This tag, placed by two different admin on two pages, requires a source. You removed it without providing one. If you would like the statement that the unused theme from the soundtrack has been used in BF audio(s) being added and the tag being removed, you ''must'' provide a statement confirming that [[Big Finish Productions]] hired [[Blair Mowat]] as the composer but, instead of asking him to compose a new variation of the theme, reused the variation he originally composed for [[British Broadcasting Corporation]]. Such a statement can potentially be found in interviews on the ''[[Class: The Audio Adventures]]'' releases, in [[the Big Finish Podcast]], in the ''[[Doctor Who Magazine]]'' or in interviews he gave elsewhere. As soon as you find a confirmation from a valid source, i.e., one complying with [[T:RW SOURCES]], you are allowed to add this information together with the source. Please do not remove the tag yourself. After you provided the source, please, leave a message for me (or any other admin involved with these pages) to ask them to remove the tag.

Hi, once again, only admins are permitted to move pages on this wiki. The rename tag is there to start a discussion; it's not a message that says anyone can move the page.

Revision as of 01:15, 26 December 2018
Animan2001Thanks for your edits! 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:
- the listing of all our help, policy and guideline pages
- our Manual of Style
- our image use policy
- our user page policy
- a list of people whose job it is to help you
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:Thanks for becoming a member of the TARDIS crew! If you have any questions, see the Help pages, add a question to one of the Forums or ask on my talk page. CzechOut ☎ 06:41, August 22, 2018 (UTC)
Videos
Hi, please note that per Tardis:Video policy only admins are permitted to upload videos to this wiki. Thanks, Shambala108 ☎ 22:03, August 31, 2018 (UTC)
Spoilers
This wiki has its own definition of spoilers that can be found at Tardis:Spoiler policy. Things that have been released are not spoilers. In a nutshell, this is an encyclopedia of Doctor Who. Things are not withheld from an encyclopedia to make reading more exciting. I would be happy to unblock you after you acknowledge that you read the policy and understand it. Also, if someone changes your edits, it is a better idea to ask why than to insist, especially when this someone is a more experienced user. They might know the policies better than you. Amorkuz ☎ 21:12, September 2, 2018 (UTC)
Images
Hi, it is necessary for you to read through all of our image policies. I've deleted dozens of images you uploaded, for several violations of policy. Please do not upload any more images until you've read the policies. You can find links to all of them at thread:148148. Thanks, Shambala108 ☎ 22:42, November 25, 2018 (UTC)
Page moves
Hi, please note that per Thread:128198, only admins are permitted to move/rename pages on this wiki. See the thread I cited for the proper procedure if you think a page needs renaming. Thanks, Shambala108 ☎ 02:07, November 28, 2018 (UTC)
Audio covers
Hi. I noticed that yesterday you added covers to Charlotte Pollard: Series Two, The New Counter-Measures: Series Two and Tales from New Earth (audio anthology). Could you please double check that they're official and not fan art? it's just that I've never seen them anywhere before. In fact, even with a google search, the only place I was able to find them was on a pinterest accoun which also contained loads of fan art covers. Thank you. OncomingStorm12th ☎ 19:44, November 28, 2018 (UTC)
Language
Hi, please note that directing profanity at another user is a violation of Tardis:No personal attacks. User:Amorkuz is just doing his job as admin by checking on the existence of sources for your claims. He never said you made it up, and your response on his page, which included profanity, is a personal attack. Please refrain from expressing yourself to other users this way. Thanks, Shambala108 ☎ 19:24, December 15, 2018 (UTC)
Sources
The template {{fact}} or {{source}} tag is described as
a template that is best thought of as a question. It might be better thought of as the please give a source for that statement template. If you see an article which makes an assertion, but fails to provide a source, you should generally try to find a source and edit it yourself. But if you don't have time, or don't know where to start looking for the source, just type in {{fact}} or {{source}} after the statement. This will draw other editors' to specific work that needs to be done on an article.
This tag, placed by two different admin on two pages, requires a source. You removed it without providing one. If you would like the statement that the unused theme from the soundtrack has been used in BF audio(s) being added and the tag being removed, you must provide a statement confirming that Big Finish Productions hired Blair Mowat as the composer but, instead of asking him to compose a new variation of the theme, reused the variation he originally composed for British Broadcasting Corporation. Such a statement can potentially be found in interviews on the Class: The Audio Adventures releases, in the Big Finish Podcast, in the Doctor Who Magazine or in interviews he gave elsewhere. As soon as you find a confirmation from a valid source, i.e., one complying with T:RW SOURCES, you are allowed to add this information together with the source. Please do not remove the tag yourself. After you provided the source, please, leave a message for me (or any other admin involved with these pages) to ask them to remove the tag. Amorkuz ☎ 20:45, December 15, 2018 (UTC)
Page moves part 2
Hi, once again, only admins are permitted to move pages on this wiki. The rename tag is there to start a discussion; it's not a message that says anyone can move the page. Thanks, Shambala108 ☎ 01:15, December 26, 2018 (UTC)
