User talk:Immibis

Welcome to this wiki! Dwarf Fortress rapidly becomes more complicated, and we're always glad to have new writers.
Since you should try to follow wiki standards, and you probably don't know ours yet, we've made a list of basic guidelines. Note that this is a template, not a customized message for you.

• To tell us who you are when you talk, please sign your posts on discussion pages by typing --~~~~ after your posts. This can also be inserted with the button if JavaScript is enabled.
• Don't put a question mark in the title of a page. Question marks mess things up, and your page will be moved to a different name.
• When making comments on a talk page, use one more colon before each line in your comment than was used in the comment you reply to. In general, put exactly one empty line between comments by different users but do not use blank lines inside of a comment.
• Avoid making many small edits to a page. Instead, try to make one large edit. This makes the history of the page a lot easier to read.
• Don't edit the user page of another user. If you want to tell them something, add the comment to their talk page.
• If you put a comment at the bottom of a talk page with section headers, you've probably put it in a section. Putting things in the wrong sections is confusing. You can create a section!
• Generally, read and follow the rules. They're like a little constitution, except not boring! Really, read them.

New pages & links & etc

Hi. Nice pages - except... a wiki works on links. Links to, links from. Your Dwarf cancels fill pond: Inappropriate building page is very short - linking it to pond, channel, zone - all that allows a reader (esp a newbie) to move directly to related topics. Similar with Their wagon has bypassed your inaccessible site - wagon, trade depot, merchant - how do you "clear a path"? A See Also: comment at the bottom could work too. The more links to/from, the more useful the page is.

Also, use the key template when referring to keystrokes, {{k|D}} or {{key|D}} = D, {{k|Enter}} = Enter, etc. Otherwise, keep up the good work!--Albedo 03:50, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

Redirects

Hey, please use CV for redirects instead of 40d. It allows us to automatically update the redirects for each new version that comes out. Thanks! --Briess 02:04, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

Gypsum plaster casts?

You wrote in the Gypsum Plaster page that it is used to create casts. Where did you get this information from? In the current version, plaster is broken and does not get stored in hospitals nor is it used to make anything, so I'm wondering why you added this info to the wiki.--208.81.12.34 17:46, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

Look at a hospital zone information. "Powder for casts: 0/750". Obviously it's supposed to be stored in a hospital and used for casts, it's just currently broken. Immibis 03:49, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
