Welcome to this wiki! Dwarf Fortress rapidly becomes more complicated, and we're always glad to have new writers.<br>

==Apologies==

Since we prefer that you try to follow our wiki's standards, we've made a list of basic guidelines. This is a template.

I'm sorry you were offended by my edit, but I'd like to direct you to the note at the bottom of the edit page: ''"Please note that all contributions to Dwarf Fortress Wiki may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors. If you do not want your writing to be edited mercilessly, then do not submit it here."'' ... it's pretty much counter-productive to consider any article on a wiki as "your article". I simply read the talk page for the article, agreed with it, and made the change. "Be bold" is a common wiki rule, here and on other wikis. I will try in the future to communicate such changes to those who may be interested in/involved with an article, and to provide more detail in the edit summary.

* To let us know who you are, please sign your posts on discussion pages by typing <code><nowiki>--~~~~</nowiki></code> after your posts. This can also be inserted with the [[Image:Button sig756222.png]] button if JavaScript is enabled.

:Thanks. I recently re-read my response above and realized it was a little more ... stern? than I meant it to be. I think we're on the same page, thanks for the civility and quick response. [[User:JubalHarshaw|JubalHarshaw]] 16:06, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

* 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 <code><nowiki><br></nowiki></code> 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, [[DwarfFortressWiki:Community_Portal#We_are_doing_this.21_Let_us_do_it_right.|read and follow the rules.]] Really. Read them.

Apologies[edit]

I'm sorry you were offended by my edit, but I'd like to direct you to the note at the bottom of the edit page: "Please note that all contributions to Dwarf Fortress Wiki may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors. If you do not want your writing to be edited mercilessly, then do not submit it here." ... it's pretty much counter-productive to consider any article on a wiki as "your article". I simply read the talk page for the article, agreed with it, and made the change. "Be bold" is a common wiki rule, here and on other wikis. I will try in the future to communicate such changes to those who may be interested in/involved with an article, and to provide more detail in the edit summary.

Thanks. I recently re-read my response above and realized it was a little more ... stern? than I meant it to be. I think we're on the same page, thanks for the civility and quick response. JubalHarshaw 16:06, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
