Hey! No offence, but I reverted your edit to [[User talk:LauraBatham]]'s talk page because it could potentially be construed to be doxxing, of the same good-faith-sleuthing-going-a-bit-too-far variety you might recall from the ''[[10,000 Dawns (series)|10,000 Dawns]]'' drama. I think you may well have been correct on the facts, but unless the person under discussion more explicitly signals their identity, you ''should not'' make such conclusions and put them on the Wiki.

:Epsilon, I fear you do not understand. This is not a ''factual'' question. Whether you are ''right'' in your deduction is immaterial. Even if it is true (''especially'' if it is true), you '''must not''' equate the user and the public person on this Wiki unless the public person gives their consent to the equation being made. Accordingly I have also reverted your edit on ''my'' talk page. '''Please stop using these two names next to each other on the Wiki''', at least until the situation changes off-Wiki.

Archiving talk page

Hey, I see you tried to archive your talk page, but indeed it did not work properly. The first time I tried doing it, it also didn't work, and so I'll paraphrase the advice SOTO gave me: just copy all the content from your talk page and paste it into [[User_talk:Epsilon the Eternal/Archive_NUMBER]] (also adding a {{ArchPage}} on both pages). That way, it's guaranteed to work. Hope this helps ;p OncomingStorm12th 23:30, October 16, 2020 (UTC)

Link

Hi, just wanted to let you know that the link for the website on Salt Publishing didn't lead to their website, but instead, an error page. I took it out for now, since I don't know how to make it work. (I copy/pasted from the site link on Wikipedia, but it took me to the same place) Never Forget The Day The 456 Arrived 01:59, October 17, 2020 (UTC)

Yep, it fixed it! Thank you! Never Forget The Day The 456 Arrived 02:09, October 17, 2020 (UTC)

Inuse with no content

Just a heads up because you might have forgotten, Christmas Hotel has been inuse for ~5 days and has no content on it. Najawin 19:28, October 28, 2020 (UTC)

Sanbox Nine [sic]

Steven Moffat (Afterword) was definitely stated to be involved with the in universe series, he just wasn't stated to be involved in the TV section of it. No real difference from Paul Magrs (Bafflement and Devotion). He was involved in writing a book about the Doctor as a fictional character. Najawin 20:39, November 11, 2020 (UTC)

Obscured Props

That seems like we can just bring it up in Thread:272817 whenever we get back to that thread. Like, the only instance otherwise is at Tudor, but the entire point of the thread in question was about these sorts of meta jokes. Najawin 03:38, November 12, 2020 (UTC)

Re: Thinly-veiled Doctors

Well-noted, thank you! Could you tell me what story Paul Bowman comes from? I fear I've forgotten. – N8 (/👁️) 20:49, 24 November 2020 (UTC)

Ah, of course! How silly of me to have forgotten, especially since I'm the one who wrote that Behind the Scenes section on Claudia (Father Time). Thank you for the recap! – N8 (/👁️) 21:27, 24 November 2020 (UTC)

Moving pages

Hey. Just so you know, only admins are supposed to move pages, so you should've put a Speedy Rename on the Jones webcast page rather than moving it yourself. -- Saxon (✉️) 12:21, 25 November 2020 (UTC)

Iris Wildthyme Timeline

Hi Epsilon,

I think that it is your burden to start a discussion if you think that "there's likely an reason" that something is the way it is.

The change I made was to the order of a certain collection of stories - this same incorrect order had also appeared on the anthology page and therefore it is most likely, in my opinion, that the incorrect material was simply transferred from the anthology page rather than the order having any specific meaning of its own.

From what I have been able to work out the incorrect order matches the copyright list at the start of Lady Stardust. I think that someone incorrectly identified this as an accurate order of the stories in the anthology. RadMatter 22:17, 10 December 2020 (UTC)

Signature stuff

Hey, I was admiring your signature on Talk:Iris Wildthyme and, since I'm nosy, wanted to ask: did you copy it from a template somewhere? I noticed it links to your contributions via doctorwho:Special:COntributions/ rather than calling Special:Contributions/ directly, which I find interesting. I've been thinking about creating a signature template for myself in my userpage space, as mentioned at T:SIG LOOK, since I don't have much experience with template design and it seems like a fun exercise! – n8 () 07:06, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

Edit on LauraBatham's talk page

Hey! No offence, but I reverted your edit to User talk:LauraBatham's talk page because it could potentially be construed to be doxxing, of the same good-faith-sleuthing-going-a-bit-too-far variety you might recall from the 10,000 Dawns drama. I think you may well have been correct on the facts, but unless the person under discussion more explicitly signals their identity, you should not make such conclusions and put them on the Wiki. Scrooge MacDuck 18:38, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

Epsilon, I fear you do not understand. This is not a factual question. Whether you are right in your deduction is immaterial. Even if it is true (especially if it is true), you must not equate the user and the public person on this Wiki unless the public person gives their consent to the equation being made. Accordingly I have also reverted your edit on my talk page. Please stop using these two names next to each other on the Wiki, at least until the situation changes off-Wiki.
