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. CzechOut ☎ 08:32, August 2, 2018 (UTC)

Links[[edit source]]
Hi, welcome to the wiki. We're glad you're interested in making it better. As you can see, our community is always ready to help. If you have questions, please do not hesitate asking any of Tardis:Administrators. Meanwhile, a tip for your current editing project. When you're adding links to an article, it is always worth previewing the page and checking whether the link points where you want it to. Our naming system has its quirks. For instance, most page titles are singular nouns (see Tardis:Naming conventions).
We also often have to separate a real-world thing, such as British Broadcasting Corporation from its Doctor Who universe analogue BBC. Note by the way, that the in-universe/out-of-universe separation is strict on this wiki (see Tardis:In-universe perspective vs. Tardis:Out-of-universe perspective).
One more thing: Tardis:Don't over-wikify explains when adding a link is considered redundant.
Anyway, happy editing and don't be afraid to make mistakes. Our wiki is blessed with dedicated editors who are ready to lend a helping hand. Amorkuz ☎ 13:11, August 2, 2018 (UTC)
