• Dark Lord Xander •

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:

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:

Whoo! Audio Help!

Hey, just wanted to give a shout out to say it's nice to have a hand in maintaining the audio pages. Look forward to working with ya in the future. --Colleyd 03:15, 28 June 2008 (UTC) Woof.

You've done pretty good so far. I like the formatting on the main listing page. I think one of the things we might wanna focus on at the time being should be making sure all the pages have at least a basic cast listing, as well as the proper Usage tag on each cd cover image. :) --Colleyd 21:43, 28 June 2008 (UTC)Woof.
A project list page could be a good idea. We would probably need to tag it with a Maintenance tag of some sort, if one of us makes one. Though at the rate you've been editing, it might not be needed soon! :) --Colleyd 17:22, 1 July 2008 (UTC)Woof.

Praise

Just thought I'd put in a word of praise to both of you. Great work (especially putting the copyright tags on all those images), you've both Dark Lord Xander and Colleyd been doing a lot of stuff that's been on my 'to do list'...but haven't actually done for a while now. --Tangerineduel 17:44, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Just a question

Shouldn't on the BBV pages (great job, another thing that's been on my to do list...well maybe)...anyways, shouldn't in the series bit in the infobox, shouldn't it read Bill Baggs Video - The Stranger. Rather than the other way around, Main series it belongs to first then specifics (as it is on all the other pages)? Thanks. --Tangerineduel 08:20, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Re: Project Page

I'll see what I can work up. Will try to have one by either tonight or tomarrow. :) --Colleyd 16:22, 9 July 2008 (UTC)Woof.

BFA To-do List -BEHOLD! --Colleyd 23:39, 9 July 2008 (UTC)Woof.

Christmas 08

I'm not sure if you deleted the article, but it was a good call, I think. I was made skeptical by the listing of one of the humored "heir presumptives" as "The other Doctor" in the cast list that I deleted, and I check Outpost Gallifrey regularly and they'd post it if it were announced. I agree, I think the title will probably be announced as part of the Proms Special mini-episode. 23skidoo 16:36, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

Welcome notes

Hi, if you're going to add welcome notes to people's talk pages just use the template instead of copying all the wikitext it goes {{Welcome|(User's name)|(Siganture)}}. Thanks. --Tangerineduel 13:21, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Stubs

I guessed as much, and I didn't try to go crazy, I just went with my gut. Sorry if I made a mess -- AnimeNoKyouran 07:58, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Heh. I think it's a bit out of hand already... -- AnimeNoKyouran 08:06, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Vadal

MA?

The general known consensus among...well everything gives the prefix for the Virgin Missing Adventures as MA and NA for the Virgin New Adventures. It seems a little odd to create another. (Especially when MA has been used both in press like DWM and in other web publications). --Tangerineduel 12:58, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

That's fine. There's a list of abbreviations at Tardis:List of prefixes (it's also top of the list in the Category:Abbreviations category). It's got (I think) all the abbreviations used for this wiki on the list of prefixes page. (Also useful to prior to creating pages check out the 'What links here' link). --Tangerineduel 13:07, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

Re: About Template

Sorry, I couldn't find any other template for disambiguating articles with simmilar names (ie The Rani and Rani Chandra). Wasn't sure exactly how that's done here; is there another template? Or would you just put the whole formatting in the article? - Khlieeq 08:40, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. Wasn't sure before, although should the disambiguation page be created on "Rani" (which currently redirects to "The Rani") , or a new page — "Rani (disambiguation)"
