More bad disambiging
Daniel Matthews and Daniel Matthews (Auton) should be moved around as Daniel Matthews (actor) and Daniel Matthews, as in-universe terms always take precedence. -- Tybort (talk page) 01:34, February 11, 2012 (UTC)
- Have a similar problem with Guy Adams and the as-yet unmade Guy Adams (Timeless) -- Tybort (talk page) 02:28, February 11, 2012 (UTC)
The diambigu-arrrghhhh
Just noticed there's a minor trickster character in a Fifth Doctor story. Is THE Trickster sufficient disambiguation enough with the SJA villain? Also, what about the page "Trickster"? Should that lead to the Sarah Jane villain? Nine of its twelve links clearly refer to the SJA character. (As well as one I corrected that for some reason led to the Trickster's Brigade) -- Tybort (talk page) 14:52, February 13, 2012 (UTC)
Third Doctor comic images
Okay, so I have collected the images you requested for the page. I have looked across multiple comics with very good images that I hope we can use to illistrate the page.
- First off, you asked for 4 TVA images. The first, of coarse, is File:Abe Lincoln.jpg, which we discussed before. The next is a similar image, File:Third Doctor Nazi.jpg, which is also one of those stand-off-ish images. The next is this one, which I choose because it contained Finney, who is one of the more popular comic-companions.
- Next, you asked for an image of the Doctor and one of his "boy" companions. I choose the Doctor and Nick, the first African American companion.
- you also requested an image from a comic story produced later. I choose two. File:Target Practice.jpg is, like you suggested, from Target Practice. I also want to include this image from Death to the Doctor!, because of it's varying style and it's recency. I realise that it does not work well on the page, so I have cropped it down here.
- And last of all, you asked me to find a pre-TVA TvC image, which I admitt is my weak spot, and this is the best I could find. I'm sure you have a better stock of TVC images then me, so I dont mind if you replace that one...
Just incase you find any of my images unsatisfactory, I have also supplied some replacements; File:Third Doctor and Ace.jpg File:TheVortex.jpg File:Fourth Doctor & Third Dcotor Sea Devils.png File:Change of mind.jpg
Hope my images are satisfactory.. OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 01:48, February 14, 2012 (UTC)
Re: Five Doctors
Well, I'll admit the first one I uploaded was not from the special edition re-release, but the second one was. I apologise if it is not up to standards. Do you have any thoughts on the comic images I sent you in the last message? OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 03:52, February 14, 2012 (UTC)
- The fram-grabber I use is AVS Video Editor, what would you suggest? OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 04:05, February 14, 2012 (UTC)
The visual editor has been disabled. I see no way of using templates to inser things like IMDB pages, namesorts, etc.Boblipton talk to me 21:57, February 17, 2012 (UTC)
Yes, you did go over it twice. And I used the simple method and am sufficiently annoyed at the disregard of my wishes t not be in the mood to relearn how to do this work. You are aware that the first line of most of the stuff is not easily amanageable -- no longer available highlight and paste. I'm sure there is a nice explanation of how to go about doing that. However, the wisdom of learning how to do it the new way is questionable whn it may very well be changed. Boblipton talk to me 22:52, February 17, 2012 (UTC)
Misnamings by the bot
THe Wedding of River Song (TV story) and THe waters of Mars (TV story) are...well, you can sort of see for yourself. Can these be moved to the proper place? How did the bot do that, anyway? -- Tybort (talk page) 13:17, February 18, 2012 (UTC)
- Small World (TV story) should be Small Worlds with an s. -- Tybort (talk page) 20:17, February 19, 2012 (UTC)
Thanks
Hi there, just to say thanks for the advice on what to do with pictures. I recently recieved my Mannequin Mania boxset so looked at the story's articles and decided that they needed some pictures, so sorry if for a bit I made things a bit confusing for you LOL by adding them all without the right tags. I know now though, and will bear that in mind in future when adding new pictures. Also thanks for the welcome, hehe yeah sorry I didn't realise that creating my own talk page delayed the welcome but thanks for the links, they look very helpful. So, yes, thanks and happy editing :) --Dalek194 talk to me 18:22, February 19, 2012 (UTC)
