| - | Hey there Bill. Glad to have you aboard. I know Rogue Leader has already welcomed you, but I also want to drop a note to say hi. It looks like the information below is the beginnings of a page that you plan on creating. If that's the case, then I have a suggestion for you: You should build pages on a user subpage (for example, "User:Bill Martinson/Prank Calls"), and then when you're ready, use the move button at the top to transfer your page to its final home. The advantage to using a subpage is that this page can be used for user discussion, such as this message. Incidentally, I learned something about "comprise" today, and I have you to thank for it. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 18:17, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

| - | * Thanks for the tip ... I was actually building the real page with its actual title, but naturally I didn't want to actally save it until it was finished. Your way is much better, as I can save periodically while I'm working, and (as you point out) I can benefit from others' feedback. Thanks! — [[User:Bill Martinson|Bill Martinson]] 18:47, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

| - | * So now I have [[User:Bill Martinson/Reference]] and [[User:Bill Martinson/Obviously Phony Aliases]] ... is there a way to automatically include a list of all my subpages? — [[User:Bill Martinson|Bill Martinson]] 18:51, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
| + | == Long time, no see! == |
| - | ::I'm not aware of a method to ''automatically'' list subpages. If, however, you happened to forget what they are, you could look them up in [[Special:Allpages]] under the User namespace. [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Special%3AAllpages&from=Bill+Martinson&namespace=2 This link] would take you straight to them. But as far as listing them here in your user space, you'll have to do that manually. By the way, once you create a user page, your subpages will automatically have a backlink to your main page. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 19:44, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

| - | New Question: I moved my page from User:Bill Martinson/Obviously Phony Aliases to Obviously Phony Aliases, but the category pages (for Running Gags and Lists) still point to the original page (which is now a redirect). This ''works'', of course, but it looks thoroughly awful in the category lists. I tried to fix this by looking for the right templates to edit, but the categories mechanism doesn't seem to use templates (as best I can tell). So it would seem that either the move function is not really the best way to do this, or there is something about it I don't understand. — [[User:Bill Martinson|Bill Martinson]] 20:38, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
| + | :Good to see you too, my friend. Yes, I have been too long absent. Life has been very busy for me lately. {{User:Bill/sig}} 15:59, 31 October 2006 (UTC) |

| - | : Found the workaround: delete the category tags from the article, save, then put them back in. I guess in the future I'll have to keep such tags as plain text until I move the article to its final destination. — [[User:Bill Martinson|Bill Martinson]] 21:06, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

| - | ::Hmm. I know there's a simpler way, but when I tried to test it, I couldn't recreate the situation (even though this has happened to me before). Oh, well. As long as it works now. Rock, rock on! — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 21:43, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

| - | Ooh, it really bugs me when people confuse ''everyday'' for ''every day''. And then I sometimes see ''every-day'' in place of ''everyday'', in news articles! Does no one speak English anymore?! Anyway, high fives. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 04:10, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
