 * @Procyon: Thanks for the welcome message Procyon, I'm glad to be a member of this community! I was just wondering, is there an IRC channel for this wiki? If so, I'll join it! Regards,  George Edward C –  Talk  –  Contributions  18:02, 4 December 2014 (UTC)


 * I wish I could tell you that there was, but we abandoned it several years back due to lack of use. If enough interest is expressed, we can look into resurrecting it.  We have some extremely loyal members, but we haven't been so successful at building a sense of community, thus the lack of activity on IRC that prompted us to remove it (or rather, not reestablish it upon a change to new servers).  In the mean time, most cross-site communication tends to occur in the Staff lounge.  We're always glad to have another wiki expert on the site.  Nice job with the new page.  Did you use the pre-built template buttons or did you copy/paste from another page?   Pro  cyon  18:48, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I really just looked at the templates used on other pages and built it based on that. This wiki really needs some more help, I see ;) I'm going to look towards some existing guides for some sense of MOS, but I think I'll be fine :) I'll take a look at that Staff lounge link too! (On an additional note, why do I have to press the preview button before saving? Is there a way to disable this?)  George Edward C –  Talk  –  Contributions  18:54, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
 * To be honest, we get so many novice wiki users who would make a minor edit, save the page, look at it, make another small edit, save the page, look at it... on and on and they'd fill up the recent history logs with minor edits, and it made things very hard for our admins to manage. So we enforced a "Show Preview" policy.  You can actually get around the requirement by turning off JavaScript, but I leave it on as a force of habit.  I did some clean up to your recent Table of Contents, feel free to rearrange things if you don't like the results.  We have two links that we require, the Getting Started page and the Walkthrough page, every guide needs them for navigation purposes.  Also, we try to avoid using sub-sub-directories unless it's absolutely unavoidable (name conflicts, etc.), but it's not a hard-and-fast rule.  Just a preference.
