== [[Template:Wikivoyage]], edit summaries and HotCat ==
Hi - I was just wondering the reason for [http://wikiindex.org/index.php?title=Template:Wikitravel&diff=172934&oldid=172931 this edit]?  I'm aware that removing spaces either side of hyphens/dashes is an American method, and is often found in Wikipedia - but it doesn;t reflect international English (and also makes it difficult, if not impossible for machine translators to correctly translate).  I trust you are aware we don't have to follow the Wikipedia Manual of Style here on WikiIndex - we want to reach out to an international audience!
Can I also ask that you try to remember completing the edit summary before saving edits, please.  Edit summaries are important for those who track the wiki activity via the Recent changes.
I also noticed you are using something called [[HotCat]] - is that a new extension installed somewhere?  Can you link me to it so I can look at it please?  Best regards [[User:Hoof Hearted|Sean, aka <small>Hoof Hearted</small>]] • <sub>[[:Category:Active administrators of this wiki|Admin]]</sub> • <small>[[User talk:Hoof Hearted|talk2HH]]</small> 02:50, 24 October 2013 (UTC)

welcome! TedErnst | talk 12:44, 7 August 2006 (EDT)

Message from my userpage

Welcome Justin!

We have a tradition of either redirecting this page to your namespace in the main article space, or leaving it. Two examples, my login is my name, so it shows in recent changes, and redirects to the main namespace or this example. This is a discussion in process, let me know what you think! Nice to have you here. Best, MarkDilley (oh, btw, I am a Hoosier by birth, Indianapolis also, although I moved to SE MI early on)

Hi Justin, can you check out, contribute if you want - WikiIndex:Admin_Notes#October_2010_Upgrade_Thoughts - best, MarkDilley

message re: upgrade path & moves

Hello, please check out WikiIndex:NewLogoDecision and WikiIndex:Spring 2011 Upgrade Path. Also, I am moving some of your move edits back to the main namespace - a couple of them are WikiIdeas and I think fit with what WikiIndex was envisioned. Not a steadfast rule, please discuss if you would like. Best, MarkDilley

Congratulations

For your new admin access :) --YiFei | talk 10:43, 12 October 2013 (UTC)

Template:Wikivoyage, edit summaries and HotCat

Hi - I was just wondering the reason for this edit? I'm aware that removing spaces either side of hyphens/dashes is an American method, and is often found in Wikipedia - but it doesn;t reflect international English (and also makes it difficult, if not impossible for machine translators to correctly translate). I trust you are aware we don't have to follow the Wikipedia Manual of Style here on WikiIndex - we want to reach out to an international audience!

Can I also ask that you try to remember completing the edit summary before saving edits, please. Edit summaries are important for those who track the wiki activity via the Recent changes.

I also noticed you are using something called HotCat - is that a new extension installed somewhere? Can you link me to it so I can look at it please? Best regards Sean, aka Hoof HeartedAdmintalk2HH 02:50, 24 October 2013 (UTC)
