Re: The Daft Dimension
A pleasure to see a new user going into such details and minutiae of dabbing policy! It's worth noting that the Daft Dimension naming scheme is identical to the one used for the Quinn & Howett Doctor Who? stories, which is massive enough that even if it isn't currently recorded in policy, the way of translating "Doctor Who? (DWM 103 comic story)" into a "(Doctor Who? 103)" dab term can, by now, be considered "current policy" in th T:BOUND sense of the term.

Beyond that, I'm sure people like User:Borisashton will have an opinion on this issue, so you'd best copy over the text of your message to Talk:The Daft Dimension so that more people can participate. I think the current way is fine, personally — IIRC Doctor Who? strips aren't numbered, although I'm not sure if Daft Dimension ones are, so it's easier for readers wanting to track down the story to have the number of the issue, rather than the number of the story itself within the series, since that number is not present anywhere in the actual stories.

T:VS elucidation
Hi! Just spotted User:Bongolium500/Sandbox 3. There are a few points on which you say you are unsure, so let me clarify: Also, although that would in theory be a valid grounding on which to rule it out IMO, Can I Help You? is not currently deemed to be invalid on Rule 1 grounds; after all, we do dab it as a "(short story)" still. Rather, it is provisionally invalid for reasons similar to the Dalek Wars short stories — it's suspected that being too tied in with a "merchandise tie-in" makes it fail Rule 4 for similar reasons to commercials. It was due for a proper inclusion debate when the UCP mishap happened. Scrooge MacDuck ☎  19:27, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
 * A work which passes Rules 2 and 3 (commercially licensed by a DWU copyright-holder, and officially released), but fails Rule 1 (being a story) and Rule 4 (being meant to be set in the DWU), would be covered-as-invalid. A non-narrative parody gamebook, for example. The Universe Marathon may count: it's licensed and released, but it's a parody and has a branching narrative, so it's invalid.
 * A work with passes Rules 2 (licensed) and 4 (meant to be set in the DWU), but fails Rule 1 (being a story) and Rule 3 (having been officially released)… Or a work which passes Rule 2 (licensed) but fails the other three little rules… That depends on what you mean by "failing Rule 3". Obviously T:SPOIL applies to these things, as it does to everything. But if we had information about a cancelled licensed, non-narrative Doctor Who work, then I think we would have an unprod page on that work. I don't know that the case has ever come up, but in theory we could.

Daft Dimension numbering
Please do not change the citations in the (COMIC: The Daft Dimension 477) format. This is used on hundreds of pages, potentially thousands, across the Wiki to efficiently cite individual installments of Doctor Who? and The Daft Dimension, and even if I agreed that these citations aren't really proper, T:BOUND would apply for such a wide-ranging change. Really, this goes hand in hand with the dabbing issue we discussed two months ago (see above). Scrooge MacDuck ☎  10:50, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

Comments on your Sandboxes
I just wanted to say that your citation template proposal is easily the coolest and most impactful idea I've ever seen proposed on the wiki. I understand it will take significant effort and reformatting to get it working with Template:Infobox Story etc, but I commit myself to doing what I can to facilitate its implementation, if/when it's approved. In the meantime I look forward to watching more of your brainstorming on this topic! – n8 (☎) 16:13, 15 June 2021 (UTC)

Template
Yes, certainly, if you need it to continue your excellent work on new templates. But, of course, don't start using it on pages in the main namespace unless it's been approved and renamed to something less "placeholder"y. Thank you for asking first, anyway! Scrooge MacDuck ☎  18:05, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

Connection tree
Hi Bongolium,

I think that your sandbox showing how various series connect is really impressive. I have a suggestion for the Periodic Adventures of Señor 105 section, I think that it would be better to swap out the "Excelis Saga" for the Main Range and then have that part connect to Iris and then The Brenda and Effie Mysteries (series) underneath (as Iris appeared in several Main Range releases and Brenda appeared in The Boy That Time Forgot (audio story)).

Just a suggestion, but I think that you're doing great and I can't wait to see more. RadMatter ☎  11:27, 3 August 2021 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the encouragement! I have made a small tree at User:RadMatter/Sandbox 1 using your original template to show how most of Paul Magrs/George Mann's series interact. RadMatter ☎  23:07, 3 August 2021 (UTC)


 * I have again expanded my own tree, with help from your own.


