| Hello. I was just wondering if the investigation into [[User:Xx-connor-xX]]'s claims that his continual mistakes were caused by my correcting of his edits was still ongoing. It has been about two months and he has neither offered any evidence to support his claims or repeated them.

| :Thank you very much for setting my mind at ease. I did indeed misinterpret your earlier statement on the topic. While I certainly didn't feel as if I were under a cloud of suspicion for the last two months, I was a little concerned that an investigation was ongoing and that it might never be settled since [[User:Xx-connor-xX]] seemed to have absented himself from the Wiki.

| Hey, got your message on the other wiki. Thanks for the kind words. Just so you know, I have no problem with your actions; you weren't even a member of the wiki when the discussion took part in 2013 so you wouldn't be aware of my arguments. I just find that a blanket undoing causes more problems than it's worth; problems are going to get through, and sure enough, there were several familiar ones that got through almost immediately that I had to deal with.

| == Main enemy query ==
| |
| Hey there. Was wondering if perhaps you could clarify an issue for me. Regarding the story infobox, it says "main enemy". Given it is singular, that indicates only one enemy should go in the box no, just how only the main Doctor for the episode goes in the Doctor section and so on. The only issue I can see this creates is when a story has multiple enemies that have equal weight as could be argued in the case for [[Doomsday (TV story)|Doomsday]], even though I feel the Daleks are a greater threat to the Doctor than the Cybermen given he teamed up with them. Same could be said for the Zygons and Daleks in [[The Day of the Doctor (TV story)|The Day of the Doctor]]; Zygons start as enemy but story ends with only Daleks as enemies therefore Daleks are that episodes main enemy. Just bringing this up to avoid conflicts between what is and is not to be included in that bracket. Reckon you can confirm/deny my views on the matter? Thanks!

| On FANDOM wiki, my name is XxDachshundxX. On the 25/1/18, I believe you blocked me from my account because I named myself after my YouTube channel. I was also blocked because I posted links to my YouTube videos which are reviews on Doctor Who stories.
| |
| I looked up wiki guidlines and I have not broken any rule. I have also contacted FANDOM Support and spoken to the Senior Community Manager Chen Shen, who also says I have not broken any rules and says only you can unblock me.
| |
| If I have inadvertently done anything that breaks FANDOM rules, I am sorry. I am happy to change my name and not post any more YouTube links.

| == Testing infoboxes ==
| |
| Hey Amorkuz. I've been away from the wiki for a while (and not sure I'll be able to stick around as much as I used to, but intend to help when/where I can). In the time I was away, I looked around the coding for some infoboxes, and started trying to figure out how it all works. I made [[User:OncomingStorm12th/Sandbox 3|an early draft]] of an Infobox I wanted to do for a while, but now I'm not sure how to test it. When I type {{OncomingStorm12th/Sandbox 3}} in a article, it gives me a red link back. Would I need to create an acutal template to work around it, or is there some other way I can test it before moving the code away from my sandbox?

| ::Well, given I just adapted another infobox, I think the initial work is basically finished. I tested the infobox in [[2012 Olympics]]. The idea is that we use the infobox in non-conflictual events (where {{tlx|Infobox Conflict}} doesn't quite work). The list of parameters I used are located on [[User_talk%3ASOTO/Archive_7#Infobox_Anatomy|this page]]. I'm here mainly to ask you, when you have the time to do so, to give an overall look at the code, to see if there's anything that needs to be corrected, improved, or if you have ideas for other parameters.

| == Infobox Audio Series update ==
| |
| So, I started working on ''[[The Early Adventures]]'' and stumbled on a problem: the Infobox Audio Series only allows us to have 5 "|companion =" paramaters (which is, in ''most'' cases, more than enough). However, due to the nature of this series, the stories are scattered through the 1st and 2nd Doctor's adventures, meaning we get to see more than 5 companions, usually. I'm wondering if it'd be possible for you to change it to 7 (the biggest number of companions within a series of EA, in [[Series 1 (EA)|the first series]]).

| :Thanks; another thing I noticed, though: some parameters are auto-linking (producer, exex prod and script ed) while others (cover, music and sound) aren't.

