: 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.
: Oh, and I just remembered, media wiki also has a talk page connected with every other page, in every namespace.  So if I want to leave a comment for you, I don't leave it on your user page, but on your talk page: [[User talk: MarkDilley]] and you'll get a notification (I'm pretty sure) that you have a new message.
