Hey all :) If you need help with anything, please ask, below. The page tends to fill up quickly, so I've got a lot of archives. I try not to archive discussions that are ongoing, but sometimes it unfortunately happens. Gimme a second shout if I've not answered your question!


This page is also available in Bulgarian, German, Spanish, French, Dutch, Hebrew and Russian.

If you've come here to request a simple, uncontroversial page move, please consider using {{speedy rename}} instead. This puts all rename requests into a neat little chart that all admin can see and work on.

Page Creation

Hi. When I created the pages about stage play cast and crew, I was creating them from red links on the page Doctor Who and the Daleks in The Seven Keys to Doomsday so, I assumed that it wasn't nessessary for me to provide a source since they were already credited on the page. As for the category-less pages, I quickly added categories for most of them when I realised that they should be there, after I had made the pages.

I also wanted to mention that I have cut-down on my pipe-switching for story pages since I have now accepted, as you told me earlier, that it is a waste of my editing time and is against Tardis policy. But is Pipe-switching for articles of real people acceptable? Lego Whovian 20:37, September 13, 2013 (UTC)

Look on Chat now for my example of pipe-switching people page names. Lego Whovian 14:45, September 15, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Messages

OK, testing here first. That would certainly be an odd bug, but yet again, this is the first time I've seen the Spotlights not working completely on DWA (they've been blank before, but not totally missing). Just wondering, did you get my message from a few days ago regarding Spotlighting for the 50th? I left it on your talk page here, but it got archived soon after and you made no response.

Uh...

You can delete Doctor Who Prom (2013) again. Not sure how that was overlooked. I moved my relevant edits from my edit history onto Doctor Who at the Proms (2013) ages ago, and the televised version is in fact called at the Proms. -- Tybort (talk page) 20:26, September 18, 2013 (UTC)

Fix FixMe

Hey, could you update MediaWiki:FixMe.css, in light of Darwin? The edit button on user pages is no longer in a "better location", but completely off the screen. Thanks.

British Spelling

Hello there! I'm aware that you can use a template to request a rename for a page, but in this case it is a category. I'm not entirely certain a "category" is considered a "page", so I am asking you.

If I recall correctly, I am pretty sure that the British spelling of "license" is "licence." I think both of the titles of these categories need renaming: "Category:Doctor Who licensed food" and "Category:Publications related to Doctor Who licensed food."

Thanks! -  Speedysnitch   Talk  contribs  23:34, September 24, 2013 (UTC)

Tardis Red x mark.png Not done: Wow. I really need sleep. Switched it back to original, because of course the original was correct. In its adjectival form, -sed is correct on both sides of the Atlantic.

Bot page background

Hello, I hail from the ERB Wiki. I would like to know how you got that cool template for the background of your bot's page. {{Subst:User:JPhil2.0/Signature|02:34:42|September 25, 2013}} 02:34, September 25, 2013 (UTC)

Grandma Rani.jpg

One more thing for when you return. You deleted File:Grandma Rani.jpg on the grounds that it goes against T:GTI. Which is perfectly fine unless normal circumstances except...

You used that same image as an example of what not to do on T:GTI itself. We just lost our illustration. I'd consider restoring it, but of course not letting it on any pages.

Did you get my messages?

Hey CzechOut, jut following the instructions on your DWA talk page and pestering you here after no response there. Just letting you know I left a reply to all your messages on your talk page there. Could it be that bug again stopping you from seeing them?

Also, another message which seems to have slipped under the radar twice now. Do you want to do any sort of collaboration between TDC and DWA in regards to the 50th? Even if the answer is no, can you please just let me know so I can sort out things over there? And if the answer is yes, do you have any ideas of things we could do? If you still haven't gotten back to me on this point by next weekend (not this one coming but the one after that), I'll message one of the other TDC admins about it. However, I would prefer to talk through you about it since you know both wikis the best. Imamadmad (Contact me) 16:25, September 26, 2013 (UTC)

Are any of these pages necessary. The ones with...

Vandals

Vandals have struck the List of BBC DVD releases page, again. I've cleaned up the mess, but has the page become unprotected?Gallicus 06:31, October 2, 2013 (UTC)

Tardis Blue check mark.png Done: Returned to protected status. Be aware, though, that although the page is currently "indefinitely" protected, all protection will likely come off once the classic line wraps up next year.

Rotten Tomatoes pics

Yeah, sure. I'm on it.

Sorry for the late reply. I did a bit of a quick job of it (just in case I did it all wrong and I have to redo :P), so if I didn't do it properly, I'll gladly go back and fix things.
I finally discovered Special:MultipleUpload, which is a real gem. Here are the images:

File:RottenYellow.png
File:RottenOrange-Purple.png
File:FreshRed.png

File:FreshOrange.png
File:FreshPurple.png
The fresh ones got all pixelated once shrunk, obviously. Not much I could do about that. If I did something wrong or got the complete wrong idea (wouldn't be the first time), just get back to me.
