OK I had a bit of a clearout....The Librarian 01:36, January 21, 2010 (UTC)

REMEMBERS

 * Continuity: the story titles should be italicised. (The way to work out references from continuity is. References are in-universe and if there's a lot of them organised under category headings (see...Alien Bodies for an example), continuity is out of universe.)
 * Comic strips: check out Template:Infobox Comic Template:Infobox Other Comics
 * Unknown names: Just put the character in Category:Individuals with unknown names or Category:Humans with unknown names. Also put the individual in whatever additional categories also suit them (not just the unknown name category I mean). Also check out the two categories for the general convention and what not. If there's more than one scientist then it would be 'Female Scientist (Brain Drain)' etc. --Tangerineduel 15:41, September 19, 2009 (UTC)

Lee Sullivan - really nice guy!

 * Hi there - just passing through and thought I'd say hello - a really nice page on BiT. Was very amused that some of the isolated images I couldn't remember drawing :) Speaking of which - back to the drawing board for issue 59! Lee Sullivan 20:45, 8 September 2008 (UTC)


 * I have spoken with Lee on a number of occassions and he has been very helpful in sourcing some of the work and approving use of his artwork. :) A thoroughly decent chap! Im adding more content (hopefully) soon. The Librarian 01:19, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

Just loved the imagery!! Creepy!!

 * To paraphrase the Dalek movies; Every move you make I see, every sound you utter I hear...(sounds a lot less creepy in the 60s Dalek voices with the lights flashing not in sync with the voices). I'm always around here. --Tangerineduel 07:48, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

Passion / Contempt?! :)
I saw your message on TangerineDuel's talk page... Speaking as "some people" - yes, I am. Our pace of growth is much better than the despised mendicants of the Guild Wars Wiki. Bwahahaha! Monkey with a Gun 01:50, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Writer in infoboxes
The infoboxes have gone through an edit or two this year, so now if you don't put a field in like |writer= it won't appear, additionally, if you put a field in like writer, but don't actually put anything into it, it also won't appear. --Tangerineduel 07:04, February 10, 2010 (UTC)

So, just to demonstrate:

Below is the infobox with just the name, writer and next story fields filled in:

Below is the infobox with all the fields filled in.


 * The Librarian, hi. I notice you've added a few writers for DWAM comics. Do you know the writer of #61, Sea-Rah? It's blank. (Don't know it myself. I've never seen the magazine where I live.) (Good work, btw. I don't think I've done any editing since I signed up. So many of the articles are in such a state it's hard to see how one can make much difference.)

Magazine covers
Just select 'any uncategorised magazine covers' all the Radio Times covers currently use that see Category:Magazine covers for them all (if you want to add the tag manually it's .  Thanks. --Tangerineduel 13:50, April 25, 2010 (UTC)


 * Continue using the magazine template and I'll get to it shortly once I've assessed whether to have a 'Radio Times' tag or a BBC Publishing or which way to go with regards to sorting sorting the categories and licencing etc. (I am on it, it'll just take a little while!). --Tangerineduel 17:32, April 25, 2010 (UTC)


 * Your requeest was directly beneath a discussion I was having with TD, so I read it, and have a question. If the Radio Times is published by the BBC — and it is, right? — then isn't what we really need a "BBC Magazines" license that could then be used to encompass RT and DWA?  Put another way, can't we just rewrite the existing DWA license to be a general BBC Magazines licesne, then TD would only have to change the name of the license in the dropdown.

 * Yeah...I was about to point that out. The conversation part. The other bit I've yet to get to.
 * That is a nice idea, but I'd likely duplicate the template so it could categorise differently. --Tangerineduel 13:23, April 26, 2010 (UTC)

Comic story layout
Hey, check out Tardis:Format for Comic stories or see Bad Vibrations which has been correctly edited to the layout. I'm guessing you've got a layout saved somewhere in order to write articles offline (I do that with the DWM issues) as I've been through most of the Tenth Doctor stories moving References up to below characters or above Notes depending on how you look at it. Also the 'Original print details' (the case change is in keeping with the Manual of Style with regards to headings), this is a sub-heading within the Notes section and the 'Publication with page count and closing captions' is indented rather than bracketed (as when it's included it makes the heading very long, and that info is more suited below the sub-heading. Thanks. --Tangerineduel 15:00, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

Adventures Comic Pages
Just a reminder: the Doctor Who Adventures comic stories category is for the stories themselves, not the objects from the stories. Also, the first occurrence of the object's name in the article should be Bold and at the end of the article add the citation for the story. (Prefix: Whatever the Story's Called) -<Azes13 23:54, July 11, 2010 (UTC)

Image issues
I'm guessing you mean the image view that overlays the image over the top of the page you're viewing it on; so the image is in the main view and the page is dimmed behind it?

If so, to get to the page's details, on the bottom right of the image there is a little image that is a page with a magnifine glass, if you mouse over it it'll say "View page details", this'll take you to the image's page. Alternatively you can right click and open the image in a new tab, this'll take you to the image's page also. Hope this helps. --Tangerineduel 13:52, August 14, 2010 (UTC)

Image and illustrator
Added for both Template:Infobox Short Story and Template:Infobox Torchwood Short Story. Both fields are auto-collapsing so they can be added and they'll just collapse if they're not used, see both pages for a copyable template. Thanks. --Tangerineduel 13:03, September 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * But you might also find the Template:Infobox Other Comics might be more useful if it's appeared in a Magazine, as with all infoboxes the fields collapse if they're not used. --Tangerineduel 13:51, September 1, 2010 (UTC)
