User talk:Auri

Welcome

Hi Auri! I'm just dropping by to welcome you to UDWiki on behalf of Project Welcome! If you have any questions or need any help, you can reach me anytime at my talk page. Have a great day! Bob Moncrief ^EBD•W! 16:26, 24 January 2020 (UTC)

Thanks! --Auri (talk) 02:41, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

Good tip

STEAL CODE EVERYWHERE! - No, really. If you see something you like, steal it. Wiki code is awful. -- 23:31, 25 January 2020 (UTC)

I don't approve of vandals, especially if one user has been blocked for vandalizing other peoples' user pages. --Auri (talk) 02:40, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

One more quick tip, from one copy-editor to another — I encourage you to look into differences between US and UK spelling. I've noticed some of the "corrections" you've made have just been switching UK spelling standard words to US ones ("specialise" to "specialize" and the like). Both standards are acceptable on the wiki, and as Urban Dead is based in the UK, British spellings are specifically accepted. Bob Moncrief ^EBD•W! 02:31, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Oh no, I meant both are acceptable! So "correcting" US to the UK is just as pointless as "correcting" UK to US on here. Bob Moncrief ^EBD•W! 02:42, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Editing group pages

Hi Auri! Just wanted to let you know that it's generally not a good idea to edit the group pages for a group you're not in, and don't have permission from that group. I rolled back your edits to Malton Medical Staff/Staff Instructions — are you an MMS member? If so, let me know and I can reimplement the edits. Cheers!

I'd encourage you to work on articles that cover buildings, suburbs, strategies, and other aspects of the game that are not owned or controlled by specific users or groups. It's best to avoid group pages/subpages, journals written by specific users, or anything in User: space that isn't your own. If you have questions about specific pages or categories of pages, I can be more specific — you can also reach out to men on Discord, if that's more convenient, at the UDWiki Discord server.

Tikhon Medical is a group, btw, so I've again undone your edits to their subpage Tikhon Medical/Operations. Bob Moncrief ^EBD•W! 02:42, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

One more thing: DON'T edit what someone else has posted and signed with their signature. (Example: changing "Would" to "I would" in my message.) Doing so is considered impersonation and may lead to consequences under the wiki's vandalism policy. Even if someone's message is outrageously incorrect, it's their message and should be left as is.

Your Dove Windsor page

I also wanted to let you know that I moved your Dove Windsor page to User:Auri/Dove Windsor. Pages on wiki users should go in that user's User: space as subpages, rather than being in Mainspace. If you have any questions, let me know! Bob Moncrief ^EBD•W! 02:34, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

A question

I am curious as to whether you have played the game or used this wiki previously? If not, what drew you here? stelar ^{Talk|MCM|EBD|Scourge} 03:18, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
