SW:SIGN

Your sig image is 35px, which exceeds the 20px limit. You need to make it smaller. Scr7 14:41, 18 August 2013 (EDT)

I adjusted it--egadardery (edits) 15:06, 18 August 2013 (EDT)

That is correct. Scr7 15:09, 18 August 2013 (EDT)

It's now okay height-wise, but it's way over the width limit of 50px. Toomai Glittershine The Golden 16:31, 18 August 2013 (EDT)

I don't this this is really a problem, because I don't have any text in my signature. As you can see, my signature is already smaller than yours.--egadardery (edits) 08:01, 19 August 2013 (EDT)

The spirit of most of the signature rules is "distinctive, but not disruptive". In my opinion your current sig is heavily disruptive because it makes itself stand out on a talk page, using a fat font rendered in large blocks of colour almost 120px long, which makes it more challenging to read the actual content of the page. Even previewing this edit, I find my eyes drawn to all the usages of your signature, overpowering the actual text.

You're also not allowed to use an unsubstituted template for your signature, as it's wasteful to call a template several times on a talk page just to display an image with some text, and if you change your sig in the future all talkpages you've ever edited will have to purge and update themselves. You need to use {{subst:User:Megadardery/sig}} instead (like I do) and ensure that the resulting code doesn't make too much of a mess in the page code when other people try to edit.

I hope this is better now.--egadardery (edits) 19:10, 19 August 2013 (EDT)

Yes that's much better, thanks. One tip: You can use spaces when linking to "User talk:"; you don't need to type it as "User_talk:". Toomai Glittershine The Pan-Galactic 19:14, 19 August 2013 (EDT)

Thanks, but I already know this one.--egadardery (edits) 08:29, 20 August 2013 (EDT)

You should probably make it so that your signature won't update every time you change it. In Preferences, go to your signature coding and type the word subst: (with no spaces) after the first two curly brackets. Awesome Cardinal 2000 10:08, 20 August 2013 (EDT)

Proposals?

If I want to propose something, what should I do? --egadardery (edits) 15:11, 18 August 2013 (EDT)

This. Conny 15:13, 18 August 2013 (EDT)

Thanks--egadardery (edits) 15:15, 18 August 2013 (EDT)

Really?

Don't abuse the eightball function of ChanServ like that, please. DoctorPain99 14:49, 3 September 2013 (EDT)

Brawl

You could play a few matches with me if you want. My code is on my page. Boo Buddy 15:16, 12 October 2013 (EDT)

Yeah, Sure. What about 17:00 PM GMT today?--egadardery (edits) 07:37, 13 October 2013 (EDT)

Sorry, not today. PM me on either MarioWiki chat or Smashwiki's IRC if you want to know when I'm available and I'll explain the rest. Boo Buddy 13:48, 13 October 2013 (EDT)

I'm on now if you like, what is your name on the IRC--egadardery (edits) 14:14, 15 October 2013 (EDT)

Sorry, I had problems in connecting with Brawl, and I'm going to school on Sunday. Sorry, our match must wait.--egadardery (edits) 17:01, 18 October 2013 (EDT)
