Welcome to the Tardis:About SpongeTron 5000

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 only take the best!

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:

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:

Remember that you should always sign your comments on talk and vote pages using four tildes like this:

Thanks for becoming a member of the TARDIS crew! If you have any questions, see the Help pages, add a question to one of the Forums or ask on my talk page. -- Mini-mitch (Talk) 22:33, 26 April 2012

Delete[[edit source]]

I deleted it because it was just a duplicate of the information from List of BBC DVD releases. YOu took the information from each of the William Hartnell DVDs and made a page for them. It was not really necessary. MM/Want to talk? 22:37, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

I know it was with good intent and I'm glad your are not annoyed at the deletion. What you could do is, if you wanted, with any VHS/DVDs you have:
  • Go onto the episode pages of whatever VHS/DVDs you have and expand on their home release section. Not to much, just a tidy up and add in any information.
  • Go to List of BBC DVD releases and VHS on if you have any, and add a sentence or two about the release of the DVDs etc.
  • Also, if you have any DVDs, watch the additional features/documentaries and add in and expand our articles on the DVD documentaries.
You happy to do that? I really do appreciate your contribution, but don't just create pages with duplicate information.
Also, as a side note, many, if not all DVD covers exist on this wiki as images, please use them instead of upload duplicate versions. Also, please not upload images if they have a watermark or 'TBC' over the rating. Thank you. MM/Want to talk? 22:59, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Christmas cheer[[edit source]]

Happy holidays!

As this fiftieth anniversary year comes to a close, we here at Tardis just want to thank you for being a part of our community — even if you haven't edited here in a while. If you have edited with us this year, then thanks for all your hard work.

This year has seen an impressive amount of growth. We've added about 11,000 pages this year, which is frankly incredible for a wiki this big. November was predictably one of the busiest months we've ever had: over 500 unique editors pitched in. It was the highest number of editors in wiki history for a year in which only one programme in the DWU was active. And our viewing stats have been through the roof. We've averaged well over 2 million page views each week for the last two months, with some weeks seeing over 4 million views!

We've received an unprecedented level of support from Wikia Staff, resulting in all sorts of new goodies and productive new relationships. And we've recently decided to lift almost every block we've ever made so as to allow most everyone a second chance to be part of our community.

2014 promises to build on this year's foundations, especially since we've got a full, unbroken series coming up — something that hasn't happened since 2011. We hope you'll stick with us — or return to the Tardis — so that you can be a part of the fun!
