Hi! I just wanted to let you know that it's not necessary to correct redirects. Technically, they're not wrong. They're just shortcuts that save a bit of typing.

Hi! Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I looked into the matter.

Hi! I wanted to address the issue you brought up at [[user talk:Tybort]] and [[User talk:CzechOut]], regarding the naming of the Tennant Doctor as the Tenth Doctor as cited in ''[[The Age of Ice]]''. | |||
* This item was originally added by Czechout (with both Tybort and me re-adding it when it gets removed), with the comment that we actually have verification of the number. This helps to clear up questions that people have with regard to things like the [[Morbius]] incident and the (still not yet established) identity of the [[John Hurt]] character. Until we learn otherwise, the Doctors are as stated in their story pages, and we will change if/when necessary. This comment by the comic character is a bit of in-universe confirmation of a necessary fact. | |||
* You described the character Kath Braxton as a "minor character from a comic that a lot of people on here probably haven't read." While this is true, it is the policy of the wiki that all stories have equal weight and importance, so there really isn't such a thing as a minor character or story. Therefore, her information is valid and useful. | |||
* You also assumed that, if you did something similar on the [[Eleventh Doctor]], it would be removed. If you put it in with the proper citation, it will be accepted. We have actually had people changing 9, 10 and 11 to 10, 11 and 12 based on assumptions about the Hurt character. Having in-universe confirmation of incarnation numbers will help keep this kind of thing to a minimum (like I said earlier, until we learn more about him). | |||
Hope this clears things up, if not let me know at my talk page, or if you'd like further discussion you can bring it up at [[Talk:Tenth Doctor]]. Thanks! [[User:Shambala108|Shambala108]] [[User talk:Shambala108|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 17:22, October 24, 2013 (UTC) | |||

Fanfic vandalism
Thanks for your eagle eyes with the Peri Brown situation. If you ever get into such a situation again, don't hesitate to put a note on my talk page (or that of any active admin) so that you don't have to waste so much time yourself.

Tenth Doctor lead-in
Hi! I wanted to address the issue you brought up at user talk:Tybort and User talk:CzechOut, regarding the naming of the Tennant Doctor as the Tenth Doctor as cited in The Age of Ice.
- This item was originally added by Czechout (with both Tybort and me re-adding it when it gets removed), with the comment that we actually have verification of the number. This helps to clear up questions that people have with regard to things like the Morbius incident and the (still not yet established) identity of the John Hurt character. Until we learn otherwise, the Doctors are as stated in their story pages, and we will change if/when necessary. This comment by the comic character is a bit of in-universe confirmation of a necessary fact.
- You described the character Kath Braxton as a "minor character from a comic that a lot of people on here probably haven't read." While this is true, it is the policy of the wiki that all stories have equal weight and importance, so there really isn't such a thing as a minor character or story. Therefore, her information is valid and useful.
- You also assumed that, if you did something similar on the Eleventh Doctor, it would be removed. If you put it in with the proper citation, it will be accepted. We have actually had people changing 9, 10 and 11 to 10, 11 and 12 based on assumptions about the Hurt character. Having in-universe confirmation of incarnation numbers will help keep this kind of thing to a minimum (like I said earlier, until we learn more about him).
Hope this clears things up, if not let me know at my talk page, or if you'd like further discussion you can bring it up at Talk:Tenth Doctor. Thanks! Shambala108 ☎ 17:22, October 24, 2013 (UTC)
- In addition to all this, it was, if I remember correctly, the first time that Tennant's number had ever been given in any officially licensed story. Since Eccleston's number has never been given (as of this writing), it was an especially vital nugget of information. It may not look like a big deal, now that Smith has given his number in The Lodger and Clara again in The Name of the Doctor. When published, it was the first time that an incarnation number had been given by a BBC Wales-approved story.
- Importance isn't measured by who says something, but by what they say.

Christmas cheer
Happy holidays!
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!
