User talk:Finister2
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:
Remember that you should always sign your comments on talk and vote pages using four tildes like this:Thanks for becoming a member of the TARDIS crew! If you have any questions, see the Help pages, add a question to one of the Forums or ask an admin.
Categories
Hi, categories added to in-universe articles need to be in-universe themselves. --Tangerineduel 13:02, May 1, 2010 (UTC)
Recurring enemies
The concept of "recurrence" has no real meaning because it assumes there is a point of view to be seen from all this. We present impartial information. Enemies can be enemies of someone (for instance the First Doctor enemies), but recurring villains has no meaning, who are these enemies recurring to for example? As I've stated previously categories need to be of an in-universe perspective. The recurring villains category is not in-universe. --Tangerineduel 12:40, May 15, 2010 (UTC)
Time of Angel Crack
That is not the right type of crack! its just a small little crack in an old screen. Its not even the same shape!!!!!!! Liamhenney 17:59, May 16, 2010 (UTC)
Categories
Somethings aren't categories, some things need to be on pages, or in lists, some things need context. Also an episode and a story are two different things. --Tangerineduel 15:28, May 23, 2010 (UTC)
- As I've said, some things are part of the same structure, some things don't need to be in categories.
- However, rather than creating the categories again I would encourage discussion of this in the forums. --Tangerineduel 17:06, May 28, 2010 (UTC)
