I just created the bloody thing. Why not let me finish before we go and delete it!

  • What you created was a blank article, that's why. When creating an article, don't just create it for the sake of creation, and then add content - add content right away. Lancer Sykera 14:34, 12 December 2005 (UTC)


Two minutes? That's not quick enough? I'm one of those unfortuantes who must save at each step of creation to see how it looks. How'd you find it so fast anyway?

  • There is a nifty little button labeled "Show preview" right next to the "Save page" button for just that purpose - checking it while you're editing to see how it looks. If you turn this into a good article then congrats. When you start articles in the future, remember the lesson learned here ;-) Lancer Sykera 14:47, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Now we're getting somewhere! I actually know what this article is about now! You might want to mention the author's real name, and that it was written under a pseudonym. Good luck! Lancer Sykera 14:54, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Sentence removed

I've removed the sentence "The Kittons are the means by which the Nostrilians protect their monopoly on the santa clara drug, stroon." as this doesn't make sense. What is a Nostrillian? What is a santa clara drug? And even if it were possible to tell what these were, it wouldn't explain what a Kitton was. CLW 15:06, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

You can't say what a "Kitton" is without giving away the story. Hopefully I've added enough information to resolver the problems. AnonMoos 15:28, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
Yep - nice one! CLW 15:32, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
