Your account

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:

New Categories

Before creating new categories please discuss them on the forums. This will save any disappointment if the categories get deleted and will also save time and server space. The Thirteenth Doctor 22:46, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

Catagories

Sorry about not telling you with your permission can I continue.

• I'd leave a note in the forums first before making any more edits. Give people a couple of days to reply then if you get the all clear you can continue to add them. I would be in favour of having the categories, but it's not just up to me, the community has to decide together. You can start a new forum page discussing the category here. The Thirteenth Doctor 22:59, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

Fair enough oh and out of curiousate who is your favorotie doctor.

• I don't have a favourite Doctor the way that everyone else does. I don't compare them like others, but from the ones I've seen, each of them has a different reason that makes me like them. Eccleston was my first Doctor, so will always be cool to me and I can easily watch any of his episodes. Tennant was special because he was the first I got to see from beginning to end, regeneration from and regeneration to, and he seemed to form an emotional bond with the audience. Smith is just a plain great actor and his Doctor is funny and energetic, unlike the previous two. I love McGann, simply because of what he was like in such a small time frame and all the mysteries that surround his character. I've not seen much of the other Doctor's, so I can't really judge them, but I'm hoping to start watching the classic series soon. The Thirteenth Doctor 23:17, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

Categories

What happened to asking in the forum before creating categories? The Thirteenth Doctor 16:06, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry I forgot I will stop now and by the way why did you delete exterminated by the daleks category. (The Triad 16:10, August 19, 2010 (UTC))

• I didn't delete it. Someone else did. The Thirteenth Doctor 16:12, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

When I mean you I mean the wiki but why was it deleted?(The Triad 16:13, August 19, 2010 (UTC))

• It was most probably not thought useful. Nor had it been discussed before creation. The Thirteenth Doctor 16:15, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

Well I am new to this so I was wondering if you could ask the head of wiki if I could put categories and if they don't like them then they can be deleted.(The Triad 16:18, August 19, 2010 (UTC))

Please do not add / create categories such as 'Killed by the Master' they really are difficult categories to accurately fill. --Tangerineduel 16:22, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

As you wish.(The Triad 16:24, August 19, 2010 (UTC))
