Welcome to the wiki

Welcome to the Urban Dead wiki site. If you have any hiccups getting going, our help section should be of some use; or if you need anything in particular, feel free to ask me on my talk page. You might also be interested in the Suggestions section if you're keen on sharing your ideas; and it's a good idea to keep an eye on the admin pages in case you find yourself needing any of the admin services such as deletions or page moves.

Pages

When creating new pages about yourself, or that relate to yourself, such as User:Naozi create them in your own userspace. A sysop will User:Naozi to User:Fawkes/Naozi now.--Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 00:09, 13 August 2010 (BST)

...what? Fawkes 00:10, 13 August 2010 (BST)

One of the great things about the wiki is that every user can have his or her own user page! These pages are located in the User: namespace — in other words, they all begin with "User:" (yours is User:Fawkes). The appropriate place to write about yourself or your characters is on your user page, or a subpage of that page (e.g., User:Fawkes/Your Character's Name).
Do you understand now? There is mainspace and userspace. Mainspace is pretty much the entire wiki. Userspace are all of the users of the wiki. You are User:Fawkes. Any character pages you make such as Naozi should be in your userspace, not the mainspace. When creating a subpage like Naozi, it should be User:Fawkes/Naozi. Is it clear? Only trying to help. --Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 00:16, 13 August 2010 (BST)

Naozi is not me. He's a different person.

...I'm not supposed to touch other people's user pages, am I? Fawkes 00:19, 13 August 2010 (BST)

In any case, I removed my edit. Fawkes 00:20, 13 August 2010 (BST)

Whoops, I thought you created that page. But yeah, never edit other userpages. That can lead to vandal warnings, but since this is just a mistake, there is no need to worry now it's been cleared up.--Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 00:23, 13 August 2010 (BST)

Thanks. Sorry about that. Won't happen again. Fawkes 00:24, 13 August 2010 (BST)

It's fine, really. Also, when replying to others, such as myself, learn to indent. When you want to reply to someone put the ":" symbol in front of your sentence. With every reoccurring reply put an extra ":". Now if you want to reply to me, do this ":: your reply "--Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 00:30, 13 August 2010 (BST)