 * It would be good if we were able to somehow incorporate the Virgin New Adventures, as they spun off into both the Bernice Summerfield (series) (which contained a part of the Excelis Saga) and Cwej: The Series (which featured an appearance by Iris in Down the Middle). RadMatter ☎  11:47, 4 August 2021 (UTC)

Which of the placements on my tree do you disagree with, if you don't mind saying? RadMatter ☎  15:39, 4 August 2021 (UTC)

Tree limitations
Bongo, you might be interested in some work I've done at User:NateBumber/Sandbox2 based on your character family trees – I think I've found a pretty good way to represent the ambiguity of Orson Pink's relationship with Danny and Clara, as well as the Doctor's multiple possible parentages – although I've leaned into speculation and invalid sources for that one! Thanks for revitalizing this template, I think we could do really cool things with it. – n8 (☎) 13:11, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the kind words! I've just reorganized the page to more clearly present my two different ideas and their pros and cons. To summarize, one is more rigid and requires extra tiles, and the other is more flexible but would require resurrecting the old-style "VNA: Lungbarrow" prefixes, which were abandoned for a reason.


 * I've given some thought to mobile users, who (despite T:DESK WINS) make up a majority of wiki readers. But I don't think it's an insurmountable obstacle, as long as each tree is just an alternate way of rendering information already available on the page, so mobile readers aren't actually be missing out on any core info. Thinking ahead … well, you know more about templates than I do: would it be possible to modify so it doesn't even try to render the tree in mobile view, or so it adds an indicator that the page should be viewed on desktop? From my naive perspective, this seems more achievable than actually making  work for mobile. – n8 (☎) 16:41, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I definitely hear what you're saying regarding the different versions: a degree of flexibility is definitely necessary, and multiple formats can and should exist and interact, differentiated by their accompanying keys. The fact that even ""serious"" fans don't know the title of every story in each series is definitely why I started using prefixes in the first place (series-less stories just wouldn't get them I guess). I am an remain a superfan of your citation template idea, so incorporating it here seems like it would be a perfect fit.


 * And wow, you found out how to add shapes very quickly! :) Is it possible to The concept in my charts is that dotted lines can be merged / absorbed into filled lines sometimes, so I think the missing squares in my charts rely on a horizontal dashed line being able to turn solid when it meets a vertical solid line. Is that remotely possible? – n8 (☎) 19:54, 6 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, those are perfect! If I may, I'd also suggest ones where the vertical line stops halfway / doesn't continue through to the bottom. I'd do it myself but ... I have no idea how you're doing it! – n8 (☎) 14:10, 9 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Those are perfect, and as you can see in my newly-updated Sandbox2, they make my "Proposal 1" work effectively. Thank you again! – n8 (☎) 13:04, 11 August 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for the notification! I've removed my links to your tree sandbox. I also saw that you mentioned at User:Najawin/Sandbox 5 that you'd like a forum debate about using on more pages. Do you really think the forums would be necessary for that change? I don't think there was ever a debate about using on story pages; someone just started doing it, and it works great. Maybe getting a thumbs up from an admin would be nice, but as I see it, there isn't anything stopping us from just going ahead and sticking them on pages. – n8 (☎) 16:57, 14 September 2021 (UTC)

Some of your recent changes and proposals
Hey there! I see you've been pretty busy around here, and we all thank you for your creativity. Coupla pooints, though. We've been striving around here for years to make the CSS increasinlyh simplified. Your recent effortts in Fandomdesktop.css and .js have therefore been deleted. This created a massively confusing situation whereby the less technically-minded amongst our admin staff wouldn't have been able to easily locate many things that should have been easily presented by the Theme Designer. A good example: the background banner. This should only be inserted via ThemeDesigner, and never by CSS. I appreciate that you might have picked up some bad advice about this, and that you meant no harm, but all backgrounds must be applied by TD only.

Additionally, Fandomdesktop.css, despite its name, is best used for helping historical Gamepedia wikis better align with Fandom ones, since those wikis have long had user-manipulatable css and js that works for the mobile skin, and so those wikis can have different styling.

Obviously, it's possible to use Fandomdesktop on a historically Fandom wiki, but we shouldn't be doing that here. See, what happens is that this would split the CSS tree by having two style sheets at the same load level. That immediately doubles the complexity of the code. And if you start putting the same code on both style sheets, then page load times could be impacted -- much less the fact that you then have a harder time finding the declaration you want to change.

So the idea for the basic structure of the pages is to have everything that could impact every single page of the wiki in MediaWiki:Common.css, and then to have several specific sub style pages linking off from that, such as MediaWiki:Infoboxes.css.

