Hi!
Thanks for the help, Ahunt. I will be looking at these pages, and perhaps yours for ideas on how to build my own page.

P.S, I thought your page looked awesome.

Question time!
What is the sandbox for? I've never really used it.

 * It's just a place to experiment with wikitext you've never used, or want to use in a different way. Head over to your sandbox and experiment away! --MarkTraceur (talk) 18:45, 22 September 2016 (UTC)

Template Help

Okay, so I'm trying to get the status template up above (the one that is currently saying I'm "somewhere") to work properly. I thought I had followed the directions carefully, but apparently not. Ideas? Kingstevenrules (talk) 19:54, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
 * The status page must give the "full" status, not just an abbreviation: Make it "away" instead of "a", and it should work. Huon (talk) 20:07, 26 September 2016 (UTC)


 * In reply to your message at my talk page: I just tested both "online" and "away" statuses with your templates, and both work as advertised. It might be necessary to purge the cache to see a changed status take effect. Huon (talk) 18:40, 27 September 2016 (UTC)
