Welcome to D&D Wiki![edit]
- Welcome!
Hello Recawronghouse, and welcome to D&D Wiki! I hope you are enjoying D&D Wiki and have been finding the information here useful. Before you start contributing, we recommend you make sure your user preferences match your preferences.

- Formatting
Syntax 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. Help:Portal also provides detailed explanation of information important specifically to this community.

Your Races[edit]
Hi, I have seen you post on talk pages asking for feedback on races you've created (such as on Talk:Gemnis (5e Race)). This is a good thing; however, that's the entire purpose of talk pages, and directing people to your subreddit to give feedback generally isn't how this should be done. Thank you for your understanding. (as a side note, I'm unsure what "suggestions with the intent of messing with the race" is supposed to mean) — Geodude671

- Sorry I am not really sure how the whole "Talk" thing works on here and I just assumed I could do this instead. It was easier at least for me and also I literally just made the subreddit when I made the first discussion for my Gemnis race. Now I am sorry if this isn't how its done, but I don't know how this all works and for me thats the best way. if it is a bother thats my bad, but I am really bad at learning new stuff and also the thing is some people are trolls and they do that stuff for fun. So I generally add that for those just in case moments, but meh anyways I am not even sure that you will even see this because I don't understand how the "Talk" stuff works and ugh well you get if you read this. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Recawronghouse (talk • contribs) .

- Okay, here's a very quick rundown of how talk pages work: you type up your comments just like you would a reddit post, and you're supposed to add your signature at the end of your posts by placing four tildes (~~~~) which will cause the site to replace that text string with your name and a timestamp. To reply to someone's post, you add your comments right underneath theirs; and add a colon ( : ) to indent the post, just like you have comment threads on reddit. If you're replying to a reply, you add two colons which will indent the post further, et cetera, and you can do this all the way up to thirteen colons. If you look at the text of this conversation we're having right now, you'll see I indented your post, and my new post has two colons at the beginning to indent it further. When I first started using wikis, I also had trouble with the concept of talk pages, but I'm sure you'll be an expert in no time :) — Geodude671

I would like to say that your races show you have put a great amount of effort into them... Now if we could just get someone to help you out with the formating you would be golden (some of it may be pretty complicated) --Meep (talk) 22:17, 6 February 2018 (MST)
