| - | + | Thanks for the advice. When I write I tend to jot everything down then go back and correct my spelling. Usually this isn't a problem when I right on Word then transfer it over to wherever I am posting it online. Since this website is linked based and I'm kind of just throwing ideas as I go along, I plan on going back to correct spelling and grammar when I get a decent amount written through a couple of path choices. | |
I am still learning the site, I tried the tutorial and while it explains it well when it comes to computer terms I find it easier to experiment. I was clicking the Ab button on the tool bar to put the brackets, but I will start adding the * beforehand. Do you have any other pointers for someone new here? | I am still learning the site, I tried the tutorial and while it explains it well when it comes to computer terms I find it easier to experiment.

Please make sure to include the title of the story as a category on each page you post. If you don't know how to add categories, please review the Tutorial, especially Basic page format. --Dirty Me 15:06, 15 March 2014 (UTC)
You need to put options on pages, or else it is not a Create Your Own Adventure. If you are unsure what options you want to put, at least put a note so readers know you will add options later. Otherwise, the pages will be deleted. --Dirty Me 15:18, 15 March 2014 (UTC)
I notice you are writing alot. That is pretty good ^.^ Always nice to see people don't just write a couple pages, then never work on their story again. I have noticed though that there are many grammar errors. It happens. I have enough of my own issues. But, if I may recommend: I have found it is better to put it in Word or something, then run a grammar/spelling check. At least the most obvious mistakes are caught then.
I also notice you tend to make your links slightly different. It probably isn't a problem, I don't know, but I know the standard way is:
*[[Next path]]
*[[Different path]]
The * in front will make it appear with the outline sort of form.

Then it is more consistent. Just wanted to mention it. --Dirty Me 05:46, 19 March 2014 (UTC)
