Thank you for your message in my guestbook. For future reference, big messages like yours are probably best suited for my user page; guestbooks are more for small messages. No big deal though!
P.S. Wrapping your text in “nowiki” blocks will prevent your signature from correctly displaying or any other markup from working; it’s not the most ideal, haha. I’ve fixed the formatting for you, though. Rambley(talk)18:12, 4 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Great! Thanks for fixing that. I'm truly glad to receive any criticisms. I try to follow instructions, but I guess I'm getting too old to keep learning all the various formatting rules on all the various platforms I spill my words on. Like the proverbial frog in the pot, some don't seem to notice the changing rules. But they slowly do, as years go by.
No worries! Everyone has to start somewhere. Even I still have to wrap my head around all the templates and markup around here. You’ll get the hang of it eventually! Rambley(talk)19:22, 4 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oh and please do feel free to move all or part of the guestbook message to your user page. I think a person's pages should show up however one thinks is best. Fairthomas (talk) 19:25, 4 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
