::::Just because a guide did not work on one wiki, does not mean it won't work on another. I think; once I've finished it, we should give it a good, and linked it to the welcome template, and you idea, which seems fantastic, could be used if Users choose not to read the guide or the MOS. Can you upload a screenshot of one of these please and post it here or on my talk page? Just to see what it would look like on a User's talk page?

I like Sulphur's idea. Templates would be very helpful in guiding new users. I think you need to make the guide a bit more simple. No one wants to read pages upon pages of instructions. It's a bit off putting. Try to condense topics and include "read more" options so you can stifle blocks of text out.----[[User:Skittles the hog|Skittles the hog]]--<small>[[User talk:Skittles the hog|Talk]]</small> 15:17, May 7, 2011 (UTC) | |||
