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. Shambala108 ☎ 00:32, September 2, 2015 (UTC)
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)
Technically, yes. However DWM is always written a month or so in advance. The wide release of the title is the end of the month but it is not the initial release. Therefore what it says on the Big Finish site will always be more reliable. If we want accuracy, the end of the month date is never the one to go for. Notsimonpegg ☎ 20:50, October 4, 2015 (UTC)
Block
By my count, I have instructed you to read T:NO RW and abide by its policies three separate times. Since you have ignored these instructions, and continue to violate the policy, you are blocked for a week to give you time to read through all the policies I've cited on your talk page. Shambala108 ☎ 23:23, October 4, 2015 (UTC)
Images
Hi! I had to delete a bunch of your images because you've ignored our rules on image size. I've given you a bunch of policies to read; it's up to you to read them. Keep in mind that you are bound by current policy, whether you read them or not; continued ignoring of policy will result in the deletion of your work and possibly another block. Shambala108 ☎ 17:08, October 12, 2015 (UTC)
New pages
Hi! Please add a category to the pages you created today. Stub tags are not a substitute for a proper category. Shambala108 ☎ 02:37, October 15, 2015 (UTC)
Re: Martha Jones page
The Martha Jones page is locked because one of the admins is working on the infobox and doesn't want it to be changed while he's working on it. Shambala108 ☎ 04:12, October 17, 2015 (UTC)
- One question; does the site incorporate section-protection? In other words, can just the infobox be protected from editing? Sniping is AwesomeSpeak to the Sniper 12:47, October 17, 2015 (UTC)
LEGO Dimensions
Please do not create any pages for LEGO Dimensions. Per Thread:176459 the only page allowed is the game's own page, as this discussion is still ongoing and parts of the game unreleased. Thanks. --DCLM ☎ 17:54, October 17, 2015 (UTC)
- Thank you, Danniesen. As they said, the discussion is still ongoing, and until we reach a definite conclusion, so further pages on the topic should be created. Come by the discussion if you have what to add. Thanks for your patience. :)

Stubs revisited
Like I said above, stop adding {{Stub}} to pages when there is a more specific stub tag available. Shambala108 ☎ 00:09, October 18, 2015 (UTC)
- For the record, any category can be found by going to Special:Categories. For stubs specifically, they are located at Category:Stubs. Shambala108 ☎ 00:48, October 18, 2015 (UTC)
Headings
Tardis:Use sentence case — please read it and use it. Shambala108 ☎ 01:05, October 20, 2015 (UTC)
PAST tense
Please read Tardis:In-universe perspective. All in-universe articles are written in the past tense. Shambala108 ☎ 23:49, October 20, 2015 (UTC)
Block
Blocking you for a week so you can read all the image policies located at Thread:148148. If you're not going to read and abide by these policies, maybe you should stop uploading images to the wiki. Shambala108 ☎ 13:56, October 21, 2015 (UTC)
London list of appearances
Hey, I just wanted to let you know the reason for the deletion of the page "London - list of appearances". I will quote from User:CzechOut's reason for deleting a similar page: "When making an appearances page, it's very important to ask the question, "Am I going to be able to give a reasonably full list of most every usage in every DWU story?" If the answer is no, don't make the list." Please see User talk:SOTO/Archive 1#Page deletion to get the context of his entire message. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎ 02:15, October 29, 2015 (UTC)
Recent edits
This is the last time I will tell you to read and follow Tardis:Use sentence case. If you can't follow simple rules like this one, your edits may be removed.
Also, please make note of the corrections I made to the following pages: DJ (The Runaway Bride), Mark Haste, Dock worker (The Next Doctor) and Matthew Alick. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎ 13:07, October 30, 2015 (UTC)
Dent Road
Hi! Where did the name Dent Road come from? Shambala108 ☎ 16:59, October 31, 2015 (UTC)
- Ok, I saw the behind the scenes section you added (and incidentally, once again, you've violated Tardis:Use sentence case), and I need to know: does the road sign appear in the episode at all, or is all the information taken from the reference book? Shambala108 ☎ 18:56, October 31, 2015 (UTC)
- And another question: where does Diamond Plains come from? The episode or a reference book? Shambala108 ☎ 18:57, October 31, 2015 (UTC)
Dent Road is fine if you can see its name in the episode, but not Diamond Plains. It's been deleted. We don't allow reference books as a source for in-universe pages. See Tardis:In-universe perspective and Tardis:Valid sources. Shambala108 ☎ 19:02, October 31, 2015 (UTC)
Re LEGO Dimensions
Please note that the discussion at Thread:176459 has not been resolved in any way, and the edits you've been making to other pages regarding the game must be removed. Please remove these edits as soon as possible. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎ 15:27, November 4, 2015 (UTC)
Policy violation
Hi! Your edit at Malta was a violation of T:NO RW (which I have repeatedly warned you about). I strongly suggest you read the discussion between User:CzechOut and another user who repeatedly violated this policy. CzechOut gives a lengthy discussion on what we do and don't allow regarding real world information. His comments are located at User talk:OverAnalyser#Seriously, no real world information, and the user's comments/questions for CzechOut are located at User talk:CzechOut/Archive 13#resent prior message that I just realised that I had forgotten to sign. As you can see, we take this policy very seriously. This is the last warning I will give you regarding this policy. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎ 02:03, November 6, 2015 (UTC)
Spoilers
Hi! Please make sure you don't leave spoilers in your edit summaries, as you did for your edit at Series 9 (Doctor Who) (see Tardis:Spoiler policy). Thanks! Shambala108 ☎ 23:40, November 9, 2015 (UTC)
