Welcome!

Hello, Thebog1, and welcome to the Paragon Wiki! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Feel free to fill out your personal user page so we can get to know you. There is a collection of Userboxes you can easily add there. Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

If you need help, ask me on my talk page or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

Don't forget to drop by and introduce yourself in the Forum. It will require a separate registration (login and password), but most users use the same username in both places. There's even a RSS Feed, if you're into that.

Also, make sure you take a look at the Help page. There is a lot of preloaded images, missions, and contact info, and what you want to add might already be there.

Again, welcome! -- Agge (talk) 02:58, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

Edits

Make sure you are not creating redundant pages when you are updating things. Lorekeeper I exists at Lorekeeper Badge. Swashbuckler I exists at Swashbuckler Badge. Etc. etc. -- Agge (talk) 13:05, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

Canada Joe still exists. Please stop removing him from Port Oakes. -- Agge (talk) 13:05, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
Contact pages explain how they are opened/unlocked. We do not need to clutter the zone pages with that information unless it is a special unlock, like Badges. -- Agge (talk) 13:13, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

Copy/Pasting vs. Typing

I noticed you made this comment when editing the Reconnassaince Officer page: Typing to be added.. (a lot to type!) - but found in front of Fort Hades. The good news is that as of Issue 13, you can highlight text in-game and copy it using Control-C, then paste it onto the wiki page with Control-V. You'll need to format the text afterwards, but it's a lot better than typing everything out! --K26dp 20:33, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

LOL.. You're right.. and too late. I already hand-typed everything and hand-formatted it, LOL... oh well, but thanks for future ref. :) Thebog1 21:52, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Cap, Port

Hey, I noticed you created duplicate articles Cap and Port for Cap au Diable and Port Oakes. You can just create redirects instead by using syntax like this in, for example, the Port article:

#REDIRECT [[Port Oakes]]

Then it'll point users to the Port Oakes article. That way we only have to maintain one copy of the article. I've replaced the new duplicate articles with redirects, if you'd like to make changes to the zone articles, please do so at their existing pages. Thanks! -- Sekoia 03:30, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

Hey Thebog1

I see that you are going on quite a tear for these zone articles.  :) I just noticed that one of them (maybe all) had "Lvl." rather than "Level". In most cases, this wiki tries to avoid abbreviations as much as possible. Be sure to check out this post made by Tony back in '06. Cheers! - Snorii 16:39, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

Ashley McKnight

Actually, Ashley will offer both Golden Roller and Marshal Brass. I just did the Origin of Power arc and she offered both of them to me separate from the missions. I kept having to make sure I picked "Ask about available missions" instead of "Be introduced to a new contact."--Blondeshell 06:25, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
