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:

Removing content from pages[[edit source]]

Please do not just remove content from pages, if you believe they should be deleted please place a {{proposed deletion}} tag on the page, this will alert admins to it, rather than deleting all content which means the page is still floating around. (And sorry about blocking, have unblocked account, there's recently been a lot of vandalism and made a mistake, sorry about that). --Tangerineduel 16:21, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

Hey there, your recent edit to Gwen Cooper's article has been reverted because the image came from a story that has not been broadcast yet. --Revan\Talk 12:43, May 15, 2011 (UTC)

Mail/Mirror[[edit source]]

Thanks for the heads up. It appears another user read your message and subsequently changed it. It's always a good thing to check references and this time it was clearly helpful. Thanks again.--Skittles the hog - talk 19:18, August 21, 2011 (UTC)

Recent edits[[edit source]]

Hi! I had to revert a couple of your recent edits, and I wanted to let you know why. Info that is relayed to us from behind the scenes, that is, not in the story itself, cannot be used on in-universe pages. That's why we add behind the scenes sections to many pages. You might want to read Tardis:In-universe perspective and Tardis:Out-of-universe perspective to help you understand the difference. Thanks! Shambala108 16:53, June 4, 2013 (UTC)

Christmas cheer[[edit source]]

Happy holidays!

As this fiftieth anniversary year comes to a close, we here at Tardis just want to thank you for being a part of our community — even if you haven't edited here in a while. If you have edited with us this year, then thanks for all your hard work.

This year has seen an impressive amount of growth. We've added about 11,000 pages this year, which is frankly incredible for a wiki this big. November was predictably one of the busiest months we've ever had: over 500 unique editors pitched in. It was the highest number of editors in wiki history for a year in which only one programme in the DWU was active. And our viewing stats have been through the roof. We've averaged well over 2 million page views each week for the last two months, with some weeks seeing over 4 million views!

We've received an unprecedented level of support from Wikia Staff, resulting in all sorts of new goodies and productive new relationships. And we've recently decided to lift almost every block we've ever made so as to allow most everyone a second chance to be part of our community.

2014 promises to build on this year's foundations, especially since we've got a full, unbroken series coming up — something that hasn't happened since 2011. We hope you'll stick with us — or return to the Tardis — so that you can be a part of the fun!
