When I first signed up for wikipedia, I was TedErnst, but then somehow couldn't get signed in again using that name so became Tedernst and started editing without realizing what was up.  Now I'm attached to it.  Then, since this is also mediawiki, I stuck with the strange name.  I'll fix it out.  Thanks!

: Mark, I'm okay with whatever is going to happen here and don't need it to look any way, so please know that I love you very much and all my suggestions are just that, suggestions.  I'm here to help. :-)

: That said, Mediawiki has some really cool features that I think will be useful to use.  Notice how [[MarkDilley]] and [[User: MarkDilley]] are two different pages?  One is an article and the other is a user.  I believe it'll be cleaner to not have any people in the article namespace, the space that you want to be full of wikis.  When you make a comment that you'd like signed, you don't have to link to anything, you can just type 4 tildes, and it'll expand out with the datestamp and a link to your user page.  [[User:Tedernst|Tedernst]] 16:34, 18 Jan 2006 (EST)

* Ted I do not know how to redirect my page [[MarkDilley]] to user:MarkDilley, please do that if you can. I want the simplicity of wiking my name.
