Latest revision as of 14:57, 11 March 2010
Thanks for the help you've been giving lately, it's greatly appreciated!
Thought I'd check on something also; is it okay to quote or near-quote revision notes when I don't know how a function works, as I did with batch_close()? Should I give credit, as I did on that page, or is it implicit that the ultimate source of information may be said logs? Whatever you & V are most comfortable with is fine by me, but if I can save the clutter of including such attributions on a page, it wouldn't hurt.
It would probably also be nice to have a prominently linked-to "Without these mafia devs we wouldn't be here" type of page, I'd think.
Any other thoughts / comments are appreciated.
Thanks! --StDoodle 14:54, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
