==Just wanted to check==
Hey, I just wanted to check that you're not working on a NA navbox, as I just saw the EDA (great work btw) and didn't want to start working on an NA version if you're in the process.


Also wanted to say that your re-work of the feature article policy looks to be coming along well, I seem to recall I thought of something like you've done, but I put it on the back burner mostly because at that time there would likely be objections and nothing would be done to fix the articles, so it seemed, as long as it didn't have any improvement tags that was ''good enough'', but we really should be showcasing ''the best'', so your process seems to be better. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] / '''[[User talk:Tangerineduel|talk]]''' 15:59, July 29, 2011 (UTC)
== DWM ==


:Feel free to alter the Feature Article policy whatever way to accommodate your new additions. I don't think your additions are a large shift in policy, it's more a development of the "Feature Article rejection" part of the policy. Also if you follow through the policy's talk page to the forum and (through some other links), there was this page [[Tardis:Nominations for featured articles]] which was how we used to do it, until it all sort of stalled and I restarted it with the system we've got at the moment, but the nominations page was in 2008, now we've got more active users so any opposition should get the problems fixed, rather than just stagnating.

== TARDIS page edits  ==
hello, could you please direct me to the pages on how to make a signiture? If there is none, please could you tell me how to? [[User:Metardis|Metardis]] <sup>[[User talk:Metardis|talk to me&nbsp; ]]</sup>


It seems user [http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/User:Bold_Clone Bold Clone] and I have a bit of a disagreement on how the [[TARDIS]] page should be edited. He edited sections and pics that he felt were out of place. I don't believe the edits were necessary. Truthfully, the edits he made were done more then a week ago. I just haven't had time to write to you. I talked to him about it a week or so ago and he said that only input from a moderator would be enough to sway his decision. This was a good idea and that's why I'm writing to you. I undid his edits again but only so you would have a more recent edit to make a comparision from. I'm sure he'll undo my undo all over again. Forgive my long drawn out arguments in advance. His edits include:
I am getting very confused :( [[User:Metardis|Metardis]] <sup>[[User talk:Metardis|talk to me]]</sup> 12:39, November 2, 2011 (UTC)
*Removing pic of the Console that was in the flight section of the page.
According to Bold Clone the console pic quote "Irrelevant to flight." end quote. According to him, quote " The console of the Doctor's TARDIS is completely irrelevant to the TARDIS' flight. It doesn't belong there." end quote. While I, personally, would prefer another pic of a newer version of the TARDIS' console, I disagree with him in regards to the idea that the console is irrelevant to flight. It b elongs on the TARDIS page and in the Flight section. The reason I say this is because it has been demonstrated "that all you need is a console w/ time rotor and three walls to fly through the vortex". We see this in the episode [http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/The_Doctor%27s_Wife The Doctor's Wife], [http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/The_Doctor%27s_Wife The Doctor's Wife] is the episode where Idris and The Doctor use left over parts from cannibalized TARDISes abandoned in the Bubble universe's Junkyard to build the [http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Junk_TARDIS Junk TARDIS]. With the junk TARDIS they fly to the Police Box TARDIS which had been hijacked by [http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/House House]. According to the [http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Junk_TARDIS junk TARDIS] wikia page "'The TARDIS consisted solely of a console (with [http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Time_rotor time rotor]) and three walls. It lacked a proper shell, which the Doctor stated would be very dangerous to travel without." So basically I think this demonstrates that the console is key to time-space flight and that it does belong in the flight section.


*Reference to the TARDISes ability to turn invisible
== Victory is yours ==
Basically I posted a reference in the "Chameleon circuit" section noting the time when the TARDIS landed in the White House's Oval Office in 1969. The TARDIS was both invisible and inaudible at the time so Nixon and his staff didn't know the TARDIS was there. This happened in the first episode of series 6, [http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/The_Impossible_Astronaut The Impossible Astronaut]. Bold Clone said , "Chameleon circuit: Completely irrelevant to the shapeshifting abilities of the chameleon circuit." From what I can tell the Chameleon Circuit is designed to conceal the TARDIS in order to allow it to blend into it's surroundings like a chameleon. Shapeshifting is one way it does that, invisibility is the other way, so I think it does fit under that category. He also took out a pic showing the TARDIS going from being invisible to visible in the Oval Office.
You'll be happy to know you've effectively won a long-standing debate on an MOS issue. See [[T:SPACING]], paragraphs two and three, for more. Even as we speak, the bot is now systematically ensuring that every full stop has only '''one''' space after it. (I can't bring myself to say it's the actual rule, though. I won't do it.  I won't, I tell you. You can take the ''practical'' victory. Fine. But too many of our ancestors got marked off in their typing classes for using one space to say that it is ''theoretically'' wrong to put two.)  {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}04:59: Thu&nbsp;03 Nov 2011&nbsp;</span>
*Removed pic showing how the TARDIS is bigger on the inside then it is on the outside.
The pic was in the "Dimensionally Transcental" section of the TARDIS wikia. The pic was there awhile. It was previously reviewed by you and you didn't seem to have a problem with it, prior to it's removal. The pic was meant to illustrate how the TARDIS was bigger on the inside. Bold Clone seems to believe the pic doesn't fit on the page.[[User:MochaShakaKhan|MochaShakaKhan]] 04:19, August 2, 2011 (UTC)


