One last bit of advice: please sign any discussion comment with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>). The software will automatically convert this into your signature which can be altered in the "Preferences" tab at the top of the screen. I hope I have not overwhelmed you with information. If you need any help just let me know. Once again welcome to Wikipedia, and don't forget to [[Wikipedia:User page|tell us about]] [[User:{{PAGENAME}}|yourself]] and be [[Wikipedia:Be bold in updating pages|'''BOLD''']]! |
