Hi! Please do not copy plot summaries (or anything else) from Wikipedia (or anywhere else). On this wiki, we want '''original''' content. The plot summary for ''Deep Breath'' is incomplete because it's a '''very''' recently released story. There is no rush; we have tons of older stories that are missing plot summaries as well. | |||

: Oh, it's not all that interesting. The admin who created our main Discord server has gone MIA; we've been trying to get it back under control, but it's taking a frustratingly long time.

Image policies[[edit source]]

Christmas cheer[[edit source]]
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!
Deep Breath[[edit source]]
Hi! Please do not copy plot summaries (or anything else) from Wikipedia (or anywhere else). On this wiki, we want original content. The plot summary for Deep Breath is incomplete because it's a very recently released story. There is no rush; we have tons of older stories that are missing plot summaries as well.
As for your comment about the writing quality, that is what happens when an article has multiple editors. When the editing for the article has quieted down a bit (probably when the next episode airs), I will fix the grammar and such. There's no point in fixing it now when there are so many users who want to add/change the article.
