== Re: I'm here ==
Hey, thanks for letting me know. If I have any issues, I'll let you know (and I'll try not to bother you too much!). Thanks for the support on the OfficialBBC thing.
Did you see the other issue that Masterpwn mentioned on my page? I gather she's having trouble with the table of contents boxes on many pages, but I have no clue what the trouble could be.

== Tooth and Claw ==
[http://tardis.wikia.com/d/p/2898714054786811167] "Doctor, stop being childish."


So, before you moved [[Tooth and Claw (TV story)|Tooth and Claw]] to [[Tooth and Claw (TV story)]] — which was fine in itself — did you give any thought about what you would do with the couple of hundred links to [[Tooth and Claw (TV story)|Tooth and Claw]]?  Have you verified they're all meant to link to the TV story?  Were you taking care of the re-linking yourself?  What's going on with it? I'm getting questions on my talk page about it, so I need to know whether you're taking care of it, or whether I should be gettin' the bot ready.  {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}&nbsp;<span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">'''14:03:13 Sat&nbsp;'''23 Jul 2011&nbsp;</span>
[http://tardis.wikia.com/d/p/2898746895247607571] Regeneration - Changing sex/gender
:Well, here's the thing. The moment one makes a name change to an article — especially one as heavily linked as a TV story page — it's no longer an academic discussion on a talk page. The move requires additional action.  And we, as admin, have to make sure that a core page like this is re-linked properly.  We can't just leave it to others to take care of, because it's part of the basic "spine" of the wiki.  And what's happened here is that Tybort has "taken care of it" — by just asking ''me'' to make the changes.  And I don't mind doing it.  But I ''would'' like to do it on my own schedule, rather than having to stop what I was doing and do it ''now''. So in future it would be great if either you personally take responsibility for the re-linking consequent to a big name change like this; or you say, "You know, that's gonna require a bot to do it efficiently. Please put your request at [[user talk:CzechOut]]."  That way I can have some control over the ''timing'' and the ''way'' that it's done.  For instance, I would never have acquiesced to Tybort, no matter the validity of the request, before I knew that every single link to [[Tooth and Claw (TV story)|Tooth and Claw]] was meant to go to the TV story.  Once you establish that, the bot changeover is a snap.  {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}&nbsp;<span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">'''14:42:47 Sat&nbsp;'''23 Jul 2011&nbsp;</span>


== Typos on Doctor Who Series 7 ==
[http://tardis.wikia.com/d/p/2899264279691658817] Regeneration: Subconscious


You're probably dealing with them as I speak, but here goes. On the (naturally locked) [[Series 7 (Doctor Who)]] page you've been working on, you've got "annoounced the new of the new series" instead of "announced the news of the new series". -- [[User:Tybort|Tybort]] ([[User talk:Tybort|talk page]]) 22:21, July 24, 2011 (UTC)

==Creating template talk pages==
[http://tardis.wikia.com/d/p/2900016796918613613] Doctor 9's reaction to Rose's changing history
'''Why'''? I had this conversation with another user. Why? It makes it look like there's a discussion already happening when clearly there isn't. I know we had a discussion in the forums about talk pages already having the talk template on them, but I don't think we agreed about ''creating'' a talk page for ''ever single page'', especially as there's nothing to talk about on many pages. I also seem to recall we didn't come down on a plan of action specifically for all sorts of article pages. I also really think it gives a false sense of something being discussed, especially on those templates which provide a link to the talk pages, which obviously appears red when there's no talk page, and therefore nothing to be discussed. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] / '''[[User talk:Tangerineduel|talk]]''' 14:07, August 7, 2011 (UTC)


:I don't agree with the rationale using the wanted pages as a reason for creating stuff that shouldn't be created. It was basically the same rationale used in the Timeline discussion.  
[http://tardis.wikia.com/d/p/2909689846689695508] Something special about Christmas
:Creating pages before they're needed as a means of controlling random questions / vandalism is an extremely weird way of going about it.
:I really think the benefits of ''not'' having the talk pages existing and therefore allowing people to start talk pages as they're needed is a far better way of doing things. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] / '''[[User talk:Tangerineduel|talk]]''' 14:24, August 7, 2011 (UTC)
:Or if we're going to make policy of creating talk pages for your reasons we need to work out a policy for it – in the forums where we can work out if we're going to tag every template page with a separate talk page tag or the same talk page tag or other things like that. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] / '''[[User talk:Tangerineduel|talk]]''' 14:27, August 7, 2011 (UTC)


== Please take care in restoring timeline pages ==


I've noticed in the past few days that you've restored a number of year pages that ought to have remained deleted.  There are a number of year pages — 1509 being as good an example as any — where someone created the page without any good DWU facts.  1509, for instance, was created on the basis that ''The Sensorites'' mentions Henry VIII. The creating editor then said, well, if Henry VIII has been mentioned then it's safe to mention 1509, since that was the (real world) date he assumed the throne.  But ''The Sensorites'' doesn't establish 1590 at all.  Unfortunately there are very many pages in [[:category:timeline]] which have been created with this sort of faulty logic.  Please actually read the last deleted revision before you decide to resurrect, and determine whether the page really '''should''' be restored.  Many timeline pages were prop deleted by me prior to my becoming an admin, and the prop deletion was based on actual research.  If the final revision prior to deletion has a delete tag in it, please do not resurrect it.  {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}&nbsp;<span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">'''12:57:21 Mon&nbsp;'''08 Aug 2011&nbsp;</span>
