== Anne Kelso ==
== Admin+ ==


Drumroll.... Anne..d... done.
Hey there! I’m reaching out to introduce the Admin+ program (if you haven’t heard about it already!) & let you know I’m here if you have any questions about it. Take a look at the details [https://community.fandom.com/wiki/Admin_Plus here] & feel free to send over any questions you have. <span style="font-family: Rubik; border-radius:8em; padding:0 5px; background:#d58494">[[User:Pikushi|<span style="color:#f1f5ff">pikushi ✧.*</span>]] </span>  <staff /> 20:25, 18 September 2023 (UTC)


Didn't Anne-ticipate I'd do it right away, did you? I hate myself so much right now.. (Couldn't fit Kelso in without resorting to French.){{User:SOTO/sig}} 01:07, February 1, 2019 (UTC)

== "No, this is Patrick" (Jr) ==
Hey I was wondering if it is allowed for me to move my user page to a different link, then back so get the redrect. Also is it allowed to post here?


Is there any chance that either Patrick is confirmed as "Jr" or "Senior"? I wonder if there's precedence, otherwise, to just label the brother [[Patrick O'Sullivan Jr]] or [[Patrick O'Sullivan, Jr]], for the purposes of disambiguation, even so?
The redrect would be Betacoder125


To answer your question another way, though, there are very few links to [[Patrick O'Sullivan]], so whatever rename situation best satisfies [[T:CHAR NAMES]] and [[T:DAB]] is perfectly feasible. When possible, we try not to dab by first mention (rather than appearance), but of course sometimes there's no other way about it.

Any thoughts on the Jr/Sr route?{{User:SOTO/sig}} 01:13, February 6, 2019 (UTC)
 
== Quick question ==
 
I couldn't help but notice what I did for The Lucy Wilson Mysteries is the same as what is on the page for the Short Trips series. I'm just curious if that should be changed, instead, to a list, followed by a cover gallery.

== Main Range ==
 
To be clear, do you want them to swap the whole series variable link to just <code><nowiki>[[Main Range]]</nowiki></code>, or do you want the current text ([[Main Range|Big Finish ''Doctor Who'' audio stories]]) to link there? I don't think they mind a bit of exercise. SV7 took time off, and they're ready to get back at it, full throttle (well, half-throttle). If you tell me what the tasks are, I'll get them done whenever I have the free time. There's no pressure just in knowing.{{User:SOTO/sig}} 01:19, February 27, 2019 (UTC)
:Sorry, I was doing a photoshoot for [[User:SV7|my bot]], who's sporting a new look these days. I'm not 100% sure why, but I mostly see "Main Range" without italics among lists/section headings where all other ranges are italicised. And, of course, yeah, the other hesitation is that the "[[Main Range]]" is not ''the'' primary range of the whole ''Doctor Who'' franchise. Would "[[Big Finish Doctor Who audio stories|Big Finish ''Doctor Who'']] [[Main Range]]" be overdoing it?{{User:SOTO/sig}} 04:53, February 27, 2019 (UTC)
::That would be similar to how we currently treat ''Torchwood''. Also, I totally forgot there even ''was'' a series variable for Infobox Magazine. Do you have examples of that parameter being used correctly? Is it "''Doctor Who Magazine'' issues", "DWM issues" or "''Doctor Who Magazine''"? Which do you think works best?{{User:SOTO/sig}} 04:54, February 27, 2019 (UTC)
I agree. I wanted a second opinion. I won't be running anything tonight, though; long day.{{User:SOTO/sig}} 02:42, February 28, 2019 (UTC)
 
== Autor photo ==
Thank you, OncomingStorm12th, for the edits to my author page - it looks *fantastic*! I'm really excited to have a proper profile on this site.
 
Do you have any idea how to fix the problem with my author photo? It is a formal photo of me, taken by my husband at my request, to which I therefore hold the copyright. I can't figure out which licence I need to choose from the dropdown menu, and every time I upload it, an admin takes it down. I've even tried putting a © Rachel Churcher 2019 statement next to the image, but it seems that this is not good enough. Any advice would be very welcome!
 
Thank you,

== Main Range categories ==
 
Honestly, that’s the sort of thing that would affect so many pages that I would be far more comfortable going the forum route with this. "Main Range/2019 audio stories" would be highly irregular, but I don't see why something like "2019 Main Range audio stories" should be off the table. I just think this is the sort of thing that would merit a more public, inclusive discussion.{{User:SOTO/sig}} 00:18, March 17, 2019 (UTC)

== References policy ==
 
 
Hi, you just reverted my edit to The_Ghosts_of_N-Space_(audio_story) and I was curious as to the meaning of your summary. Do you mean that references should have a link to an existing in universe page, such as "The Doctor uses his [[Sonic screwdriver|sonic screwdriver]].", or did you mean a link is required to demonstrate a source for the information.
 
If it is the first case, I have been leaving links out of some of my edits because I am not confident on what is link-worthy and what is not (I'm still a bit new and haven't got to grips with all the nuances), especially when dealing with redlinks. I am just editing pages to add information that I think is relevant and would appreciate any suggestions you may have on what is appropriate to be on this wiki.
 
Thanks for any help,

:In the end, 180 pages had been missed. Looking through my log, it's strange that I actively removed the bit of regex that meant it was looking for both bigfinish and Bigfinish. No idea why I decided to run it that way. Thanks again!{{User:SOTO/sig}} 04:54, May 16, 2019 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for reminding me about that. I tried several times to move it back but it didn't work for some reason. I need to look into it but I had forgotten. Thanks [[User:Shambala108|Shambala108]] [[User talk:Shambala108|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 19:51, June 14, 2019 (UTC)
