[[User:Drhaggis|Dr Haggis]], I have to tell you, I love what you've done with the [[Strong Bad Email By Name of Sender]] page. The table of contents, lining up the tables, it just looks so great. I really appreciate it when someone with actual 'coding' expertice comes along and fixes my base pages. If you want to eventually do the same to the [[Strong Bad Email By Place|place]] page, be my guest. Keep up the good work.

Hey, if you're up for a challenge of a page, go to 'preferences' (Top right, between talk and watchlist), then click on the [[HRWiki:User preferences help]] link. you can click on this one too, but it's good to be in the right place so you know what the link asks for...

Could you kindly explain what some of your page edit comments mean? I like how concise they are and I think I'd like to start using them myself. Some are obvious, like "+cat", but what does "+wiki" mean? Does that mean the page is new? Or does it mean you've wikified it by adding links? I just used it to mean the latter, but I'm now having second thoughts that it may mean the former. Thanks in advance for setting me straight. (Hm. Now that I'm asking you this, I've just looked back through your past 1,000 edits and it seems you aren't using this convention anymore, preferring "add category" to the simple "+cat". I'd still like to know what "+wiki" meant, though. I remember seeing it a lot early on.) --[[User:JoeyDay|JoeyDay]] 23:27, 22 Nov 2004 (MST)

:No problem. Most of my comments should be obvious, but sometimes brevity can conflict with communication. "+wiki" should be synonymous with "wikification" or "wikify". It mean adding links, some minor formatting, perhaps adding image tags to get a new article or a stub up to the most basic of standards. I got away from the "+cat" shorthand because I was worried about people understanding what I was doing. Some people write essays in their comment box, most leave it blank, which is frustrating and time consuming. - [[User:Drhaggis|[[User:Drhaggis|Dr Haggis]]]] 14:32, 23 Nov 2004 (MST)

Whats Up Doc? Thunderbird here again, with a special task for a few of my fellow users. On the [[Sketchbook]] page, in the [[Sketchbook#In The Museum|Museum]] section of that page, the last picture is a bunch of rejected halloween costume ideas. The caption gives the challenge '10 bucks to anyone who can identify them all'. So what I propose is to identify them all. I've already set up a basic 'top left to bottom right' type list under the 'Description' section, with the two most obvious costumes in it. But can we get the other costumes, and win ourselves $10? Any costumes you know would be a help. Thanks. [[User:Thunderbird L17|''<small><tt>[[User:Thunderbird L17|<font color=gold>⇔Thunderbird⇔</font>]]</tt></small>'']] 02:13, 2 Jan 2005 (MST)

Since you do most of the formatting ect. around here, I figured I'd come to you with this question. What should I do with the [[Floppy Disk Container]] and [[Halloween Costumes]]? They're both in the top five for large pages! Halloween costumes I figure I could seperate into seperate pages per-toon, what do you think of that? And what about Floppy Disk Container? Two or three more floppies, and it could become the largest page on the site! Thanks for your input.

==Thanks==

That's true, sorting by character WOULD probably be easier to find, and I kind of like the idea too, being able to compare the costumes per-character easily. But then again it would mean more pages, ESPECIALLY if characters such as [[The Goblin]], [[Homsar]], and even [[Stinkoman]] get their own pages for only a few costumes. Would grouping them into two or three characters a page be a good idea, or should each character be seperate? I really think that SOMETHING should be done however, especially before the next toon.

Hey Doc, I just wanted to express my appreciation to you for nominating me for Sysop. I would really appreaciate the honor, and responsibility, of being Sysop'd. ''<tt>[[User:Thunderbird L17|<font color=gold>⇔Honoredbird⇔</font>]]</tt>'' 03:14, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I agree with you on Floppy Disk Container though, I guess we could just leave it for a few more floppies. What about maybe cutting it into 25 or so disk blocks, and just link from the main floppy page to something like 'Page One' and 'Page Two'? I really like the explanations the way they are though, I REALLY don't want to shorten (m)any of them.
