Appearances
I've said before, and I'll say again, we do not list characters, species etc to have appeared until the airing of an episode. Please do not add The Pandorica Opens and The Big Bang to any of the characters' pages until the episodes air. The Thirteenth Doctor 11:23, June 17, 2010 (UTC)

Apparantly, you did say before and again, frankly you did, and to let you informed by previous actions, the Cybus Cybermen have been marked in the list of appearances as The Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang. And I thought 'we' were supposed to continue this action. So, what is your current opinion. Duelfight 12:30, June 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * They can be marked as appearing in The Pandorica Opens and The Big Bang articles because those articles have spoiler tags on them. Their own pages don't have spoiler tags on them, and they are not supposed to as they are main articles and should be readable without spoilers. As for the cybermen, I've fixed that, and if you see any others, you should remove them as well. Until the airing of the episodes, their appearance in it is classed as a spoiler and should not be noted on their pages. The Thirteenth Doctor 11:46, June 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * I recognise what you mean, and I agree to removing others, and I now understand you. To prevent this, should they be semi-protected? Duelfight 14:40, June 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * There's probably no point with only two days to go. And, I think you've been adding to some pages haven't you. Just to let you know, this doesn't actually protect them, you need an admin to protect it, that tag is just so other users know that the page is protected. --The Thirteenth Doctor 13:59, June 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * I do protect them, that is correct. And I have noticed it hasn't been working. Thanks for the tip though. I only add them because unregistered contributor's could be warned by the message. Also, why have you put 13:59 at the end of your reply. Did you mean 14:59? Duelfight, 13:05, June 17 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, for some reason my timing is out... darn contrafaxilator is playing up again... The Thirteenth Doctor 14:09, June 17, 2010 (UTC)

Uploading Images
When uploading images, can you please make sure you are not uploading duplicates of images. This includes the same picture in different sizes, as you did with this and this, which are resized duplicates of this image. Thanks. The Thirteenth Doctor 19:02, June 17, 2010 (UTC)

I tried to resize some of my images, to make sure I have the right size. I did plan to delete them, but something kept on standing in my way. I do plan to delete them incarnation thirteen, but I never have the time.
 * What to do in future is, instead of uploading a new file, you upload a new version of the same file, on the File History section of the files's page you'll see a link that says upload a new version of this file. If you click that button it will allow you to upload a new version of it. The Thirteenth Doctor 09:53, June 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * That is what I was saying, but it is always at the last minute. I agree to what you said, and I have made several attempts at this now. Have you got the time wrong again? Duelfight 11:43 June 18, 2010 (UTC)

Duplicate Images
Hi, please do NOT upload duplicate images. Use the images on the site already. The Sontaran images you uploaded were duplicates of File:Staal2.jpg. Thanks, 11:38, June 18, 2010 (UTC)

I was mistaken, Solar Dragon, for a few times. If I do it again, delete my previous images. I am still editing the Sontaran article, and I plan to delete the duplicates after.
 * YOUR image is the duplicate. Stop adding it in. The older image links to more places so do not add it in again. This is edit warring which is not wanted here. Your images are marked for deletion too. 12:00, June 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * I will stop adding it in!!!!! And do not mark my images for deletion. And don't stop doing things with capitals! And If you don't want me here, I will delete my user!
 * I have marked them for deletion as duplicate images should be deleted. Also, you can't delete your user. See w:c:help:Help:Close my account for more details. 12:12, June 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, I thought you meant the images that are not duplicates. Anyway, I don't need my duplicates. And I will choose to carry on.
 * Oh, sorry if I didn't make myself clear. 12:21, June 18, 2010 (UTC)

 * Please STOP uploading various sizes of this image File:ThePandoricaOpens.PNG both 'File:Pandoricaopenssoldierspromo.png' and 'File:Pandoricaopenspromo.png' were a lower resolution than the image currently being used on The Pandorica Opens page, I'm not really sure why you were even uploading the same image at a lower resolution. --Tangerineduel 14:30, June 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * I am very sorry, if I made to many duplicates. I cannot make up my mind. It annoys myself. With 'The Pandorica Opens' I preffered the 16:9 version, than the 4:3 version. You can change it back if you wish.
 * We only need one size of each image, preferably the largest and best quality. After that, the image can be resized on individual article pages. The Thirteenth Doctor 15:47, June 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * I understand,

Changing images on articles
Please look at the whole article before changing images I have reverted Nestene Consciousness back to its previous image as the image you added was very similar to the image further down the article. The image from Spearhead from Space wasn't showcased anywhere. Please keep in mind these articles focus on the appearances throughout Doctor Who and are not limited to the very narrow scope of the BBC Wales series.

Additionally I have reverted changed back the main image on Auton. The image you added (more than once) doesn't have any identifying features that indicate it is an Auton, the image that's currently on the article has the full plastic mask and gun, clearly showing that it is an Auton. (Another way to look at it is if you didn't know anything about Autons and went to that page the image you added just looks like a mannequin whilst the images that was/is there looks like an Auton as it has the gun and recognisable false face. --Tangerineduel 14:01, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

Updater is in the case. New century, New Rules!!!!!!
 * Please stop changing the image on The Big Bang to the image of River. The one with the Doctor and Amelia is fine. The Thirteenth Doctor 15:34, June 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * Promotional pictures, No. 13, I thought if the rest of the images of the other episodes were promotional, this should be promotional.


 * Tardis:Manual of Style. --Tangerineduel 15:40, June 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * I have already read the Manual of Style.
 * Then I'll quote the relevant part "For story articles promotional images also should not be used, instead a screenshot that captures a poignant scene from the story should be used.". Thanks. --Tangerineduel 15:45, June 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK, but I do not understand why a promotional picture has been used for all other episodes.
 * Likely because no one has corrected it, or possibly every time the image was removed it was put back, or it was left because there were no screenshots as the episode hasn't been broadcast or those editing the article haven't read the manual of style or several other reasons along these lines. --Tangerineduel 15:52, June 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * I will stop adding promotional pictures.

Spoilers
I've said before not to list appearances before the episodes air, yet you're still doing it for Jo Grant's appearance in Death of the Doctor. Please stop. The Thirteenth Doctor 17:17, July 1, 2010 (UTC)

I did think this is a spoiler website, but yes I will stop listing new appearances.


 * It is a spoiler website only on the pages with the spoiler tag, which are the series pages and the episode pages (if they are created before the episode airs, a current debate). The Thirteenth Doctor 13:56, July 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Understanded.

Uploading images - license selection
Hi, all images that are uploaded to this wiki need to be tagged with copyright tags. The drop down menu, that thing that's underneath the summary box when you upload an image, the thing that says, quite clearly "Licensing".

Please, when uploading images, for instance like the several DWM covers that you've recently uploaded, please select, for those image "Doctor Who Magazine covers", it's under a heading of "Magazines" in the licensing menu drop box.

When people don't select this, editors on this wiki still need to add the copyright tags to the images, the only other option is to delete the images.

There are licenses that cover just about all images that you could upload to this wiki, please check and use the licensing selector. Thanks. --Tangerineduel 14:50, July 10, 2010 (UTC)