:Quick point: I never said that that the staff would change my opinion. I would prefer that you stop misquoting me.
== a bit funny ==
:A console picture is ''not'' as relevant as a picture of the TARDIS ''in flight''. The TARDIS ''in flight'' is ''far'' better for a section about the TARDIS ''in flight''. How many others are going to make the same connection as you did?
:The Chameleon circuit does not turn the TARDIS invisible. Does the Doctor specifically say that the chameleon circuit turned the TARDIS invisible? No...
:There were two pictures illustrating the TARDIS' dimensional transcendance. We only needed one. --[[User:Bold Clone|<span style="color:darkblue">'''Bold'''</span>]] [[User Talk:Bold Clone|<span style="color:gold">'''Clone'''</span>]] 18:35, August 3, 2011 (UTC)
::Well you said, "If you have a problem with it, talk to the staff" I came to the false conclusion that the word of an administrator would be enough to get you to stop undoing my edits. Am I wrong about that? I never said that they would change your opinion. The TARDIS isn't a big ship like the Enterprise or the Galactica. There are a few key components that make a TARDIS. One of those key components is the console. Words are great, but visual content is important too. I'm not sure about others, but when I look up a wikia I want to see what it is I'm reading about. That's why a few pics are necassary. They don't take up that much space on the page and they make all the differance.
::As for the invisibility, I believe it belongs somewhere on the page. I think it belongs in the Chameleon Circuit section, but if you want, as a comprimise perhaps we can add the exert I wrote to another section other then the Chameleon Circuit section. Invisibility is a feature of the TARDIS so it does belong somewhere on the page. That's the point.
::To the less technobabble savy amoung us Dimensionally Transcental might be alittle hard to wrap your head around so the pic was meant to help by showing the TARDIS from the inside out. [[User:MochaShakaKhan|MochaShakaKhan]] 19:13, August 3, 2011 (UTC)


:Yes, you are wrong about that. It does not matter what the Staff says; I will not change my mind.
hello, its a bit weird that alot of context on your talk page has gone. could you tell me what this is? also, on http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Boblipton there is no text. I remember putting somthing on it, kindly explain.....[[User:Metardis|Metardis]] <sup>[[User talk:Metardis|talk to me]]</sup>
:Really, we dod not need a second picture. If I were to talk about how the ''Enterprise'' can fly through space, I would show a picture of the ''Enterprise'' flying through space, not the control room. The same sort of clear and logical thinking applies to the TARDIS in flight. I want to see that TARDIS in flight, becuase that is the best visual aid we could possibly give.
:Invisibility might belong somewhere on the page, but not under the Chameleon Circuit. ''The Chameleon Circuit does not give invisibility.''
:To the less technobabble-savy, dimensionally transcental might be a little hard understand, which is why we already had a picture there in the first place. We do not need a second one. --[[User:Bold Clone|<span style="color:darkblue">'''Bold'''</span>]] [[User Talk:Bold Clone|<span style="color:gold">'''Clone'''</span>]] 20:37, August 3, 2011 (UTC)

:Well we resolved the issue concerning the section on invisibility and this newer issue about the main image, but there is still an issue concerning whether the pic of the console that used to be on the page belongs in the flight section. I also wanted to add a gallery to the article, but it's possible some people may have a problem with that so I'd like to know if it is OK in advance.[[User:MochaShakaKhan|MochaShakaKhan]] 19:35, August 6, 2011 (UTC)
:
:OK, then maybe instead of including the gallery directly on the TARDIS page, perhaps I can place a link to another page on the wIkia that would be a gallery specially dedicated to TARDISes. I beleive the Marvel Comics wikia does this. I really do beleive that visual referances are just as important as "textual" ones. A picture is worth a thousand words after all. :) [[User:MochaShakaKhan|MochaShakaKhan]] 05:57, August 8, 2011 (UTC)


== Featured articles ==
== Image rules cheat card ==
I'm noticing more and more instances of people uploading pictures which are, according to agreed practises, flawed in some way.  I'm thinking that part of the reason might be that we haven't put it all together on one page, so I've created [[T:ICC]], or [[Help:Image cheat card]].  It's kind of in the vein of the [[Help:Spelling cheat card]] — just a quick run-through of the big points about image usage.  Let me know if you think it could be improved. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}05:44: Fri&nbsp;11 Nov 2011&nbsp;</span>


Sorry it's taken a few days to get back to you on your rejig of featured article nominations.  I don't really understand your basic ruleset.  When does approval happen?  According to what I can figure out on your sandbox page, the answer ''seems'' to be, "When there are no remaining objections".  So it's not a positive vote of "This is a great article because it adheres to points a, b and c of the (as-yet-unwritten) [[Tardis:Featured article policy]]," Rather, it's a ''negative'' vote of, "No one ''dis''-likes the article, so we can now feature it on the main page."

