Your account

Thanks for your recent 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 Fandom 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 use another form of English, 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

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

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 an admin.

A few rules

Hey! I see you didn't get the {{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.

1. 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 top or 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.
2. Tardis:Image use policy. Specifically: T:UNLICENSED. Any images uploaded without a license, such as {{screenshot}} (selected in the dropdown on upload, or directly called as a template) will be deleted.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. 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, which we take very seriously here. If you have any questions, feel free to drop by my talk page.
