I have just undone your revision stating that River Song killed the Doctor at Lake Silencio.  Although as things look right now, you are probably correct, until we actually see her do the dirty deed this Saturday, this ranks as speculative and jumping the gun.  A simple undo is probably the most provocative way to edit on this wiki, and I apologize for any seeming indifference to your feelings or your attempt to help make this wiki better, but it will have to wait a few days.  If you wish to discuss this, please feel free to do so.[[User:Boblipton|Boblipton]] 01:55, September 28, 2011 (UTC)

Sorry about this, but I need to stop you from editing for the next 30 minutes or so.  You're breaking categories on every page you touch.  I need to investigate why you're doing this, and can't have you continue to do it.  Please bear with me while I try to figure out how the heck you're doing this. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}&nbsp;<span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">02:16: Wed&nbsp;28 Sep 2011&nbsp;</span>

:I have now investigated all 18 of your edits.  And I've reverted them all.  I'm not sure if you quite realise it, but all your edits reduced the level of information that the articles possessed.  You drastically reduced the number of working categories on each page, often linking to categories which did not exist.

:It appears like [[tardis:vandalism policy|vandalism]], but I'm going to believe, for now, that you didn't quite know what you were doing.  So when your block expires in a few minutes, '''please do not remove categories from any page'''.  I think you need to spend some time examining our category structure before you start fiddling with categories.  Please start at [[:category:floor 500]] and just look around our category structure for a bit.

::Heya :)  I see you're continuing to add categories that do not exist.  '''Please don't do this.'''  Please utilise the autosuggest feature.  When you start adding a category by typing <pre>[[category:</pre> you'll get some suggestions as soon as you type the first letter after the colon (:).  Click on the appropriate category as it comes up, and the system will fill in the rest for you, and thereby you'll be sure of getting the right spelling for the category name.

::Note that ''spelling'' is '''very important''' with categories. First Doctor enemies (a category which does exist) is a different category from First Doctor Enemies (a category which does not).

::Please only add categories that automatically show up, and consider adding [[MediaWiki:FixMe.css]] to your personal CSS (there are instructions at that page) so that you can actually see when you've added a bad category name.  If you add FixMe.css to your persona CSS, un-created categories will show up <span style="color:red">in red</span>, while created categories will be blue.    {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}&nbsp;<span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">02:25: Fri&nbsp;30 Sep 2011&nbsp;</span>