Ah, ok, thanks again :) By the way, I just noticed files like that of the First Doctor handbook cover, which predominantly feature one Doctor but have small thumbnails of the other, are categorised as under all of the Doctor's photograph pages... shouldn't this be changed? I know that I'm probably wrong, but it seems a little silly that all of the handbook covers be categorised under all of the Doctors when each cover is specific to one of them. Thanks :) --Dalek194 talk to me 22:32, February 19, 2012 (UTC)
Bot suggestion
Shouldn't The ArcHive Tapes (audio story) be renamed "The ArcHive Tapes (audio series)?" OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 21:37, February 19, 2012 (UTC)
More bot work
The content of the page Out of Time (disambiguation) should lead to Out of Time, while in the meantime all links to Out of Time (so far as I can tell) all lead to the TV story. I'm not sure why that went unnoticed even before the mass move to (TV story). -- Tybort (talk page) 21:55, February 19, 2012 (UTC)
Images
Thanks and sorry. May I point out a mistake? At Attack of the Graske, the image biotin goes to Category:Attack of the Graske TV story images instead of Category:Attack of the Graske video game images. OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 03:01, February 20, 2012 (UTC)
Standard apostrophes
I just saw the message you left on Victory93's page and thought I'd just mention that it may have been unintentional and not deliberate. I used to bulk write EDA pages offline, in Word which introduced those punctuation problems like the apostrophe and also ellipsis which don't look any different in Word (also TextEdit with the ellipsis). You also can't tell the difference looking at them, until you come to type and link them (which gave me a lot of problems with Sometime Never...). The apostrophe use as you noted can also be seen in a lot of User:The Librarian's contributions, they're of less concern but it is still notable if you know to look for them. --Tangerineduel / talk 14:35, February 20, 2012 (UTC)

Video games and books
Thank you for making a decision on the Happy Deathday page... May I ask however, if we should do the same for The Five Doctors... Or if that's a little too much.
Also, I also added Who Killed Kennedy to Category:Books from the real world, as the book itself is an in-universe book... Every page in it is a page from a book in the DWU... So should we make a separate page for the in-universe book itself? OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 16:20, February 23, 2012 (UTC)
Category
Hi Czechout. Is there supposed to be Category:Books from the real world on your talk page. I didn't want to remove it from earlier instances. !ṂěṭáṛdIṢ 2024Satatpm 22: 49Just William Wiki
Yeah, sorry about that. I only activated it purely too see what it looked liked, how it worked and too see if it would work and fit in with our theme. But, as you said, it does need at lot of work, if we ever activate it again. MM/Want to talk? 23:26, February 23, 2012 (UTC)
- Honestly, I has completely forgotten about that. I'll remember it next time, I have the urge to play, which quite frankly, is quite often. MM/Want to talk? 23:28, February 23, 2012 (UTC)
TV story pages/categories
Is there a reason that Amy's Choice hasn't been moved to the new nomenclature? It and the Category:Amy's Choice TV story images don't exist. I thought I'd hold off on creating/moving them as the move has been your realm.
Also on a related note the template on Category:Doctor Who (1996) TV story images doesn't link to the story. Which I guess is similar to Amy's Choice, as [[[Doctor Who (1996)]] also hasn't been moved. Though I'm not sure about having double brackets of stuff in the story name. --Tangerineduel / talk 14:30, February 24, 2012 (UTC)
Monobook skin
Isn't the monobook skin finished by now? The last edit was October 3, 2011. Random? No. Admin on the Simpsons Wiki. Say something. 19:58, February 24, 2012 (UTC)
Renaming
Don'cha think that File:vlcsnap-2011-10-17-17h34m35s33.png should be renamed? I can't so I'm sure admins can, like on [1]? Thanks !ṂěṭáṛdIṢ 2024Satatpm 22: 49Just William Wiki
