Leave me a message!

Welcome!

My god, you already have a goal of a thousand edits?!! :-D Be sure to use "show preview" often, or else its cheating ;-)

Anyway, be welcome, and if there is anything I can help you with you can leave me a message here.

Now I got it. I feel embarassed, you must think I'm dumb for not noticing the Show preview button right next to the Save page button. I'll use it from now on. Thanks for your support, I really like it here, Wikipedia is great, and my goal may be a little ambitious, but I like to set my sights high. Everyone seems so friendly here, I'm definately going to stay. --M.B. 04:38, 30 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hahaha! Not at all dumb, most practiced editors dont use the preview button that often! :-) Although some editors (mostly sufferers from Editcountitis) make minor changes, save, then correct, save, then remove typos, save. Thus Editcount is a very, VERY variable score, depending on how meticulous you edit.

If the score seems off, I wouldnt know. You should ask User:Interiot, he made an editcount tool and is very knowledgabel on the topic.

Glad you like it here! Although sadly not everybody here is friendly and helpful, there's enough spirit to make & keep you addicted!

Oh, and also, try to make good use of the Edit summary. They help other users quickly to identify the nature of your edit. This makes it easier to keep track of the changes on any given page, ans in turn helps to keep track of the unconstructive acts of vandalism which also occur. Its considered good manners to always leave an edit summary for even the tiniest of edits. Greets, The Minist e r of War ^(Peace) 13:31, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
