User talk:He Who Wanders

A couple of recommendations

You might want to place a few words about yourself on your User page - helps people get to know you, and your name will display in blue rather than red, which makes you feel like you're one of the gang.

Also, as Reboot mentioned elsewhere, try to get in the habit of "signing" your discussion contributions with "~~~~" (no quotes when you actually use it). This automatically adds your name and a time/date stamp, and really helps keep track of who is saying what.

Another useful habit is to indent your conversations with each successive reply. Do this by adding a colon (":") at the beginning of a paragraph. Indent a bit more with "::", even more with ":::", and so on. Using the same method with "*" instead of ":" adds bullets, and "#" creates numbered lists.

Typing two single quotes before and after something italicizes the text and three single quotes makes it bold. Five makes it italic and bold (while four is just 'bold with an extra single quote'). For a quick list of helpful hints, see this cheatsheet.
