Welcome to the

• TheMasterRace •

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:

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.

the Doctor not The Doctor

Please could you leave the "the" of the Doctor in lower case please, the only time it should be capitalised is at the start of a sentence, thanks. Revanvolatrelundar 19:02, January 26, 2011 (UTC)

Deletion of File:Thumbnail.jpg

Hiya :) I wanted to take a moment to explain why I had to delete the above-named file, which you had attempted to place on The Aztecs. Except for very special cases, pictures must be a minimum of 292 px (that is to say, the standard width of a sidebar advertisement), so that they can be used in all situations on the wiki. Your picture was far too small for that purpose — so small that the people were indistinct. Also, pictures shouldn't be named after elements within CSS (that is to say, the wiki's underlying programming language). A thumbnail is a specific thing, and thumbnail.jpg should only be used on a file which is illustrating what a thumbnail is.

I think what you were trying to do was to create a thumbnail. That's done by taking a picture that's bigger than 292px and using this markup:

[[file:PicName.jpg|thumb|This is the caption]]

Please feel free to resubmit that image at a different, larger size and under a different file name, preferably one that describes the content of the image.
