User talk:Pluto2

Welcome to the Pluto2

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 only take the best!

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. -- CzechOut (Talk) 23:24, 2012 January 30

Recent edit to Tenth Doctor

Your recent edit to the Tenth Doctor article was rolled back because it contained a significant amount of material that appears to have been copied from the Doctor Who Reference Guide, which is plagiarism.

Any of the information that wasn't from the DW Ref Guide appears to have been copied from the Summary pages from this wiki. While you can copy information around on this wiki there should be different interpretations and presentations of information for different articles. Also note that for in-universe articles (which are any that don't have the real world tag on them that everything must be written in the past tense. Please have a look through our Manual of Style and our Help pages, and also have a look around the wiki at the various articles to familiarise yourself with how articles are written on this wiki. Thanks. --Tangerineduel / talk 13:41, January 31, 2012 (UTC)

I'm not sure what you're asking me to do.

I won't write, or rewrite your additions for you. As I said above you copied the information from the DWREF Guide and the summary pages.

If you want to add content to the pages you need to write the information based on your reading of the texts/watching of the shows/listening to the audios. Thanks. --Tangerineduel / talk 02:13, February 8, 2012 (UTC)

Christmas cheer

Happy holidays!

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!

Forum decisions

Hi! I feel like I need to make something clear to you. Forum decisions can only be closed by admins. If a discussion is not closed, it is still ongoing. Please do not take any actions based on still-open forum discussions. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎ 03:21, November 22, 2016 (UTC)

Input on a thread

You seem like the sort of person whose input would be helpful on Thread:206566. Fwhiffahder ☎ 22:31, December 16, 2016 (UTC)

I'm definitely getting involved. --Pluto2 (talk) 22:39, December 16, 2016 (UTC)

Re: Vienna

I'll tell you what User:Fwhiffahder said, since I deleted both his post and yours. He asked you to not derail the topic of the thread. I suggest you read both Tardis:Forum policy and Tardis:Discussion policy. And just to let you know, any thread to re-open the issue of Vienna will be deleted. That is a relatively new decision that took over a year to reach, and we will not be re-opening old closed threads just because new users who missed the original decisions want to re-open them. The (very few) admins on this wiki have too much work to do on the wiki and don't wish to keep having to rehash old decisions. Thanks for your attention. Shambala108 ☎ 02:21, December 19, 2016 (UTC)

Okay, sorry. Mind commenting on the Faction Paradox thread again? --Pluto2 (talk) 02:23, December 19, 2016 (UTC)

There were a ton of new posts added yesterday when I was not available, and I need some time to read all those before posting. In addition, since both User:CzechOut and User:Tangerineduel ruled against FP in the original forum threads, they should both be consulted here as very-senior admins who understand Tardis:Valid sources better than anyone who has yet commented on that issue. Shambala108 ☎ 02:32, December 19, 2016 (UTC)

That's okay! --Pluto2 (talk) 02:33, December 19, 2016 (UTC)

Unplaced IW stories

It's Iris. Making a timeline page at all shows remarkable stupidity on my part. It can be very difficult (read: deliberately impossible) to tell when a story is set. But, for a breakdown:

• A Hundred Words from a Civil War just says in the narration that Iris tried to get into the City. It could just be placed around Library Pictures, since they're in the same anthology.
• From Dog Days of Summer to God Engine Rhapsody are stories from Fifteen, which contains a variety of difficult-to-identify Irises.
• The last few are from The Perennial Miss Wildthyme. It also contains several Irises. I'm reading through it right now and updating the page as I go. Fwhiffahder ☎ 19:56, December 20, 2016 (UTC)

Dorian Gray

If there's one thing that is certain, it's that his name is "Gray" with an "a," not "Grey" with an "e." And I don't know why you're bringing this up. The inclusion thread was closed a while back. And the series has ended with a contradiction of Shades of Gray. Fwhiffahder ☎ 19:19, December 22, 2016 (UTC)
