== Thanks and hello! ==

Actually, I've been around for some time now, it's just hard to contribute to WikiFur, as most of the info is there already. But I am working on articles on Estonian WikiFur, that's a field that has plenty of work to do. And I would also write articles about couple of most-known Estonian furries to English WikiFur. Only thing bothering me is that I'd like to change my username to TDtheTiger (so it'd match my fursona and user names on other sites) but I'm not sure if it's possible to do on WikiFur sites without losing contributions.

All the best,
TD

:Hello, Riverside/TDtheTiger. I can rename your account '''TDtheTiger''' quite simply. I'm not completely sure, but I'm ''fairly'' confident that your editing history is retained during such a renaming. So if you want me to go ahead and change it, just say the word.--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 20:13, 29 August 2013 (EDT)

::Yes; the names will be adjusted everywhere, and the contributions remain. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 01:49, 2 September 2013 (EDT)

Hello MuddyTheFox here, sorry about the constant saving, I am very confused with all the layout and was being passed info from some friends to update their pages as it was just as confusing for them lol. Thanks again for the greeting too! :)
All the best!!
Ps I hope I posted this in the right place lol!

"Currently" as in...well...up to and including earlier this week :) Is there some particular phrase I should be using here ? [[User:Bezel|Bezel]] 12:46, 20 September 2013 (EDT)

:"As of (date)" would be good. The problem with "currently" is that it's rather vague.--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 12:51, 20 September 2013 (EDT)

::I can understand that, but "as of September 19th, 2013", seems a bit too specific ! Like giving GPS co-ordinates for a furmeet :) I'll have a ponder [[User:Bezel|Bezel]] 12:58, 20 September 2013 (EDT)

:::If you feel the day is too specific, try just broadening it to "As of September, 2013, he is working as a freelance event technician",--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 13:04, 20 September 2013 (EDT)

==User Page templates==
Hi, I might need some help and advice. I tried to create a user template, the ones you can place on your profile to display various things. Like whether you have an FA account etc. and I am having trouble making it into an actual template myself and others can use like that on their profile. I think I have also slightly messed up my user page as my links to being a wikifurry have disappeared and some of my current templates. Sorry for the fuss and any help would be much appreciated!{{unsigned|Mikune}}
:Hello, Mikune. I think it's working now. The template needed a few small adjustments, that's all, and I've renamed it [[Template:User_Leeds_Furmeet]]. To add it to anyone's User Page, just include the code '''<nowiki>{{User Leeds Furmeet}}</nowiki>'''. --[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 14:26, 23 September 2013 (EDT)

Thank you, your help is much appreciated! --[[User:Mikune|Mikune]] 01:45, 29 September 2013 (EDT)

==User page - random blue background?==
Hi, I would just like to ask about something that sometimes occurs during preview of an edit. Well, a sort of half blue background appears when I click to view my edits before publishing. Is this something wrong with the code in my userpage or is it not actually there when published? [[User:Mikune|Mikune]] 00:29, 29 September 2013 (EDT)
:You may wish to direct this query to [[User:GreenReaper]]. Viewing your User Page, I don't see any half-blue background, nor do I get the effect you describe if I open it for editing and click the Show Preview button. GR has a better understanding of WikiFur's nuts and blocks than I do, so if there's some some subtle glitch then he may be able to offer advice.--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 10:44, 29 September 2013 (EDT)

== Deletion of page inqury ==

Hey it's [[user:MilitaryAviator]], just wondering if you could delete http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Cole_Cherno for me. I'm in a transition period at the moment, (changing fursona's) so once I finish, I'll make another page. So if you could please delete my cole cherno page, that would be greatly appreciated.-[[user:MilitaryAviator]] 18:16 EST, 1 October, 2013
:From the POV of WikiFur's curators, it'd be easier and tidier if you decided on your new fursona and then simply rewrote the existing article, which would then be moved if the name has changed as well.--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 19:12, 1 October 2013 (EDT)
::Alright, I edited my page, I just need you to change the url from Cole Cherno To MilitaryAviator if you could please ---[[user:MilitaryAviator]] 9:28, 3 October 2013 (EST)

Hi there...
I wanted to have my page deleted. It's www.en.wikifur.com/wiki/Nicholas_Jasaitis. I've been clearing the page and saying "user wished to be excluded," but people just keep reverting it. If you could delete it, that would be absolutely wonderful. Thanks! -Nick

== Personal exclusion vs Blanking ==

Hi 24.34.158.142, you have recently (again) blanked or removed lots of information from the article [[Nicholas Jasaitis]]‎, which was reverted by another editor. If you are Nicholas Jasaitis‎ and wish to be excluded from WikiFur, you can request personal exclusion, but to do so, you must do it via a verifiable form of communication (a [[Twitter]]/[[Facebook]]/[[Livejournal]] posts/internal message, a note via [[Fur Affinity]], a quick post somewhere on the
The Transformation Story Archive, etc...). Hope this helps. - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 19:00, 29 September 2013 (EDT)

Hi [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] and [[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]]. I am using my phone to type this, so please excuse any typos. I am Nick, and do wish to be excluded from WikiFur. I don't have any methods of contacting anybody to request exclusion, and so I can only wish that people don't do what people haven't been doing: deleting my edits. Please stop reverting my posts and, if possible, I wish for my page to be deleted. Thanks! -nick
