 * I know you're doing it manually, but would you mind waiting for the bots to do it? Less RC spam that way, since bot edits are hidden. &mdash;[[Image:MaySig.png]] Warw/Wick 20:35, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Double redirects
Hi Hellbringer, you have 4 of your sig images on Special:DoubleRedirects. You might want to fix that. mendel 23:16, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Sig Test
--t a l <font face="vivaldi" size="3">k 00:00, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
 * That sig disrupts the normal spacing between lines of text. If that was allowed, everybody'd be doing it. --mendel 00:06, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Whole reason of sig test. Now I'm going to make it smaller :D. --[[Image:Hellbringer newer sig.jpg]]<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="red">t <font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="yellow">a <font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="green">l <font face="vivaldi" size="3">k 00:08, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Tip: copy your sig code to a sandbox (or make a new article, you don't have to save and actually create it) and use Preview to play with it until it looks ok, then copy it into preferences. --mendel 00:23, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Okay. Well now it doesn't disrupt the normal spacing anymore :D. --[[Image:Hellbringer newer sig.jpg]]<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="red">t <font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="yellow">a <font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="green">l <font face="vivaldi" size="3">k 00:24, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Its also very hard to read. Also, you shouldn't need to set the font face in every font tag. You're wasting space. &mdash;<font color=#ff44aa>♥ Jedi ♥ Rogue ♥ 00:25, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I am surprised, the letters are big but line spacing is not affected - so I was wrong above to think that it would. My apologies. --mendel 00:31, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Jedi you got a suggestion on how i can keep the font face staying the same instead of making a new tag for each. --[[Image:Hellbringer newer sig.jpg]]<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="red">t <font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="yellow">a <font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="green">l <font face="vivaldi" size="3">k 00:34, 7 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I do. Witness the power of nested tags. See this: <font face=Courier size=3> t a  l k makes <font face=Courier size=3> t  a  l k . (I don't have Vivaldi). --mendel 00:45, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks Mendel. --[[Image:Hellbringer newer sig.jpg]]<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="red">t <font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="yellow">a <font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="green">l <font face="vivaldi" size="3">k 00:47, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

 * Nvm x2. Still says check HTML tags. --[[Image:Hellbringer newer sig.jpg]]<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="red">t <font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="yellow">a <font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="green">l <font face="vivaldi" size="3">k 00:53, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

 balks, but not at the font tags. Where's the code that draws this nice frame? --mendel 01:00, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I don't know. --[[Image:Hellbringer newer sig.jpg]]<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="red">t <font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="yellow">a <font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="green">l <font face="vivaldi" size="3">k 01:01, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
 * The User:Hellbringer/Templates/Talkpage, it is broken. It needs a footer at the bottom of this page to close it, and of course that will be overwritten by new comments. As far as you sig goes, why don't you make an image of the whole thing? Your signature will look a whole lot cleaner in edit view then, too. --mendel 01:07, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Mendel since you are really good at HTML, I allow you to edit that. --[[Image:Hellbringer newer sig.jpg]]<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="red">t <font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="yellow">a <font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="green">l <font face="vivaldi" size="3">k 01:10, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

I'd like to advocate against the use of the FONT tag. It's a deprecated HTML standard, and I'd like to encourage people to use SPAN instead. -User:PanSola (talk to the ) 05:05, 7 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks, Hellbringer, but that won't help (much) if you want to keep the large frame. You need a place to put the "frame ends here" code on the page, and that is difficult to do on a talk page because new content is always added at the bottom if you use the + tab to do so.
 * span style="color:green;" is longer than font color=green - not good for a sig that's already on the long side. It's really best to image the rest, the sig looks awful on my PC because the font faces are mixed. --mendel 11:36, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Stubs
What I like to do when I see a stub is think about where the info could go. If the article is very short, it's a bad encyclopedic article (I know, we're not wikipedia, but still...). --- For example, Daniel Dociu, which you unstubbed, would fit the arenanet article well: most Anet staff pages are almost orphaned and contain little info, so the staff info could be moved to a more extensive staff list on the Anet article, with redirects from the staff names to the Anet article. Those staff member pages that have more info (Ms Gray comes to mind) can then be linked from the ANet staff list. The Anet article is then much more useful. --- Another example is the 2006 holiday fun tournament (which I stubbed and you unstubbed). If there is no more info on that forthcoming (and it is safe to say that 2 years later there won't, I agree with you there), maybe we should make a list of past tournaments and move the info there (with a redirect from the original article if there are links). Again, that list would then be more useful than a collection of tiny articles ever can be.

The stub template is an opportunity to think: what does this article need? because whoever placed the stub felt that more thought is needed. By removing the stubs (and not thinking) you are also removing these opportunities to make GuildWiki better. Pretty much the same goes for the lists on Special - if all you do is somehow get pages off there without thinking, you're not doing the job right. --mendel 13:49, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
