Hi, thanks for contributing to the wiki. Note that the new article layout policy doesn't involve so much boilerplate as the old one. Also, {{wikilink}} should be left at the top. --Vladimir Nesov 23:32, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Also, see the page capitalization rules. --Vladimir Nesov 20:01, 25 June 2009 (UTC)

Please, don't create spacious redirects. --Vladimir Nesov 20:21, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

Don't stretch the wiki thin. Our version of notability heuristic is if a concept is useful in a few places (incl. in discussions on the blog). Wiki articles should contain at least some info, empty stubs are only acceptable for the pages that are linked from multiple places, and are important concepts, so that eventually they are going to be filled with info. Empty stub pages for obscure concepts about which there are even no blog posts are doomed to be empty for a long time, reducing the expected quality of a random page. --Vladimir Nesov 22:12, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

OBLW post summaries

I noticed you contributing heavily to the OBLW post summaries. You should probably see what I wrote on the talk page regarding their importance:
