Hi, just saw your edit on this page and had a quick question. I understand fully that the policy of this wiki is to use double quotation marks, as well as the parts about honourifics, and would have no hesitations were it a section of text that had been come up with by a user. However, in this case it came directly from the summary created by the publisher, word for word, symbol for symbol. Does this policy also cover changing the formatting of officially published information, since technically speaking, what is on the page now is not the official summary, but a slight modification of it.
Just wanted some clarification, thanks for your time. [[User:0003c9fe|0003c9fe]] [[User talk:0003c9fe|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 12:41, May 30, 2018 (UTC)

Thumbnail

What exactly does "the thumbnail of this image was too indistinct" mean, and why were my images removed for that? (JMC Red Dwarf 21:26, March 16, 2018 (UTC))

Images

Hey. uhm, i don't know how to change the file name without them not working. and i didn't specify the size of them User:Jantoshipper 18:49 17 March 2018

Wikipedia template

Hi, your message to User:Sam601 caught my eye and I was just wondering exactly why the wikipediainfo template can't be used on the Doctor pages. Is it because it is written from a real world perspective or because it has less information on it and is considered inferior?

If so, would it be okay to put the template on pages like The Doctor (The Girl Who Loved Doctor Who) since that page contains less information and since the events of that story happen in the "real world?"

P.S. On a completely unrelated note when I was typing your name into the search bar I noticed the user pages of the vandalistic accounts Shambala08 and Shambala weighs 2500 pounds still existed which you might or might not want to delete. Thanks for your time. --Borisashton 12:37, March 25, 2018 (UTC)

Carvaggio rename

Hi, I noticed you reverted my speedy rename template back into a rename on Carvaggio? Just wondering why -- I relistened to that bit from the audio, and it really sounds like "Caravaggio". – N8 13:55, April 6, 2018 (UTC)

Avoiding trouble

Hello, Shambala108, I hope you are doing well.

Listen, I'll cut to the chase. I've been having trouble with an unregistered user on pages Ninth Doctor, Rose Tyler and Martha Jones concerning whether the narrator for audios is a valid other voice actor, and removing the invalid Rachel MacFarlene from Rose's page. I've tried to be civil and explain how this wiki does not count narrators as voice actors unless its an in-character narration, but I'm not getting through to them, and I have a dissertation I should really being focusing on. I was hoping that you could step in and give your opinion before this gets out of hand. Don't worry, I'll support whatever decision you come too, as you have a far better understanding about this wiki than I do.

I just wanted to let you know before what always happens happens; they'll complain to an admin that I'm being unfair, I'll get blocked for a few months without an opportunity to defend my actions, they'll course trouble and get blocked themselves, and then I'll return and have missed out on editing new articles that I could have helped with. I really don't want that to happen again, especially since I plan to update the Eighth Doctor's psychological profile once my dissertation is done in a month's time, so I'm coming to you first this time to avoid that outcome.

Hope I'm not troubling you, Sincerely, BananaClownMan 15:10, April 25, 2018 (UTC)

UPD. Both users have been blocked for a day for an edit war across several pages. I would not call the behaviour of either of them civil. Amorkuz 15:44, April 25, 2018 (UTC)

Why is all my stuff that I'm adding and sourcing constantly being removed and no one else's is , even if I use other people's sources? And why is IMDb not a reliable source but facebook and some random guys from twitter are reliable sources ?
