Welcome

Hello Game Lord! Welcome to the wiki. I hope you enjoy using the site and find the information on it useful. If you decide you want to help improve any of our pages, we're always welcoming to new editors so feel free. You might want to look at our Getting Started page for some tips on how to begin, then play in our Sandbox for a while to practice. If you need any help or advice, please ask one of our mentors. Enjoy! –Rpeh^{•T•C•E•} 10:32, 4 February 2008 (EST)

Artifacts Images

I saw your comment on the task list. If you can't get an image, add a {{NeedsImage}} tag instead. Not everybody can get images and not everybody enjoys cleaning them up so there's no problem in just putting that tag on to point out that it still needs doing. Have fun with the articles! –Rpeh^{•T•C•E•} 08:12, 22 February 2008 (EST)

Thanks

Hi, Game Lord! I just wanted to say thanks for all the hard work you've been putting into the Artifacts pages, and in particular for picking up so quickly on some of the obscure details of how those pages need to be done ;) There is a lot of formatting and wiki-coding hidden in those pages, so you're really getting a crash course in some pretty advanced aspects of wiki-editing. Diving in at the deep end, trying to figure things out as you go, and testing to see what happens is one of the best ways to learn (and nobody minds if there are a few missteps along the way as you learn from your mistakes!) Keep up the good work :) --Nephele^Talk 16:37, 22 February 2008 (EST)

No problem :) I'm happy to offer my services and help out as much as I can. I'm hoping to add more artifacts within the next few days, although my work is slightly hindered by school and work.

Signature

Hi there. A small request - it looks like there's a </sup> tag missing from your signature. Could you add it in as it's causing the text on any page you sign to be superscript thereafter! Thanks. –Rpeh^{•T•C•E•} 09:27, 24 February 2008 (EST)

Ah, yes, sorry about that. Fixed now. - Game Lord^{Talk|Contribs}

Grammar

Listed below are some suggestions for improving you A Fishy Deal fan fiction.

• American English is preferred on this wiki, so you should use American spellings. However, if it's how you prefer to write it, then use your own preferred variant of English.
• Unless you're using a semicolon, please use "and."

Ex: "He stops; then he looks around," or "He stops, and then he looks around."

• Use commas properly.

Wrong: "The law stated that all fish, and animals…" (Comma is unnecessary here.)

Right: "The law stated that all fish and animals…"

• This use dialogue correctly.

Wrong: “Yes, my lord?” He enquired. (You shouldn’t capitalize "he.")

Right: “Yes, my lord?” he enquired.

Taken into account and edited accordingly. Thanks Michaeldsuarez. When writing things on my pc (I write in using Word then copy and paste) I often don't see those small mistakes. I only have a spelling check, not a grammer check. Although I proof-read it afterwards of course, I'm not able to notice all the mistakes, which is why I'm happy when users like you post messages like the above. So thanks again. - Game Lord^{Talk|Contribs}

You're welcome. I'm happy to help. Michaeldsuarez (talk· contribs· email) 19:03, 25 February 2008 (EST)
