User talk:Charles RB
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.
Recent edits
Hi, thanks for your recent edits. Just a small note, references to stuff within the Doctor Who universe should be under the 'references' section header, whilst links to other stories go under continuity. (It's about separating the in-universe and out-of-universe). Thanks. (See also Tardis:Format for Novels, the referencing and continuity sections are applicable to any stories) --Tangerineduel 15:16, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
- and in articles about people/places/things in the Doctor Who universe (or Real World people/places/things from a Whoniverse POV), all out-of-universe information goes under Behind the Scenes at the end. only exceptions for articles with a Real World tag. --Stardizzy2 14:35, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
Past tense
Ive noticed that some of your edits are mostly in the past tense but there are still some "is"'s in there. Please could you make sure that all edits are written in past tense please. Revanvolatrelundar 14:07, November 4, 2010 (UTC)
