| Welcome to [[Wikicities:About Wikicities|Wikicities]]. It looks like you've made a great start already. However, one problem is that you were claiming on [[Tardis:About]] that the content was under a Creative Commons license, when all Wikicities are actually under the GNU Free Documentation License. This isn't (yet) compatible with the CC. Also, the GFDL ''does'' allow commercial re-use of the content, so you can't add restrictions like non-commercial-use-only to this wiki. Please see [[Wikicities:Wikicities copyrights]] for details. I hope this isn't a problem for you. [[User:Angela|Angela]] 10:12, 17 Feb 2005 (GMT)

| Hello again. Please reconsider the protection of pages here at this early stage. It is likely to be off-putting to users if the first page they see is not even editable. [[Wikicities:Protection]] states that page protection is for highly vandalised pages, and since no vandalism has ever occured here, I don't see a need to start locking things down already.

| Hello, Freethinker! I'm so glad that someone has started a ''Doctor Who'' Wiki. I've been fiddling about on Memory Alpha for a while, and had been thinking that it would be great if there were a similar site for ''Doctor Who''. Looks like you thought the same thing! (I probably would have called it "Amplified Panatropic Computer Network", since like the [[Matrix]] a Wiki is composed of the wisdom of its members, and also since I tend to prefer the Holmes to the Bidmead... but I'm not complaining!)

| So what do you think should be the first order of business? Creating a structure for users, or filling in things like episodes? How do we develop conventions on things like episode citation (which is a mess at MA, in my opinion)? Should we get a start on pages like the [[Doctor]] or [[Gallifrey]], or is it more important to have more developed [[Help]] pages? Heck, should I ask these questions here or in the (currently blank) [[Tardis:Community Portal|Community Portal]]? So many questions... :) --[[User:Josiah Rowe|Josiah Rowe]] 04:40, 22 Feb 2005 (GMT)

| ==Moving pages==
| |
| Hello, you might want to consider moving pages rather than copying them to a new title and then deleting the old one. There is a ''move'' tab at the top of each article. For example, you could have moved [[List of television serials]] to [[List of television stories]], which would have left an automatic redirect, meaning anyone who had bookmarked the original page would be able to find the new page more easily. See [[Wikicities:Help:Moving pages]]. [[User:Angela|Angela]] 17:00, 23 Feb 2005 (GMT)

| ==Your kind sysop offer==
| |
| I might be interested (although my wiki skills are really only fair-to-middling). However, I can't guarantee a constant presence on the boards. My work schedule is such that I'm likely to have a week with lots of free time, then a couple of weeks with no time at all. (I'm an on-off moderator at Outpost Gallifrey's Forum for the same reason.)

|
| |
| So if you don't mind if I'm occasionally absent for a long stretch of time, I'd be happy to become a sysop (although I've still got a lot to learn about wiki stuff). --[[User:Josiah Rowe|Josiah Rowe]] 06:44, 12 Mar 2005 (GMT)
