Thanks
Thanks for fixing this&mdash;the use of "currently" (vs., say, "as of February 2010") is one of my biggest pet peeves on Wikipedia. I guess people are so used to writing "dead" documents (i.e., that are given a specific date in time and never evolve after being written) that they don't stop to think that whatever they write on Wikipedia will almost instantly be out of date if they preface it with "currently". So yes, thank you :) &mdash;Notyourbroom ( talk ) 17:52, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

would appreciate your help!
Hi ! I am new to wiki so i hope I'm typing this in the right spot! I'm reaching out to other users for help. As I understand it, I need to track down an established wiki editor to help me rid the first article i've created ("Stone and Stone")of the ugly box that was posted on top "This article has multiple issues....".

I know exactly how these complaints came about. In my ignorance on how wiki works, I gave myself the same nickname as the subject I was writing on and then a whole drama ensued, as it was assumed that I was my subject and that I was writing an autobiography! In truth, I am a huge comedy fan and biographer and was dipping my toes for the first time in wikipedia waters!

Any help or solutions you could provide me when you get the chance would be greatly appreciated! This poor little article certainly doesn't deserve such an ugly heading box because of my wiki-ignorance! Thank you in advance for your time! Comedybiographer (talk) 10:34, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
