Welcome to D&D Wiki![edit]

Welcome!

Hello Proton and welcome to D&D Wiki. I hope you have been enjoying D&D Wiki and I hope you have been finding the information here useful. Before you start contributing it is recommended you make sure your user preferences match your preferences. I help administer D&D Wiki, and everything relating to D&D Wiki's administration can be found here.

Questions

If you have any questions about a specific page please ask it on that page's talk page. If you have a D&D-related question please ask it on DnD Discussions. Other questions should be asked to another (ask me a question).

Formatting

Formatting on D&D Wiki (or any wiki for that matter) can be very difficult, and if you need help a good place to start is Help:Editing on Wikipedia (or even their Introduction page). This will explain basic wiki formatting and should provide quite a few useful links that explain more specific areas of wiki formatting. Again, if you have any questions about formatting on D&D Wiki please ask them as, I imagine, anybody will be more than happy to help you get them answered.

Community

A strong and welcoming community exists on D&D Wiki, and I am sure you will find it rather nice. Most discussions take place on content talk pages, however please feel free to ask specific D&D-related questions on DnD Discussions. Anyway, possibly since discussions are never deleted, people try to be nice. This means follow Wikipedia's guidelines on civility and etiquette when discussing anything. Also, on a pretty different note, to ensure people know who posted what, please sign your name after a post with four tildes (~~~~) or by clicking on the signature icon (Signature icon.png). This will automatically produce your name and the date. Anyway, I hope you come to enjoy D&D Wiki and the community and welcome again, you are now a D&D Wikian. --Green Dragon 11:27, 21 December 2011 (MST)

{{5e Class Features}} bug[edit]

Thank you so much, that glitch in swashbuckler was annoying the hell out of me Lemiel14n3 (talk) 20:09, 28 December 2014 (MST)

All in a day's work. I also made the majority of that template, that particular issue slipped past me. Lots of ones and twos and threes. —Proton[talk] 00:02, 29 December 2014 (MST)

Azernath[edit]

Hi Proton, I hope you don't mind me remaking the Rune Blade (5e Archetype) so it can be put in the D&D Wiki Magazine/Issue 2 on time, if you do please call me either on the Rune Blade (5e Archetype) talk page or on my talk page. Azernath (talk) 10:17, 25 August 2015 (MDT)

Ownership[edit]

Hi Proton, regarding this edit, please note that we use Wikipedia's ownership policy [1] (and the message on every edit page " If you do not want your writing to be edited mercilessly and redistributed at will, then do not submit it here.") - i.e. you are not the only author. You may prefer to have a section or boxout with a design note. Marasmusine (talk) 04:11, 28 March 2016 (MDT)

I believe that requiring discussion before revision of that page is the best option to maximize its quality of design, and in turn maximize its contribution to the wiki. I feel these are reasonable grounds for ignoring the rule. Four times in the past I have reverted edits to the page while providing sound design reasons behind those reversions. I will continue to do this if I must, but I feel that discussing first and editing second will spare time for all involved parties. —Proton[talk] 23:45, 28 March 2016 (MDT)

Templates[edit]

I know you're not exactly the most active user these days, but I respect you quite a bit. I would appreciate your input on Help talk:Improving, Reviewing, and Removing Templates please. --Kydo (talk) 23:55, 14 September 2016 (MDT)
