Thanks for your edits! We hope you'll keep on editing with us. This is a great time to have joined us, because now you can play the Game of Rassilon with us and win cool stuff! Well, okay, badges. That have no monetary value. And that largely only you can see. But still: they're cool!

We've got a couple of important quirks for a Wikia 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're American, 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
• a list of people whose job it is to help you

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:

Pinball game

Hi! I can explain why I removed those categories, but it's a bit involved so I'll be sending you some links that you can read to get the full explanation.

Since Doctor Who doesn't have a canon, we don't try to define a canon here on this wiki. However, we do choose which stories to count for writing in universe articles. We have certain guidelines for those articles over at Tardis:Valid sources.

Basically, most (if not all) video games fail our guidelines. The pinball game, in particular, violates our guidelines because of this quote from the article: "The player decides before beginning a round of play which of the seven Doctors s/he wants to rescue." This means that gameplay will vary from user to user, so we don't have one specific narrative.

Therefore, this game being what we call "invalid", the regular categories don't go on the page. Please see another example of these categories being removed from another invalid game at [1] where User:CzechOut explains in the edit summary that these categories do not apply.

One other thing, please be sure to sign your name on another user's page when you leave a message. In general, my policy is that I don't answer unsigned posts, but I make exceptions when the user is new. You sign a post by typing ~~~~ after your comments. Thanks!