Also, a problem I had today with a similar infobox: I tried to make a link on [[Series 4 (Torchwood)]] to [[Aliens Among Us (audio series)]], but just ended up with '''Among''' on the next field. Maybe having "|series 2=" etc. in there would be a way to fix it (I think making "Series 5 (Torchwood)" a redirect may be a bit misleading to some readers). What do you think?

| :::::Just another bit on "|prev 2=", etc: while I think it ''is'' good that "Doom Coalition 4" doesn't become "4" under this parameter, I think that dab terms should be hidden. For example, on [[The First Doctor: Volume One (audio anthology)]], we need a link to [[Series 8 (CC)]] (the previous series), but I believe we could have it display simply "Series 8".

| I'm not strongly opposed to changing it back to Infobox Merchandise. The reason I made the move to Infobox Audio Series was because I though they were the new norm for audio anthologies. This is, in my view, the only argument to keep them as they are now: being consistent with most anthology pages. But I don't think it's a big loss to switch back. The basic difference between them is the "X release comprising X stories, starting with X" on the top, anyway.

| With the ever-increasing number of ranges that Big Finish puts under "The New Series", we now need an update on the coding of [[Template:Navbox with collapsible groups]]. Currently, it accommodates 12 series, but with the release of ''[[Time War: Volume One (audio anthology)]]'', we reached 13.

| == Re: Faction Paradox ==
| |
|
| |
| Yeah, I know right?!? I'm 99% sure that this is a case of an author getting enthusiastic about a few ambiguously-worded references that would be better suited on their own pages -- say, [[Victoria McCrimmon]]. However, there's rather mysteriously no option to purchase the ebook from Obverse's website, and my physical copy hasn't arrived yet, so that's admittedly pure speculation on my part. I've reached out to the editor on their talk page (and also messaged someone on tumblr who may or may not be them) in order to get pictures of the relevant pages, so I can figure out what coverage would best fit wiki policy; in the meanwhile, I've gone ahead and reverted that edit. Hoping to get to the bottom of this quite soon. Thank you for the heads up! – [[User:NateBumber|N8]] [[User_talk:NateBumber|☎]] 11:42, March 22, 2018 (UTC)

| == Series 4 (BFTW) ==
| |
| Ok, it'll be a bit tricky to discuss this without giving away spoilers, but do we really need to keep the {{tlx|Spoiler}} tag on [[Series 4 (BFTW)]] now that ''[[The Death of Captain Jack (audio story)|The Death of Captain Jack]]'' has been released? I get the point of doing this with [[Series 10 (Doctor Who)]] and similar TV-series pages, because a lot of information is released in small chunks throughout the recording, and it'd be terribly difficult to find it all once the season was over, but this isn't the case for Big Finish's audio series. I was wondering if we could remove all spoilers the page currently has, and add them back once they stop being spoilers.

| |
| :Ok, I'll try to find a middle ground based on how we dealt with [[Series 10 (Doctor Who)]] around the time ''[[Thin Ice (TV story)|Thin Ice]]'' aired:([http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Series_10_(Doctor_Who)?oldid=2244378 Series 10] and [http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Thin_Ice_(TV_story)?oldid=2244351 Thin Ice] pages back then) there were already links pointing to the page and the page already had files, but the spoiler tag remained, because there was also information about unaired episodes.
| |
| :This way, users who arrive at [[Series 4 (BFTW)]] will be able to read about already-released stories, but they'll also be aware that there are spoilers on the page.

| |
| Thank you for informing me about the mistakes I've made to the cast lists regarding recurring and guest roles. I apologise for the mistakes; as far a changing some of the character names goes, I was merely attempting to make them accurate to the on-screen credit of that character. Such as swapping out 'The Second Doctor' for 'Dr. Who' as he is credited on-screen. In any case, that you for feedback, and I will try and act on it in the future.

| ==Audio ciffhanger list ==
| |
|
| |
| I would like to address a potential problem for the wiki that I feel needs approaching. On the article dedicated to a list of cliffhangers for audio stories, I noticed there were decisively few. I understand why and this is what I feel needs addressing. The number of audios production companies such as Big Finish Productions release on a regular basis make the possibility of writing all of the cliffhangers into a list on a single page to be nearing on ridiculous, as the number of cliffhangers for the nearly 240 audio stories in Big Finish's monthly range alone would total around if not over 720 cliffhangers. I just feel as if that is **WAY** too many points for one page. I'm say saying you have to do this, but I was wondering if it would be at all possible to narrow that list down by splitting that page into a number of different page, each under a different sub-section. Like I say, I'm not insisting, but I do feel as if it would be beneficial to the wiki as a whole.

