[edit] Some links to help get you started
Here are some resources to help familiarize yourself with the Homestar Runner Wiki:
- Before you do any significant editing, be sure to read our wiki standards and our other policies.
- If you need general information, editing tips, or answers to frequently asked questions, check out the various help pages.
- To practice editing, head over to the sandbox.
- If you have a question that isn't addressed on a help page, you can ask it on the FAQ talk page.
To get plugged in to the community:
- Let us know a little bit about yourself on your user page. (Please see the rules and guidelines for your user space first.)
- If you're not sure what you can do to help out, head over to The Stick.
- If you're looking for more community interaction, you can also register over at our forum, or if you're feeling creative, you can register separately at the fanstuff wiki.
- If you see an update on homestarrunner.com that isn't listed on the Main Page, put it up here.
- To sign and timestamp a post on a talk page, type four tildes (~~~~).
- Above all, be sure to be bold and have fun!

[edit] It wasn't an insult
When I put up your "Full Screen" page for deletion, it wasn't meant as a personal insult. So many users have been known to take offense when their pages or edits are not kept, but it's not meant that way. I didn't even delete it immediately, though I could have (I figured I'd let others give their input). That said, pages are kept or deleted based on their merits to the Wiki, as per consensus among the users. --Jay (Gobble) 22:42, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
