Hi. I was recently (in mid-March, '10) appointed to the '''[[Dwarf_Fortress_Wiki:Request_for_Adminship/Albedo|Admin]]''' staff on this site, mainly for my understanding of wiki style and how this DF wiki is put together, rather than any exceptional expertise/understanding of arcanities of wiki code. If I left a message on your Talk page, it was probably as an Admin, unless it was clearly otherwise. | Hi.

You seem to be interested in changing these. How do you like what I did?--[[User:Zchris13|Zchris13]] 01:44, 24 May 2009 (UTC) | You seem to be interested in changing these. How do you like what I did?--[[User:Zchris13|Zchris13]] 01:44, 24 May 2009 (UTC) | ||

First, let's be clear about some of what was deleted - here's the first that caught my eye. Note that no distinction was made between DF and RL information... | First, let's be clear about some of what was deleted - here's the first that caught my eye.

:I have to agree with Albedo at all points. RL info has to be clearly separated, set ''below'' the DF info, focused on helping with the game, and '''short'''. To my best knowledge, Chrysocolla has ''nothing'' to do with Malachite and is ''not'' a "secondary copper mineral". I also recall someone adding a lot of well meant details in lots of 40d articles on animals that were plain wrong. In fact, checking, some of that bullsh** is still in ([[40d:Alligator]]). Plus, instead of getting the DF2010 namespace up to speed with actual game info, we have mineral enthusiast who copy wikipedia content and put pretty pictures in.
