just wondering

Do you have a bot running? I just created this account as a test and got this within about a minuit, so I was curious. My friend's account, 1 black hand, did not get a welcome dispite many edits for at least a month after creation. I would like to know more about the ways users such as yourself find new users, as I was thinking about welcoming newcomers myself. Thank you, Akako

I'm bored, so I decided to go to the New users log page and start welcoming people. It also helps me get warmed up for scrambler ^_^ Deckiller 02:06, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

um...New users doesn't exist--did you mean a different thing with a simaler name?--X66.41.169.244 02:10, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

yeah, sorry. I meant New user Deckiller 02:11, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

thank you for the clarification. I gotta say though, this is the quickest responce I have ever receved from a talk page.--X66.41.169.244 02:12, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

Your welcome! Deckiller 02:14, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

Welcoming

Just a quick tip when welcoming new users, you should subst the {{welcome}} template like so: {{subst:welcome}}. Include your signature at the end as usual. This is generally easier on the server, and makes the welcome message a little more personalized (if you don't subst it, you can edit/view the page source and see that you're just calling a template). It also helps server load, if I recall correctly. =) Anyways, keep up the good work. =) —Locke Cole 02:09, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

Spira

Just enough merging, I think the better is to first create a list of locations regrouping all locations. Then if we find that a location is a major locations (enough info on it to deserve its own article), then it can be on its own. Most of the times, those articles like Zanarkand was are not really containing a lot of info on the place itself but become plot summary. Maintaining them in a list first allows a better control, until it can be decided if it needs an article.--DarkEvil 23:23, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for your note!

I'm looking forward to working with you :-) -Browsing_grammarian

Appreciation

Hey, man, thanks for the compliment. - ElAmericano | talk 16:54, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

Xe...no....gears...

Thanks. I'm not too interested in explaining the complexity of Miang, but I wouldn't mind working on a Ramsus article. I think the title of such an article should be 'Kahran Ramsus' instead of just 'Ramsus.' ArcTheLad 20:18, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

Okay, sounds good. I'll start working on a Miang article, although I agree that it will be a project and a half. I would also give you a big hug if you helped me with the cleanup of the lists ^_^ Deckiller 02:48, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

Thanks

- thanks for adding the tag here - I did not know it was in existence, and it's always nice to know there are other editors looking out for your edits! --HappyCamper 03:32, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

Oh yes, if you spot sockpuppets of your account which need blocking, I'd be more than happy to help you out. --HappyCamper 03:33, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
