Your account

Thanks for your recent edits! I'm Jimbo, your robot wiki representative! We hope you'll keep on editing with us. This is actually a great time to have joined, because we're now fully independent, and working on a host of new features!

We've got a couple of important quirks for a fan written 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 use another form of English, 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

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:

Please do not upload atrocious quality images in place of the current image. If you feel the article deserves a change in image discuss it first. DoctorForHire 23:52, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

Warning

Please do not use the 'Upload a new version of this file' link on the image page to upload a different image. The purpose of this link is to upload a new version of the same image, continued abuse of this may be interpreted as vandalism and action taken to prevent your actions. To upload the image you continuously keep attempting to upload, just simply name it something different. --Tangerineduel 13:25, May 10, 2010 (UTC)

Warning

Be careful. Some of your edits appear to be vandalistic.

Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions here, please review our vandalism policy and consider whether all your edits have been made in the spirit of that policy. User:Solar Dragon/Signature 10:12, June 4, 2010 (UTC)

To the user who placed this tag: This message is pretty general and should usually be avoided. Please use one of the messages at {{warn list}}, or write a brief message of your own that tells the user specifically how they can improve their editing.

You have just vandalised the main page as well. I feel you may get a block now. ☆The Solar Dragon 07:39, July 5, 2010 (UTC)

Categories

Please do not create unnecessary categories. They will be deleted. The Thirteenth Doctor 18:47, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

• Please stop adding these categories to character pages. The Thirteenth Doctor 18:52, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

Video

You don't. The video is fan made, therefore non canon and therefore cannot be referenced to in any way on the site. Even adding a link on the page could be considered spam, which can result in a blocking. The Thirteenth Doctor 21:21, October 7, 2010 (UTC)

The Vandal

I have contacted wiki community central directly via email and I'll wait and see what they do. I gave them a description of what they have done on the the Sarah Jane Wiki. User:Mini-Mitch 21:44, October 15, 2010 (UTC)

Nope. I have both wikis open, and I am checking through them, I wonder if wiki central have block them on Sarah Jane Adventure Wiki. It seems to quite. They have to do something, they can't leave an adminless wiki by itself, especially with what this User has done. Mini-mitch 21:51, October 15, 2010 (UTC)

Sarah Jane Wiki

You can link from whichever Sarah Jane Wiki to this wiki, just acknowledge that you are linking away from whichever Sarah Jane Wiki to this wiki. Thanks. --Tangerineduel 13:11, October 18, 2010 (UTC)

Short videos

Generally, no. See our Tardis:Video policy for more detailed information. --Tangerineduel 14:32, November 10, 2010 (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!
