What can autoconfirmed users do? Shoop 13:51, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Edit pages that are semi-protected; ie. those that anonymous or newly-registered users cannot. Also, please sign your posts on talk pages properly. Stop using the unsigned template. Just forget about it. Use four tildes in place of it.  14:23, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

just had a question
hey moydow, just had a question. i just clicked that signature button thing... and i dont think it really does anything. all i c on my page r a few wierd symbols, and is this the normal way im supposed to talk to someone? i just joined yesterday so im not that experienced.

i was also wondering how do u edit pages? like on the maplestory game there was a builds and formulas page and i just left a message asking someone to split it into 2 seperate pages. they did what i asked but id like to know how i would do that in the future. Last thing, how do u make those content bars with all the quick links to the different parts of the screen? thank you --David11563 18:14, 15 August 2010 (UTC)
 * The signature button creates four tildes, which automatically adds your username and the time you saved the page at, once you click 'Save page'. This is the page on which you talk to another user, but please try to use correct sentence form, grammar, and spelling. Not every user understands text-message shorthand (I have only limited knowledge of it myself). If you have notes regarding editing the page, click the 'Discussion' link in the Toolbox to the right, and leave your message there. Don't put it on the actual page. To edit the page, click the 'Edit' tab at the top of the page, or to the right of the section headings. Please try to make use of 'Show preview' to make as few edits as possible, and make sure what you're doing is working out. Tables of Content appear automatically when a page has more than three sections. Also, when starting a new page, begin by clicking 'Guide page' (just above the editing box). This adds the Header Nav and Footer Nav that must appear on every guide page. Look at the Guide, and that should answer any more questions you have in detail, but I can help if you find something difficult. 19:34, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

me again... another question about editing...
Id like to do something with the skill section for big bang in maplestory. If you've visited the skill section of the normal maplestory you'll notice that its broken up into several different pages based on the different jobs, if like to do the same thing to the big bang skill list. The big bang skill page has reached a critical mass of 900 kb... its a fkin big page!

Id like to break it down like the other skill page, and as i said before im new here, and im not really sure how i would do that.

I know i have to add another page and then copy paste the info in the seperate pages but i cnat manage to start that process. I look at the top of the edit page and i have no idea how to edit the links... its a real puzzle to me... if you could give me some info, or a guide page, or simply do it urself, id appreciate it. Thanks for reading, --David11563 19:34, 15 August 2010 (UTC)
 * A few other things first: only sign posts at the end of your message. At the end, leave a space, and click the signature button. Don't go to a new line, or put several spaces in order to push the signature to the right of the page, since it clutters the page. Second, page titles must use sentence case except in the case of proper nouns (places, chapter names as they appear in-game, etc). Now, I've never played MapleStory, and I've never read the MapleStory guide much, except when I need to revert vandalism or fix minor errors other users have made. To split via copy-paste, open the page that contains the info, then open the page you want to create in a new tab. Search for it, then click 'Create this page' on the search result screen. Other than that, the best I can do for you is to advise you to ask someone who is more familiar with MapleStory; two particularly well-versed users would be Imjon or Zienth, but make sure to leave the messages on their user talk pages. You may also get information about making edits from the Guide. Sorry I can't be of more help. 20:07, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

before u go editing anything on that maplestory page!
just wanted to let you know, i have the bottom link (the link to previous and next page at the bottom of the screen) set up so that u can access all of the sub section pages

at the moment im making a bunch of other pages (sub sections) that will replace the big bang skills page. So far im done with the resistance... ill get through all of them, then ill need some help with the shortcut at the top of the page, thanks for ur time --David11563 19:55, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

still editing
well im still editing... this is borring...

So far ive did resistance, legends, cygnus, pirates, thieves, and bowmen, still have to magicians and warriors

once again, they are all accessed through (big bang)>(skills)>then at the bottom of the builds page theres a link to "previous page" that will take u to the resistance.

At the bottom of the resistance previous page button it will take u to legends, and so on.

Please help me out on the link that goes at the top of the page, that was a real pain doing all that. --David11563 20:59, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

finished editing
i'm not sure who separated the big bang skills into the 4 different sections, but if it was you then thank you. I finished dividing up the skills from the original page into the four sections so that first page is now unnecessary. I haven't put up a nav. bar at the top of the page (still don't know how), and the nav bar at the bottom of the page is incorrect (had to put one up to move from page to page easier) so that still needs work... talk to you later --David11563 20:51, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

P.S. - I put the signature right after the writing :)
