Date your talk comments
Your recent comments to talk pages have been undated. Perhaps you are signing with three tildes rather than four. Do you think you could sign with four, for the sake of uniformity and clarity of record? Thanks. Chupchup 21:39, 20 June 2013 (PDT)

Redirects
Are you planning on making redirects for everything? There's a reason I created the fl and cl templates, you know. --Belthazar451 08:00, 9 August 2013 (PDT)


 * Several of the redirects from today already existed (as links to the list; for ex.); I was just making them more direct. Nonetheless, thank you for the reminder about those two templates! -- Franklincain (t/c) 08:41, 9 August 2013 (PDT)

What is "R with possibilities"?
I created a redirect and you added " "...What is the purpose of that? Thank you. - Athilda 17:07, 11 August 2013 (PDT)


 * Whenever you see something within a double set of curly braces, that usually means it's some other article within this wiki that is being included in its entirety. The most common examples are what are called templates. That specific template ("R with possibilities") is one of the templates specifically for redirects. -- Franklincain (t/c) 17:11, 11 August 2013 (PDT)

Sub-templates to block error messages
We want error messages. Error messages are good. They let us know when something's not right. If you create sub-templates to suppress the appearance of error messages, we might never notice that there's an error occurring. --Belthazar451 12:57, 3 April 2014 (PDT)


 * The error message(s) in question were strictly for the missing sub-templates. In other words, those specific error messages were serving no useful function. Furthermore, by adding those two sub-templates, we instead get the "missing file" error message (if any), which in this case *IS* a good thing, since we *do* need the image files for the new furniture items! ;-)
 * Thanks, though. Appreciate the feedback, and the chance to explain my reasoning. -- Franklincain (t/c) 14:13, 3 April 2014 (PDT)
