User talk:DiSoRiEnTeD1

From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Welcome to the Tardis:About DiSoRiEnTeD1

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:

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:

Spoilers

Hi please carefully read through Tardis:Spoiler policy. The novel pages (and accompanying images) that you created have been deleted for now in accordance with the policy. Thanks Shambala108 ☎ 14:17, May 12, 2020 (UTC)

Discussion policy

Hi please carefully read Tardis:No personal attacks and in the future be careful how you talk to others thanks Shambala108 ☎ 00:50, May 21, 2020 (UTC)

i think i know which comment you mean, but would you be able to specify so im absolutely sure? DiSoRiEnTeD1 ☎

Inuse tag

In addition to the fact that the picture you added to Doctors Assemble! was inappropriate, note that you're not supposed to edit any page with an Template:Inuse tag on it. The tag indicates that someone is currently performing a lengthy edit they haven't published yet and is meant to prevent editing conflicts. --Scrooge MacDuck ☎ 17:13, May 23, 2020 (UTC)

you should not be jumping onto a new release and preventing others from editing it. how is that fair? DiSoRiEnTeD1 ☎
It's not supposed to be fair or unfair: it's supposed to prevent several people starting to write a popular page like that at once, and half of them losing their work in the edit conflict. I've finished what I wanted to do now, if you want to make edits. --Scrooge MacDuck ☎ 17:41, May 23, 2020 (UTC)

Companion thread

I don't see how the message to User:CzechOut was in any way rude. I merely asked him if my interpretation of the situation was correct. It is his prerogative, as an admin with experience of similar past debates, to decide if it is or isn't and then get back to me. I didn't reference you either so I'm not sure what your problem is. --Borisashton ☎ 22:11, May 25, 2020 (UTC)

it seemed like a sneaky attempt to point out that my discussion needed deleted by admins, despite me telling you that it was about two different topics. if thats not the case i apologise. DiSoRiEnTeD1 ☎
Take a minute to think your replies through before posting them, Disoriented. You need to keep a calm head and respond professionally. :) TheFartyDoctor Talk 22:18, May 25, 2020 (UTC)
I'll also note that other users pointed out that the other rationale for leaving the thread open, placing companions into the slots that already exist, isn't necessarily sufficient for a thread to exist. So it's not as if he just hadn't considered this angle. It's not sneaky to ask an admin to close a thread he doesn't think should exist, though I don't think that's what he did here. Najawin ☎ 22:21, May 25, 2020 (UTC)
i dont think he represented the thread correctly. if he thinks that the second topic isnt worthy that would be fine, but he only mentioned one part of it - that i had already told him i was distancing myself from and focusing on the second part, that is why i thought it was rude. as i said, if it was unintentional i apologise - it did not need two others jumping in telling me to calm down or other suggestions. DiSoRiEnTeD1 ☎
I don't appreciate the implication that I was being "sneaky" and it could be construed as a violation of T:NPA. I asked Czech about this because I used a quote from him that unambiguously indicated that the thread should be closed and your explanation of the several other topics the thread covered could have thrown this interpretation into doubt (though not in my eyes) hence why I asked him for clarification for this specific discussion. Me asking Czech was actually in support of your interests and, depending on what he responds with, could change my position on the closing of the thread. --Borisashton ☎ 22:28, May 25, 2020 (UTC)
i did not call you sneaky, or imply it. i simply said that is what i thought - to answer why i said that i thought your comment was rude, and i said that i apologise if this wasnt the case. DiSoRiEnTeD1 ☎

Excuse me?

Hello. I would like to know why you accused my edit here of 'vandalism'. This is a rather rude and hostile accusation to make against my editing and my character. If the edit was incorrect, you are better to explain to me civilly why rather than rashly accuse me of vandalism which is hardly an appropriate or civil reaction on your part.

I had already posted on Banana’s page why both edits were problematic, and I explained to you that one was problematic but you still went and changed them both back and told me to check a talk page that had no verdict! DiSoRiEnTeD1 ☎
Posting on Banana's page is hardly reason to expect me to know that. It's a bit much to expect users to go around looking on another's user's talk page for verification (especially without prior knowledge to such discussion) on a matter as it is their talk page rather than my own.
Plus, I do not recall where you explained to me it was problematic. Perhaps you could source that claim? Also, I notice your passion for edits concerning this companion dilemma but is it really necessary to shout at users? Snivy ✦ The coolest Pokemon ever ✦ 12:01, May 26, 2020 (UTC)
my comment on Banana's page was right before your removal of my correct edits, as was tagged with "problematic edits" - so maybe that would hold a clue as to why i made the changes and would have prevented you from undoing it? DiSoRiEnTeD1 ☎
I think it is a bit much to expect me to look at another user's talk page every time someone leaves a message there. I'm not even staff on this wiki, so has no jurisdiction to look at another's talk page without someone calling my attention to it first. Snivy ✦ The coolest Pokemon ever ✦ 12:07, May 26, 2020 (UTC)
