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:

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.

Redlinks are good!

Hiya :) Thanks for your edits to the Earth mammals pages. I hope you're enjoying playing the Game of Rassilon. However, I must ask you not to deprive articles of their redlinks, as you did at porcupine. Redlinks, like that articles link to the non-existent salt, provide a valuable counter. The more redlinks there are to a word, the higher it goes up the list at Special:WantedPages, and therefore the more likely it is that someone will create hte pages.

If you've been taking out redlinks on other Earth mammals pages, please now put them back. Think of it this way: you'll have gotten double points in the game for making an honest mistake! That's a deal, right?

No worries. Easy enough mistake to make. I didn't figure you were being malicious. Yeah, our general rule of thumb around here is that anything that is mentioned in a narrative potentially gets a page. And salt is clearly mentioned in several stories. We just haven't gotten around to writing the page yet.

Recent category adding

Hi, I've rolled back a series of your edits where you've added categories like Category:United States of America locations to Wall Street, this article (and similarly others you've added "country/region locations" categories) are already within a sub-category of USA locations. See Category:New York City locations, you can see that it's within the USA locations category. So because it's in that category the USA locations category doesn't need to be added to this article. The same goes for European locations.

Usually the most specific category had been added, the more general location categories are an upper level category used to hold the sub-categories or for general subjects that don't fit into the smaller sub-categories. --Tangerineduel / talk 14:14, September 23, 2011 (UTC)
