Hey! Welcome to my talk page. If you have anything to tell me or ask me about, this would be the right place to do so! Just leave a comment below, and I'll reply on your talk page as soon as I can.

By the way, if you were directed here by a Welcome Template I left on your page, I'd like you to know that I don't just leave them on talk pages; I look at what you've done so far, and try my best to comment on it when I can. I am also sincere in that I will be more than happy to answer any of your questions. Please, don't hesitate to ask if you need anything!

Here are some general tips, in case you're interested:

Example: Hey there! :Hi. ::How are you? :::Fine, and you? ::::I'm good, thanks for asking!
 * Signing a page with four tildes ( ~ ) will leave your signature, which you can change at any time on your Preferences page, as well as the exact time you made the edit.
 * Use this when signing your comments on talk pages, like this one!
 * Don't use this when you're editing an article.
 * Using a colon will indent things put behind it.

This would result in...

Hey there!
 * Hi.
 * How are you?
 * Fine, and you?
 * I'm good, thanks for asking!

You can keep adding colons to your heart's content! Generally, you use these to signify that the comment is meant to be in reply to another. If you're replying to a reply, just add one colon to however many the above reply had.
 * Want to speak instantly with other members of the Left 4 Dead Wiki? Activate the shout box!  In the Community box in the sidebar, click on Widgets.  This will open a list of widgets you can add.  Look for Shout Box and click the green plus sign next to it.  This will add that widget onto the sidebar.  Of course, you can always add any of the other widgets, and move them around as much as you'd like.  Take a look around at what's there, add what you'd think will come in most handy!
 * I, myself, have Community, Recently edited by, Shout box, Bookmarks, and Help needed.

If you have any other questions on how to do something, this would be a great place to leave them! Thanks for stopping by. - §tigma-231 ♠  o  ƒ  gr  eed { τalk }{¢ont }

Updates
You archived :D and now I get the first section. No more intense scrolling down. Okay, so I finally got to work (the reason it took so long is I couldn't upload images for some reason for the past few days).

Here's links to everything I made:


 * Left 4 Dead Wiki
 * Left 4 Dead Wiki:Featured articles
 * Left 4 Dead Wiki:Featured articles/Queue


 * Categories
 * Category:Featured articles


 * Templates
 * featured
 * nominated
 * FAfooter


 * Voting templates
 * support
 * oppose
 * neutral
 * comment

Now I'll run through it quickly:


 * Left 4 Dead Wiki
 * Left 4 Dead Wiki:Featured articles: this is the page for featured article nomination and criteria
 * Left 4 Dead Wiki:Featured articles/Queue: this is where article that have yet to be shown on the main page are listed


 * Categories
 * Category:Featured articles: the category for featured articles and everything related


 * Templates
 * featured: this places an icon in the top right to indicate an article is featured
 * nominated: this is a message box for the top of an article to show that it has been nominated, and gives a link to vote on it
 * FAfooter: this is for the bottom of the Featured article template that gives links to other featured articles and to vote on featured articles


 * Voting templates: for these, it would be better to just show them
 * support:
 * oppose:
 * neutral:
 * comment:

The voting templates can be used for voting on requests for adminship and nominated featured articles, so instead of having to read comments, you can just glance at the colors of the icon and quickly see what the result is probably going to be.

This is pretty much just featured article work, as I haven't gotten to working on the requests for adminship page yet. But for now, what do you think? — Baltro [  talk  ·  edits  ] 21:12, 25 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Oh, by the way, I'm going to nominate Achievements for featured article status, since it's in very nice condition, and it would be nice to have one nomination on the page to give an example. :) — Baltro [  talk  ·  edits  ] 21:15, 25 August 2009 (UTC)


 * I nominated it and used a sample vote. :) Could you vote on the nomination as well? I'm very glad you like the work I did. It didn't really take too long, just like an hour today. But it's all worth it. Oh, and one thing I would like your help with is if you could change MediaWiki:Sitenotice to include a notice about featured article nominations, with a link to the page, so users know where to go. Much obliged. :D — Baltro [  talk  ·  edits  ] 21:23, 25 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Thank you very much. I forgot about the non-breaking line rule. Instead of numbering the votes like you changed it to, we could just use colons, for something like this:


 * If it uses colons, then using colons for comments on votes is easier, and won't break the number cycle. What do you think? — Baltro [  talk  ·  edits  ] 21:35, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
