Non canon
Why did you replace the nc tag with a load of code? The Thirteenth Doctor 21:07, October 14, 2010 (UTC)

Protection
Because over time wikis develop new policies to help it run better. A discussion was held here where it was agreed that it was better a basic page be created then fully protected to prevent editing. --The Thirteenth Doctor 19:00, October 19, 2010 (UTC)

Tag
I'm not sure what you mean. Also, please make sure it's my actual talk page you post on and not one of the archived pages. Thanks. The Thirteenth Doctor 21:15, October 19, 2010 (UTC)

Feature articles
In the case of older stories where DVDs not being announced the section that deals with 'home video releases' etc should still have information on the video release (on VHS, or for some of the stories betamax and Laserdisc) So for instance The Ice Warriors or The Dæmons could both be put up for feature article because they've both got information in the home video release sections, but neither have been released on DVD. In the case of newer stories, anything from Series 5 backwards shouldn't have any reason not to have DVD information on their pages. However, obviously some newer stories don't have any information like that or may never have any information (such as production errors where there might not be any). I'll make a small amendment to the policy regard this. --Tangerineduel 14:08, November 17, 2010 (UTC)

Suggestion
If you are unhappy about the page policy, why don't you starts a policy in the forums and have a serious discussion about it; instead of just shouting on a talk page? It will make your views been seen by everyone, and you may find that other User may agree with you and you can talk and ask to get other User opinions on the matter as well.

A Christmas Carol talk page
It's been moved, to clear the page in prep for the broadcast and to move what was mostly complaints/discussion concerning the policy rather than concerning the page specifically. You an still find it by going to the current talk page and clicking the 1 in the Archive box on the side. --Tangerineduel 14:09, December 23, 2010 (UTC)

DWA on the main page
All the templates that make up the main page are only semi-protected, so all logged in users can edit them. --Tangerineduel / talk 14:16, January 6, 2011 (UTC)


 * The link you followed was Template:Doctor Who Wiki/Comics? From the main page it links straight into the edit box. I've changed the image to the most recent comic and image of the cover related to that image. I've double checked the template and it's definitely only semi-protected, but I'll check through everything else just to see if there's anything else causing conflict. A user used the Comics template 12 days ago and nothing's changed since then (I'm fairly sure anyways). But I'll check again. Thanks. --Tangerineduel / talk 13:55, January 7, 2011 (UTC)

Series boxes
I didn't ask for the change, and I'm not aware of any other admins requesting the change. A reason may be in the edit summaries of the edited pages. If it's a change you think should be discussed with community involvement, please start a discussion in the Forums. Thanks for contacting me. --Tangerineduel / talk 15:55, January 9, 2011 (UTC)

Main page
The discussion concerning the main page is in part continuing on Forum:New logo or Wordmark. I had a look at the French Doctor Who Wiki and their background is nice, but it ties in with their lighter coloured logo. The logo we're using is linking in with a bolder blue. This isn't to say that the background of the wiki can't be an image like the French DW Wiki is, just that it needs to tie in with everything.

As far as the Phineas and Feb wiki goes, their recent box on the front works as they've only got 4 things to cycle through and all the images are of a uniform shape. We've got quite a few more recent releases with for the most part 2 different sizes in image. With it as it is new readers can explore the whole main page quite simply (it's also relatively simple to edit and see the changes). There's also the stuff on the side of the main page like the feature article, quote of the week and news section that needs to be considered when playing around with elements of the main page. I'm just really not sure if it'd the best way to communicate the vast amount of recent releases we've got on the main page. Thanks. --Tangerineduel / talk 13:43, January 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hey Josh. I noticed your discussion at TD's user page, as I added a note right underneath yours. Great minds seem to think a lot, because I, too, am attracted to the P&F wiki design, and I made a slider thingie for us, too. But, in testing it, all the limitations TD laid out, above, rang true. The DWU just can't be encapsulated in four pictures, which is the technical limit on these slider things.


 * Please do keep on the lookout for other wikia designs that you like, because that was a really good suggestion. Also, please participate in the forum page TD talked about, above. :)  ☎  ✍    16:38, January 23, 2011 (UTC)
