Thanks 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:

• How to edit a page
• Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
• Picture tutorial

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. Doug86 ☎ 19:40, September 18, 2015 (UTC)

Redlinks

Hi! Please don't unlink red links. They are not mistakes; they are pages that just have not yet been created but are wanted. Please see Tardis:Redlinks. Thanks! Shambala108 ☎ 20:53, October 5, 2015 (UTC)

Categories

Hi! Please go easy on adding categories. Most of the categories you've added are what we call "redundant". What does that mean? Here's an example: the category "English rivers" is in the category "British rivers" which is in the category "European rivers" which is in the category "Earth rivers". Therefore, if a page is in the category "English rivers", that automatically means it is in the other categories. If you add these other categories to the page, however, it causes difficulties for some of our automated systems.

Please read more about our category system at Tardis:Categorisation, Tardis:Categories, Tardis:Beware recursion, Tardis:Category tree and Tardis:Don't over-categorise. Thanks! Shambala108 ☎ 00:53, October 7, 2015 (UTC)
