Also, if you have any questions or suggestions you wish to offer, please feel free to do so either on your user talk page, the Wikipedian Quorum or Administrators' noticeboard. Remember to sign your posts on any talk pages using four tildes (~~~~)! We look forward to your contributions to the community!--CalculatinAvatar 03:12, 1 May 2006 (CDT)

As a further note, there are some subtleties to the linking style on a wiki. The wiki magically does the underscore (_) to space conversion, so there's no need to pipe (|) a link for that reason alone. There are special kinds of links for IMDb and Wikipedia, which are preferable for style reasons. The IMDb style is [[IMDB:codething|Title or Name or whatever]] where the "codething" is the part of an IMDb URI that looks like "nm0123456" or "tt0123456." The Wikipedia style is [[Wikipedia:Article title (disambiguatedasneeded)|article title]]
Hi CalculatinAvatar, thanks for your message. I appreciate that pointer you listed. I just wanted to get some notes down while I could and I appreciate the help. Cheers! Northtwilight 13:53, 1 May 2006 (CDT)
