User talk:Bluescreenofdeath
Welcome!
Hi, Bluescreenofdeath! Welcome, and thanks for joining NetHackWiki!
- The How to help and Style guide pages are excellent starting points.
- Special:Recentchanges is a great first stop, because you can see what other people are editing right this minute, and where you can help.
- Questions? Need help? You can ask at the Community Portal, the forum, or on the discussion page associated with each article! Just remember to sign those posts with four tildes: ~~~~. That will expand to create a signature.
You can put {{NAOplayer|NAO player account}} on your user page to link to your NAO player account. Capitalization matters.
We are really happy to have you here, and look forward to working with you!
This is an automated greeting.

Hi, and welcome to the wiki! (Sorry for this sounding so much like a canned greeting… it's not, I promise!) I've seen your variant's entry and your user page, so I decided to come up with some constructive suggestions:
- You can format the list of features on your user page as an actual list like the one I'm using here (look at the page source). That looks nicer and is better for semantics and accessibility (be sure not to include blank lines between the list items; most users won't notice, but it actually creates multiple one-element lists).
- You might want to upload some of those images to the wiki, especially those which might be used to illustrate your variant's article, so they can be embedded and displayed there. Also have a look at ttymaps, for example those used on the main page.
- I'd probably put that feature list on your variant's page instead of your user page. Feel free to have whatever information you want on your user page and its subpages (well, try to keep it somewhat NetHack-related and nobody will complain), of course :)
- Consider using a version control system, such as Git; that's generally a good idea, and all major forks use one. You could put your variant on Github, for example.
Unfortunately, due to the upcoming holidays, I haven't had time to actually play or even build your variant yet. I'll try it as soon as I have time, though! :) —bcode talk | mail 20:38, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
