User talk:Echo1110674

Hi there!
Welcome to our Fallout wiki, and thank you for your contributions! There's a lot to do around here, so I hope you'll stay with us and make many more improvements.


 * Recent changes is a great first stop, because you can see what other people are editing right this minute, and where you can help.


 * If you haven't already, create a user page about yourself! If you do, we'll be able to know you better as a member of our community.


 * Questions? You can ask in the Forum or on the "discussion" page associated with each article, or post a message on my talk page!


 * Need help? The Help page has an outline of the site, and pages to help you learn how to edit. See the Vault's Policy page for general guidelines and code of conduct.

I'm really happy to have you here, and look forward to working with you!

Heh
And you'd be right Echo, it is a macro, however I really do appreciate having you here. I've seen your edits and I'm glad we've got a new editor with an understanding of grammar. There's a metric ton of over capitalization and an infinite number of poorly worded sentences out there. ;) AshRandom (Talk) 18:06, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the comment. It's kind of ironic that I'm editing English grammar errrors, while it's not even my native language. :)


 * I know what you're talking about, I'm a second generation American, my parents speak English like they're a bunch of college professors. There is a trend though, no matter what the language, native speakers are almost always the sloppiest and the most influenced by slang. Foreign speakers on the other hand often end up feeling insecure about the language and thus work harder at it, or just simply started out being classically trained, so they end up knowing the language better than those who were born into it. Not to mention the obvious difference between learning the majority of your word definitions from context vs schooling. [[Image:Ash_Nuke.jpg]] AshRandom (Talk) 21:45, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

You're right about that. If you grow up and learn to speak a language you use your 'feeling' about what's correct and what's not. Grammar doesn't really matters. Which is why you can still fail at an exam in your own language, also maybe because you're over-confident that you can do it without studying because well, you've been speaking it all your life.

Edits
(See: Help:The_Vault) "When formatting Vault articles the proper style is similar to that of a newspaper article. Use a "pyramid" format. Start with a single descriptive sentence that sites the article's title (in bold). Follow this title sentence with the table of contents. Use the code " __T OC__" (no quotes). Then proceed immediately with the first ==Header== of the article." AshRandom (Talk) 09:35, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

Who placed this...macro thing and why?
 * thought I saw you remove a TOC somewhere, then again, I might have clicked the wrong name. *Shrug*. It's just help info nothing to worry about [[Image:Ash_Nuke.jpg]] AshRandom (Talk) 09:41, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

Oh, ok. I might have removed a TOC somewhere, perhaps one of the Chinese weapons. I thought it was unimportant, but I guess I've made a mistake. :(
 * It's no big deal, all your other edits have been excellent contributions, just trying to keep you out of trouble ;) [[Image:Ash_Nuke.jpg]] AshRandom (Talk) 15:21, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

Note: for shorter articles that fit on one screen, there's obviously no point in forcing the TOC to pop up. AshRandom (Talk) 16:31, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, I'll try not to mess up anymore articles in the future.

Janitorial matters
All pages with a cleanup tag are added to Category:Cleanup required. -- Porter21 (talk) 09:34, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
