Hi.
I'm Geniac. Not a Geniac; I am a human being. "Geniac" has been my online name for about... ummm... 12 years or so. If I were a collection of 50-year-old hardwood and jumpers, it would be pretty tricky for me to edit Wikipedia. I wouldn't even have opposable thumbs.
To leave me a message, please use my talk page. Thanks.

I use the following templates and snippets quite often on user talk pages. I have found that it is helpful to keep the following snippets of code in a text file, ready to copy-paste where needed.
==Welcome!==

{{subst:welcome2}} --~~~~
{{subst:anon}} --~~~~
==Preview==
{{subst:preview}} --~~~~

{{subst:summary}} --~~~~
For accepting/declining submissions to [[Wikipedia:Articles for creation|AfC]], please use [[Wikipedia:Articles for creation/Templates|the templates]]. Thanks. --~~~~
Please remember that you [[WP:SIGN|sign]] your posts on talk pages, but never in articles. Thank you and happy editing! --~~~~
