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. Skittles the hog ☎ 11:43, October 12, 2014 (UTC)
Real world info
Hi! I realize you probably spent hours of work on the English towns and counties, but I've had to undo most of your work. There are a couple of issues here:
- All in-universe articles on people, places, and things that also exist in the real world are tagged with {{Wikipediainfo}}, which leads anyone interested to the wikipedia page. Therefore, there is no need for us to include any non-DWU details in our articles. In particular, we never allow speculation in our articles, so phrases like "it may be" or "it is possible" are not allowed.
- In addition, T:NO RW tells us that we are only to use info from DWU stories in our in-universe articles. No matter what we know about a subject in real life, it is not added unless it can be sourced to a DWU story. (However, keep in mind that there may be examples of this on pages that haven't been caught and removed yet.)
A couple of things to keep in mind while you edit: make sure any headings you add conform to Tardis:Use sentence case, and be careful not to add content within the list of categories and templates, which must always be located at the bottom of an article beneath all the content. The edits you've been making today were inserted between the wikipedia template tag and the categories.
