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:
- the listing of all our help, policy and guideline pages
- our Manual of Style
- our image use policy
- our user page policy
- a list of people whose job it is to help you
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 on my talk page. Doug86 ☎ 11:05, August 7, 2014 (UTC)
Latin transliteration[[edit source]]
Dear #@$%!?# (that's how I see you name anyways). Given that you clearly need help from other editors who have to clean up after you, could I ask you to fulfil the requirements of T:NON-ENG USER: "Your signature should also have a Latin transliteration somewhere in it." Thank you in advance. Amorkuz ☎ 17:19, November 5, 2016 (UTC)
- Is this how you really see it? Weird. Anyway, I did as you asked --Glucharina ☎ 17:35, November 5, 2016 (UTC)
- Thank you, I really appreciate it. One more note, it is common in this Wiki to answer on your recipient's talk page, rather than on your own. It does make the conversation somewhat hard to keep track of, but the danger otherwise is that someone busier than me (e.g., an admin) might not see your response to them. At any rate, this is what people do around here. Happy editing. Amorkuz ☎ 17:55, November 5, 2016 (UTC)
Page moves[[edit source]]
Hi! First of all, thanks for changing the links to Killer petal. Now that's done, I've moved the page.
More importantly, thank you for actually wondering if you are allowed to move pages. The answer is no, as you can read at Thread:128198, and I can't tell you how many times I've had to clean up after a (usually brand new) editor moves pages without questioning. Thanks again!
