Punctuation

Hi! Please make sure that, when you create page titles and/or add text that you've copy-pasted from a Word document, you change the punctuation, such as apostrophes and quotation marks, from Word to wiki text. They are not the same. Thanks! Shambala108 ☎ 03:44, October 21, 2015 (UTC)

With which article did this happen? I'd like to know to help avoid future errors. I use Notepad almost exclusively for copy and paste, so I don't see how that would happen. Thanks. ----Ebyabe (talk) 14:06, October 21, 2015 (UTC)

My apologies. I meant to get back to you on this but I had taken a break from the wiki and then forgot about it. The thing is, I made a huge mistake. I assumed that when you created the pages Carrie O'Grady and Beyond Osterling's Legacy you copy/pasted from some kind of word document. It didn't even occur to me that you probably created the page from an existing link (I should know better because I know you're using the wanted pages list). So my apologies for confusing you and for calling you out on something you didn't do. Shambala108 ☎ 03:31, November 4, 2015 (UTC)

Re:Thanks!

Ay, no problem! Good luck with bringing articles to life. Oh, and could you make sure to add Template:Character stub to your shorter articles? Thanks. OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 20:27, October 27, 2015 (UTC)

Hey, I appreciate you trying to clean up the edits made by User:SOTO's bot, but it's a big job and I'm just going to leave a message on his talk page to have him fix the edits. Thanks! Shambala108 ☎ 03:00, October 30, 2015 (UTC)

Oh, I'm sorry! I wish I had seen the message yesterday. Glad you enjoyed the work, though! I quite like repetitive work sometimes too, especially with music. Happy Halloween! :D
(Next time just come to me, unless you really want to do it. It would have taken me just a few minutes by bot.)

EDAs or STs

Hi! I'm curious why you felt the need to create Eleanor Grainger, an ST character, when you are purportedly working on the EDAs. The article is missing a lot of details and, frankly, looks like you just got the information from the DW Reference Guide instead of actually reading the stories. (I suggest this because earlier you had posted that Edward has a sister named Peggy, which you could not have gotten from reading the stories. Also, in the past, I had to drastically change other ST character pages you created because they were practically copied from DWRG.) It's better not to create pages for characters/locations/etc if you haven't actually read the stories. You should probably stick to the EDAs and ignore any characters I redlink for the STs, which I will get to eventually. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎ 14:24, November 1, 2015 (UTC)

I also am working on the redlinks. If it appears on the list and has more then three article links, then I attempt to create it. I am beginning to consider taking a break from the site. After editting here for almost ten years, it is beginning to feel like my efforts here are not being appreciated. Since Wikias are volunteer sites, it is important to encourage contributors as much as possible. I will say nothing further, as we are supposed to keep discussions on talk pages polite. Thank you. ----Ebyabe (talk) 16:48, November 1, 2015 (UTC)

You should come back to Thread:169815 to give it more attention again. I think that was a great idea for a category you had.