Finally, I do wanna stop you on your development path to the automated User:Bongolium500/Sandbox 5. Over the years we've made several such stabs at this, and this thing you've called merely an "issue" is non-trivial:


 * According to MediaWiki's website, this can be confusing for users using a screen reader. Every collapsible is open for a short amount of time while the page loads before closing which, on a larger page using this a lot, would cause the page to jump a lot.

We've taken a pretty firm stance here over the years to keep the site as broadly usable as possible, and we fear that this would create chaos on longer pages for people who rely on a screenreader. So we can't do this.

Additionally there's a potentially Fandom-wide issue with this:
 * For this to work at all, a lot of prior work needs to be done with Semantic MediaWiki annotations. By far the best solution (in terms of future-proofing and best practises) is to update Infobox Story.

Fandom's version of SMW is no longer available to wikis that don't have it enabled -- and for good cause. Calc-intensive operations like this have an impact across the network, so we really can't do this. This is a minor burden -- typing out the abbreviations for media types -- and we've been doing it fine for years. It's really not worth the expense or load on the whole of SMW across the network.

And finally, we won't be using tooltips around here. While other older wikis, typically covering games, have widespread use of toolips, they aren't trying to install them in 2021 where mobile usage is wwwwaaayyyy higher than it was back in the day. So when you note, correctly, that [tooltips do] not work at all on mobile" -- you're really saying we can't use them at all.

Thanks again for all your work. I hope this doesn't discourage you from contributing other ideas. And I'm really sorry I was out on extended medical leave over the whole summer so that I could have saved you some time. 23:23: Sun 31 Oct 2021

Re: Template test
It would be best if you kept an inuse tag on the pages while you're testing the template on them, until it is certain that what you're trying out does work with no unforeseen side-effects. But with that caveat, unless another admin with more coding knowledge than I has an objection, go ahead! Thank you for asking first. Scrooge MacDuck ⊕ 19:55, 19 November 2021 (UTC)

Hi please note that, while you can always answer user questions, please do not present yourself as an experienced editor to whom other users can come for questions. First, you've been here less than a year, and we do have a lot of more experienced editors.

Infobox inquiry
Hey there Bongo, hope you're doing well! I'm again trying to learn how templates work and again running into problems before I even begin, so I figured I'd check if it would only take you three minutes and I could avoid the trouble. The idea should be pretty simple: a sandbox version of with "prev" and "next" variables so that, for instance, the Fourth Doctor infobox links to Third Doctor and Fifth Doctor. Feel free to tell me to buzz off, but is this the sort of quick project you'd be willing to tackle? – n8 (☎) 17:09, 22 December 2021 (UTC)

Terraqueous Distributor annuals
Hi Bomgolium500,

My name is Mark and I am the editor of the Terraqueous Distributor annuals. Please forgive me not being able to find this function sooner, I have aspergers, so some thinga take me a little longer to work out.

Anyway on the subject if the Dr Who annuals, Terraqueous have become very popular and have featured in magazines such as the official Doctor Who magazine, Starburst, and next months Celestial Toyroom magazine published by DWAS.

We also have official elements in our annuals, the 1997 annual has Stacy And Ssard as the resident companions from the 1996 Radio Times strips.

WTHe 1987 annual officailly featured Sil, 1989 officially featured Mags.

On one communication you mentioned "At the most, it should probably just receive a small note at the bottom of the page."

So as it was onnly a small piece of tect, the last I placed it at the bottom.

Would this be ok, can we come to some kind of compromise.

If you would like to talk further my email is: doctorwhoannual@aol.co.uk

kind regards Mark :-)


 * Hi. Have you seen my reply on your talk page? Generally, editors reply to talk page messages on the other person's talk page. Bongo50 (aka Bongolium500) ☎  20:20, 12 January 2022 (UTC)

have i upset you
Hi Bomgolium500,

If I have upset you, it was not my intention and I am sorry.

MArk :)


