User talk:Drj

Hello there, I would like to express a belated welcome to the 'pedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If you need any questions answered about the project then check out Wikipedia:Help or drop me a line. BTW, there is a case sensitive bug in the current wikipedia software that prevents the "Contributions of" link to work for user names that start with a lowercase letter (like "drj" of "maveric149") -- the software insists on capitalizing the first letter for this link, but user names are case-sensitive (unlike the first letter of regular articles). Here is your link (http://www.wikipedia.com/wiki/special:contributions&theuser=drj). Nice work on the Helicopter and the Compiler optimization articles. Cheers! --maveric149

Hey, Drj -- I was looking at the edit you made on Mountain Unicycling and wanted to point out that "i.e.," essentially means "that is"...if you changed it for stylistic reasons, fair enough, but I thought I would point it out just in case you thought "i.e.," was being used inappropriately. I don't care enough to change it back :) -- Paul Drye
Thanks for the note. I changed it stylistic reasons. I'm sure it was at least suggested in a wikipedia style guide somewhere. I can't be bothered to find said guide right now. I think that the "no i.e." and "no e.g." style should be adopted in any case. Most professional publications follow the same guidelines. --drj
Oh, I see you are a professional writer. That makes my comments rather embarrassing. Never mind. --drj
Your welcome :-) -- Wikipedians/Alex
