Hey! I see you didn't get the {{tlx|welcome}} message, so I put it above myself. Perhaps because you never got the welcome, it seems there's a few policies I need to fill you in on. | |||
# '''[[Tardis:Spoiler policy]]''', and more specifically [[T:OFF REL]]. Here at Tardis, any information from a story which has not been '''released in its entirety''' is considered a spoiler. Per '''[[T:OFF REL]]''', a story is considered to have been officially released at the [[wiktionary:top of the hour|top]] or [[wiktionary:bottom of the hour|bottom of the hour]] ''after'' its premiere broadcast has ''clearly ended''. So if it's due to end at 1945 BST (or 7:45), you can only start editing based on that story at 8:00 (or 1200 BST). You tried to create a page for [[The Ghost Monument (TV story)]] before this time, and this would constitute a violation of [[T:SPOIL]]. | |||
# '''[[Tardis:Image use policy]]'''. Specifically: [[T:UNLICENSED]]. Any images uploaded '''without a license''', such as {{tlx|screenshot}} (selected in the dropdown on upload, or directly called as a template) '''will be deleted'''. | |||
# Furthermore, '''[[Tardis:Images and perspective]]''' -- we only use actual ''screenshots'' from episodes to represent in-universe scenes ([[T:IUI]]), and promotional images may not be used on story pages, either ([[T:OOUI]]). Instead, a TV story infobox image should be a '''''screenshot''''' from within the story, representing an iconic scene. Any images which are actually promotional images, but which would ''appear'' to be in-universe scenes, will be deleted. | |||
# '''[[Tardis:File naming conventions]]'''. When uploading an image, please use a '''simple, English-language file name'''. "P06ll275.jpg" or "P06nkbfy.jpg" is not a helpful file name. Use words to describe what's in the picture, or at least where it comes from. | |||
# Finally, '''[[Tardis:Video policy]]'''. Non-admin are '''''not allowed'' to upload videos''' to this site. Even if the video you want to upload ''is'' copyright-compliant, and comes from an official BBC YouTube source, you are invited to provide a link at [[Tardis:Video recommendations]], or if you really want, to directly notify an admin (me). | |||
I'm running on the assumption here that you haven't yet made your way to these policy pages. I highly recommend reading up on our other policies. You should understand now that [[T:SPOIL]] is a generally ban-able offence. If you have any questions, feel free to drop by [[User talk:SOTO|my talk page]].{{User:SOTO/sig}} 20:18, October 14, 2018 (UTC) |