 * Hi Mark. You have not upset me at all! If I'm being completely honest, I would quite like the Terraqueous Distributor annuals to be covered here. However, that can only happen if they fall within policy. Generally, people respond to talk page messages on the other person's talk page. However, I feel that you will have a better chance of seeing this message if I place it here. I saw that you provided your email but it is generally better to keep discussions like this on-wiki so that they can be cited in future discussions if needed. It is absolutely vital that you do not remove any of your previous talk page messages. This is why Shambala108 has reverted quite a number of your edits. Please just add any new messages below the original, ideally indented once from the previous message (like this one is). Both me and Scrooge MacDuck left a reply to your original message on your talk page. Have you seen these messages? If not, here is a summary:
 * As per Tardis:Don't wikify your own material, if you are the editor of these annuals, you shouldn't have added information about them to the wiki.
 * Similarly, we are unable to take your word that the annuals contain licensed elements. Do you have some form of external confirmation that you could provide? A Tweet (or similar) from the license holders would probably suffice (I think).
 * Do the licensed elements appear in stories with unlicensed elements? If there are stories featuring only licensed characters and we are able to verify that, those stories would probably be worthy of full coverage.
 * Which issue(s) of Doctor Who Magazine have the annuals been featured in?
 * When you're able, please leave your response under this message, indented twice. Again, I would like to reiterate that I you have not upset me in the slightest. While you have made a few mistakes, these are completely understandable for a new editor to make. Bongo50 (aka Bongolium500) ☎  18:10, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

Continuity
Relevant standards are hardly well formalised, so I don't presently feel a compulsion to hash out better guidelines on any particular talk page, never mind make the undertaking necessary to see such made concrete; all the same, asserting your lack of clarity as justification for an intervention and ensuring your finality before "suggesting" a dialogue is a desperately poor definition of good faith policy enforcement. If you are interested in exploring the relevant aporiae, you are welcome to initiate discussion. 106.68.45.20talk to me 02:43, 30 March 2022 (UTC)


 * I'm going to be completely honest and state that I do not understand your reasoning for removing the point. Tardis:Format for audio stories states that continuity is "tie-ins between this audio story and other stories". The way I see it, that is exactly what the contested point is: it is Big Finish tying one of their stories into another by way of a minor reference. I do not see what chronology has to do with it.

Crew template for BBC Wales behind-the-scenes programmes
Hi Bongolium500, over the past two-ish years I've been adding the crew to all the episodes of Doctor Who Confidential, Totally Doctor Who, Torchwood Declassified, & Doctor Who Greatest Moments.

I was thinking that really, they should all have a crew template like all the other Wales-era shows, perhaps calling it something like WalesBTS. However I'm not well versed in SMW stuff and wouldn't know where to start making one.

Would it be possible for you to give me some pointers?

 * I think it needs a -style top section for the "heavy hitters", seeing the Execs/Producers/Directors listed with the General production staff just looks odd.
 * The variables "Sound" and "Location Sound" should re-direct to Sound recordist.
 * The variable "Location Cameras" should re-direct to Camera operator.

Counterparts template
Hi. You may have noticed some counterpart templates popping up on pages (such as London and Amy Pond) over the last few months. These display parallel or alternate counterparts of individuals, places, organisations, and in a few cases, species. There are currently a number of individual templates for each character/place etc. but I'm looking at creating a general-purpose template which can be used across all pages to save both time and space in the long run. I was pointed your way by User:NateBumber as apparently you're quite good with template coding. I'm thinking something broadly similar to Template:Looks like which can be used across multiple pages, but which can contain the information found on current counterpart templates, such as Template:London counterparts and Template:Rose Tyler counterparts etc. Let me know if this is something you would be able to help with. Thanks. 66 Seconds ☎  14:58, 22 June 2022 (UTC)


 * That would be great, thanks. We're thinking of just calling it Template:Counterparts. The current ones say "parallel counterparts of [subject]", but it would probably be better if the general one was headed "alternate counterparts of [subject]" - that way it's suitable for both alternate timelines and parallel universes. Basically, just have a go at it and see what you can create. Any questions give me a shout. 66 Seconds ☎  07:43, 23 June 2022 (UTC)

 * I've just tested it on both the Twelfth Doctor and Twelfth Doctor (Shadow World) pages, but there seems to be an issue with it. The display name and the syntax 1/d1 appear to work, but appears to mess up the infobox above in preview mode and glitches when I try to save. Further syntaxes (2/d2, 3/d3 etc.) don't show up, so I'm left with just "Alternate counterparts of Twelfth Doctor: The Doctor's universe" and unable to add anything further. I also tried the premade example on Template:Counterparts, but that seems to have the same issue. Hope that makes sense. Wondering if you have any ideas or can take a look?

SMW
I'm loving your SMW Guide, Help:Semantic MediaWiki is now non-existent and the actual website has a somewhat steep learning curve. I'm curious, can I add SMW tags that end users can't see? For instance, if I wanted to say that Cobweb and Ivory had a tag TheEnemy::Cernunnos that I could query later, distinct from the infobox Enemy field.

Also, you might not be aware, but Eragon has a few Doctor Who references as well, and obviously Transformers robots in disguise has the | largest fictional universe. :> Najawin ☎  08:49, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
