Welcome and AdviceEdit
Hi there Allanon - welcome to the wiki! I hope you enjoy using the site and find the information on it useful. If you decide you want to help improve any of our pages, we're always welcoming to new editors so feel free. You might want to look at our Getting Started page for some tips on how to begin, then play in our Sandbox for a while to practice. If you need any help or advice, please ask one of our mentors.
One piece of advice though. Please could you make use of the "Show preview" button at the bottom of the edit window rather than saving multiple copies of pages? Each edit needs to be checked by a Patroller and the 40+ edits you made to your user page clogged up the Recent Changes page something rotten. Thanks. --Rpeh•T•C•E• 04:19, 18 October 2007 (EDT)
Yeah, I'm aware of that, sorry. It was my first time using Wiki so I really didn't know what the hell I was doing. Allanon 06:25, 22 October 2007 (EDT)
- Oh - and you can auto-sign your posts on talk pages by typing four tilde characters (~~~~). Much easier than doing it yourself! --Rpeh•T•C•E• 06:29, 22 October 2007 (EDT)
I've known this, but for some reason, it doesn't autolink. ( Allanon 06:38, 22 October 2007 (EDT) ) Allanon
- Have you turned on "Raw signatures" in your Preferences? If you have, you won't get an auto link unless you do it specifically (like mine). --Rpeh•T•C•E• 07:12, 22 October 2007 (EDT)
Ah yes, that was the problem, thank you! Allanon 07:20, 22 October 2007 (EDT)
Welcome and some more AdviceEdit
Hi! I wanted to say welcome too. Oh, and about the table layout code, sure you can use it, I learned the basic layout from Rpeh and just changes the some things a little. Next time, however, when you are editing a talk or discussion page, be sure to sign the post with four tildes so that we know who posted. It will automatically link to your userpage and show the time and date. Vesna 21:01, 18 October 2007 (EDT)
Thanks, both of you, for the welcomes and advice. Allanon 06:25, 22 October 2007 (EDT)
