Hi! I've had to make several changes to the page you created at [[Seasons of War]], and it's a good idea for you to take a look at the changes and the policies involved. However, the main thing I want to point out is that, per [[Tardis:Video policy]], we '''never''' link to off-site videos. Because only admins can upload videos to the wiki, if you'd like to see a video uploaded to the wiki, you can go to [[Tardis talk:Video recommendations]] and follow the directions to recommend a video. Thanks. [[User:Shambala108|Shambala108]] [[User talk:Shambala108|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 15:11, February 1, 2015 (UTC) |
Revision as of 15:11, 1 February 2015
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:
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. Skittles the hog ☎ 21:38, November 30, 2014 (UTC)
Images
I'd like to point you to Tardis:Guide to images. Please remember not to put images in the middle of paragraphs. Also, don't specify a size, just leave it at "thumb". Thanks. P&P talk contribs 23:40, December 1, 2014 (UTC)
Please take a break
Hey, I'm going to have to block you for an hour to give you a chance to read through our image policies, located at Thread:148148, and noted above on your talk page by User:PicassoAndPringles. There's a lot of cleanup to be done with some of your edits, so please take the time to read through our image policies before adding any more images. Thanks!

Response
Hello! I've read through the image policies twice, once before editing and again once P&P posted the link. I don't understand what the issue is; the images seem to be within the guidelines (copyright or otherwise), I do not split up paragraphs with them and I leave them scaled at the default setting. However if you could clarify the errors I have made, that would be great.
Deleted images
Hi! Some of the images you recently uploaded had to be deleted. Please be sure you are familiar with our image policies before uploading images. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎ 18:56, December 29, 2014 (UTC)
Video policy
Hi! I've had to make several changes to the page you created at Seasons of War, and it's a good idea for you to take a look at the changes and the policies involved. However, the main thing I want to point out is that, per Tardis:Video policy, we never link to off-site videos. Because only admins can upload videos to the wiki, if you'd like to see a video uploaded to the wiki, you can go to Tardis talk:Video recommendations and follow the directions to recommend a video.
