Newbie Warning

edit

With almost all of the edits I do, I'm trying something new (except for anti-vandalism work). Leave me a message at my talk page if I did something wrong, and oh yeah, don't bite me or do.

Even though I'm probably not considered a new user anymore, I still have no clue what I'm doing most of the time. I'm bound to make lots of mistakes, some I may realize and fix myself, others may slip through. If I do make a mistake (especially if I'm reverting one of your edits), compose a nice, neutral, non-accusatory message on my talk page, and I'll take a look.

Username Origin

edit

For the curious, my username was originally designed to be a play on words from the common generic error message "Please try again later" used on a lot of websites, even though the solution is usually a refresh and trying whatever you were trying to do again. It is mostly a relic of the old days of computing where all you could (or knew how to) do was just try again later. Now, most well-designed websites are providing more specific error messages to help the increasingly technical user troubleshoot.
