== Maintenance lists ==
<div id=tech>Hi. I'm TheMostBoringManInTheWorld, otherwise known as BoringMan, TMBMINTW and MBM. Anyway, I'm new to this wikia, although I'm not that unfamiliar with [[w:|Wikia]], [[wikimedia:|WikiMedia]] and such related MediaWiki projects. I was meaning to ask you whether if it's okay for me to hang around a bit at the [[Special:Specialpages|maintenance reports pages]]? Thanks anyway! [[User:TheMostBoringManInTheWorld|<span style="color:#C0C0C0;">'''TheMostBoringManInTheWorld'''</span>]] [[User talk:TheMostBoringManInTheWorld|<span style="color:#4169E1;">'''(talk)'''</span>]] 16:23, January 3, 2014 (UTC)</div>
What maintenance lists that you can see are obviously available for your use.  You don't need "permission" to hang out at them.  Knock yourself out: they're a great way to establish an editing pattern!
One thing, though: you say you're familiar with Wikia, and your edits so far certainly display a level of familiarity with MediaWiki.  I should inform you that if you do have another Wikia account, you '''[[T:SOCK|are obliged by local policy]]''' to at least name '''all''' your other accounts at [[User:TheMostBoringManInTheWorld]]. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}} 18:20: Fri 03 Jan 2014</span>

: Thanks for clearing that up!
: Anyway, this is my first and only account on Wikia, it's just that I've been inactive for a long time. I spent most of my time on [[w:c:adventuretime:|Adventure Time Wiki]], but I decided to make a stop here first.

== Redlinks ==
Hi! Please note that per [[Tardis:Redlinks]], we do not remove redlinks from pages. They are notices that we need to create new pages. Thanks! [[User:Shambala108|Shambala108]] [[User talk:Shambala108|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 15:58, January 4, 2014 (UTC)
: OK. Thanks! [[User:TheMostBoringManInTheWorld|<span style="color:#C0C0C0;">'''TheMostBoringManInTheWorld'''</span>]] [[User talk:TheMostBoringManInTheWorld|<span style="color:#4169E1;">'''(talk)'''</span>]] 15:59, January 4, 2014 (UTC)
== Trial serial titles ==
I have reverted your usage of the word "unofficial" in the leads of ''all'' articles about ''The Trial of a Time Lord'' sub-serial titles.  As explained at [[Thread:148948#7]], these titles are indeed "official", because the copyright holder has been consistently using them since at least 1993. They were simply not used for broadcast, or ''[[wiktionary:unbroadcast|unbroadcast]]''. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}} 17:37: Sun 05 Jan 2014</span>
: Sorry and thanks. Hope I just didn't cause much trouble. [[User:TheMostBoringManInTheWorld|<span style="color:#C0C0C0;">'''TheMostBoringManInTheWorld'''</span>]] [[User talk:TheMostBoringManInTheWorld|<span style="color:#4169E1;">'''(talk)'''</span>]] 07:39, January 6, 2014 (UTC)
== Just a suggestion ==
Hello, and congratulations on having a longer username than I do. ;)
If you want someone to see your reply to their message, reply on ''their'' talk page. When your talk page gets edited, you — and only you — get a notification. Not so with others. So unless I actively decided to revisit this page to see if there were any updates, I probably wouldn't notice if you replied to this here. I can't necessarily promise that either Shambala or Czech actually saw your replies. There's also no real ''need'' to put your side of the conversation here either, though you are of course free to do what you like.
Anyway, as the title says, just a friendly suggestion. Welcome to the Tardis; I hope you stick around long enough for me to get to know you.<br>--[[user:SmallerOnTheOutside|SmallerOnTheOutside]] [[User talk:SmallerOnTheOutside|☎]] 08:06, January 6, 2014 (UTC)
: I mostly post my replies on my talkpage and copy my posts on other people's talkpages over here for [[wikipedia:Help:Archiving_a_talk_page|archiving reasons]]. I really want to have the both the first and last say in each discussion so that people won't have to bother to go to other people's talkpage archives to have a look on the entire conversation, if they actually need it.
: Anyway, I [[User talk:Shambala108#Re:Redlinks|did]] [[User talk:CzechOut#Trial serial titles|leave]] a message on both CzechOut and Shambala's talkpages, if that is of any sort of help. [[User:TheMostBoringManInTheWorld|<span style="color:#C0C0C0;">'''TheMostBoringManInTheWorld'''</span>]] [[User talk:TheMostBoringManInTheWorld|<span style="color:#4169E1;">'''(talk)'''</span>]] 12:06, January 6, 2014 (UTC)
::I can see that, yeah. :P Anyway, just passing along the way things are normally done here. We're all already in the habit of opening both user talk pages when reading/adding to a discussion, but I will admit ain't always easy to find both ends of the conversation when they're both archived.<br>--[[user:SmallerOnTheOutside|SOTO]] [[User talk:SmallerOnTheOutside|☎]] 18:45, January 6, 2014 (UTC)
