User talk:Xymph

Welcome
Thrilled to have you contributing here. I have given you "editor" status so that your changes will automatically go live w/o waiting for review, as I trust and respect your long experience in the community in regards to the "deep history" from the 90's. I've done my best trying to document that stuff, but a first-person perspective is always going to be superior. Happy editing ;) --Quasar (talk) 11:32, 29 January 2016 (CST)

Re: Welcome
Thanks, that's very kind, as was your presidential reference when creating my steward page. :-) I have some prior experience editing a simpler wiki (TrackMania) but am new here, so you may still want to keep an eye on my edits for a while, in case I make an accidental faux pas against content policy, style, or somesuch.

I'm not sure how long I'll be active here, but for the time being I won't run out of pages to read (and perhaps contribute to). ;)

Btw, is it possible to tie this Xymph page to my Frans_P._de_Vries one somehow? --Xymph (talk) 13:21, 29 January 2016 (CST)


 * Your person article is considered the encyclopedic one about you, while User:Xymph is free for you to use to describe yourself in whatever terms you like, without restrictions on content above our terms of service (you might see User:Quasar versus James Haley (Quasar) to see the difference). If you would like for your person article to be named Frans P. de Vries (Xymph), like most other person pages, I can do that as a move and leave a redirect in place. At the time I created your article I wasn't aware that you had a handle. --Quasar (talk) 13:31, 29 January 2016 (CST)


 * Ok, starting to get the hang of these discussion pages. Yes, then please rename my person page, thanks. --Xymph (talk) 16:15, 29 January 2016 (CST)
