Please take a moment to review the edit history of Line of Battle, observing the changes that Shambala108 and I made to your work. It'll help you write stronger articles here. Thanks :)

New pages
Hi! Don't forget to add at least one category to every new page you create. It's ok to occasionally leave one blank if you can't find a category that fits, but it's not ok to make a bunch of pages without categories and leave someone else to add the categories. Thanks!

Christmas cheer
As this fiftieth anniversary year comes to a close, we here at Tardis just want to thank you for being a part of our community — even if you haven't edited here in a while. If you have edited with us this year, then thanks for all your hard work.
This year has seen an impressive amount of growth. We've added about 11,000 pages this year, which is frankly incredible for a wiki this big. November was predictably one of the busiest months we've ever had: over 500 unique editors pitched in. It was the highest number of editors in wiki history for a year in which only one programme in the DWU was active. And our viewing stats have been through the roof. We've averaged well over 2 million page views each week for the last two months, with some weeks seeing over 4 million views!
We've received an unprecedented level of support from Wikia Staff, resulting in all sorts of new goodies and productive new relationships. And we've recently decided to lift almost every block we've ever made so as to allow most everyone a second chance to be part of our community.
2014 promises to build on this year's foundations, especially since we've got a full, unbroken series coming up — something that hasn't happened since 2011. We hope you'll stick with us — or return to the Tardis — so that you can be a part of the fun!
Two things
Hi! Please don't capitalize the word "the" in front of names like "the Doctor" unless it's the beginning of a sentence (Tardis:Capital letters). Also, if you're talking about the Doctor's TARDIS, you use [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] ; if you are talking about TARDISes in general, you use [[TARDIS]] . Thanks.

Images
Hi! The images you've uploaded today, while they have the proper license and are in the correct .jpg format, are the wrong dimensions. They need to be more widescreen, not square or portrait-oriented. Please read through all of our video policies, which you can find at Thread:148148. I'd really rather not have to delete your images, so if you could upload the same images cropped to the proper dimension, we won't have to undo all your work. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎ 21:22, October 11, 2014 (UTC)
- Everyone who edits on the wiki is responsible for reading our policies. I don't have time to describe the policies to each editor when we have well-thought-out and written policy pages that can explain so much better.
- Also, on an unrelated note, your signature needs to link to both your user page and your user talk page. To sign your name on a talk page, all you need to do is type ~~~~. Typing [[user:your user name]] doesn't include a link to your talk page. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎ 13:15, October 12, 2014 (UTC)
HTML
Hi! Please note that per T:NO HTML, we don't use HTML in articles. You can read the policy page for the reason why. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎ 14:42, October 17, 2014 (UTC)
Page moves
Hi! Please note that per Thread:128198 only admins are permitted to move pages on this wiki. Please read the thread in question for the reasons and for the proper procedure when you think a page move is needed. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎ 01:53, June 5, 2016 (UTC)
Images
Hi! Thanks for you recent image uploads. Just a couple of pointers to make them as good as possible:
- The minimum width for images is 250px.
- They should be landscape orientation (wider than they are tall). Pictures of people should be focused on the face.
- Images should clearly illustrate their subjects at thumbnail size. Well-lit is better than dark.
- You only have to put categories on for recurring characters.
I highly recommend giving our guide to images a read. It explains these guidelines and the reasoning behind them really well. P&P talk contribs 23:43, June 16, 2016 (UTC)
T:OFF REL
I'm going to post the same thing I'm putting at user talk:CybermanFan. Your enthusiasm is appreciated. However, we take T:SPOIL very seriously here, and T:OFF REL, a subsection of that policy is very clear on when a new story is officially released, and ceased to be a spoiler.
I'm sorry that I had to prevent your editing until around that time. T:SPOIL allows for a much longer block, but I think it'd be far more helpful to simply explain, instead, so you know for next time. In case T:OFF REL, is something you haven't read, or haven't quite understood, allow me to highlight the most important sentence for this:
- "By clearly ended, we mean that you should wait, out of an abundance of caution, until the top or bottom of the hour after the end credits roll on the global premiere broadcaster's initial showing of the episode, on their primary broadcasting channel."
In this case, since the episode ended at 8:10 on BBC One, the page for the story may not be created until 8:30, and it's only at that point that you can edit at all based on that story anywhere outside of the series 10 page and The Howling. If the show had ended at 7:50, editing could start at 8. Top or bottom of the hour, for absolute clarity, means the first time a clock would hit :00 or :30 after the time at which the show stops airing.
Thank you for taking this policy seriously, as we do, and for keeping T:OFF REL in mind for next week and beyond. If this is a problem again, consider this a first warning. Your temporary ban will be lifted as soon as I make the page for the ep.

RE:Title Cards
Hey, sorry for taking a long time to answer. I read your message, but ended up forgeting to answer. It's actually a simple answer as well: I just crop the logo out before uploading. OncomingStorm12th ☎ 02:22, May 12, 2017 (UTC)
