Romance section from PJ character page
I played around with the part about Calypso in my sandbox. Feel free to stop by and tell me what you think before I change it in the article. Thanks! PrincessofLlyr (talk) 01:44, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Just out of curiosity, why do you think the section should be shortened? Thanks for the feedback! PrincessofLlyr (talk) 19:33, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
 * It's way unimportant and should not be long. Pmlin  editor  06:04, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but I'm going to disagree with you on this. I'm trying to make the section as concise and streamlined as possible, but the very fact that Rick Riordan wrote a romance line into the plot makes it important. I know that to a guy that may seem fairly minor, but it is a subplot, which makes it necessary on his page. Like I said, I'll try to make it concise, but I will be adding all the necessary plot details. —Preceding unsigned comment added by PrincessofLlyr (talk • contribs) 14:31, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Look, I don't care about "to a guy"... My point is that the romance section should not exceed the other sections in length. It should be about 2k, not 4k. It should be assigned equal importance as any other section in the article. Cheers, and don't forget to sign. Pmlin  editor  15:50, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
 * PrincessofLlyr asked me to give something of a WP:3O on this. Here I go. I think the romance line is definitely important, although important does not equal big. I suggest shortening the ones on Calypso and Rachel a bit more because those sections have some un-relevant information as well as putting the events in chronological order in Annabeth's section (which I think is a good length considering the relationship between the two is described with much more detail throughout the series). I'll edit the page and show you guys the diff (will be done in about 30 mins). It can always be reverted if needed. Cheers, Airplaneman  talk 23:21, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
 * OK, here's the diff. It's only reduced by 10 bytes mainly because I added lots of links. I streamlined it as much as possible. I think it will be ready for integration into the main article space soon. Please tell me what you think guys.  Airplaneman  talk 23:52, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Looks good. I might change some small things when I've read through it a few more times. Thanks for the help! PrincessofLlyr (talk) 23:25, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (File:Reader.png)
 Thanks for uploading File:Reader.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Pmlin editor  18:38, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

Signature
Hello Pmlinediter! I see you are busy, so please look into this only if you have spare time. See, I was experimenting with my signature here and decided to give it a go and use it as my raw signature. In the preferences, I copied the thing from my sandbox to the signature line and checked the box underneath. I pressed save and it said that I had an invalid html or something. I don't have a clue when it comes to html, so I don't know what to fix. Since you look like you've done it before :), may you please take a look when you have a minute? Thanks, Airplaneman (talk) 02:34, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok, I'll try to fix it. Pmlin  editor  08:00, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks so much!!! So It looks like all of the formatting has to go in the brackets. Thanks!
