User talk:72.198.77.139
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!
Thing is, though, to play the game, you do need to be logged in.
Don't get us wrong: you don't need to have a registered account to make a lot of great edits around here. But you may find that there are good reasons to create an account. For a start, we could call you by a name instead of 72.198.77.139.
Even if you decide not to register, you should be aware that we've got a couple of important quirks for a Wikia wiki.
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 users 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:

- I seem to have some problems with some of these buttons at the moment, so I am using this method to explain to you why I have undone your revision. While it is true that other actors have played the character under conditions in which the character is given a different name -- "Melody Pond" or "The Little Girl", they are all the same character; one which we have chosen the page-name of "River Song" for, even though we note other appellations elsewhere, starting with the first line of the article in which we note that her name is -- quoting from memory -- "Melody 'Mels' Pond' later River Song." If you will look at the talk page, you will see a long and grouchy discussion of what we should call this character. You may wish to review it.
- You may notice that in the body of the article, I have attempted to write it so the character is referred to by what she was called in the episode -- and have titled one heading as "Becoming River Song".
- I think it likely that this will not entirely please you. It does not entirely please us. Nonetheless, we have reached a sort of concensus. I ask you to honor it until it changes drastically. Boblipton talk to me 22:59, April 1, 2012 (UTC)
