| == Re: images ==
| |
| Hi, please see [[Tardis:Images and perspective#In-universe articles]] for the full explanation, but the short version is that covers of audios, comics, books, etc. are only considered as a last resort if we don't have images from the story itself. Since the character '''does''' have a comic image, we use that.
| |
|
| |
| And please in the future add your messages on a talk page to the '''bottom''' of the page, not in the middle. Putting it in the middle makes it harder to find. Thanks [[User:Shambala108|Shambala108]] [[User talk:Shambala108|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 04:36, April 3, 2020 (UTC)

| : Please read through [[Tardis:Image use policy]] and [[Tardis:File naming conventions]] to see why you image was deleted (both times). As I explained at the deletion edit summary, the image was uploaded, both times with "no license, narrower than 420px, "gibberish" file name". Please don't upload new images until you've read through both policies. [[User:OncomingStorm12th|OncomingStorm12th]] ([[User talk:OncomingStorm12th|talk]]) 00:47, April 16, 2020 (UTC)
| |
| :: Yes. [[:File:Cleopatra.jpg]] was ''nearly'' a perfect upload. All it was missing was a license (which I've now added), but please remember to add them in the future. All images added without a license can (and most often are) immediately deleted. To add a license, click on "More options" and fill the last entry of the form that'll appear.

| Also, I notice you also use it on your Twitter account. I don't — I'm a top hat over there — and I bring this up to confirm that the DM you've just received over there from someone saying they're Scrooge MacDuck from the Wiki is in fact me.

| No worries. Do you happen to know the more specific citation for the [[Skrätch Marks]] page? ''[[The Panda Book of Horror (anthology)|The Panda Book of Horror]]'' is an anthology, so it's one of the 13 short stories that needs to be cited. Per [[T:CITE]], it's the story itself that's the source for in-universe information.{{User:SOTO/sig}} 03:00, June 20, 2020 (UTC)

| == Re: Bootstrap paradox ==
| |
| Saw WaltK's edit, and I'd have done much the same. There were two things wrong with your edit:
| |
| * in the text of an in-universe articles, story names can only be given as sources in parentheses. You can't say things like "In [[PROSE]]: ''[[Doctor Who and the Example of Death (novel)|Doctor Who and the Example of Death]]'', the Doctor may or may not have created a holographic Baron Von Frankenstein". That ''only'' goes in "Continuity" sections, and even there, only with some debate.
| |
| * if it is not confirmed that this is what Iris did, ''and'' there is no in-universe discussion of the possibility by characters, then it is "speculation" and can only be place in the BTS section, no matter how you write it.

| Hi on your talk page are several links to our image policies. If you haven't read them all yet, you must do so if you want to keep your contributions on the wiki. Admins and other users can't keep cleaning up after users who don't understand or read the policies.

| Hi, let me be perfectly clear here. You are not to take action on issues (as at [[Fanboys (short story)]]) that are currently under discussion (as at [[Talk:Fanboys (short story)]]), and an issue is not considered finished until an [[admin]] rules it so.

| == Block ==
| |
|
| |
| Hi, given the apology and explanation you left on the Parks & Rec wiki, I've unblocked you. It took so long because I don't often go on that wiki and only just found the message. If something similar occurs in the future, first try editing your talk page. It's an option for admins to block or not block the user's access to their own talk page, so you try that first. If you can't post on your own talk page, the best place to go next is the Community Central wiki. Other people have left similar messages there for me, so I do check that one a few times a week. You can find a link to the Community Central wiki by going to the top bar on any page and clicking the button that says "wikis"; the drop down menu will include a link to the CC wiki.

| Hey [[User:Epsilon the Eternal|Epsilon the Eternal]]! Thank you so much for your lovely comment on my page about my profile picture! I left a message for you there but I'll repeat it here because if you're interested you can build a Drashig out of LEGO on your own using some instructions ;)
| |
| :[[User:Epsilon the Eternal|Epsilon the Eternal]]: wow thanks Epsilon the Eternal!! I'm so glad you like it! I used to do a lot of LEGO Doctor Who, *you can find a bunch on my flickr page if you search "Jared If only I remembered..." and I have an instagram page, just search up "ummmmwho" or "Jared If only I remembered..."
| |
| :If you're REALLY interested I have also posted instructions on how to build the LEGO Drashig. Just go to youtube and type up "LEGO Doctor Who Drashig".
| |
| :There's also instructions for the 13th Doctor's TARDIS on the same channel (my youtube channel).
| |
| :Haha sorry for the self promotion, if it helps I don't build with LEGO anymore but at least it's given me more time to edit the wiki!! *NOTE: because of off-site links and a warning from [[User:Scrooge MacDuck|Scrooge]], I have removed the links and instead given you directions on how to find the items.

That's so cool that you collect customs! Any particular favourite? Do you like to post your stuff online? If so I'd love to see it! Also I am slowly getting rid of my creations if you are interested in any, on those accounts that I mentioned I have my email address listed there, fire me an email and let me know if you want anything, I'm happy to send it over!

| == Re: Images ==
| |
| Yes — the standards set in that closing posts should apply across the board. In fact, book covers are ''more usually'' (though not [[The Target Storybook (anthology)|always]]) illustrations of specific scenes than audio covers, so they're, I should say, even less problematic to use.
