Thanks for your recent edits! I'm Jimbo, your robot wiki representative! We hope you'll keep on editing with us. This is actually a great time to have joined, because we're now fully independent, and working on a host of new features!
We've got a couple of important quirks for a fan written 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 use another form of English, 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
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 an admin.
Warning[[edit source]]
Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions here, please review our vandalism policy and consider whether all your edits have been made in the spirit of that policy. Mini-mitch 00:31, June 6, 2010 (UTC)
To the user who placed this tag: This message is pretty general and should usually be avoided. Please use one of the messages at {{warn list}}, or write a brief message of your own that tells the user specifically how they can improve their editing.
Videos[[edit source]]
Hi, please do not add videos that are in violation of our Tardis:Video policy. --Tangerineduel 16:57, June 6, 2010 (UTC)
- Did you look at the Tardis:Video policy?
- To grab the section that relates mostly to the videos you've recently added: "This means if it was not uploaded by BBC Worldwide, one of its subsidiaries or another copyright holding entity it will be removed from the article page and deleted from this wiki."
- I did not however remove Video:Graham gets exterminated for spoiling Doctor Who - The Graham Norton Show preview - BBC One this video is on the BBC's YouTube channel and therefore can be used, but any other videos that have been uploaded by anyone other than BBC Worldwide, the BBC or one of their subsidiaries will be removed. --Tangerineduel 17:29, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

Semi-protected articles[[edit source]]
Hi, the articles you noted on my talk page are only semi-protected, if you've edited other semi-protected articles (such as those related to Series 5) you should be able to edit these also. Thanks. --Tangerineduel 14:12, June 18, 2010 (UTC)
Images[[edit source]]
Please don't add images of one species to the page of another. Daleks are not Kaleds. Also, production/publicity photos should not be placed in articles. Thank-you. The Thirteenth Doctor 20:08, July 5, 2010 (UTC)
Your input is needed!

Christmas cheer[[edit source]]
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!
