I don't mean to make you feel less special, but I make it a habit to welcome all new members. I want to foster a friendly, inviting atmosphere on the site. Also, when responding to someone who posts on your talk page, it it best to respond on ''their'' talk page. When you do that, it gives the person a notification that they have a new message. Putting it on your own talk page with the original topic doesn't alert them, so they could easily miss it. Luckily I have to check every new edit, so I saw your response. Anyway welcome again, and I hope you enjoy the stories (and maybe even add to them if you are so inclined). --[[User:Elerneron|Elerneron]] ([[User talk:Elerneron|talk]]) 01:29, 30 March 2016 (CEST) | I don't mean to make you feel less special, but I make it a habit to welcome all new members.

To add a page to the watchlist, all you need to do is click the star next to <code>View History</code> at the top of the page. Unfortunately, this won't tell you when a new page was added to a story, so it isn't much help for how we are using the software. As of right now, there isn't a reliable way to get notified of new pages added to a story. Using the <code>Recent Changes</code> link on the left will let you see what pages have been added and/or modified over a period that you specify. Since pages are required to have the story's name in their title (though many, like myself, shorten it to an abbreviation) you can see what stories have had pages added. This is how I kept my eye on things back when I was just a user. Sorry there isn't a better alternative. --[[User:Elerneron|Elerneron]] ([[User talk:Elerneron|talk]]) 10:18, 31 March 2016 (CEST) | |||
