From the real world[[edit source]]

Please note that all pages filed into one of the "...from the real world" categories — like Mini — must have a {{wikipediainfo}} tag.

Renaming pages[[edit source]]

If your going to rename a page, put a notice on the discusion page.Retsinif talk to me 17:21, November 14, 2011 (UTC)

Please note that the above is not the policy of this wiki. It is a good idea in some cases, particularly where there's an obvious cause for debate about a name, but it's certainly not required that, on each and every occasion one moves a page, one starts a discussion about it. Some moves are completely non-controversial, such as when the name is misspelled or obviously in violation of Tardis:Disambiguation policy.
I don't know what move the above user is talking about. He may have been quie correct in suggesting that, for that particular move, a discussion was necessary. But it's not right to say that discussions must precede every move.

Planets[[edit source]]

Hi, please don't add Category:Planets to any article that has a category which is already a sub-category of the Category:Planets category. As they're a sub-category of planets, it means they're already in that category. So to take the case of Ribos, it already has Category:Planets visited by the Fourth Doctor, which is a sub-category of Category:Planets visited by the Doctor, which itself is a category of Category:Planets. This case is incidentally the same for Category:Individuals and Category:Humans, anything in subcategories of those categories does not need Cat:Individuals or Cat:Humans adding to the articles, and Cat:Species. --Tangerineduel / talk 16:33, December 2, 2011 (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!
