Hey Iain,

When signing your comments. Use three or four squiggles like this:

~~~~

That turns automatically into a signature that links back to your home page. Four squiggles shoss your name and the date. Three, just your name.

*hits head* Doh! I forgot to do that on the last message that I wrote. Thanks for the reminder. :)

Iain's TODO

• Find Animated GIF of Man walking (in ASCII art)
• Create 'color' or 'raised' info box look, via Templates.
• See if printable:[[Main_Page&printable=yes]] Works.

Verified works in the latest version, catch is that the full URL needs to be written out.

i.e. [http://wiki.freegeek.com/index.php?title=Main_page&printable Print Main page]

• Update Bellingham whenever possible.

how to spell "propagating"

Yo, Iain:

I moved the misspelled version of the page, made sure that nothing linked to it, deleted the redirect page, and then you recreated the old misspelled one with a comment. So now I've recreated the redirect page, inadvertantly overwriting your comment in the misspelled version.

• Propogating Concerns is a misspelling.
• Propagating Concerns is not.
