them (see, for example, Planet (Prisoners of the Kleptons)), but you'll need to correct the rest of them. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎  03:02, October 30, 2015 (UTC)

OttselSpy25 block
Re your block of User:OttselSpy25, please consider the following points: Thanks for reading these points, and I just have to say I strongly suggest you rescind your block. Shambala108 ☎  20:12, December 5, 2015 (UTC)
 * When I blocked him for six months, it was for violating Tardis:No personal attacks. Are you trying to suggest that what he's done now is twice as worse as a personal attack?
 * Ever since he's been back from the six month block, his behavior in forums/talk pages has drastically improved. He obviously learned from that block.
 * I see nothing wrong with his posts at Thread:185980. He brought up a new story that has to be considered, and at every point stated that adverts are against our policies. Just because he disagrees with policy doesn't mean he deserves a block.
 * At Thread:178134 he asked a legitimate question to clarify a situation. There's nothing blockable about trying to clarify a new decision.
 * I see nothing wrong with his posts in Thread:183627. The forum posts get pretty heated, and if you're going to block OS25 for a year for what he says, then there are several others who you should block too. To single him out is unfair.
 * I am on this wiki every day, and I am quite familiar with the work of our regular users. OS25 has been making tons of useful, valid contributions to this wiki — forums, talk pages, articles, image uploads. Do you really think it helps the wiki to block such a user for so long? I've let pass several minor offenses by various users because to block them would ultimately hurt the wiki. I suggest you read/re-read Forum:What about Bob?.
 * I feel I have to remind you that as a non-admin you committed several violations of Tardis:Spoiler policy, and you were only blocked for one hour total. In fact, on your third (or thereabouts) violation, you and User:CzechOut and I met in chat where he convinced me not to block you for that offense. Surely you can show the same latitude that you were shown?
