User talk:The Triad
Thanks for your recent edits! I'm Jimbo, your robot wiki representative! We hope you'll keep on editing with us. This is actually a great time to have joined, because we're now fully independent, and working on a host of new features!
We've got a couple of important quirks for a fan written 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 use another form of English, 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
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 an admin.
New Categories
Before creating new categories please discuss them on the forums. This will save any disappointment if the categories get deleted and will also save time and server space. The Thirteenth Doctor 22:46, August 5, 2010 (UTC)
Catagories
Sorry about not telling you with your permission can I continue.

- I'd leave a note in the forums first before making any more edits. Give people a couple of days to reply then if you get the all clear you can continue to add them. I would be in favour of having the categories, but it's not just up to me, the community has to decide together. You can start a new forum page discussing the category here.

Fair enough oh and out of curiousate who is your favorotie doctor.
