Jo never having fired a gun[[edit source]]
- Hi, name's Noob, casual contributor around here.
- Two things, #1: Jo says she's never killed anyone or ever fired a gun before. Now I don't know any concrete exemples myself but with the ammount of 3rd Doctor material out there, I highly doubt this claim is completely true within the context of the Whoniverse. Since I don't know any exemples myself, I defer to fellow nerds who actually do know of instances where Jo killed someone/fired a gun.
- And #2: Is there a Discord or something where I can actually interact with some of the more serious contributors to the wiki instead of leaving notes like these? I'm starting to feel rather silly leaving contributions that ammount to "here's something that might be worth looking into".

- As concerns the former, I have no specific examples in my mind, but regardless, what would be the implications even if other stories did contradict the statement?
- As concerns the latter — well, if you want to be seen as a "serious contributor", a good starting point might be to create an account rather than editing as an IP user. That way, you'd have a user talk page with which to interact with other users on broader topics than can be held on story talk pages. There is no official Discord server for the Wiki, although some editors (such as myself) do have Discord accounts and are open to DMing about Wiki matters. Note, however, that no policy decisions can be taken off-Wiki. Scrooge MacDuck ☎ 23:07, 29 June 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for the info.
- About the first point, I feel like it'd warrant a note or something. Be it a mention of the instance in the continuity section or a mention of the discrepancy in the "Notes" section. I've seen several similar instances of it, some of which even suggest reasonings for it. (Stuff along the lines of "There's a possibility that the Doctor wasn't being truthful in Instance X".) Then again, I'm just a noob.

- About the second point, I wasn't really asking how to become a serious contributor. I was basically saying: "I'm just a small-time nerd, can you point me to where the big top-level nerds tend to hang out in case I ever need to ask other specific and/or dumb questions?" Your answer seems to have covered that point regardless, so thanks anyway.
