Hello, Freethinker!  I'm so glad that someone has started a ''Doctor Who'' Wiki.  I've been fiddling about on Memory Alpha for a while, and had been thinking that it would be great if there were a similar site for ''Doctor Who''.  Looks like you thought the same thing!  (I probably would have called it "Amplified Panatropic Computer Network", since like the [[Matrix]] a Wiki is composed of the wisdom of its members, and also since I tend to prefer the Holmes to the Bidmead... but I'm not complaining!)
So what do you think should be the first order of business?  Creating a structure for users, or filling in things like episodes?  How do we develop conventions on things like episode citation (which is a mess at MA, in my opinion)?  Should we get a start on pages like the [[Doctor]] or [[Gallifrey]], or is it more important to have more developed [[Help]] pages?  Heck, should I ask these questions here or in the (currently blank) [[Tardis:Community Portal|Community Portal]]?  So many questions... :) --[[User:Josiah Rowe|Josiah Rowe]] 04:40, 22 Feb 2005 (GMT)

Welcome to Wikicities. It looks like you've made a great start already. However, one problem is that you were claiming on Tardis:About that the content was under a Creative Commons license, when all Wikicities are actually under the GNU Free Documentation License. This isn't (yet) compatible with the CC. Also, the GFDL does allow commercial re-use of the content, so you can't add restrictions like non-commercial-use-only to this wiki. Please see Wikicities:Wikicities copyrights for details. I hope this isn't a problem for you. Angela 10:12, 17 Feb 2005 (GMT)

Lots to do, where to begin?

Hello, Freethinker! I'm so glad that someone has started a Doctor Who Wiki. I've been fiddling about on Memory Alpha for a while, and had been thinking that it would be great if there were a similar site for Doctor Who. Looks like you thought the same thing! (I probably would have called it "Amplified Panatropic Computer Network", since like the Matrix a Wiki is composed of the wisdom of its members, and also since I tend to prefer the Holmes to the Bidmead... but I'm not complaining!)

So what do you think should be the first order of business? Creating a structure for users, or filling in things like episodes? How do we develop conventions on things like episode citation (which is a mess at MA, in my opinion)? Should we get a start on pages like the Doctor or Gallifrey, or is it more important to have more developed Help pages? Heck, should I ask these questions here or in the (currently blank) Community Portal? So many questions... :) --Josiah Rowe 04:40, 22 Feb 2005 (GMT)
