Your user page — that is [[user:whatever your name is]] — is the best place to share information about you — and the best place to tell us what you're editing here at Tardis, or at Wikia in general.
For example, you may wish to list contributions of which you're proud. You might want to tell us the languages in which you can write. Or you may want to give us a sense of the DWU characters or stories you favour.
User pages, when used to share your editing experience or your Doctor Who preferences can be a powerful way to stimulate productive conversation between members. You'd be surprised how a sense of community can grow when another editor contacts you to talk about your favourite episode or companion.
Think of your user page as a conversation starter, and you'll be well on your way to writing a belter!
Here's some additional advice from Wikipedia, a wiki with a long experience of user pages.
