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:

• 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 an admin.

It's nice to have yet another editor working on Faction Paradox articles. I think at this point there's more of us than there are wiki editors who have actually seen Class. With that said, when creating a page, please do not just copy and paste text from an already existing article. That's plagiarism, and a big no-no on fandom. In general we also try to keep citations at the end of paragraphs, and if there's an in-line citation, that's because we're usually citing two different statements and there's also one at the end of the paragraph. Also, all pages should have a category upon their creation, but our category system is a bit complicated for new users to understand, so don't worry too much about that one at the moment. (As a tip, source editor tends to be more helpful, I've found, but your workflow is your workflow.) As the welcome template says, we're glad to have you, and if you have any questions you can always ask an admin. (I know two of them are currently reading TBotW, and Scrooge has actually written for FP before.) I'm not one, but I'm always willing to help new users, and in general we're a friendly bunch with quite a few FP fans. Cheers. Najawin ☎ 09:49, 28 December 2022 (UTC)

The War King/Appearances

Hi there. You might want to compare your edit on The War King/Appearances to mine to clear things up. If you use rowspan, that field will cover as many rows as the number you put; for instance, you put rowspan=27 for some things even though there are only nine rows, which is one reason that it was messed up when you created it. I don't blame you, though. They're rather fiddly. Jack "BtR" Saxon ☎ 13:35, 17 February 2023 (UTC)

No problem at all. I thought I'd quickly do Dodo Chaplet/Appearances the other day since she's made so few appearances compared to other companions and it still took me an hour and a half. Jack "BtR" Saxon ☎ 10:39, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

Re: The Doctor's sonic screwdriver

I have not composed an OP, feel free to do so. To be honest I had forgotten about those sandbox pages all those months ago. As such they are not really developed to the level of pages that other users had made for the incarnations of the Master so wouldn't really be much useful.

Phoenix Court

Hi, I've been really enjoying reading your Phoenix Court-related pages, it's awesome to see that series get more coverage on the wiki! Just some quick notes I'd like to share:

1. "ref" tags are meant to indicate sources for our readers, not editing notes for other editors. If you want to leave notes to other editors like "find name", use this syntax: <!-- NOTE -->. That way it won't show up for readers.
2. I've created redirects for the Phoenix Court novels: Marked for Life (novel), Does It Show? (novel), Could It Be Magic? (novel), Fancy Man (novel). Please link to those redirects instead of Phoenix Court (series); this way we can use Bongo's citation template, and it'll also be less confusing if and when Phoenix Court is validated and we have actual pages for the novels.
3. Do you think we need separate subpages for this material? For instance, when I was wikifying content about Spiderweiss from a non-covered charity story, since that story was the debut appearance of Spiderweiss, I made the judgment call that this constituted a major appearance for Spiderweiss and thus the content should go on the main page with {{NCmaterial}}, not a subpage. I think the same might be true for Big Sue and the rest, so I've added a few {{merge}} templates here and there.

Looking forward to learning more about Pheonix Court through your wikification, and I hope you're well! – n8 (☎) 14:00, 13 May 2023 (UTC)
