I sue the preview button regularly, and in all honesty, it is not your right to tell me how I build and edit my wiki page. I have a process which I follow that follows my train of thought. Therefore it is updated and edited regularly along the process. It is not the process, but the ends that it achieves.
Please see [[Terre Haute Shipyard]], and compare the changes I've done with the values you've put into the first edition. It's generally easy to see what type of station it is, based on the name or infocard.

When you create bases on the wiki, if you don't know the '''type''' of station, please leave it blank. The template will automatically adjust itself and alert us to "uncategorised". And If you don't know the '''class''' just leave that blank too.
 
 
 
Okay, I'll pay more attention to that in future...
 
Also, I have made this:

That can be used to fill the base templates until Cshake has made a content generator for it. ;)
 
Oh, and please sign the stuff you add to my talk page, so I don't have to look in the history to find out who put it up. ;)

Alex . . . I '''did''' sign your page. I wrote all of it. [[User:Chovynz| ~Chovynz~ ]] <sup>([[User_talk:Chovynz|Blabs]] • [[Special:Contributions/Chovynz|Ego]]) (Wiki Admin) </sup> 01:41, 1 October 2009 (MDT)
 
 
 
No... You forgot the signature bit at the end, that says your user name, and a time stamp... Oh, and GET BACK ON SKYPE! --[[User:Alex|Alex]] 07:58, 1 October 2009 (MDT)
 
 
 
==General Template usage==
 
This is the guideline for using most templates actually. If you don't know the answer to a field (question), just leave it blank. I don't want to spend time filling in an answer that I don't know with a space filler answer that doesn't actually add anything to the information. There's no point to manual space fillers on this wiki. So there are categories that are applied automatically to tell us what page needs more info.
 
 
 
Doing it this way will help you become a faster, more efficient wiki editor, and will help me with the overseeing of the accuracy of the wiki content.

Actually, check the notice, "Doing more checks on gunboats and cap ships, don't use for those yet, otherwise go ahead!", it's ready for all ships EXCEPT Gunboats and caps. --[[User:Alex|Alex]] 15:41, 1 October 2009 (MDT)
 
 
 
==Stop==
 
Until you are better at wiki editing I'm asking you to stop commenting on users talk pages please. If you see a problem talk to me, and leave me a message for me to sort out, then leave the issue alone. You are giving '''bad advice''' and '''incorrect information'''. Pay attention to the more experienced wiki editors and you'll do well. Pay attention to your own work and you'll do even better. You're doing some pretty stupid mistakes, so you're in no position to tell other wiki editors what to do and how to edit the wiki. So please stop.
 
 
 
Thanks. :) [[User:Chovynz| ~Chovynz~ ]] <sup>([[User_talk:Chovynz|Blabs]] • [[Special:Contributions/Chovynz|Ego]]) (Wiki Admin) </sup> 22:47, 10 October 2009 (MDT)

In reference to telling me to use the preview button.

I sue the preview button regularly, and in all honesty, it is not your right to tell me how I build and edit my wiki page. I have a process which I follow that follows my train of thought. Therefore it is updated and edited regularly along the process. It is not the process, but the ends that it achieves.

I can understand your position, as it can tend to spam the recent changes board- and I will try to reduce the overall saves I make. But there will, without a doubt, be many more changes, and many more additions. And in each case, the article will be of an equal or greater quality to the one you reference.

Good day.

-S. O'Connel.
