== Links to Wikipedia ==

Hey there, thanks for helping out with some articles. Anyway, I would just like to point out one thing to you that many people seem to miss when linking articles to Wikipedia. What you, and many other people, seem to do is link the articles by doing <nowiki>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrhytmia Arrhythmia]</nowiki>. While this is how you'd normally use an external link, most websites that use a wiki format, including everything within the Wikia system, has a shortcut when linking to the main "Online Encyclopedia." This can be done with two square brackets on either side like a normal link, and putting "wikipedia:" in front of the desired article name, so the final link will read <nowiki>[[wikipedia:Arrhytmia|Arrhythmia]]</nowiki> in the editor. Anyway, I hope you continue to contribute. {{User:Schiffy/Sig1|17:22,6/17/2013}}

== Fixes ==

God, you just love to get rid of walls of text, don't you? Well, can't say that's a bad thing. Also... I have to admit I didn't know about that <nowiki><poem></nowiki> thing. Cool shit right there. {{User:Schiffy/Sig1|02:46,6/19/2013}}

== About the surnames ==

Actually, there's a reason why the pages are named with the first names only. That reason is because whenever a text box appear when a character is talking, the box actually only uses their first name. The characters are very rarely referred to or identified by their surnames, or in cases like Mutou, their first names. So, for the time being, the name not used on the page will simply redirect to that character's page. {{User:Schiffy/Sig1|19:07,6/21/2013}}