I don't think that's what we want to say.
== Hi! ==
Hi Skittles! I am asking if it is alright to make you a nominee for a [http://community.wikia.com/wiki/Community_Central:Content_Team/Featured_Wikians/ featured wikian] (me asking)? '''[[User:Metardis|<span style="background:gold;color:green">!Ṃ'ě</span>]][[User Talk:Metardis|<span style="background:green;gold">'ṭ'á'ṛ</span>]][[|<span style="background:gold;color:green">đ'ί</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Metardis|<span style="background:green;color:gold">'Ṣ'! </span>]]<span style="background:gold;color:green">{{#time: [[Y]]}} <span style="background:green;color:gold">{{#time: D}} <span style="background:gold;color:green">at <span style="background:green;color:gold">{{#time: a G: i}}</span></span></span></span>'''


I'd recommend setting a clear ''standard'' for FA status, then finding six articles which adhere to that standard, with those six articles agreed by admin over a week long private nomination process not open to the general editing community.  In other words, really truly get the six best articles on the wiki.  Then, roll those six articles out over the next six months. 
{{please see|Married Companions#Proposed rule change}} {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}23:50: Fri&nbsp;27 Jan 2012&nbsp;</span>


In the meantime, start the voting process, open to all (even unregistered) voters for January 2012.  Instead of making the standard simply "all objections must be answered", make the standard, "Not only must all objections be answered, but featured articles must have a minimum of five completely positive votes." 
{{please see|What makes an ally and an enemy?}} [[User:Mini-mitch|MM]]/<small>[[User talk:Mini-mitch|Want to talk?]]</small> 21:33, February 1, 2012 (UTC)


As your ruleset currently stands, an article could be featured without even being seconded, since your main criterion is merely that no one ''objects'' to it. We need to close that loophole and give nominations a few months to gather a minimum number of votes.  This is why we would build in the six months' padding — in addition to the need for admin-decided examples of excellence.
== Images by story categories ==
Please be aware that [[:category:images by televised story|images by televised story]] and [[:category:images by comic story|images by comic story]] are now completely filled out with subcategories for each and every story of that type.  So if you have an image from say, ''[[Thinktwice (comic story)|Thinktwice]]'', you'll want to make sure that you put it in [[:Category:Thinktwice comic story images]]. Or if you have something from ''[[The Mind of Evil (TV story)|The Mind of Evil]]'', please ensure it gets into [[:Category:The Mind of Evil TV story images]].  


So, in summary: define a '''standard''', pick '''six examples''' that meet that standard, open up '''user nominations for January 2012''', and then wait (in the six months we've added to the system) for user-nominated articles to get a mere '''five votes'''. That's how I'd go. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}&nbsp;<span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">'''04:09:04 Tue&nbsp;'''02 Aug 2011&nbsp;</span>
These [[:category:images by story|images by story]] categories are, of course, ''in addition'' to any other categories which may be appropriate, such as ones from [[:category:Images by character|Images by character]], [[:category:Images by object|Images by object]], or [[:category:images by species|images by species]].


== TARDIS main image ==
[[:category:Images by story|Images by story]] will continue to grow over the coming weeks to include other media, but comics and TV were deemed the highest priority, since the vast majority of images will come from these two visual media. 


There is some sort of argument or discussion of what the main image for [[TARDIS]] should be. One user wants a camoflauged TARDIS. You and me know that is ridiculous, because that is not a TARDIS's true appearance. I honestly think an admin should get control of this situation. Your input is really needed.

Also, if you haven't noticed it for now, TV story pages now all have a little tab at the top left labelled "images". Clicking it takes you to the relevant category, so that you can quickly view our repository of images from that particular story  All stories will eventually have this sort of link. Longer term, individual charactes might also have such a link. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}02:37: Mon&nbsp;20 Feb 2012&nbsp;</span>

Right, seeing as you have decided to not only claim I'm making personal attacks, but then make comments on other users pages about me, I've decided to answer you. I asked Czech to ignore your comment as it was unjustified. This is a perfectly valid point. Here's the important part: if was a criticism, not a personal attack. [[Tardis:No personal attacks]] specifies that disagreements are not personal attacks. It also says something interesting about accusatory comments ''being'' personal attacks...

Now, you suggested on [[User talk:Tangerineduel]] that I had no evidence for my own claims. I did, simple as. Then you went on to simply insult me for no clear reason. I have already asked you not to attack users at [[Talk:Oswald Danes|this talk page]] and hoped there was no need to reiterate but: please do not insult other users.

