no edit summary
I just got the notification today. After the trouble logging on, I was rather surprised.
: Oh. I was trying to log in with the "quick login" (pair of boxes, top right of diii.net's main page), except that that's for the forums. Which are separate from the wiki. As the wiki's main page says. <br>
:Now I feel stupid :S
And, uh, as you may have noticed, I tend to talk alot. >.> <br>
(Edit: Oh poo. I just realized that "History" means that ''every single change'' made is saved. <br>
Which I guess is a good thing, but it means I'll have to be a '''lot''' less trigger-happy with the 'Edit' button. <br>
(I'm used to forums where edits aren't tracked if it's the last post...)) --[[User:Sing in Silence|Sing in Silence]] 03:46, 2 April 2009 (CEST)
:Hello again! I am really positively surprised at your enthusiasm! Every single little thing you ever did in a wiki is saved, even deletions! Nothing is ever (EVER) truly gone unless there are server problems! I'm very glad you fixed that talk help page typo, everyone else must have just missed that during the last 9 or so months it has been there! =) Never hesitate to change such a thing, rather change to what you think it should be, and leave a question on the talk page of the article, if you're not sure. =)
 
::Well, I'm betting that no one else here really needed to look there any time recently :P --[[User:Sing in Silence|Sing in Silence]] 18:51, 2 April 2009 (CEST)
:As for talk pages, it custom to date stamp every single edit you make, so even smaller clarifications etc, just use the ":" to indent it a bit, and stamp it. It's good for me, so I can see easier when you wrote what, and follow your line of thought! Also, keep each discussion under each headline, so unless you have a new topic to discuss, we continue on the old headline ;) This is YOUR talk page, so you're obviously the master, and can decide how to do it, and avoid stamping your posts, or anything you like, but I'm just telling you what's custom, and how to do on other pages =)
 
::Got it (I think), thank you =) --[[User:Sing in Silence|Sing in Silence]] 18:51, 2 April 2009 (CEST)
:It's really nice to hear you compliment the wiki. Most of the work comes from Flux and Elly, who have spent hundred of hundreds of hours to transfer all the many pages they had in normal html into the wiki. After that, lots of people have pitched in, and now you are one of them! =)
 
::Hey, I've benefited from it, and I believe that quality deserves recognition. :) --[[User:Sing in Silence|Sing in Silence]] 18:51, 2 April 2009 (CEST)
:Anyway, I'm really happy you decided to help out in the wiki, do you have an idea what you want to do next, or can I give you some advice? --[[User:Leord|Leord]] 13:37, 2 April 2009 (CEST)
 
::No idea, really. I'm far from an expert on any of the Diablos. Most of my experience is with the Median (mod) series, if you know of it.
::(I've worked / am working on a compilation of [http://modsbylaz.14.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=7291 Less Frequently Asked Questions] (and answers), but aside from the mechanics, the stuff there's mod-specific,) So I don't really know what I can add. Snotspill and the oversight in the Ethereal articles I just noticed. <br>
::So by all means, advice would be welcome :p --[[User:Sing in Silence|Sing in Silence]] 18:51, 2 April 2009 (CEST)
:PS! The link you put on my talk page leads to the Diablo 3 talk page, of which you don't have one ;) --[[User:Leord|Leord]] 13:38, 2 April 2009 (CEST)
 
::Aww nertz. <br>
::Note to self: when editing a copy-pasted link, make sure that it actually works :P
 
 
::Topical response + timestamps. That good? Seems a bit excessive to me, but idk.
