User talk:Sinergistic

You don't have to sign on the summary or on main pages, thought I don't think you did that. The only time you must sign is on talk pages. You should always sign though, or else the signature police might come after you!--Destor 22:25, 4 January 2009 (EST)

Ah, I see. I've been reading the wiki for a while now, and the one constant is people getting on other peoples cases for not singing, so I figured I was better safe than sorry :)

Gracias for the inservice, I'll keep it in mind if I ever edit anything again. --Sinergistic 22:49, 4 January 2009 (EST)

In case that was unclear, you tried to sign in the "summary" box that appears below the edit part, you don't have to do that. Sorry if I made that unclear, but it's kinda late. Maybe I should just go to bed...--Destor 23:02, 4 January 2009 (EST)

No, you made perfect sense. Only sign on talk pages. I kinda figured it out for my self when I went back to 'recent changes' page and saw it didn't work. I then noticed that is automatically tags your name onto the change. Also, indulging your desire to sleep is important. Good night. --Sinergistic 23:08, 4 January 2009 (EST)

Welcome

Edward pulls out the official welcome pamphlet and hands it to you.
He decides not to go into any further detail since you seem like the competent sort.

Welcome to this wiki! Dwarf Fortress rapidly becomes more complicated, and we're always glad to have new writers.
Since we prefer that you try to follow our wiki's standards, we've made a list of basic guidelines. This is a template.

• To let us know who you are, please sign your posts on discussion pages by typing --~~~~ after your posts. This can also be inserted with the button if JavaScript is enabled.
• Never 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. Put exactly one empty line between comments by different users but do not use blank lines inside of a comment. If your comment has no indents, use <br> after each line.
• 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. Don't put things in the wrong sections. If necessary, create a section.
• Most importantly, read and follow the rules. Really. Read them.

"You have been processed! Go forth, now, and edit!" --Savok

I have the sinking suspicion I have done *something* wrong, but I shall try to adhere the above. Especially 'Preview' (which I never use enough). And minor edits. Thank you for the welcome! --Sinergistic 21:46, 5 January 2009 (EST)

Nothing really, just noticed you were a new user (as denoted by the already addressed signature on article problem above) and gave ya the standard greeting template. I figured you were skilled enough to probably not need it for the most part, but it never hurts to hand it out. --Edward 23:26, 14 January 2009 (EST)