== Doc cats ==
== Knew I Was Forgetting Something... ==


Hey, I saw that you had put most of the docs into the 'making of' cat, but that you hadn't actually made the cat yet, by affixing it to an existing cat.  I changed the name to something wordier, but more precise, [[:category:Documentaries about the making of Doctor Who televised stories|Documentaries about the making of Doctor Who televised stories]], and then stuck it under [[:category:Doctor Who documentaries|Doctor Who documentaries]].  But I don't really remember what all the other new cats were. Could you please either attach them to [[:category:Doctor Who documentaries]], or give me a list of them?  We don't want to lose these categories that ''appear'' to have been made, because they have a blue-link, but actually ''haven't'' been made.  Thanks.  {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}&nbsp;<span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">'''15:54:56 Fri&nbsp;'''12 Aug 2011&nbsp;</span>
Gah, I always forget that. Pretty big issue, considering that I intend to create quite a few new articles in the near future. Thanks for the reminder! Sorry about that.
:p.s. Why the name switch?  Because there are actually ''other'' kinds of "making of" docs.  [[Beyond the Vortex]] is a "making of" for the McGann/Sheridan stuff, [[Torchwood Declassified]] is a making of for Torchwood televised stories, and there's supposedly some kinda making of documentary on the K9 Series 1 DVD — just for a start.  So a name was required that was specifically DW, specifically about TV stories.
:::Heya :) The p.s. was just meant to clarify why I changed the name of the cat from [[:category:"Making of" documentaries]]. I felt it might not have been obvious why such a long name was required in replacement.  I wanted to point out that there were DW documentaries, which weren't visual, and that there were visual documentaries, which weren't about DW, hence making [[:category:Documentaries about the making of Doctor Who televised stories|Documentaries about the making of Doctor Who televised stories]] the clearest expression of the contents of the category.


:::As for why I was asking you for a list, rather than just relying on [[Special:WantedCategories]], well, it's because [[Special:WantedCategories]] isn't all that reliable. First of all, it deals with cached material, so it's not up-to-date info.  Also, with this godforsakenly asinine "everything with the word 'category' in front of it is a blue link" idea, the potential for "false" wanted categories is greater.  For instance, you had mistakenly created [[:category:"Making of " documentaries]] on one page.  Because you got a blue link, you didn't notice the extraneous space you put in there between ''of'' and the closing quotation mark.  So the reason for requesting you to perform the actual category creation (or to provide me with a list) was explicitly because I wanted you to take care of it, or for you to give me a list of the precise names you wanted to use.  But the main reason was that '''I don't trust WantedCategories anymore.''' {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}&nbsp;<span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">'''17:44:31 Sun&nbsp;'''14 Aug 2011&nbsp;</span>

Hi. Terribly sorry, I just saw that you and another two users have posted a notice about my misusing the categories system. I've read the site rules and I'm pretty sure I understand. Sorry for the inconvenience, and sorry for not noticing your post on my talk page. Thanks for clearing up my mistakes. [[User:TheAnonJade]]

Hey there. I saw you deleted my recent page before I'd added information. I was midway through editing it; it's just that  creating content on the page creation is cumbersome on my mobile device. I'd appreciate it if you'd give me a few minutes to write the information this time round.

Hi again. I'm sorry for the trouble. I can't view the full edit page on my device, so I have no idea why the article is empty once I complete the edit. I can look at it at home if you're willing to wait, or if not could you take a look at [[Virtor]] and see what mistake I've made. I've put the information in there somewhere, but it's not showing at all when I publish. Sorry, I'm not used to editing via my phone and I won't do so in the future. Sorry and thanks.

Hey there,
I'm headling offline now but I've noticed that some unnamed user had edited the [[Cloister Bell]] page. So out of everyone's interests, I tidied it up. It seemed s/he didn't understand I was helping and reversed it again. I just tidied it up again but if you could keep an eye out so that he doesn't feel the need to leave trails of terrible English on more pages, it'd be appreciated.
If I remember tomorrow, I'll try to clean up that page since it does have quite a lot of bullet points haha.
Thanks mate,<br>

==Multiple images==
== Prison ==
There is a discussion concerning the Doctor image, but it's really in the middle of a very long discussion that you need to trawl through to find. 


There should be some form of discussion on the Doctor's page about this, explaining why it was removed and maybe (somehow) summarising what we've discussed so far. We seem to have come to an agreement/lack of further discussion on the Talk:Master concerning the image, so that's something.
Thanks for creating this page. I'm working sporadically on the Wanted Pages, and it's nice to see one of the biggies (with connecting links, that is) created. Cheers!  :) ----[[User:Ebyabe|<span style="color:purple">'''Ebyabe'''</span>]] [[User Talk:Ebyabe|<span style="color:green"><small>'''(talk)'''</small></span>]] 16:39, September 20, 2014 (UTC)


But if we're to address all the other articles with multiple images; Borusa, Romana, Rassilon and whomever else we're got around maybe a Forum topic would be best.
== Fan fiction ==
Eh, hello there. I have a proposal for you and the wiki here! I have just gained control over a DW fan fiction sight and would like to know if you'd like to start a partnership with me and the wiki, perhaps you could mention us on the home page saying "please do not upload fan fiction here, go to -here- instead. What do you think? Would you like to chat about it? {{Unsigned|Bloxxasourus}}


I thought that considering the length of the Talk:The Master discussion and its focus on the Master article/image that restoring the images until we had a definite answer was best, though feel free to remove the multiple images from all of the articles pending a full discussion in the forums.
Alright, that's fine! {{Unsigned|Bloxxasourus}}


If you think we need a full discussion in the forums I'll start one and point towards the Master discussion and we can go from there and work something out. Or is there enough in the Master discussion to work out a policy for the other articles? --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] / '''[[User talk:Tangerineduel|talk]]''' 15:24, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

