User talk:Thalek Prime Overseer
Thalek Prime OverseerThanks 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. SOTO ☎ 17:32, October 10, 2019 (UTC)
Cyber-Lieutenant
Hey. Well, since Mondas isn't the only location where they come from, we can't leave it as just "Mondas", of course. But, as I mentioned, just putting "various" isn't informative to a reader. The general idea is that infoboxes is for more general, non-ambiguous information. As there might be too many origins, as you pointed out, the best course of action is probably to just leave the infobox with nothing in the "origins" section, and add the information in the page itself.

Renaming page
Hey there. Hope you're well ^_^ I saw your recent edit desiring to rename Parallel dimension (Telepresence) so I added the {{Rename}} template to hopefully spark discussion for it. Please feel free to add your reasons for the rename at the page's talk page. Be sure to sign your comments after writing. Good luck. Snivy ✦ The coolest Pokemon ever ✦ 19:57, June 4, 2020 (UTC)
Re: colony ship
Hi, a pipe switch is when you type [[banana|bananas]] instead of just typing [[banana]]s. Both methods show up as "bananas". We ask editors to not pipe-switch if it isn't necessary. You can find more details and a complete explanation at Thread:123048.
As for your edit, you can undo the reversion I did and just go through and correct the times you pipe-switched unnecessarily so you don't have to rewrite your entire edit(s). Thanks Shambala108 ☎ 02:38, August 28, 2020 (UTC)
