Page move/rename

Hi! Please note that per Thread:128198 only admins are allowed to move/rename pages. Regular users do not have the ability to perform some of the steps. In addition, when you renamed Physical Assault Victim, you ignored the requested name change and gave it a name that violates our naming policies. Thanks for your attention.

Previewing edits

Hi! Please take the time to preview your edits before you hit publish. Several of your edits have removed categories from the articles. Because it is easier to undo such edits rather than add the categories back manually, several of your edits have been undone to restore the categories. Thanks. Shambala108 05:08, September 4, 2015 (UTC)

Editing policies

Hi! I've had to clean up the majority of your edits, and I'd like to leave you with a list of policies to read so that your edits/page creations can be acceptable to the wiki. Please take some time to read the following policies:

In addition, please read T:NO RW to make sure you understand the limits of what we allow on articles about real world people, places, etc. And once again I have to remind you to proofread your edits. You are still removing categories during several of your edits. Thanks. Shambala108 00:28, September 7, 2015 (UTC)

Karn image switch

Hi! I took the image of Karn from Prologue and made it the one for the infobox. The old one is still on the Karn article but now moved to the area covering the Last Great Time War. Hopefully this sorts things out. I appreciate that you tried to switch the images. It's just that the old one illustrates an important moment from one story and it's better to upload a brand new image and keep the old handy! Thanks anyway! --Thunderush 22:00, September 11, 2015 (UTC)

Page move revisited

Hi! I've already asked you once to leave the page moves to admins. Please do not move pages yourself. Thanks. Shambala108 14:46, September 12, 2015 (UTC)

Real world

Hi! Please carefully read T:NO RW. Many of the pages you've created have information that was never mentioned in a DWU story. We don't allow real world information on in-universe articles. Thanks. Shambala108 04:25, September 18, 2015 (UTC)

Policies

Hi! It's great that you are so enthusiastic about editing on this wiki. However, almost every edit you make or page you create has violated at least one of our policies. I need you to take a break and read through all the policies I've linked above, and take a look through Category:Policies as well. I don't have time to keep cleaning up after your edits, especially with the huge volume of newcomers we will be getting starting today.

In addition, please do not change the images in the story infoboxes. They were chosen by one or more admins, who completely understand our image policies, to fit the story. And please take a look at Tardis:Game of Rassilon rules. Thanks. Shambala108 14:21, September 19, 2015 (UTC)

Videos

Hey. I've deleted the video you uploaded because it violates our video policies. I will copy over the main sentence here: "Only videos uploaded by the copyright holder or official licensee may be used on any article pages, talk pages or forum pages." So if it's not from the official Doctor Who channel, BBC, BBC America or BBC Worldwide, it probably isn't allowed here.

We are very strict about videos here at Tardis, so this will be your only warning. If you'd like to suggest a video which we do not have, please go to Tardis:Video recommendations and post a link there. An admin will add the video for you if it does meet our requirements.

Please read all of Tardis:Video policy, as well as all the policies that Shambala has linked to above, before continuing to edit here. If you have any questions, please come to me or another admin. If you're unsure if something's okay, don't do it: just ask.

Re: Images

Hi! I had to delete most of your images because they violate some policy or other, which I indicated in the deletion summary. Please read through all the image policies at thread:148148 before uploading any more images, as we have very strict image policies on this wiki. Thanks Shambala108 14:38, September 20, 2015 (UTC)

Valid sources

Hi! Please note that the transcript site is NOT a valid source on this wiki. You must make yourself familiar with Tardis:Valid sources and Tardis:In-universe perspective before you create any more pages or add any more information to articles. Shambala108 02:11, September 23, 2015 (UTC)

User pages

Hi! Please note that it is against Tardis:Vandalism policy to edit other users' user pages. Shambala108 23:43, September 24, 2015 (UTC)

Once again

Please read Tardis:Spelling and Tardis:Honourifics. We use British spelling and grammar on this wiki, and editors are expected to do their best to follow these policies. Also, I had to add a cleanup tag to several of your new articles because you put "humanoid" in the infobox but "human" in the category. It's one or the other, so please change the articles to fix this. Thanks. Shambala108 02:04, September 26, 2015 (UTC)

Real world/infobox

I'm getting tired of having to repeat myself. You must read through and understand T:NO RW. I deleted the pages you created for Robert DeNiro and Taxi Driver because there is no mention of them in the story you cited. We don't make assumptions that the real world is the same as the DWU.

Also, you will have to change the infobox on your user page. "Infobox individuals" is for story characters. The only infobox available for users is "Infobox user". Thanks. Shambala108 14:11, September 26, 2015 (UTC)

Plagiarism

Hi! Please don't add material from other websites to this wiki. As stated in Tardis:Plagiarism, we only want original material on this wiki. Thanks. Shambala108 20:46, September 26, 2015 (UTC)

"Liked"

Hi! There are probably dozens and dozens of characters in the DWU who like chocolate and red wine. Please try to make your entries about Clara on those pages a little more interesting than just "Clara liked..." Thanks. Shambala108 00:17, September 30, 2015 (UTC)

Real world info revisited

Please read through both T:NO RW and Template:FTRW. You absolutely must not put information on in-universe pages from the real world that is not stated or seen in DWU stories. Your continued breaking of this policy may result in your edits being completely reverted and/or deleted. Shambala108 01:36, October 1, 2015 (UTC)

Question

What is the purpose of this page you created: User blog:CzechOut/Opera 10 and 11 having problems with the new editor? Shambala108 02:55, October 2, 2015 (UTC)

Stubs

Hi! Please stop putting {{Stub}} on pages. We have dozens of more specific stub tags that should be used instead. {{Stub}} should only be used when there is no more specific tag available. Shambala108 20:54, October 3, 2015 (UTC)

Big Finish Release Dates

Big Finish releases are never released on the stated date; research news items for release on the website and use the date of those. Notsimonpegg 19:32, October 4, 2015 (UTC)