== August change of featured articles ==
 
Hey, I know you're kinda mulling over big changes to the featured article thing, but I just couldn't wait another day on the switchover.  I'm so tired of seein' Amy in the Pandorica on the front page.  I considered all those articles that were under discussion at the current nom page, but I ditched them for reasons stated in the revision note.  Basically, all three candidates were unsuitable, so I picked another one, featuring something we've never put on the front page before:  a studio.  It's only for the remainder of the month, anyway.  Hope you don't see this as a usurpation of whatever you got goin on with the featured article process. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}&nbsp;<span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">'''19:36:36 Thu&nbsp;'''18 Aug 2011&nbsp;</span>
 
==Feature article==
Do you mean we (each admin) select 5 articles and suggest them and the from those 5 x (however admins we've got) we have a list of articles we think should be featured and then we have to cull those (let's say 25 articles) down to 5 that will be on the feature article page?
 
Or are we all meeting on a page (maybe not a forum page if it's ''just'' an admin level discussion) and then suggesting 5 articles in another method? --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] / '''[[User talk:Tangerineduel|talk]]''' 15:25, August 19, 2011 (UTC)
 
:Yep, there's good, or you can make it a sub-page of that if we don't want anyone mistaking it for an 'everyone' discussion.

== Stories set in the  <whatever timeframe> ==
 
Thanks for helping out with the timeline stuff.  However, do take care with categories about the temporal setting of stories.  All of these are ''out of universe'' categories.  So a category like [[:category:stories set in the 1830s|stories set in the 1830s]] (an out of universe category) '''would not''' go in [[:category:1830s]] (an in-universe category).  Remember, since stories are out of universe, all categories about stories are also OOU.  Likewise, [[:category:stories set in the United States]] doesn't belong in [[:category:United States of America]], nor [[:category:First Doctor stories]] in [[:category:First Doctor]].  The division between OOU and IU is one of  the '''cardinal''' rules of the category tree structure, violated in only a very few circumstances.  Thanks :) {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}&nbsp;<span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">'''22:53:58 Fri&nbsp;'''19 Aug 2011&nbsp;</span>
 
== The "Lets Kill Hitler" page ==
 
Dear Skittles the Hog,
 
Just to let you know, on the ''Lets Kill Hitler'' page it says the rumour was started by the ''Daily Mail,'' but it was started by the ''Daily Mirror'', so you could change it.


Hi there.
I just wanted to bring something to your attentions. There are currently two pages about the same thing- [[Gaffbeque]] and [[Gaffabeque]] (regarding the foodstuff mentioned in [[Bad Wolf (TV story)|Bad Wolf]]).
In the episode, as you'll of course know, it's pronounced "Gaff-a-beque" rather than "Gaff-beque". Is it possible to merge the two pages under the name "Gaffabeque" and use the information on that page since it's more lengthy. Also, we'd need to change the link on the page [[Lucifer]].
Sorry to intrude on your busy patrolling but it's been doing my head in and I don't want to break any rules by merging pages... I don't even know how to do it.
Thanks,
Thanks,

To Skittles the Hog. I just wanted to know why you deleted my page I set up for Steve Livesey. I cannot see any reason why, it was not offensive in any way at all. I was really proud to see my Fathers name mentioned on here. He was a brilliant artist, and I saw a link every time his name was mentioned so I started to set up a blog for him on that link, which people can do and other people have. but for some reason I am not allowed to. I would like to know why you deleted it please. There very little information on there, just the bare facts and a photo of him.  What is wrong with that then? Thought it would be a nice memorial and shows respect for his artwork.
== Re: Transit and Mechanic ==


Hi Skittles the hog,


Samantha Livesey
My source for the uncredited [[service mechanic]] actors was ''The Doctor Who Production Guide Volume Three: Cast and Crew'' by David Brunt and Andrew Pixley, published by the Doctor Who Appreciation Society in April 1998. I hope this helps. I'd also like to say thank you for your contributions to the page, as these have greatly improved it.


Well I thought that him being the artist, did actually have something to do with it. why bother mentioning his name and putting a link page on his name then at all ? its seems very petty. all I wanted to do was make sure he got recognition. perhaps someone could have had the decency to contact me about it. instead of just deleting it? That would be too courteous when it can simply be deleted. it was hardly offensive and  I cannot imagine what silly rules you have on here that make it a case of breaking regulations. honestly that is the most rediculous thing I have ever heard.
On the subject of [[Ford Transit]], I just thought I'd let you know that I accept and respect your decision to delete this page; admins — or is it caretakers now? — know best! I'll just write it off to experience. I'd also like to apologize for my attempts to counter the point on [[Talk:Ford Transit]]; this was the first time I had ever done such a thing, and I'm afraid I failed miserably in doing so — just as I did on [[Talk:Eeny, meeny, miny, moe]].  


== Cool Image ==
If only I'd called the 'Ford Transit' page 'Pickup truck' instead. It would probably have been less bother...


For your user! I talked to you on chat and want a badge so I am messaging you!{{Unsigned|Doctorwhovian}}
I've printed myself off a copy of [[Tardis:Valid sources]] and will keep it close by when creating pages in the future. I hope my creation of 'Ford Transit' didn't cause too much inconvenience.

