Standardizing your user page

Hi and welcome again. If you want to add an infobox to your userpage, you can go to Template:User infobox and copy the text there. Then, edit your userpage and paste the copied text there, customizing it as you wish. Hope that helps!--MiamiVolts (talk) 18:40, 27 May 2009 (EDT)

Thanks!--ERROR 18:46, 27 May 2009 (EDT)

How come the abilities I list myself to have don't appear on my infobox?--ERROR 16:08, 29 May 2009 (EDT)

• hope you don't mind, but I fixed it for you :) --IronyUTC CH 16:12, 29 May 2009 (EDT)

Thanks, but you didn't. Ask permission first! My stuff!--ERROR 16:29, 29 May 2009 (EDT)

• Where is this? On your userpage or on another page? --IronyUTC CH 16:31, 29 May 2009 (EDT)

My userpage.--ERROR 16:38, 29 May 2009 (EDT)

• • It does show your abilities, under the about bar. --IronyUTC CH 16:40, 29 May 2009 (EDT)

Does now. Thanks!--ERROR 17:31, 29 May 2009 (EDT)

Etiquette

Hey, Error. Welcome to the wiki! Just a quick tip for you about talk page etiquette, to go along with your great edits elsewhere. It's really not necessary to correct the grammar, punctuation, capitalization, etc. of other users on talk pages. In fact--and I don't mean this as a criticism, just as something to watch out for--some of your corrections are actually turning correct things and making them incorrect. Not a big deal overall, but it's probably best just not to edit other peoples' comments. Thanks for understanding! :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 22:21, 29 May 2009 (EDT)

Sure, okay. Sorry. I just can't help it. But what's etiquette? Is that when you edit other people's stuff? And how do you know it's me?--ERROR 09:52, 30 May 2009 (EDT)

• They can check any page's history and see who edited what. And etiquette is a fancy word for manners.--Boom D  83  10:00, 30 May 2009 (EDT)

By "they," you mean "we," right? If so, I understand completely.

But how is my corrections turning correct things into incorrect things?

And what's an administrator?--ERROR 16:04, 1 June 2009 (EDT)

• • An administrator is the people in charge of looking after the whole website, there are 5 currently with Admin being the one who is in charge, as he created the website. Also some people may be annoyed if you correct their spelling and punctuation. --posted by Laughingdevilboy

I realize that editing bothers people... If it didn't, I would fix YOUR spelling error (Ah, what the heck. But that's the last time, I promise!). You said nothing new, nothing that helps me (In that regard, anyways. You told me what an administrator is - though I expected being an administrator automatically gives you some form of authority. Does it?).

Again, how is my editing turning correct things into incorrect things?--ERROR 20:58, 5 June 2009 (EDT)

• For example, the following is correct:

Usutu's girlfriend has found two rabbits... she thinks they're really cool.

• This, however, is incorrect:

Usutu's girlfriend has found two rabbits... She thinks they're really cool.

• As you can see, the "she thinks they're really cool" part isn't its own sentence, so doesn't get capitalized. You did this sort of "correcting" on the page that Ryan linked to above, which is probably what Ryan means when he says you're making things incorrect. --Radicell 12:33, 6 June 2009 (EDT)

Ohhh... didn't know that. :)--ERROR 16:46, 6 June 2009 (EDT)

Assignment Trackers

I've started a few Assignment Trackers, and would like help finishing/editing them. I would also like suggestions for other Assignment Trackers.--ERROR 09:31, 4 June 2009 (EDT)

Links

Hi there, I noticed you seem to be changing links to go straight to a page instead of using a redirect, there is nothing wrong with this but there are hundreds of them on this site so it may take you a while, just thought I would give you a warning as too how many links you would need to change. --posted by Laughingdevilboy Talk 16:11, 6 June 2009 (EDT) I'm not searching them out, just making those changes when I get the opportunity. Thanks for the heads-up, though.--ERROR 16:47, 6 June 2009 (EDT)
