Thumbnail

What exactly does "the thumbnail of this image was too indistinct" mean, and why were my images removed for that? (JMC Red Dwarf 21:26, March 16, 2018 (UTC))

Images

Hey. uhm, i don't know how to change the file name without them not working. and i didn't specify the size of them User:Jantoshipper 18:49 17 March 2018

Wikipedia template

Hi, your message to User:Sam601 caught my eye and I was just wondering exactly why the wikipediainfo template can't be used on the Doctor pages. Is it because it is written from a real world perspective or because it has less information on it and is considered inferior?

If so, would it be okay to put the template on pages like The Doctor (The Girl Who Loved Doctor Who) since that page contains less information and since the events of that story happen in the "real world?"

P.S. On a completely unrelated note when I was typing your name into the search bar I noticed the user pages of the vandalistic accounts Shambala08 and Shambala weighs 2500 pounds still existed which you might or might not want to delete. Thanks for your time. --Borisashton 12:37, March 25, 2018 (UTC)

Carvaggio rename

Hi, I noticed you reverted my speedy rename template back into a rename on Carvaggio? Just wondering why -- I relistened to that bit from the audio, and it really sounds like "Caravaggio". – N8 13:55, April 6, 2018 (UTC)

Avoiding trouble

Hello, Shambala108, I hope you are doing well.

Listen, I'll cut to the chase. I've been having trouble with an unregistered user on pages Ninth Doctor, Rose Tyler and Martha Jones concerning whether the narrator for audios is a valid other voice actor, and removing the invalid Rachel MacFarlene from Rose's page. I've tried to be civil and explain how this wiki does not count narrators as voice actors unless its an in-character narration, but I'm not getting through to them, and I have a dissertation I should really being focusing on. I was hoping that you could step in and give your opinion before this gets out of hand. Don't worry, I'll support whatever decision you come too, as you have a far better understanding about this wiki than I do.

I just wanted to let you know before what always happens happens; they'll complain to an admin that I'm being unfair, I'll get blocked for a few months without an opportunity to defend my actions, they'll course trouble and get blocked themselves, and then I'll return and have missed out on editing new articles that I could have helped with. I really don't want that to happen again, especially since I plan to update the Eighth Doctor's psychological profile once my dissertation is done in a month's time, so I'm coming to you first this time to avoid that outcome.

Hope I'm not troubling you, Sincerely, BananaClownMan 15:10, April 25, 2018 (UTC)

UPD. Both users have been blocked for a day for an edit war across several pages. I would not call the behaviour of either of them civil. Amorkuz 15:44, April 25, 2018 (UTC)

Why is all my stuff that I'm adding and sourcing constantly being removed and no one else's is , even if I use other people's sources? And why is IMDb not a reliable source but facebook and some random guys from twitter are reliable sources ?

Trap For Fools

Hi, just saw your edit on this page and had a quick question. I understand fully that the policy of this wiki is to use double quotation marks, as well as the parts about honourifics, and would have no hesitations were it a section of text that had been come up with by a user. However, in this case it came directly from the summary created by the publisher, word for word, symbol for symbol. Does this policy also cover changing the formatting of officially published information, since technically speaking, what is on the page now is not the official summary, but a slight modification of it.

Just wanted some clarification, thanks for your time. 0003c9fe 12:41, May 30, 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for clearing that up, I'll be sure to keep it in mind when doing future summaries (and anything else that is copied). 0003c9fe 14:27, May 30, 2018 (UTC)

Thank you

I'm new here and I'm still figuring out the ropes. Sorry and thank you. Dedicatedlogic

Thanks

Thank you for your message and the explanation, I'm sorry for posting it there! Mirthetje 16:48, June 26, 2018 (UTC)

Series 11

I've got new information for Series 11. I know it was locked due to recent leaks, but this info is genuine from the BBC's Doctor Who site itself. --DCLM 21:28, June 26, 2018 (UTC)

3.2 Removed fanon

Hey, You recently deleted an edited page about Beatrice. Why is that?

St Michael's Church

Hi, could you remove the prop delete on St Michael's Church (real world) now? It gathered one reply from a user sharing similar views but its quite an obscure page so I doubt it will attract anymore attention.

To be honest I don't fully understand why you reinstated it after I removed it saying that they shared no relation. I get that one shouldn't generally remove prop deletes placed by an admin and that you should make a case on the talk page but there was no case to make. It's like merging John Hart (The Sea Devils) and John Hart (Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang) because they share a name. Thanks for your time. --Borisashton 11:31, July 7, 2018 (UTC)

SJA narrative trailers

Hi, I just bumped into these three pages: SJA series 1 (trailer), SJA series 3 (trailer) and SJA series 4 (trailer). The last one you labelled invalid. Probably, all of them should be treated the same. Should they all be made invalid? Amorkuz 22:33, July 8, 2018 (UTC)

Video Trailer

I added the video trailer for the audio Hour of the Cybermen to its page. It came from the official Big Finish Youtube channel. Other video trailers on other pages like Order of the Daleks have not been removed, so why was mine? Thanks. Omega3454 04:09, July 17, 2018 (UTC)

SJA Warriors of Kudlak

Hi there, I was wondering what I did wrong on the edits of Warriors of Kudlak (TV story). The changes that I made were reverted without a note of explanation, so I'd like to learn what it was that was done incorrectly. Thank you. Coldraught 00:22, July 23, 2018 (UTC)

Demonyms

Hello! About the demonym page you deleted earlier: I know generally there must be references from Doctor Who in-universe or out-universe to make an article, but I was based on something actually already in this wiki (the category, https://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Category%3ADemonyms).

Categories response

I positively give up editing here, I'm never going to get anything right! I'm just so tired of screwing this place up, while I'm trying to do right... Okay, I'm done. I'm sorry for messing up the categories and again breaking the wiki's policies. I won't go added categories anymore, since I clearly don't understand them; I'll leave that to other editors. But I really feel as if I should stop editing here. I'm clearly not contributing anything of worth if I'm making this many messes. I just can't deal with the stress and disappointment in myself over messing this wiki up for others with dodgy edit after dodgy edit. My apologies again and I hope I've not made you or any of the other admins mad with me.

Could you be a bit more specific with the issues you have? I'd be happy to explain any queries you have. --Borisashton 02:54, August 1, 2018 (UTC)

The Clocksmith's TARDIS

Hi. I was hoping that I can re-write the Clocksmith's TARDIS page with your permission. I'm asking because the last time it was uploaded it was deleted. Thank you for your time, I look forward to hearing from you. Hope you can't wait for the new series, I know I can't. --Saint2 14:50, August 4, 2018 (UTC)

It's about British words, I'm using Grammarly and I see the red. If you can, pm me about the British words that are right.

Crossed Lines does exist

Re-Categories Revisited

Sorry for reverting your edit, I just wanted to respond to what you said. Anyway, you said not to remove categories that are in The Game of Rassilon. I was pointing out that I had not removed any categories from the Game, I was only removing redundant categories.

Categories I removed: -Earth Battles -21st Century Earth-based conflicts -Dalek Conflicts -London History -Human Conflicts -Cyberman Conflicts -Torchwood -The Void -Battles

None of which are in the Game of Rassilon, all of which are super-categories to another category the article is in.

The Category: The Battle of Canary Wharf and The Category: Conflicts were the only two I left.

I appreciate that you know more than me about the wiki (kinda obvious) but your explanation for the reversion didn't seem relevant, so I assumed you thought I'd removed Conflicts (I hadn't).

If there's another reason it shouldn't change, please do let me know.