== Wanted Pages question ==


Has it been made clear to me? Well, that's debatable. But back to the subject, why shouldn't it be capitalized? This is how we differentiate it from the other incarnations, so it ought to be capitilized as this is how we know who she is. As you've hated my actions, you took the easy way out, you locked the page. I would have done the same thing if I were an admin. So, back to the subject, we need the "s" to be "S", this is how we contrast her from the other selfs.

Why are you undoing all my edits? I'm referring specifically to the ones where I added various Doctors to the category "Individual Time Lords". Every other Time Lord with pages for different incarnations is in this category, so why should the Doctor be any different? I'd be grateful if you could tell me why you're undoing all of these rather than just reverting them without explanation.

Could you please let me know? If I've gone against policy, I've done it unknowingly, and not telling me is only going to make it more likely that I inadvertently do so again. I am making edits to this wiki in good faith, so please give me a reason for why you've undone my work. Just undoing edits without giving a reason doesn't help anyone.

If you're going to continue to undo my edits will you please provide a reason in the edit summary? When clicking "undo" the message "If you are undoing an edit that is not vandalism, explain the reason in the edit summary rather than using only the default message." is shown. You are not doing this.

:My last edit you undid was not speculation, but a fact that has in-universe proof. In the Eight Doctors, the UNIT Years Master regenerates into the Tersurus Master. In the Keeper of Traken, the Tersurus Master is revealed to be the 13th. Therefore, the UNIT Years Master is the 12th.
:Also, what is the purpose of the rollback tool? From what I can see, all it does is allows edits to be undone without a reason, which is very unhelpful.

:In regards to the "tidying up" on the Master (UNIT Years) page, from what I read the "Escape to Tersurus" section seemed to be saying the same thing multiple times. As I see it, all it needs to say is that Goth arrived on Tersurus to track down a TARDIS, and that the Master had regenerated into an emaciated corpse. Currently, there are about three separate statements saying this last thing. By all means, if you think it's better how it is, leave it like that, I was only trying to make it clearer.

== eh? ==
 
yeah man I did read the guidelines - but the line I'm talking about is specific to the episode, and I was trying to justify why it should be covered in the continuity section for the episode or somewhere like that. The same two lines used in episodes not that far apart would suggest a potential linked interest for the reader and can't be a coincidence - not when it's a concept mentioned so often in the recent history of the show, including one's with Moffat involvement. I'm guessing if you'd have read my comment you would have seen that (surely you couldn't have done in that short period of time - I wanted to make more clear why a small point could be made in the article and how it was justified in terms of article write ups - went to edit it within seconds of posting it had disappeared!).
 
 
What gives? if you don't want article input, why not just go and write articles on episodes on a blog or something rather than call it a Wiki when really it isn't if so constricted.... I'm going to gb2 en:wiki I think and improve their episode articles instead seen as you're not willing to even accept some input on stuff for article inclusion.. ta ta!

== First Doctor Myths and Discrepancies ==
 
Considering the paragraph I edited begins with "This incarnation of the Doctor seemed unfamiliar with the Daleks..." I think the Eleventh Doctor's reference to the ''Emperor Dalek's New Clothes ''wasn't a "minor point" at all. It's certainly less tenuous than what was left in.

==The Master UNIT years merged==
Hey, I've merged The Master (Tersurus) with [[The Master (UNIT years)]], but I've left it mostly unmerged as you mentioned in chat yesterday that you were working on a merged form, the Tersurus article is at the bottom of the article. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] / '''[[User talk:Tangerineduel|talk]]''' 15:09, September 7, 2011 (UTC)
 
== Double Categories (Torchwood) ==
 
After what has been explained to me about how pages should not be put in category "B" if they're already in category "A" which is a sub-category of B, I was looking at the Torchwood articles, and noticed that every single episode is in the category "Series # (Torchwood)" but also in the category "Torchwood television stories". All the "Series # (Torchwood)" categories are sub-categories of "Torchwood television stories" (and rightly so).
 
So from my understanding, the individual articles should 'not' be categorised under "Torchwood television stories" as they are already there under "Series # (Torchwood)". I decided against remedying this myself though, as since this was the case for all 40-odd episodes I thought there may be a reason (unknown to me) for it.
 
I mentioned this on the Talk Page (http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Category_talk:Series_4_(Torchwood)_stories), but this is now miles down the recent wiki activity page and it doesn't seem to be a page that many people would visit, so it seems unlikely that anyone would see my comment for a considerable while.
 
I thought I'd let you know as you have far more understanding of this than I do. I'd appreciate it if you could get back to me at some point (no rush) and let me know whether this should remain as is (and if so why) or if it should be sorted.

:Ok, that makes sense. The only other kinds I've noticed are:
 
:1) Pages categorised under (e.g.) "Human students" and also "Students".
:  I removed the "Student" category as it was already there under "Human students".
:2) Pages categorised under (e.g.) "Stories set in the 1990s" and "Stories set in 1994".
:  I removed the "Stories set in the 1990s" category as it was already there under "Stories set in 1994".
:3) Pages categorised under (e.g.) "Stories set in London" and "Stories set in England".
:  I was about to remove "Stories set in England" because it was already there under "Stories set in London".

