Hey, Mitch, great work on the shows pages and with all the lyrics / tabs -- kinda brutal work, I know, but you can definitely take credit for taking us through most of the way to preparedness. Thanks, man! (PS: Have you checked your forum private messages?) --Bry 15:49, 5 April 2008 (EDT)

Let's make you a test case then ;) First of all, I gotta make sure you know the editing guidelines so... go read those! Especially the songs and shows subpages. Seriously. The main jobs of the moderators will be to delete vandalism and uphold standards, so it's important you know exactly how the templates and calendar work. Get back to me once you're sure you've got it, or just hit me up again if you've got any questions :) --Agent Lex (talk - contribs) 15:39, 7 April 2008 (EDT)

Shows calendar link add'd!!! --Agent Lex (talk - contribs) 15:59, 15 April 2008 (EDT)

In case you missed it, I've "nominated" you in the forum to take charge of WikiProject:Shows. That wikiproject doesn't exist yet, but you're already doing most of the duties related to it, so I figured it might be nice to make it official. Interested? --Bry 18:07, 17 April 2008 (EDT)

Re: WikiProject:Lyrics - it works fine in Firefox but doesn't in IE. I'll look into it. Thanks for the heads up! --Agent Lex (talk - contribs) 19:43, 22 April 2008 (EDT)

  • Figured it out. Damn nonstandard characters messing about with it again, I think. Same issue as the bullet points, but with apostrophes. I expect this means a lot of lyrics pages are messed up! --Agent Lex (talk - contribs) 19:47, 22 April 2008 (EDT)

Just thought I'd let you know, I've drafted you into the welcoming committee. Hope you don't mind! --Lex (talk - contribs) 17:46, 23 April 2008 (EDT)

Mitch: Excellent work with WikiProject:Themes! That's exactly what I was hoping would happen, but I hadn't gotten around to working out how to do it yet. Very impressed. (And I've just left this note on Lex's talk page, but what would you think about having a "Talk:Mods" or something? The three of us could all add it to our watchlists, and it might be an easier way a) to communicate among all of us b) to let people ask for help from a mod without directing it to a specific mod. --Bry 22:23, 27 April 2008 (EDT)

videoz

I'm just going through each of the songs I have videos for and adding links to them on YouTube to that song's page. I hope that's OK.

Hey, Mitch -- thanks for deleting my paragraph about cats 'n' such. I think I left that on the sandbox the first week or so that Lex put it up, and expected at the time it would all be scrubbed before the Pedia went live. You've Mister Cleaned it!

themes

Unfortunately, you have to have the plain [[Category:whatever]] for it to go in the category, and to list it you have to have the separate [[:Category:whatever|whatever]]. That's just the way MediaWiki works, I'm afraid. --Lex (talk - contribs) 12:06, 27 April 2008 (EDT)
