Thanks for your edits! We hope you'll keep on editing with us. This is a great time to have joined us, because now you can play the Game of Rassilon with us and win cool stuff! Well, okay, badges. That have no monetary value. And that largely only you can see. But still: they're cool!
We've got a couple of important quirks for a Wikia 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're American, 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:
- the listing of all our help, policy and guideline pages
- our Manual of Style
- our image use policy
- our user page policy
- a list of people whose job it is to help you
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:Thanks for becoming a member of the TARDIS crew! If you have any questions, see the Help pages, add a question to one of the Forums or ask on my talk page. SOTO ☎ 02:00, October 25, 2019 (UTC)
RE:Article talk pages[[edit source]]
It's no problem at all. Everyone needs to learn. I'm no admin, I just wanted to let you know as a more experienced user (to use the term admins use). --DCLM ☎ 08:36, October 29, 2019 (UTC)
- Regardless of who you're responding to, new messages should always be displayed as the last ones. It's easier when discussing/debating in the "board index" sections because you can "quote" what part of a message you're responding to. In talk pages you can't, but new messages should always be last. --DCLM ☎ 13:04, October 29, 2019 (UTC)
- Typically you can look up a policy you do know about, then go to the categories at the bottom and click on the "policies"-category, then it should lead you to a full list of all the policies of the Wikia. Alternatively you can ask an admin to direct you to the policy in question. :) --DCLM ☎ 13:13, October 29, 2019 (UTC)