==Uncategorized files==
The licensing of all images in [[Special:UncategorizedFiles]] has been completed.  To the extent that there are images left there, they are most likely simply waiting for a cache update to whisk them off the page.  By no later than Wednesday the caching will have cleared away any remaining stragglers. 
 
I have taken some time to manually (well, semi-automatically, let's say) affix the proper licenses to a great many of the pictures that used to be there.  From Wednesday forward, all pictures discovered in UncatFiles will be subject to completely automatic deletion.  A number of warnings have been placed on the wiki to this effect.  You may direct users to [[Help:Files]] should they come to you with the question, "What happened to my file?" 
 
I plan to implement an automatic run more or less when I feel like, but on a weekly basis when any of our shows are in season; at least monthly when not.
 
[[user:Doctor Who 63]], far and away the biggest offender, has now been put on what I would call a "final warning".  If he uploads even a single new picture without a license, there are certainly adequate grounds to block him.  I would suggest a block of no more than a week at first, just to let him or her that we are '''completely serious''' about needing image licenses.  His latest offense comes from 4 September, well and truly after two or three warnings from TD. If he had ever acknowledged TD in the past, to let us know that he was having problems understanding what to do, the case would probably be different.  As he's been asked several times, and yet continues to do break the rule.  Yes, his behavior is being aided by the "add a photo to this gallery" bug, but since he/she won't respond we're left with only the option of taking some overt action.  Again, you'll be looking for any uploads after 11 Sept without a license.  Thanks.  {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}&nbsp;<span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">'''23:03:04 Sun&nbsp;'''11 Sep 2011&nbsp;</span>

Problem: the notion of holiday or leisure planets encompasses (as of now) two separate pages and two categories (one of which is mine--mea culpa).

I see that you have reverted my editing on BLACKTHORNE GASWORKS with the comment that it is all right to change the text so it is grammatical, but not to "cut out any information". While it is true that I cut out the fact that the Doctor and Penny used "her key"  to enter by the kitchen "door", I believe your reinstatement of the bits is a mistake. How, I wonder, is this relevant to the article itself, which is BLACKTHORNE GASWORKS? The relevant details are its name, its location, its time, that Penny Chapman worked there and used it to hide her whatsits, that the Doctor Penny and the other individual had a fight on its roof. What happened to those people outside its confines is not important and if anyone cares, the proper place to look is in the article on the comic strip it appeared in. I honestly believe that there is a strong tendency to get caught up in details here and miss the main details.  Part of it is that articles on specific subjects are created by simply taking large swaths of text that mention the subject at hand and not bothering to edit those down to relevant information. Bigger isn't always better.  Sometimes it's just more confusing. I do not expect you to reinstate my editing, but I do ask that you think about what I have just written.

Well, the problem is, although sometimes one picture is fine, this is most certainly NOT one of those cases, as an image of the "New Daleks" is far from representative of the Daleks as they appear throughout the series. It's like including an image of the Eleventh Doctor as the main picture for the "Doctor" article, or just a picture of the Mondas Cybermen for the Cybermen's page. See where I'm getting at?

Victory is yours[[edit source]]

You'll be happy to know you've effectively won a long-standing debate on an MOS issue. See T:SPACING, paragraphs two and three, for more. Even as we speak, the bot is now systematically ensuring that every full stop has only one space after it. (I can't bring myself to say it's the actual rule, though. I won't do it. I won't, I tell you. You can take the practical victory. Fine. But too many of our ancestors got marked off in their typing classes for using one space to say that it is theoretically wrong to put two.)

Image rules cheat card[[edit source]]

I'm noticing more and more instances of people uploading pictures which are, according to agreed practises, flawed in some way. I'm thinking that part of the reason might be that we haven't put it all together on one page, so I've created T:ICC, or Help:Image cheat card. It's kind of in the vein of the Help:Spelling cheat card — just a quick run-through of the big points about image usage. Let me know if you think it could be improved.

Images by story categories[[edit source]]

Please be aware that images by televised story and images by comic story are now completely filled out with subcategories for each and every story of that type. So if you have an image from say, Thinktwice, you'll want to make sure that you put it in Category:Thinktwice comic story images. Or if you have something from The Mind of Evil, please ensure it gets into Category:The Mind of Evil TV story images.

These images by story categories are, of course, in addition to any other categories which may be appropriate, such as ones from Images by character, Images by object, or images by species.

Images by story will continue to grow over the coming weeks to include other media, but comics and TV were deemed the highest priority, since the vast majority of images will come from these two visual media.

Also, if you haven't noticed it for now, TV story pages now all have a little tab at the top left labelled "images". Clicking it takes you to the relevant category, so that you can quickly view our repository of images from that particular story All stories will eventually have this sort of link. Longer term, individual charactes might also have such a link.

In May 2011 I edited the Nyder page to remove what I thought was some sort of fan fiction user "99.116.249.117" had mistakenly added. However having just looked at some equally baseless contributions to entries such as Kate Yates and Thalek I now think 9.116.249.117 was a vandal. Zerinza talk to me 18:01, April 5, 2012 (UTC)

Christmas cheer[[edit source]]

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!

