Thanks for the tips. I'll do some reading on the punctuation that you mentioned. If that's the wikipedia syle I'll just have to deal, right? Thanks again for the help. [[User:Appendophobia|Appendophobia]] 03:23, 7 July 2007 (UTC) |

Actually I don't think [[Wikipedia]] has come to a clear consensus on punctuation involving quotation marks. I read the writing guide style book as well as http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quotation_marks. I see no grammatical or historical basis for using the "logical" punctuation style of commas and periods outside quote marks. I guess I'll have to agree to disagree. I do understand Wikipedia is |

Hey, why did you delete the lads thing? Its not really something you can source, unless I made a website and then wrote up a thing about lads on it, which is kinda cheating... It was all accurate. I forgot to mention "eshays," but apart from that its pretty true and so on. Anyway. Yeah. whatever.
- Hi. Please take a look at Wikipedia:Verifiability, Wikipedia:Reliable sources and Wikipedia:No original research.
I need help.
When I first got here, I thought this is the place to get creative. Now I'm regretting my decision. I really need some help. If I'm going to be creative, major or minor, can you help me out? I'm worried that if I make another mistake, I'll end up giving up on an idea of editing. Show me at least one example and I'll follow that example. Thank you. Please reply the comment into "My Talk". Thank you.
thanks chocolateboy
