User talk:Dr. Anonymous1
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:
- the listing of all our help, policy and guideline pages
- our Manual of Style
- our image use policy
- our user page policy
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.
Welcome back
By a vote of 5-0, your editing rights have been provisionally returned to you. The provisions are these:
- You may not request reactivation of user:Patrick Watt, nor may you create other alternate accounts on the Wikia network without creating clear links in your profile page to your secondary accounts. You were banned because you attempted to "get around" a block on your primary account. This must never happen again. We have no choice but to support — even if we do not recommend — the Wikia wide ability to create multiple accounts, but we insist that you make it incredibly clear what your alts are.
- You cannot violate any of our major policies. A single violation will result in the reinstatement of your permanent ban, with little chance of reversal. These policies include:
- Don't vandalise (your) user pages or any other pages
- use only valid sources when writing articles
- Follow our image rules and guidelines
- Don't personally attack other users
- Don't spoil stories that haven't yet been released
- Chat responsibly and don't be rude in discussions
- Don't abuse the Related Videos Module or otherwise upload videos that don't comply with our video policy.
- Don't plagiarise.
- Understand what this wiki is not
- Your attention is drawn to our spelling polciy. Intentional conversion of British spelling to American spelling, or any indication on your part that you are not trying to use British spellings, could lead your blocking.
- You cannot remove or alter any links from user:Dr. Anonymous1 to user:Patrick Watt or vice versa.
- You may not delete this post or any others which indicate why this account was previously blocked. You may, however, archive such notes according to our archiving policy. In fact, it may a good idea for you to perform an immediate archive so as to start fresh.
- You may not archive, delete or in any way change user talk:Patrick Watt or user:Patrick Watt, which have now been protected.
I make special note of the fact that your behaviour has been exemplary during this review process, and you serve as a model of the correct way to behave during a ban reversal process.
Your first edit upon your return must be directly underneath this message, where you acknowledge that you will comply with the terms that have been set out above.
