Your account

Thanks for your 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 Wikia 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're American, 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
• a list of people whose job it is to help you

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 on my talk page. Doug86 ☎ 23:36, October 15, 2014 (UTC)

Infoboxes

Hi! On this wiki, infoboxes are meant to be short bits of information, not detailed lists of things like enemies, settings, etc. There is no need for you to add to the main enemy field of infoboxes for stories that have been around a while. For the majority of stories, we only want one main enemy, especially since there is often confusion over the definition of what an enemy is. In short, please don't add any enemies to infoboxes. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎ 01:03, October 16, 2014 (UTC)

Once again, please don't add any new "enemies" to story infoboxes. The infobox is asking for MAIN enemy, not every possible enemy. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎ 01:04, October 17, 2014 (UTC)

Sorry, but sometimes Doctor Who episodes have more than one main enemy. Such as THE SILENCE and the Alliance for The Silence was responsible responsible for all of this in the first place by blowing up the TARDIS, which caused the cracks in time and the Alliance is formed to prevent that. User:Scheepybird October 18, 2014

Once again, I am requesting that you not add enemies to infoboxes. I've already explained why in my post above. Please understand that all users must follow policy, whether we agree with the policy or not.

Also, when you sign your name to a talk page, please use four tildes ~~~~ instead of typing "User:your name". Using the tildes allows for a timestamp and for a link to both your user page and your talk page, which is required by Tardis:Signature Policy. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎ 00:30, October 26, 2014 (UTC)

What? I didn't put down any new enemy until I read your posts above. I have no idea what you're talking about.Scheepybird ☎ 01:02, October 26, 2014 (UTC) October 25, 2014

Block

I'm blocking you for a day, but it's not a punishment. Rather, it is a means to get your attention. Sometimes new users don't realize the little box at the lower right part of the screen is a message indicator, so I'm assuming you haven't seen the two messages I posted earlier re enemies in infoboxes. I'm not going to explain that rule again, other than to say, please leave the enemy field alone in infoboxes. Most older TV stories' (pre-series 8) infoboxes are pretty much fixed the way they need to be, and don't need additions or changes. If you can let me know on your user page that you have read and understood the messages I've left you, I will then unblock you. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎ 00:29, October 18, 2014 (UTC)

Sorry I haven't read it before. Now I have your attention. User:Scheepybird October 18, 2014
