[edit] Thanks
I've been lurking a bit, although I won't have the time to create or fix major articles, I just like to page jump around fixing typos and such, maybe when I learn to do most of the editing things will I contribute more.

- Yep, that's one of the things which I also like to do... and it's greatly needed. An advice - when the latest edit to a page is anonymous (i.e. from an ip address), use the "compare selected versions" tool to see what the guy changed. This is to avoid unnoticed vandalisms, I've seen pages being vandalized, noone noticed and then the vandalised article became the basis for improvements for about half a month, until I noticed and undid his changes, merging the new ones in (which can be a lot of work)... Sorry for this big (and perhaps unnecessary) rant ;) Rbarreira 12:11, 29 July 2005 (UTC)
