Welcome to the Web Guide to Doctor Who!

But first, a word from our sponsors...

This FAQ-a-like outlines a mere smidgen of the number of Web pages there are
out there in the great wide world which are, however loosely, based upon
Doctor Who.

This guide gets posted every Friday to rec.arts.drwho and to
rec.arts.drwho.info

Updates can be mailed to the email address below. Please state CLEARLY the
name of the site and its URL at least. It would be nice to include the name
of the person(s) responsible and their email address(es) but bear in mind
this information will be posted to USENet.

There are two mailing lists attached to this Guide. Please contact me at the
email address below if you would like to receive either of these:

Flavour A: A text-only version, an exact copy of what gets posted to the
newsgroups.

Flavour B: An HTML version, ripe and ready to put on your own homepages (you
are welcome to do this as long as you credit me and show the submission's
email address)

STANDARD DISCLAIMER:

I hereby absolve myself of all responsibility of wherever these links may
take you. I simply catalogue the links that I am given, after altering them
if necessary to point to the Doctor Who content of the site. If there is no
Doctor Who content, the link is likely to be removed.

At the time of addition, all sites had some Doctor Who content. I make no
promises that, at the current time, any site will be related to Doctor Who.
If, for example, any site now contains material of an offensive nature then
I am in no way responsible for that. Please notify the owner of the site as
well as myself.

I reserve the right to add or remove sites at will with no prior notice. I
reserve the right to alter the categorisation of sites at any time.


From now on, only NEW sites, GOLD sites, Mirrors for the guide and sites in
the "Check it Out!" section will be posted to the news groups weekly. This
is because the Guide has become rather large and it would be a waste of
bandwidth to repost so frequently. Please visit one of the mirror sites or
subscribe to one of the mailing lists if you are interested in more regular
updates.

The full guide will periodically be posted (hopefully monthly) to the USENet
groups.

For further information, or for submitting sites to the guide, or for
information on subscribing to the email lists, please send your email to:
webg...@kasterborus.demon.co.uk
