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.
Cyber Lord and Gallifrey
No where in-universe is the Cyberman that appeared in A Good Man Goes to War is identified as a "Cyber Lord". Please do not add this information again or create a page relating it until we have further information.
Also the books, TV, comics are all held equally with regard to how this wiki covers information, the TV is no higher authority than the books. Thanks. --Tangerineduel / talk 14:52, June 8, 2011 (UTC)
The Cyberman that appears in The Next Doctor is never identified as a Cyber-Lord either. And as a wiki you should be giving accurate information. The spin-offs are of dubious canonicity, the TV series is primary. In fact all science fiction works in the same way: the original medium has primary say. If the TV series outright debunks the Loom bull, then there were no Looms.
