User talk:SomethingElse
We're glad that you signed up so that you can edit, build, and shape the Zelda Dungeon Wiki! Before you start editing, why don't you check out some of these useful links and read these basic rules?
- Edit your settings. Make sure you have set up your settings to make the wiki work the way you want it. We have a bunch of customizations that we have spent time creating, and we hope that you utilize them to the fullest.
- Please treat all members with respect. We don't want to have to ban someone because there is an issue between our users.
- Use wikicode and link templates when making edits to properly format pages. Use templates often to save on coding everything.
- If you have some questions, instead of sitting around doing nothing, ask our administration team. They won't bite.
- Head to our help page to find some links to helpful pages that will teach you how to do many things on the wiki.
- Read the FAQ to find the answers to a few common questions.
- Please use proper grammar and strive for good edits.
- Always sign talk pages with four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically sign the page with your username and date.
- Use talk pages to talk about edits on pages. Do not participate in editing wars (i.e. editing a page over and over again to make the page what you think it should be rather than what another member thinks) as they are counter productive and will not solve the problem. Use the talk pages like they were meant to be used.
We hope that you enjoy your time here on the Zelda Dungeon Wiki and that you will help us make lots of really good edits. Keep in mind that the administration team will be watching for quality editors to bring them on to our site staff.
Do you have any initial questions? Feel free to ask on one of our staff talk pages.
Thanks again for joining! Can't wait to see you around!

Doing good work on cleaning up the quests. A couple notes. 1 - Standard rule for spaces after a period at the end of a sentence is two spaces if it's fixed width font, or one space if it is not. In this case, when we are editing a page, it's fixed-width font, but the final result is a variable-width font. So only use one space after a period. (Unless it's the end of the paragraph in which case don't put a space at all, of course.) 2 - In quest writeups, I particularly want to call out when the objective marker DOES indicate which way to go next. There are several times it does not, but when the objective marker DOES indicate which way to go, I want to say "head to the objective marker." If you want to ALSO call out where that objective marker is (or link to it on the map) feel free, but please don't remove the mentions that the objective marker does actually point the way. Thanks!