Hi. Terribly sorry, I just saw that you and another two users have posted a notice about my misusing the categories system. I've read the site rules and I'm pretty sure I understand. Sorry for the inconvenience, and sorry for not noticing your post on my talk page. Thanks for clearing up my mistakes. User:TheAnonJade

Page: Virtor[[edit source]]

Hey there. I saw you deleted my recent page before I'd added information. I was midway through editing it; it's just that creating content on the page creation is cumbersome on my mobile device. I'd appreciate it if you'd give me a few minutes to write the information this time round. Thanks. User:TheAnonJade 16:32, 05/09/14.

Hi again. I'm sorry for the trouble. I can't view the full edit page on my device, so I have no idea why the article is empty once I complete the edit. I can look at it at home if you're willing to wait, or if not could you take a look at Virtor and see what mistake I've made. I've put the information in there somewhere, but it's not showing at all when I publish. Sorry, I'm not used to editing via my phone and I won't do so in the future. Sorry and thanks. User:TheAnonJade 16:46, 05/09/14.

Thanks very much. It's turned out to be a nightmare. As I'm idle, I'll carry on with a couple of minor edits if I spot anything, but I definitely won't be doing anything complicated on my mobile in future. Thanks again. User:TheAnonJade 16:55, 05/09/14.

Teeny weeny message about Cloister Bell[[edit source]]

Hey there, I'm headling offline now but I've noticed that some unnamed user had edited the Cloister Bell page. So out of everyone's interests, I tidied it up. It seemed s/he didn't understand I was helping and reversed it again. I just tidied it up again but if you could keep an eye out so that he doesn't feel the need to leave trails of terrible English on more pages, it'd be appreciated.

If I remember tomorrow, I'll try to clean up that page since it does have quite a lot of bullet points haha.

Thanks mate,

Fan fiction[[edit source]]

Eh, hello there. I have a proposal for you and the wiki here! I have just gained control over a DW fan fiction sight and would like to know if you'd like to start a partnership with me and the wiki, perhaps you could mention us on the home page saying "please do not upload fan fiction here, go to -here- instead.

Gaffabeque vs Gaffbeque[[edit source]]

Hi there. I just wanted to bring something to your attentions. There are currently two pages about the same thing- Gaffbeque and Gaffabeque (regarding the foodstuff mentioned in Bad Wolf).

In the episode, as you'll of course know, it's pronounced "Gaff-a-beque" rather than "Gaff-beque". Is it possible to merge the two pages under the name "Gaffabeque" and use the information on that page since it's more lengthy. Also, we'd need to change the link on the page Lucifer.

Sorry to intrude on your busy patrolling but it's been doing my head in and I don't want to break any rules by merging pages... I don't even know how to do it.

Thanks, TheFartyDoctor Talk 12:33, October 30, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Transit and Mechanic[[edit source]]

Hi Skittles the hog,

My source for the uncredited service mechanic actors was The Doctor Who Production Guide Volume Three: Cast and Crew by David Brunt and Andrew Pixley, published by the Doctor Who Appreciation Society in April 1998. I hope this helps. I'd also like to say thank you for your contributions to the page, as these have greatly improved it.

On the subject of Ford Transit, I just thought I'd let you know that I accept and respect your decision to delete this page; admins — or is it caretakers now? — know best! I'll just write it off to experience. I'd also like to apologize for my attempts to counter the point on Talk:Ford Transit; this was the first time I had ever done such a thing, and I'm afraid I failed miserably in doing so — just as I did on Talk:Eeny, meeny, miny, moe.

If only I'd called the 'Ford Transit' page 'Pickup truck' instead. It would probably have been less bother...

I've printed myself off a copy of Tardis:Valid sources and will keep it close by when creating pages in the future. I hope my creation of 'Ford Transit' didn't cause too much inconvenience.

I await your reply with great interest. -- Freddie R. Aldous ☎ 17:06, November 3, 2014 (UTC)

Wanted Pages question[[edit source]]

I am seeking advice. Or advise.  :)

I'm working through the WantedPages, and there are some that are, I believe, not really wanted. Like User blog:Magic Afro, BFBS and Template:Str index/logic. I'm not linking them, as that would make the problem worse. Might it be possible to delink them on the pages they are at? Which are often talk pages and Howling forums. Any help would be appreciated.

Suggested rename/redirect[[edit source]]

Am I able to suggest a rename for the page Kpachoдap? It should be changed to Краснодар in order for it to be correct. Also, should we set up a redirect from Krasnodar to here, as it's a real town? I just need to know so I can start the Welsh translation of the page and link them up.

Dalek Prime[[edit source]]

Hi! So this is going to be a blast from the past, but nine years ago, you were the one who added the presence of a "Dalek Prime" in AUDIO: The Four Doctors as a continuity point referencing the Dalek Prime from PROSE: War of the Daleks. Whether that actually is meant to be the same Dalek Prime is one of the many issues under discussion in my Thread:257167, so your input, among others', would be appreciated. --Scrooge MacDuck ☎ 14:04, September 15, 2019 (UTC)
