'''Welcome to the Thanks for your edits! We hope you'll keep on editing with us. This is a great time to have joined us, because now you can play the Game of Rassilon with us and win cool stuff! Well, okay, badges. That have no monetary value. And that largely only you can see. But still: they're cool!

We've got a couple of important quirks for a Wikia wiki, so let's get them out of the way first. British English, please We generally use British English round these parts, so if you're American, please be sure you set your spell checker to BrEng, and take a gander at our spelling cheat card. Spoilers aren't cool We have a strict definition of "spoiler" that you may find a bit unusual. Basically, a spoiler, to us, is anything that comes from a story which has not been released yet. So, even if you've got some info from a BBC press release or official trailer, it basically can't be referenced here. In other words, you gotta wait until the episode has finished its premiere broadcast to start editing about its contents. Please check the spoiler policy for more details. Other useful stuff Aside from those two things, we also have some pages that you should probably read when you get a chance, like:
 * the listing of all our help, policy and guideline pages
 * our Manual of Style
 * our image use policy
 * our user page policy
 * a list of people whose job it is to help you

If you're brand new to wiki editing — and we all were, once! —  you probably want to check out these tutorials at Wikipedia, the world's largest wiki:
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
 * Picture tutorial

Categories
Hi! I wanted to talk to you about your editing. You've added a lot of good material to some neglected areas of the wiki, but we have some category rules that you need to know before you continue.

First, it's a quirk of wiki editing that when you type something like, it's not red-linked, so you can't tell if it exists or not. Some of the categories you have added are not actually categories that exist on this wiki.

Now, if the category doesn't exist, why can't you just create it yourself? Well, you can if there are at least three items that will go in that category. As a rule, we require categories to have at least three items in them except in special cases (and story pages are not special cases).

So if you see a story that has a category like, say,, but you know the story takes place in 1054, then you would know that there is no category for stories set in 1054, and there won't be unless there are two other stories that take place in that year.

Please let me know if any of this needs clarifying. Thanks! Shambala108 ☎  03:17, July 23, 2015 (UTC)

Edits
Hi! Could you please tell me exactly what edits you made at Transit (novel) from May 16-21, Love and War (novel) from May 1-10 and The Domino Effect (novel) from April 9-17. Thanks! Shambala108 ☎  03:02, May 22, 2016 (UTC)


 * Since you haven't gotten back to me on this, and I can't figure out what you are removing from these articles, I am blocking you for three days while I try to make sense of your edits. Shambala108 ☎  03:52, May 26, 2016 (UTC)

Hi sorry i have not contact you, I've been kind of busy and distracted lately. Anyway the edits i have been doing is removing unrequired "extra space". If you go into edit source you will see what i mean.


 * I don't think it's necessary to remove these spaces, but even if you feel the need to do so, I don't know why you have to remove one at a time. Surely it would be easier to do all of them in one edit. Creating so many edits makes the page history unnecessarily long and therefore more difficult to search. Please keep that in mind. Thanks.
