Welcome to this wiki! Dwarf Fortress rapidly becomes more complicated, and we're always glad to have new writers.
Welcome! "Copy/paste errours" are mainly just due to editor laziness - if you check the info against the RAW files, or against actual gameplay, check that every keystroke and token and announcement color appear the same (we don't expect perfection, tho' it'd always be nice), then you're good to go.

- From the raws that I've looked at, it looks like there are still a few small errors to be ironed out, like unicorns giving birth to elk fawns, which has been ascribed to Toady copy-pasting. I expect that will be fixed soon, but until then would it be best to hold off on adding that information to pages? Thanks! --JohnnyMadhouse 19:36, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
Just wanted to say nice work on the traps page.

template:L
A regular [[]] link points to an article in the main namespace, but every page there is a redirect that looks like [[cv:somepage]]. These cv links are a precaution for the future: they always point to namespace corresponding to the most recent version. So regular [[]] links will point to more recent pages when (well, if) they show up. This is a bit of a problem if you want to specify which page you're linking to. So one way to do it is to type out [[DF2010:mylink|mylinkname]] which will link to the specified page in the specified namespace. The alternative is to use template:L, which generates a link to the namespace of the page it's placed on.
- tl;dr: {{L|link|linkname}} is preferred over [[link|linkname]] VengefulDonut 15:09, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
