If you need to leave a message here on my talk page, please follow a couple of guidelines:

  • Please don't forget to sign your posts. Like most admins, I won't answer any post that doesn't have a signature.
  • Also, if you are starting a new topic, please add a new heading.

Also also please don't use my talk page to argue with other users.


WaltK's ban

Hello! Just notifying you that User:WaltK posted a message on your Community Central talk page appealing a ban you gave him, in case you didn't get a notification. His case seems reasonable at first glance, though I haven't looked into it personally. Scrooge MacDuck 21:02, 18 June 2021 (UTC)

Well, you never replied, so he contacted me as per Help:I'm blocked. I've taken it upon myself to unblock him. Although his message did contain profanity it wasn't a personal attack directed at any individual, so I think the time he's already been blocked is plenty sufficient for procedure — and he does do very useful work in the main namespace on the Doctor Whoah! pages and whatnot, whatever he'd done in the Discussions area.

Sock puppetry and likely vandalism

Hi, there are two users that may be sock puppets who are creating/adding fan fiction, Sarahkitt85 and 82.25.60.41 Valeyard12.5 21:53, 18 June 2021 (UTC)

Tally

Hi there, I just found myself having some difficulty counting up the marks in the Tally on your user page. So in case you want to replicate regular tally marks where every group of 5 is signified by four lines struck through, I thought I'd let you know that this Chinese symbol exists: 卌. (Of course, you could just use ||||, but where's the fun in that?) Hope you've been well! – n8 () 14:06, 29 June 2021 (UTC)

Rename Tag

Hey, I noticed you've asked for a rename tag for the page: https://tardis.fandom.com/wiki/Segun_Akinola_Lietmotivs

I'd like to change it to "Segun Akinola's Leitmotifs" but I have no idea how to make a rename tag. When I try and find other tags I don't see rename and then I'm not sure how to add it to the article in question.

Do you have a guide for this?

Thank you :)


Re: OS12th

Oh, yes, thank you for spotting that! One of the listings should be User:Amorkuz, of course. Scrooge MacDuck 05:14, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

FandomDesktop migration

Hey there! We are due to migrate this wiki very soon to FandomDesktop and I need to help get a light theme ready. Apologies for the short notice of this, there were some unforeseen circumstances.

It would be great to work with the entire admin team to get the wiki ready for FandomDesktop. Have you been using the new skin? I'm going to start some preparation tomorrow and it would be great to work with the admin team on this. We may need to:

  • Adjust the theme on light theme
  • Adjust templates
  • Adjust CSS/JS
  • and more potentially.

If you have any suggestions for how we can collaborate, please let me know. I wondered if a forum thread on Forum:Index might work? Please let me know if you have any questions, and I look forward to hearing from you! --Spongebob456 talk <staff/> 18:47, 16 July 2021 (UTC)

Timeline template

I'm a new user on this fandom, though I am currently the owner of Eminem Wiki, so I'm not a complete stranger to editing templates. I noticed your timeline template has things a bit out of order and doesn't include certain years. I was wondering if you could give me an opportunity to take a look at it and see if I could make it properly display the years on the Timeline template. However, I will not complete any edits without running it by you.

Timeline update #2

So, I believe that I've come up with a solution to the issue with the timeline template, though, I did create a new page called Template:Order of Centuries, which is useless and should be deleted. I'm not entirely sure of my revision for the Timeline template issue, so I'm going to give it a shot under Template:TimelineRevision. If it works (and I'm going to test it out briefly on the Timeline page), I'll let you know.

Community Connect

Hey there! Can I confirm you received an email re Community Connect please? May be in spam and it's to the email associated with your Fandom account. Is this something you would be interested in attending? Thanks! --Spongebob456 talk <staff/> 10:28, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

You are most welcome :) LauraBatham 05:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)

Little Shop page

Hi there! I created a page named Little Shop and you removed it because you don’t make pages about running gags. May I ask why? It may be a stupid question but I’m just curious. Caroline 00:45, 13 August 2021 (UTC)

The Master page

Hi. I think The Master page may need a bit of admin work to fix the vandalism from our recently blocked "friend". The page has the correct title at the top of the page, but the infobox, talk page, and history pages still have the vandalised title. And there is still a redirect as well. LauraBatham 04:30, 18 August 2021 (UTC)

Dalek Page Vandalism

It's come to my eyes that upon loading the wiki, someone has vandalised the Dalek page and called it JEWS MUST BE EXTERMINATED! It seems upon viewing that someone saw this and made a first time edit to remove an antisemetic comment at the top of the page and they have left a note about it requesting that a mod or admin clear everything up. However, the page name remains the questionable statement.

