Welcome!

Hello, Draeth Darkstar, and welcome to the Paragon Wiki! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Feel free to fill out your personal user page so we can get to know you. There is a collection of Userboxes you can easily add there. Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

Don't forget to drop by and introduce yourself in the forum. It will require a separate registration (login and password), but most users use the same username in both places. There's even an RSS Feed, if you're into that.

If you need help, ask me on my talk page or ask on the forums and someone will try to to answer your questions shortly.

Also, make sure you take a look at the Help page. There are a lot of preloaded images, missions, and contact info templates, and what you want to add might already be there.

Again, welcome! -- Eabrace 00:31, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks a lot! I'm not a super duper active player at the moment (real life is busy) but I am a little bit obsessive compulsive, so when I use the Wiki and see something that could use some fleshing out I will do my best! Draeth Darkstar 08:27, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

RE: Mastermind henchman WIP

Thanks for the link. I'll have to look those images over to see if they'll work for what I have in mind. I'm also working on getting the demo info for the henchmen so that I can eventually create some images like GuyPerfect created for the bots where it's just a blank backdrop.

The table with my characters is pulled onto my page from here. It's been a slowly evolving little project of mine to play with that. Originally, it was all pure HTML - functional, but not that easy to maintain. Eventually I converted as much of the table as I could to wiki markup, but at the time there still wasn't a way to get images to link to anything but the image's own page, so there was still a significant amount of HTML in there. Recently MediaWiki added the ability to specify a link when you include an image, and incorporating that into the table gave me what you now see. I'm thinking my next step might be to see if I can compress each table into a series of simple calls to about 3 or 4 templates to make it easy for others to use if they want. For now though, most of it's just by hand. If you'd like some help setting up something similar, I'd be happy to give you a hand. --Eabrace 16:20, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Edit Spam

Instead of hitting "save", you can hit "preview", and it'll show you what your edits will look like, and then it has an edit field at the bottom for further tweaking. This way you don't spam Recent Changes with tons and tons of tiny edits, completely overwhelming other edits. :) -- Agge (talk) 17:33, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