| == [Edit wars] reply ==
| |
| I apologise if I stepped out of line, but I think there was a mistake on how I handled it. It was not my indent to come across as authoritative, my recommendation that the unregistered login or sign up was because I thought that it would be better to talk to them. I was unaware you could speech to unregistered user until I saw that they had talked in their own page.
| |
|
| |
| I'm also sorry if it looked like I was "instructing another user how to behave". I don't see how I was doing that though, so I'd appreciate it if you could inform me how I made things look that way, to better avoid doing so again in the future.
| |
|
| |
| As for the whole "narrators not voice actors" thing, I'll be honest; I'm not 100% sure if it is a policy. This wiki is so full of rules, I usually just wait until I break one to find out about it. It's the main reason why I went to [[User:Shambala108]], as she knows more about the rules than I do. Even if it's not a policy at the moment, the narrators have never been considered voice actors at the time of the event, so I just assumed that they weren't counted as such. Perhaps this incident will spark a policy on how to handle narrators in such capacity.
| |
|
| |
| And as for the talk page, I'll admit I messed up there. It never crossed to do that. Sorry.
| |
|
| |
| Hopefully, we don't meet in this scenario again, and will instead meet in times of debation.

| == About quotes? ==
| |
| Hi, sorry to bother, but what's the state of quotes on the wiki? From what I could see, the problem with those post-regeneration Doctor quotes was that they were quite early in pages with large infoboxes and tables of contents, thus creating big pockets of white space on some devices. [[Tardis:Quotes]] still currently says that "Quotations can be used within the text body of an article to emphasis a certain point or highlight a certain issue of the article's focus; often a quote can explain things better than we can ourselves." I'd describe the quote that was on [[The Doctor]] as falling within those guidelines. Pretty sure that quotes work fine on the mobile app, so is it a matter of a pending policy to outlaw quotes in order to prevent something like the post-regenerative quotes from happening again?

| ==Textless cover art==
| |
| Hi, I found something to do with images that I had a question about. Many of the Companion Chronicles story pages have textless cover art, which as far as I can tell have been sourced from the artists Flickr page.
| |
|
| |
| However, for the first 2 seasons, whilst the textless covers are still from the artists page, I'm unsure as to whether or not they should be on the wiki. If you compare them to the original covers, you'll notice that the banner is different, so technically speaking these aren't textless covers, as other content has changed. Is this fine, or should they be removed? Thanks for your time, [[User:0003c9fe|0003c9fe]] [[User talk:0003c9fe|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 10:08, May 21, 2018 (UTC)

| ==Goth==
| |
| At the time, I was basing that argument on ''[[Future Imperfect (short story)|Future Imperfect]]''. However, I'm no longer convinced of that. In retrospect, I think that the in-universe evidence is too tenuous for the Wiki to hold that Goth and Gulliver are one and the same. I do believe that this was the implication but there is obviously a big difference between an implication and a definite assertion as to a character's identity.

| == Target Books publications by year ==
| |
| Hello. I was/am working on the page for [[Target novelisation]]s, an the pages under [[:Category:Target Books by year]] came under my attention. Not only are they very outdated (with several file linking to deleted files), but also they are very unnusual on the wiki. As far as I'm aware, we don't have any other pages for stuff like that.
| |
|
| |
| And I believe that is a good thing. For casual readers, I believe, it'd be easier if all that information was placed under [[Target Books]], [[Target novelisation]], [[Target Books novelisations covers]] or the relevant novelisation/novel page, for the following reasons:
| |
| * All these cover galleries ''are'' present in the pages cited above.
| |
| * I'm working on completing a table with all [[Target novelisation]]s in the more usual style of tables (which these pages lack; their tables are also very unnusual)
| |
| * Publication history already is present in [[Target Books]]; at most, it could benefit from a bit of information from those pages, but I think that the page is already too long.
| |
|
| |
| So, in the end, those pages look really redundant. As I started to write this message, I was going to propose merging all of them into [[Target novelisation]] so I could refine the information. But as of now, I'm actually leaning towards the deletion of those pages, along with the {{tlx|Target years}} template. When you have the time, please let me know what you think. :) [[User:OncomingStorm12th|OncomingStorm12th]] [[User talk:OncomingStorm12th|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 20:34, June 2, 2018 (UTC)

| Hi and thank you for moderating this Fandom, I really appreciate your hard work and I'm sorry if I did something to increase your hard work instead of making it easier. In my defense, I can say I don't want to create or post new videos: I'm talking about offering a service that is fully legal. All YT videos have the option that let you add subtitles for free without doing anything against the owners: in fact each subtitle is moderated and checked before the final approvation. I warmly invite you to check for yourself, because I do understand is my word against yours. I for myself don't approve copyright violations, and I wouldn't post it if I was sure it was illegal. Again, it's just my word, and I see it's not much since the moment we're stranger to each other.

| That's all, I think I'll send you my further ideas before post them in order to avoid those nasty events. Sorry again. Have a great evening! Kind Regards,
