Infoboxes and novelisations
Hi, since you were the one that closed the novelisation thread I thought I'd ask you. Now that novelisations and TV stories have been given equal weight would, for example PROSE: Doctor Who and the Mutants need to appear in the infobox of Ky or would it just be understood that unless mentioned a character appeared in the novelisation as well? Thanks. --Borisashton ☎ 21:25, April 16, 2018 (UTC)
Pearl Mackie meta description
The TARDIS Data Core page about Pearl Mackie was vandalised for about five minutes back in February and, somehow, the vandalised version of the page is now stuck in the page's meta description. For reference, google "pearl mackie" yourself, look at the page's source code, or see these screencaps of when I did both of those things myself. If this is something I could edit myself, I don't see where. In the meantime, this is a bad look for a wiki as big as this one. --AeD ☎ 19:08, May 8, 2018 (UTC)
- If I'm asking the wrong person, I'd appreciate at least being pointed in the direction of the right person. --AeD ☎ 23:18, May 10, 2018 (UTC)
Category page numbers
Hi again. I noticed that recently categories with multiple pages now have the option to go to the "previous 200" or "next 200" instead of links to the different pages e.g. 1, 2, 3. As I am currently working on the project of image categorisation it is incredibly annoying to click on an image and then go back to page 1 especially with mega categories like Screenshots. Am I doing something wrong and is there a way to reverse it? Thanks. --Borisashton ☎ 17:26, May 18, 2018 (UTC)
Infobox Story
Hi. I recently filled the "reprint" variable in the infobox of The Lost Dimension and noticed that the variable doesn't automatically remove the dab term, nor does it italicises the title of the graphic novel. Is this how it's meant to be, or is it a part of the code that needs upgrading? OncomingStorm12th ☎ 21:22, May 31, 2018 (UTC)
- Oooh, my mistake ;) thanks for the info on the traded/reprinted stuff. I've now moved the graphic novels of The Lost Dimension to the appropriate variable. As for Titan reprinting IDW stuff, it did happen: a few Tenth and Eleventh Doctor comics, under the The Tenth Doctor Archives and The Eleventh Doctor Archives banners.

Article Headlines
Hi, I'm sorry about the headline issue. Being autistic, I happen to have an automatic need for overarching consistency across these forms of platforms. I'll stop and or correct my errors if this is what you wish, but I've half a mind to give up on what I'm doing on this wiki as it seems I can cause nothing but errors and I'm getting incredibly sick of doing things wrong while I'm trying to make improvements. This is not a slight on the wiki's admin in any way; you guys are just doing your job. I'm just an insecure contributer with good intentions but ideas clearly above his station. BelcherMorganJames ☎ 15:37, June 26, 2018 (UTC)
That you for being understanding about it. I'm just really passionate about this community and I love to do my best to contribute. And I'm going back over and correcting my mistakes now, changing them back to how I found them before. Thank you for your time. BelcherMorganJames ☎ 17:07, June 26, 2018 (UTC)
Series 11 info
Alright, but I thought spoilers shouldn't be added on the talk pages either... --DCLM ☎ 17:16, June 30, 2018 (UTC)
Spoiler-y files
Hi. Just to be sure about the recent changes in Tardis:Spoiler policy: it's now okay to add images and videos (of course, videos uploaded by admins) into series pages? So, for example, a cover added on Series 4 (BFTW) (which isn't finished yet would be okay?). Also, would it be okay to add a frame of the 2018 version of the Doctor Who logo to Series 11 (Doctor Who) (the one now used on merchandise)?
Just asking to be sure, before starting to upload such images. OncomingStorm12th ☎ 23:13, July 19, 2018 (UTC)
- Ooh, nice to know. I'll upload some relevant covers than. Thanks. OncomingStorm12th ☎ 02:40, July 20, 2018 (UTC)

RE: Vortex manipulator
- Ooh, I wasn't aware of the {{main}} thing. I'll make sure to only add it back once there's a page for them. :) OncomingStorm12th ☎ 01:30, July 22, 2018 (UTC)
Parentheses in titles
For some reason I had the false impression that the pipe trick didn't work for pages like The! Could you rename A Bloody And Public Domaine (short story) to A Bloody (And Public) Domaine (short story)? – N8 ☎ 00:58, July 23, 2018 (UTC)
- Is this a case of T:NAMING being outdated then? Also, is multiple colons and hyphens ok for titles as well? OncomingStorm12th ☎ 15:17, July 23, 2018 (UTC)
Thanks for the explanation! – N8 ☎ 15:32, July 23, 2018 (UTC)
- Ooh, I see. Thanks for the clarification. OncomingStorm12th ☎ 23:26, July 23, 2018 (UTC)
News
No not Series 11 news. I've added it to "The Howling" for you to decide what to do with it. :) --DCLM ☎ 14:02, July 23, 2018 (UTC)
FANDOM's Conditions of use infraction
Hello CzechOut,
I am from One Piece Encyclopédie (One Piece’s french Wiki). Some users and I share doubts regarding Mihawk Moha’s integrity, and significance he gives to his role as a Bureaucrat. For these reasons, we decided to investigate and check his activities. We noticed that you moderated this topic http://fr.onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Fil:412441#364, for the following motive: Author’s rights (peoples posted links of One Piece’s translation). Mihawk Moha actually admited it (http://fr.onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Fil:413724#191). Whereafter, the staff had removed the link, as the Bureaucrat told you; but only in the first message of every new topic.
Most of users didn't know about the rule, nobody told them afterwards (even if it is, indeed, pretty obvious). Moreover, Mihawk Moha and others kept publishing those kinds of links, every week. Here are some evidences:
There’s more if you need, but I guess it’d be useless (anyway, you can ask for more).
In other words, your instructions weren’t respected, this is why we inform you. We hope you can clarify this issue with OPE.
Thank you for your time!

