Welcome to the Tardis:About Thisismyrofl

Thanks for your edits at Doctor Who Wiki! We hope you'll keep on editing with us. This is a great time to have joined us, because now you can play the Game of Rassilon with us and win cool stuff! Well, okay, badges. That have no monetary value. And that largely only you can see. But still: they're cool!

We've got a couple of important quirks for a Wikia 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're American, 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:

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:

Remember that you should always sign your comments on talk and vote pages using four tildes like this:

Not sure what you're talking about with respect to our inter-language linking being in "disarray". We have all the combinations you speak of. I've been very careful to request every possible linkage. None of the things you suggest in your post are true. We do have formal inter-language linkage in all the combinations you suggest, which can be verified by looking through the archives at community:Community Central:Interwiki requests.

You may be suggesting, though, that there are no formal inter-language links for it, ko, pl, and tr. That's true enough. We don't put in a request until a wiki hits 30 articles, as is stated at Forum:Interwiki Requests.

We won't be linking to he.doctorpedia.wikia because it doesn't follow the url naming convention that we've established as the main Doctor Who Wikia wiki. Your url must be in the form he.doctorwho.wikia for us to adopt you as the "official" Hebrew Wikia. That URL is available, so it would be a simple matter of transferring over. This transfer would allow you to keep he.doctorpedia.wikia as an alternate link, but at the same time standardise your url. For instance, the current German wiki started as w:c:de.doctorwhotorchwood but is now w:c:de.doctorwho. Both things still link to the same place, but the use of languagecode.doctorwho makes it much easier for everyone to find your wiki. Even this wiki is actually w:c:doctorwho.

I hope you will change your URL, as we absolutely do want easy links to your wiki.

Finally, just to answer your request, thanks for the offer, but you do not have permission from the admin staff of this wiki to request interlanguage linkages on our behalf.
