Using Show Preview

Hello Gavino, I see that you have made several consecutive edits to the same page. I want to point out the Show Preview button. It's right next to the Save Page button when you edit. You should use it whenever you are making a lot of experimental edits, for example when you are trying to get formatting right. Using the Show Preview button is quicker and easier than saving and clicking "edit" again, and will keep recent changes and page histories from being flooded. Thanks, Super Martyo boing! 01:06, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

i wanted to added something else but i had already pressed enter Gavino

No biggie. Just keep that button in mind though. :-) --TheYellowDart—(t/c) 01:19, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Hey, also, to fix that weird line junk going on with your userboxes, you can add either {{userboxtop}} or {| to the top of your userpage and |} at the bottom. Hope it helps! -- Super Martyo boing! 01:20, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

There you go. Fixed. --TheYellowDart—(t/c) 01:21, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Gavino, remember to use the show preview button, son. mmkay? --TheYellowDart—(t/c) 01:24, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

i will next time Raiku

Mod

About your recent edit stating that MichaelXX2 should "stop acting like such a mod", let's not go there. On this wiki, it's every user's mission to keep this wiki clean (by the way, swearing isn't permitted except in certain circumstances). Not just the mods'. Thanks, DevonM(talk·cont-ribs) 02:20, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Another thing. When someone reverts an edit and they have been on the wiki for quite some time, that means that the edit was bad, and you should say no more about it rather than start a flame war. — MichaelXX2 02:30, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

No it doesn't. Just because you've been on here for a year or so doesn't make you any better of an editor than anyone else. You can't revert someone just because the fact has been on there for quite some time and you think it should stay. This wiki doesn't have any policy that states: "If I, a user with a longer record on the wiki, say your edit was bad, it was bad". DevonM(talk·cont-ribs) 02:33, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Well, that's not quite what I meant. I mean that you really shouldn't restore edits that have been reverted several times. — MichaelXX2 02:35, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Michael, it takes two to edit war. — Defender1031*Talk 02:36, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Your subpages

Hey there, Gavino. Please have a look at HRWiki:User space to find out about the wiki's policy regarding subpages. I have deleted User:Gavino/Wiki Idol because it is basically fanstuff. Your subpages User:Gavino/Usernames and User:Gavino/Real Names are also not OK under the policy. Please add the {{delete}} template at the top of each of these pages so that a sysop can delete them. Thank you for understanding. Loafing 05:44, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

On the policy page, you'll also find that it's generally not OK to edit someone else's user page or signature. Please don't do it again. Thanks. Loafing 05:58, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

You really should have complied with Loafing's instruction, but I guess it doesn't matter, as I've just gone ahead and deleted it. Note also that you really shouldn't be gathering people's real names in one place without permission, anyway (yes, I know it's information that's already available, but still).

Reverting fixes

Stop reverting fixes to Most in the Graveyard. If you can't understand the words, that does not mean others cannot understand the words. --Jay (Gobble) 04:51, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Wiki hosting

If you need someone to host your MediaWiki (note the difference from WikiMedia) wiki, I suggest checking out one of these sites that offer free MediaWiki hosting. — It's dot com 16:35, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

I can't find anything. ¡ÉlGavino! 19:05, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Whether you can find anything or not is not this wiki's problem, and it's not very polite to use our wiki as a place to try to find your own. However, being the nice guy that i am, i will suggest that you may want to try Wikia. — Defender1031*Talk 20:19, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Though, they probably won't accept it since there is already a wiki on that topic. JCM 21:32, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Warning

Hey there, Gavino. As I have already told you, it is not OK to casually edit someone else's user page. I am serious about this. Do not do it again. Loafing 01:57, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Please stop it. The rules of the wiki are that you may not casually edit like that, regardless of whether the user says you can or not. — Defender1031*Talk 02:01, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Please stop reverting. You can NOT edit others' user pages under almost any circumstance. Please stop or you will be blocked. — MichaelXX2 02:04, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Re: this edit, if a sysop tells you that you are doing something wrong, you probably are. — Defender1031*Talk 02:08, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Please don't remove the content from your talk page unless you respond to us. You look like you're hiding something. — MichaelXX2 02:10, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
