Reverting Welcome template edits

Hi, I've reverted your edits on the Welcome template as it lead to some errors and is linked to far too many talk pages to change. It'd be fine to develop a new alternate Welcome template but for now...I think it might be better to leave it, it might be simple but it works. --Tangerineduel 16:02, November 23, 2009 (UTC)

Fair enough. Out of interest, why is substituting discouraged? Microchip08 16:04, November 23, 2009 (UTC)

Mostly because it broke a large amount of the talk pages that the Welcome template was on. As I said I'd be happy for the development of a new alternate Welcome template. But going through and editing 2000 or so of everyone's talk pages to fix something that isn't broken seems somewhat tedious and unnecessary. (As someone who has done hundreds or so of consecutive edits to fix minor things it's no walk in the park). --Tangerineduel 16:17, November 23, 2009 (UTC)

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!
