:Thanks. I think [[Template:Birth date and age]] doesn't quite work here (I couldn't get it to show the month name), but that might be okay because most infoboxes have a link to year pages anyway, and the BDA template would clobber that. Certainly no one will care what Clyde Cash's current age is, but I figure [[Template:Age]] will be handy for a couple pages that few people will remember to update. -[[User:CWCTime|CWCTime]] ([[User talk:CWCTime|talk]]) 18:01, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi there!

Welcome to CWCKI!

Welcome to CWCki! There's a lot to do around here because Chris never does anything himself. I hope you'll stay with us and make many improvements of your own!

Before you start, be sure to read A Quick Guide to CWCki. This will guide you through the dos and don'ts of editing the world's most accurate wiki. Be especially sure to read this if you consider Anonymous to be legion or if you've just come over from ED. Everything you know is wrong.
Recent changes is a great first stop, because you can see what other people are editing right this minute, and where you can help.
If you're looking for things to do, check out the priority listing for things that need to be done, or join a project.
If you haven't already, create a user page about yourself! If you do, we'll be able to know you better as a member of our community. Just be sure to check out the guidelines first.
Questions? Please read the FAQ first. Later, you can ask in the Community Portal or on the "discussion" page associated with each article, join the live chat in our IRC channel or post a message on my talk page!
Once again, welcome to CWCki!

Hey, I would have started to upload files from the recent leak yesterday, but my internet's been having some issues, so I couldn't get to it until today. I uploaded all files from the leak in full definition. Thanks for your efforts to keep the cwcki updated. Skyraider91 (talk) 14:13, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

Re: Problem with Special:ConfirmEmail

Sadly, I don't have access to this mechanical issues. You can ask Marvin on the forum for this. Alan Pardew (talk) 15:43, 9 July 2014 (UTC)

Re: Search/replace for cogsdev links?

I already contacted Marvin who is able to handle technical stuff on the CWCki about this. Thanks. Alan Pardew (talk) 03:01, 31 July 2014 (UTC)

Good work with the templates

I see you swiped some Wikipedia templates, which is very smart because it's out there and you don't need to reinvent the wheel to do something neat. Not sure if age template is useful in all cases, but it's probably good style. In any case, it's rare to find someone who actually bothers to do technical stuff with templates, like your idea with using a template to solve the gender issue, so it's good work on your part. Keep it up. --Champthom (talk) 17:49, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

I think Template:Birth date and age doesn't quite work here (I couldn't get it to show the month name), but that might be okay because most infoboxes have a link to year pages anyway, and the BDA template would clobber that.
