Welcome to the Tardis:About LilPotato

Thanks for your edits! We hope you'll keep on editing with us. This is a great time to have joined us, because now you can play the Game of Rassilon with us and win cool stuff! Well, okay, badges. That have no monetary value. And that largely only you can see. But still: they're cool!

We've got a couple of important quirks for a Wikia 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're American, 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:

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:

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 on my talk page. Doug86 02:12, January 29, 2016 (UTC)

Re: Quick question

Well, the first acknowledge is that the Short Trips page is basically the exception to the "rule". Most pages display the layout that The Lucy Wilson Mysteries displayed. That said, that's probably because it became more a "format" of stories than one cohesive series (which becomes more evident because it was published by several companies and in different medium and format through the years).

To further difficult the series being put on a "traditional" format is Subscriber Short Trips and Short Trips Rarities, which serve as "sub-series" of Big Finish's Short Trips. All that said, Bernice Summerfield (series) and specially Iris Wildthyme (series) are great examples of pages which cover such shifts in the more commonly used format of tables, with a separate cover gallery.

But all that said, an effort to bring that page more in line could certainly be made. OncomingStorm12th 22:48, February 25, 2019 (UTC)

Block

You've been blocked for a month for violating Tardis:No personal attacks at Thread:255536. These inclusion debates are heated enough. We don't need users accusing others of acting out of "spite", which is a direct personal attack. Shambala108 17:00, September 5, 2019 (UTC)

Psychosphere

Hey, the Titan Comics' Psychosphere is something I didn't notice when first creating the page, but just as you messaged me I caught up on it. I just dabbed the Cwej one, and will look for a dab term for the Titan one. OncomingStorm12th (talk) 00:12, May 20, 2020 (UTC)

Audio Adventures table

Hey there, I've cobbled together a proposal for the Audio Adventures in Time & Space table(s), incorporating your own proposal. Please check it out at my sandbox and let me know what you think at Talk:Audio Adventures in Time & Space! Hope you're well :) – n8 () 17:31, 20 September 2021 (UTC)

Lucifer's Sleep

Do you have evidence that Lucifer's Sleep was unlicensed? I am aware of the previous reports that BBV were stripped of the Faction Paradox license, but perhaps these issues were resolved? I would be incredibly surprised if BBV were illegally using concepts that they did not have the rights to. DrWHOCorrieFan 08:11, 26 May 2022 (UTC)

Re:Hello!

Ah, thanks!

I read that Frey appeared in a new illustration released with the republished version and the two on the back perfectly fit the descriptions of Frey and Tina (the latter I assumed was from her original incarnation as a male Cwej, rather than the female South Asian second incarnation, who was designed to look more effeminate to differentiate the character from Chris himself). I shouldn't have just assumed. I'll add the deletion tags and update Frey's image once I've found the correct one (I haven't been able to locate it on Facebook but have the updated version on my Kindle, is Frey supposed to be the squid-creature?).