Videos

Could you please upload this official trailer for Battle of Time (video game)? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pe05WrO7W98 EpsilonGamma 11:04, 24 August 2021 (UTC)

Fandom projects

Hi! Got a couple of things:

As this wiki used to use Special:Forum, Fandom wants to make sure that old forum links and references aren't cluttering up maintenance special pages (unusedfiles, needed pages etc). Would you mind checking and letting me know asap as to whether that's an issue for this wiki? Just looking for dead links to forums in special pages, or links to images used in forums but are now dead, stuff like that. No need to attempt to cleanup yourself, I just need to know if they exist.

Secondly, did you receive an email sent last week I believe inviting you to The Downstream on September 10th? The email is titled "[The Downstream] Ask Fandom Anything, Social Media Tips, and Data Insights". I just want to confirm you received the email as we know Fandom outreach emails often land in spam.

If you could let me know about both of those things, that would be fantastic. Thanks! --Spongebob456 talk <staff/> 09:44, 27 August 2021 (UTC)

Hi there, just a reminder that The Downstream is Friday, September 10 at 11am EST at https://www.twitch.tv/Fandom. You can register/RSVP and add the event to your calendar here. That page also gives a lot of detail on what the event offers. Any questions, please let me know! --Spongebob456 talk <staff/> 12:11, 8 September 2021 (UTC)

Vandalism

Just wanting you to know, Someone has vandalized Dinosaurs on a spaceship right side bar pretty badly Andy Liu1978 20:29, 29 August 2021 (UTC)Andy Liu1978

Yeah the same vandal is back under a different account. He's vandalising the same page and signing it with the same comments Valeyard12.5 18:46, 30 August 2021 (UTC)

Still don't see a good reason,

Could you please give me a specific Link? Thank you. The preceding unsigned comment was added by Blartyboy (talk • contribs) .

Lavel Article Name change

The Lavel article has had a {{rename}} tag on it for over 4 years, and no one other than myself has made any kind of discussion on the article talk page regarding the name change. Given the sheer amount of time for users to discuss such a change, unless you or another admin has any objections, I move to change the article name, either by myself if I can get the go-ahead, or an admin with more familiarity with the process.

Apologies

Im sorry, I didnt know that fan-fiction wasnt allowed and I didnt thunk that my post catagoriezed as Fan-Fiction.

Galaxies of apologies - Justin_story56

Redirects

Yeah, I left the redirects intentionally since they're all being used by other users to link to my sandboxes, and I'm not comfortable editing their messages or breaking their links. – n8 () 16:50, 14 September 2021 (UTC)

Blanking

Hi there’s a vandal who has blanked the Master’s and Thirteenth Doctor’s page Valeyard12.5 05:49, 27 September 2021 (UTC)

The Sarah Jane Adventures

I just noticed a user is reverting edits you made to the page The Sarah Jane Adventures, which as you're an admin, I seemed was quite odd that they would revert specifically the stuff you edited. EDIT: I forgot to sign this. ThomasRWade 11:07, 29 September 2021 (UTC)

Vandal on the Dalek and Davros pages

Hi. There is a vandal that keeps editing the Davros and Dalek pages. I have undone their edits a few times, but it's starting to get into edit warring territory, so could you please have a word with them or block them. Thanks. LauraBatham 23:42, 2 October 2021 (UTC)

Checking in

Hi there! Sorry it has been a little while since I last checked in, I have been out of action for the last two weeks unfortunately. How are things going? One thing I did notice was that the navigation in dark theme, the Explore tab in white is hard to read. Have you guys noticed that? Figured if we do what we did before and if we continue a single thread on my talk page, it might be easier for us to keep track. Hope that's ok! :) --Spongebob456 talk <staff/> 09:02, 4 October 2021 (UTC)

Forum Confusion

Sorry if this is a ridiculous question, but I wasn't sure where I should ask. I wanted to make a forum post - specifically in the Panopticon, regarding something I'm really campaigning for something to change on the wiki.

I've been out of the loop for a while and the Fandom updates sure do confuse me, but I digress.

When I try to make a forum post here I get hit with a "You do not have permission to edit pages in the Forum namespace." I know forums weren't a thing for a bit but I see they're here now and would like some clarification on this!

Thanking you!

StevieGLiverpool 00:29, 17 October 2021 (UTC)

@Shambala: I've informed User:StevieGLiverpool on his own talk page that the Forums still aren't functional — but I'm taking this opportunity to spread the word to you that User:CzechOut has told me in off-Wiki chats that he hopes to have Board:The Panopticon functional before November.

Checking in

Hi again! Just checking in to see how things are going. How're things on the wiki? All set for the premiere? :) --Spongebob456 talk <staff/> 10:52, 30 October 2021 (UTC)
