- Thanks for that welcome, Mike. I'll review the new stuff; a lot has changed since I first signed up at Wikipedia (I'm user #188).
- I came here to fix a typo in a template which was invoked by another template: wheels within wheels, you might say.
- By the way, I really like templates. I created the {age} template at Wikipedia before parser functions were available, and one of the developers complained that the template was slowing down the server. It was a case of either banning complex calculations or facilitating them. I glad he decided to facilitate them, because {age} is used in over 50,000 articles. --Ed Poor (talk) 12:50, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
- I know who you are :) — Mike.lifeguard | @en.wb 19:23, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
Hmm, sounds ominous. Oh, well, if I throw up my hands I'm sure to be rescued. \o/ --Ed Poor (talk) 16:47, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
