Templates...
To use a page in your userspace like a template, just include the "User:" prefix on it, like this:. There's no need to put those in the Template: namespace. &mdash;Dr Ishmael 19:06, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, I didn't realize you could do that. I'm not very good at wiki editing... but thank you for telling me, I'll move them right away.  Renai Mu 19:10, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Always happy to help. :) And instead of re-creating the pages, you can just go to the Template: ones you made and click the "move" tab at the top to move them into your userspace.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 19:17, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Screenshots
When you upload a screenshot, please be sure to select the proper option in the "Licensing:" drop-down menu - "This image is a screenshot from the game." It automatically places the  template on the uploaded image, so it doesn't have to be added manually like I just did on Image:Character-Aburai_Negai.gif. &mdash;Dr Ishmael 14:20, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry. =/  I'm not trying to cause work for you guys, I swear.  [[Image:Renai Mu icon.jpg]]Renai Mu [[Image:Renai Mu icon.jpg]] 15:08, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
 * That's okay, it's our job to watch out for and take care of stuff like that. ^_^ And now I'm going to have to point you to GW:SIGN - your signature is too big.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 15:52, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
 * The image itself is too big, or the text? -Renai Mu, Mistress of Stupid Mistakes
 * Never mind, I found it. [[Image:Renai Mu icon.jpg|19px]]Renai Mu [[Image:Renai Mu icon.jpg|19px]] 15:59, 12 August 2008 (UTC)


 * That looks fine, thanks again! I'm thinking we need to link our policies a bit more prominently - a lot of new users commit the same mistakes, simply due to ignorance.  Since you are still a sort-of new user, do you have any suggestions as to where we could link the policies that you'd notice them?  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 05:31, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I agree that the signature policies at least are a bit difficult to find- the image properties are fairly easy if you take even a little bit of effort in my opinion, I just took a bit of an absence from Guild Wars so when I came back I completely forgot to do anything helpful. (I'm so smart :D)  The signature policies took me forever to find, because they wouldn't come up in the search.  It could be helpful to put them in the Quick Access links; I know they're not really GW-related so I guess they don't fit there as well as they could, but it makes sense to me if you needed to look something up quickly it might be there.
 * If not there, it might make sense to put them in your preferences 'cause that's where I started looking for help originally, so people should be able to find them pretty easily. :) [[Image:Renai Mu icon.jpg|19px]]Renai Mu  13:42, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
 * (Reset indent) GW:SIGN says you can only have 1 image in your signature :( --Shadowcrest  05:33, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh lawdy. Haha, I guess I didn't read it thoroughly enough to notice that.  Thanks for letting me know. On an unrelated note, your signature font is really pretty! [[Image:Renai Mu icon.jpg|19px]]Renai Mu  13:42, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

RE Help? ^^;
Original message on User talk:Dr ishmael

So I know this isn't your problem at all, but I dunno who else I can ask about this, so... yay me causing more problems for you, right? For some reason all of the hide/show boxes on my userpage are just... not working now, and I have no idea why because I didn't change anything. Did Wikia do an update and get rid of those, or something? If there's someone else I should bother about this, I'm really sorry for wasting your time. Sorry ^^; Renai Mu  14:08, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Strange - I see them, what browser/version are you using? Random Time  14:30, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
 * The latest version of Firefox. They were working fine yesterday, but I've had problems before where they'd stop loading for a little bit and then would work fine twenty minutes later, but a full day is new. &mdash;The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:Renai Mu (contribs) 09:52, 16 August 2008.
 * What skin are you using? &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 16:17, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
 * PitchDark 3.0.2 [[Image:Renai Mu icon.jpg|19px]]Renai Mu  16:48, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I mean on the wiki. >.> &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 16:21, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
 * >> Whoops. Sapphire theme.  ^^; [[Image:Renai Mu icon.jpg|19px]]Renai Mu  16:48, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I think it should be fixed now - you may have to clear your browser's cache before you'll see it, though. &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 16:43, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
 * :D It works now.  Thank you!  [[Image:Renai Mu icon.jpg|19px]]Renai Mu  16:48, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

coding
I can only recommend spoj.sphere.pl ; there appears to be something similar at valladolid, and then there's topcoder, but SPOJ is what I've been using to distract myself and try new programming languages on. If you need any kind of feedback or exchange on progress or tips how to best approach a certain problem, I'd be happy to do that.

For my bot tasks I usually use AWB, which merely requires knowledge of regular expressions, and sometimes not even that; and to find pages to work on, I often use awk to parse the current pages dump. More info on coding the wiki is at Forum:Coding. --◄mendel► 12:37, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
 * This will keep me occupied for a while... :3 I've been playing with it all day today and I forgot to actually thank you for giving me the links, haha.  Thank you so much!  [[Image:Renai Mu icon.jpg|19px]]Renai Mu  07:51, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm happy to hear that. :) --◄mendel► 06:43, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
