== Leads ==  
== Protection request ==
Please ensure that any articles you create adhere to [[Tardis:Leads]], which stipulates that every page must have an introductory lead providing context for the article. For example, for your page [[Autumn]], I simply added:


  <nowiki>'''Autumn''' was a season.</nowiki>

Now, that's obviously a nascent form, but if you don't have the necessary information, just writing something that basic will allow you to meet the criteria. I know I did message you before about leads, so it might seem like you can't win at this point, but don't now go back to making those errors: copying from Wikipedia, or using non-DWU information. I hope you can find a compromise.--{{User:Skittles the hog/sig}} 01:22, October 11, 2014 (UTC)

:Thanks. It did seem I couldn't win for losing on the leads, so I wasn't adding any. It's mostly an issue with the generic/disambiguation type pages I'm creating. I thought about adding something like you did, but that seemed insufficient. If that's all it takes, I can do that. I just don't want the pages deleted after all the work I put into them, just for the lack of a few words. Anyway, thanks for the constructive suggestions, muchly appreciated. Back to the grind!  :) ----[[User:Ebyabe|<span style="color:purple">'''Ebyabe'''</span>]] [[User Talk:Ebyabe|<span style="color:green"><small>'''(talk)'''</small></span>]] 01:44, October 11, 2014 (UTC)


== Redlinks ==
Hi! Could you please let me know the source for the information you posted at [[2534]]? Thanks. [[User:Shambala108|Shambala108]] [[User talk:Shambala108|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 04:19, May 28, 2016 (UTC)
:Oops! Found it and added. Cheers.  :)  ----[[User:Ebyabe|<span style="color:purple">'''Ebyabe'''</span>]] [[User Talk:Ebyabe|<span style="color:green"><small>'''(talk)'''</small></span>]] 21:41, May 30, 2016 (UTC)


Hi! I realize you want to clean up the wanted pages, but you should just be focusing on the real world and in-universe pages. As for talk pages, forum pages, templates, etc that have redlinks, without knowing the purpose of the redlinks, you should not delete them. In addition, it is against [[Tardis:Vandalism policy|policy]] for non-admins to change the content other users' posts to talk pages and forum pages, so it's best not to give permission in this case that could lead other users to thinking it's ok to do so.  
== Could you please... ==


For now, just focus on story info and cast/crew/production pages, and maybe start fully fleshing out some of the stubs you've created. I know your original question was for Skittles the Hog, but I've been meaning to address this with you for a little while now, and being an expert at procrastinating, I'm just now getting around to it ;) Thanks!

Could you please add categories to the following pages, which you created:
* <s>[[Shaw]]</s>
* [[Charlotte (Anachrophobia)]]
* [[Georgia (Anachrophobia)]]
* <s>[[Bragg (Anachrophobia)]]</s>
* <s>[[Lane (Anachrophobia)]]</s>
I had to remove [[:category:Humans]], because that is not to be used on individual pages. Please try to find more specific categories. Is [[:category:Human time travellers]] applicable to [[Georgia (Anachrophobia)|Georgia]] and Dr [[Paterson (Anachrophobia)|Paterson]]? Do I smell [[:category:Human military officers]] for [[Lane (Anachrophobia)|Lane]]?


:Ah...
On a sidenote, always remember to add {{tlx|NameSort}} to every character page, except for obvious exceptions, even if that character only has one name.{{User:SOTO/sig}} 02:15, October 8, 2016 (UTC)
:I only just saw Shambala's post above this. However, I must say I disagree with them. Removing a redlink to a page that will never be created is, in my opinion, allowable. If it will help you continue your work on the wanted pages, I'm all for it. I do see Shambala's problem with it though. I removed all the links to that user blog you mentioned and they were all on the Howling, so that wasn't really a difficult one.
:Thanks for reminding about the Namesort, I'll make sure to include in future. The trouble with categories for Georgia and Charlotte is that I can't find any. Neither time travelled, their spouse/lover time travelled to them. It gives no info in the story about their professions, and nothing about time period. Humans was the best I could think of. If you have any ideas about that, I'd appreciate. Thanks. ----[[User:Ebyabe|<span style="color:purple">'''Ebyabe'''</span>]] [[User Talk:Ebyabe|<span style="color:green"><small>'''(talk)'''</small></span>]] 02:32, October 8, 2016 (UTC)

::::Wait a second, I'm an idiot. They can ''all'' get [[:category:Humans from unknown eras]]. I was ''wondering'' why these seem to be the only pages we have so much trouble with.

:Contrastingly, BFBS was linked on archived forum pages. Some would have these preserved for posterity in all their glory. I removed the links - other wouldn't have; it's more important to allow for progress now that to exhibit the past, in my opinion. BFBS was also linked to by a user's personal subpages. Now these you shouldn't change without asking. Oh, and BFBS is only linked to twice now, so it should fall down the wanted list.

:I'm sure either Shambala or another user will have a viewpoint so you should wait before acting on this, but if your just removing a redlink from an archived forum page or a Howling page, it seems fine to me. The obvious solution to this would be to just ignore those red links on the wanted page, but if they're bugging you, or detracting from your ability to keep creating, I still stand by my decision. It's a minor change for great benefits.--{{User:Skittles the hog/sig}} 09:57, November 16, 2014 (UTC)

== Apology ==
Hey Ebyabe, this is former user BSAK64, I know you told me not to message you here. But I’m here to tell you that I am deeply sorry for the way I spoke to you in my previous talk pages messages in the past. Whenever I said to you before here on this wiki (I unfortunately don’t remember,)  didn’t mean for what I said to you, the reason why I got angry and frustrated with you is because I felt like I was being mistreated by you, but now I know that you didn’t do anything wrong. I now know what I did was wrong too, because back then I didn’t know any better when I spoke to you that way, but years later, I know what I did was wrong and I just wanted to let you know that I’m deeply sorry and I regret for the way I messaged you. For now on I promise not to talk to you that way again, but please, I’m begging for forgiveness. Again, I am very, very, sorry for what I did to you before. I really hope you can forgive me and we can put all this behind us and pretend it never happened.

Could you please add categories to the following pages, which you created:

I had to remove category:Humans, because that is not to be used on individual pages. Please try to find more specific categories. Is category:Human time travellers applicable to Georgia and Dr Paterson? Do I smell category:Human military officers for Lane?