Species article names
I know that there've probably been discussions about this and I'm guessing there's a good reason for it; this is just to satiate my curiosity. I was just wondering why articles pertaining to species like the Daleks and Cybermen are titled after a singular member of the race rather than the collective race, such as naming the Cybermen's page 'Cyberman' as opposed to 'Cybermen' or the Daleks' page 'Dalek' instead of 'Daleks'. I'm sure the admin have their reasons; it's just one of my little queries for clarity. Thank you. :-) BelcherMorganJames ☎ 22:33, September 1, 2018 (UTC)
Having trouble creating pages
I can't seem to create pages using the custom preload feature anymore. I was told to contact you since you're an expert on technical difficulties. I'm using Safari and macOS High Sierra.MystExplorer ☎ 18:34, September 4, 2018 (UTC)
- I am having the same problem but with the standard preloads i.e character. Been having the problem since saturday. using FireFox 61.0.2 MacOS High Sierra. Adric♥Nyssa∩Talk? 18:51, September 4, 2018 (UTC)
- I'll check again in a couple of days to let you finish what you were doing then Adric♥Nyssa∩Talk? 05:38, September 5, 2018 (UTC)
- what I meant was that choosing the standard preload wouldn't the load it in the editor. It's now working Adric♥Nyssa∩Talk? 21:04, September 5, 2018 (UTC)

Request
Hello, could you please add the comic/episode infoboxes from here, also on the doctor who fanon wiki, please? – The preceding unsigned comment was added by KimPossibleFan12345 (talk • contribs) .
RE: Leads of TV stories
Hey there! Yeah, it's all good. Saw what you said and, realising pretty every article I have read follows that structure, I figured I should go about fixing it. I'll be sure to check out the ideal introduction article you linked to so I can go back later on and, where needed, improve the articles in detail. As a faithful editor, I shall now continue my endeavor to get it done.
Thank you for pointing the issue out for me. Snivy ✦ The coolest Pokemon ever ✦ 13:04, October 8, 2018 (UTC)
Promoting DWA on TDC
Hey CzechOut!
I see the thread I created last week promoting DWA on the UNIT board got deleted. I know that in the past we've had permission to do so on the understanding that it's up to the discretion of the admins here (1 2). Is there any way we can promote DWA on TDC that we can get you guys' approval for? I've been trying to make DWA more user friendly (renewed de-blue-ed design, Read Next section, maintenance buttons) plus the new series airing now makes me want to try and bring more people in now and build a bigger community.
As a side note, I like the direction of your new design here! It's so much easier to see what's a link now. And nice decision on the gold highlights ;)
Thanks for all your help! • Imamadmad Contact me 07:03, October 12, 2018 (UTC)
Bradley Walsh
The link for Bradley Walsh on the main page is misspelled and links to Bradley Waslh. Just a heads up. --Borisashton ☎ 16:29, October 12, 2018 (UTC)
Derrick Sherwin
Hi CzechOut.
Have chosen you at random - you lucky person! - to mention that I've amended the entry for Derrick Sherwin to include his exact date of death (17th) as given by his daughter. I couldn't find anywhere to include that as a note, though, nor did I know how to add her FB post's URL as a reference, sorry. If it's of any help, it's https://www.facebook.com/keith.barnfather/posts/1939000112846616?comment_id=1939324499480844&reply_comment_id=1939867069426587&comment_tracking=%7B%22tn%22%3A%22R%2349%22%7D Thanks.

Patient page
Hey Czech!
I was trying to create the "patient" page to include references to the various patients in stories like The Empty Child, The Doctor Dances, New Earth, Smith and Jones (and several more) but I found you have locked the ability to create the page. Any chance you could enable me to make and subsequently expand the page rather than it forever remain a dead link?
Thanks! :D Snivy ✦ The coolest Pokemon ever ✦ 19:45, November 7, 2018 (UTC)
Re: Regenerating the Site
I know that the plan was to open up that announcement for discussion after the ghost monument aired. It's been several weeks since and there are issues with the site bordering on unusable.
Any chance of it being opened up so they can be addressed?
Thanks,
