Your story [[John]] had some problems. First off, you can't easily display your story with the traditional indented first line. This is because any blank space in front of a paragraph is a special signal to the system to make it preformatted. The reason it doesn't support this is that it has been found that on electronic formats putting a line break between paragraphs is a more readable format than indenting the first like. That's why you'll find that most stories online use the block format. If still you want to indent the first line, I can arrange a work-around for you. You also forgot to put the category on the page. You really MUST remember to put the category on the page. It is VERY important to do so. I have corrected the problems. If you need any help, or want me to make a work around to indent the first line of your paragraphs, contact me on my talk page. --[[User:Elerneron|Elerneron]] ([[User talk:Elerneron|talk]]) 20:51, 13 January 2016 (CET) | Your story [[John]] had some problems.

No problem. You should are allowed to have your story appear any way that you wish. The problem is a technical issue with the way the wiki software works. I'll make a way to work around the issue so that the story can look the way you want it to. I didn't want to do so before I made sure that it is something that you definitely wanted to do. What I am going to do is add a blank image that we can use to force the first line to indent. Give me a bit, and I'll make the changes to the story to try to get it back to where you want it to be. If I miss anything, just use the same method I do to fix the indents. Sorry about the technical issue. --[[User:Elerneron|Elerneron]] ([[User talk:Elerneron|talk]]) 06:27, 15 January 2016 (CET) | |||
Okay, I've made the image and edited the story. If you want to increase the indent, just add more <code><nowiki>[[File:Indent.png]]</nowiki></code> codes in front of the paragraph. Each one will move the first line by 10 pixels. I used 3 on each line, so they are currently all offset by 15 pixels. --[[User:Elerneron|Elerneron]] ([[User talk:Elerneron|talk]]) 06:37, 15 January 2016 (CET) | |||

Just letting you know I took the liberty, since your editing code did say errors only, I corrected some very minor errors in your Jana and your John stories, mind you I did not change the story in anyway just fixed the very minor English grammar and missing letter type errors. | |||

Welcome to the site. I hope you enjoy your stay. If you have any questions, or need any help please feel free to contact me on my Talk Page. Feel free to remove this welcome notice if it bothers you.--Elerneron (talk) 11:38, 4 October 2015 (CEST)
Thanks for adding your story Jana to the site. You forgot to add the category to the page as described HERE. Categorizing the stories is very important to keep the stories organized. I have taken the liberty of adding the category to your story, but please try to do it yourself in the future. --Elerneron (talk) 05:50, 28 October 2015 (CET)
You don not need to, nor should you, add the category of your story to the story index pages. They just need to be on your story pages. Also, the errors permission level includes spelling, so you don't need to include spelling if you list it as errors. --Elerneron (talk) 21:54, 29 October 2015 (CET)
