Initial Capitals[edit]

There's absolutely nothing wrong with edits like this, but MediaWiki doesn't care about the case of the first letter in a link. For instance, George Adamski is the same as george Adamski... but not [[George adamski]] (I put nowiki tags around that one to stop it being a wanted link). –SuspectedReplicant retire me 01:23, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Well it was actually for more stylistics reasons :) Thanks for the heads up about the software though, didn't know the first letter second word worked differently than the first. As to the first edit you mentioned; is that the preferred style, capitals at the start of each word on a list? Also, since you posted and seem available to ask [;)], when people are categorized (like Ayaan Hirsi Ali) who criticize a certain religion, should we add them to the pertinent religious category (Islam) in this case? Thanks for the tips! - EWildman (talk) 01:38, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
RW:MOS gives most of the detail - and yes, it means I was wrong to give this section a capital "C" for "Capitals" :)
Categories... not sure. The category system seems subject to whim and changes every so often. Best bet is to make your changes and see if somebody else reverts them. –SuspectedReplicant retire me 01:43, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
I am sure I have already made that mistake a few times, I better read up again, thanks. About categories, good advice :). That's what I've been doing already pretty much, so I shall carry on like that then. Thanks for the help, it's appreciated! - EWildman (talk) 02:59, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Sysop[edit]

Too many edits to avoid it any longer. You are now a sysop. Here's the guide, feel free to ask about anything. Blue (pester) 23:32, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

Damn! Knew I shouldn't have worked so hard ;). I shall do my best, and there will be lots of questions soon enough I'm sure :) Thanks - EWildman (talk) 23:40, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
