User talk:Tim Lemmens
Tim LemmensThanks 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. -- Revanvolatrelundar (Talk) 18:51, November 15, 2011

Images[edit source]
Hey, thanks for trying to upload a pic with us! Unfortunately, I had to delete your image of Nine for a coupla reasons. First, it was awfully blurry, and there are surely better images out there. Second, it was reused footage. We don't typically allow flashbacks here, except maybe in behind the scenes sections so as to illustrate the fact that it is a flashback. The Nine bit in Day of the Doctor was not new footage at all, but instead something from series 1.
Another point: I noticed in your placement of the pic on Ninth Doctor that you had specified a width and height for the image. Please don't do this. According to T:THUMB, we do not specify thumbnail sizes in order to allow all of them to have a uniform size.
Before submitting more pics, I encourage you to read our image guide and our simple list of image rules.
Thanks again for your edits :) Keep 'em coming!

Christmas cheer[edit source]
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!
Curator[edit source]
Hi! Please note that we do not allow any speculation, hypotheses, or theories on our articles. Information must come from stories only. The edit you made at Curator (The Day of the Doctor) has been removed. Thanks! Shambala108 ☎ 02:31, July 26, 2014 (UTC)
LEGO Dimensions[edit source]
I've removed your note about all Doctors being playable. As those figures and the seperate Doctor Who pack have still not been released, putting info about those elements are against our spoiler policy. OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 16:29, October 10, 2015 (UTC)
Dub actors[edit source]
Hi! Please make sure when you create new pages for real world actors/dub actors etc that you include the {{Real world}} tag. Don't forget to italicize story titles (see Tardis:Italics). And you need to review our image policies, which you can find located at Thread:148148. Thanks! Shambala108 ☎ 15:12, November 8, 2015 (UTC)
- I'm blocking you for a day because you've continued to make edits against what I've posted here. I will have to clean up your edits (which I don't have time for right now); meanwhile, please read through our image policies — I've had to delete every image you uploaded today because you didn't include a license. Shambala108 ☎ 20:40, November 8, 2015 (UTC)
- Ok, I've cleaned up over 70 of your edits. If you have any more dub actors to add to the site, please keep in mind the following policies:
- Please make sure you read all the image policies at Thread:148148. Your images had no license, and they were not widescreen.
- Also make sure to add {{real world}} and {{NameSort}} tags to your pages. And these pages don't really need stub tags. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎ 01:12, November 9, 2015 (UTC)
Blocking you for a week since you have ignored most of these policies and I have to clean up your edits again. Shambala108 ☎ 15:26, November 21, 2015 (UTC)
