User:CzechOut/Doctor Who Wiki

November 23 2013 18:30:00 until Doctor Who turns 50! A wiki covering Doctor Who, Torchwood, The Sarah Jane Adventures, and K9 that anyone can edit! This wiki contains spoilers. Read at your own risk. We were founded on 11 November 2004 and are currently working on 113,821 articles. If you need help with anything, please feel free to contact an administrator Listen to the Doctor and friends! The Lost Stories are based on television scripts considered but for various reasons not produced. All the Doctors from the First to the Seventh have made an appearance. Latest books Shroud of Sorrow BBC New Series Adv. Shroud of Sorrow (novel) The Silurian Gift Quick Reads The Silurian Gift Empire of the Wolf Decide your Destiny The Wheel of Ice BBC Past Doctor Adv.

Where Nobody Knows Your Name — intentionally titled after the Cheers theme song — was an Eighth Doctor comic story set in a bar. More character study than adventure, it stressed the complexities of friendships between long-lived shape-shifters like the Doctor and his former companion, Frobisher. Popular categories If you're new to wikis, it might be helpful for you to take note of the concept of categories. Categories are the principal organizing tool on a wiki, allowing users to group information in ways that can ease the discovery of information. All the pages on our wiki are found, ultimately, in just four big "super categories". If this is your first visit here, please go to Floor 500 for a discussion of the way our wiki is organized. ✍ Real world On our wiki, the world we actually live in is called the "real world" . As such, information about the production of Doctor Who and her sister shows are in this category. This includes pages about the actual televised episodes themselves, the behind-the-scenes personnel, terminology used by the production teams, and merchandise related to the shows. Time-Space Visualiser The Time-Space Visualiser is the place where most of this wiki's pages reside. All the articles are written from an in-universe perspective, quite different to what you might be used to on Wikipedia. Here you'll find information related to The Doctor, his companions, Other individuals, astronomical objects, time travel, species, locations, science, culture, and a whole host of other subjects. Non-DWU material Notwithstanding writer Paul Cornell's famous comments that denounced the concept of "canon" in Doctor Who, our canon policy does deem a few things to be outside the Doctor Who universe. For examples, visit: stories, characters, technology, species, and locations. The Hub This category contains articles having to do with the actual running of the wiki. It's full of all those little pages that help the wiki work. As such, it isn't accessed often by most users. However, more advanced editors might wish to peruse the templates category for ways to make their editing easier. Or if you're looking for a place to start editing on the wiki, you might want to look at articles that need updating, major expansion, general copy-editing, sectional cleanup, and re-writing from an in-universe perspective.

Quote of the minute

Fifth Doctor: It's quite simple. On the off behind the wicket and close to it are the slips. Behind them, third man.

Turlough: (sarcastically) Easy.

Fifth Doctor: It's a position. Like mid-off.

Turlough: Silly.

Fifth Doctor: No, no, no. Silly mid-off's different altogether.

Turlough: I meant it's silly. The whole game. I can't think why you're so keen on it, Doctor.

Fifth Doctor: Well you know, every man should have a hobby. It helps to while away eternity.

AUDIO: Phantasmagoria
