These are deliberately lowercase, because they refer to the groups of the [[Series 33|Supreme Championship]]. If we wrote these group letters in uppercase, CQF/CSF would clash with [[Championship of Champions]] games, and GF would clash with Grand Final. -- [[User:Smjg|Smjg]] 16:23, 15 August 2009 (BST) | These are deliberately lowercase, because they refer to the groups of the [[Series 33|Supreme Championship]].

Whilst your enthusiasm is undoubted and very much appreciated, I've noticed that when you're editing a particular page, you have a habit of making many small changes and saving the page in between. Whilst this ensures that your work is not lost, working in this manner has the effect of clogging up the [[Special:Recentchanges|list of recent changes]] - at the last count, 43 of the 50 most recent edits belonged to you, though you've only actually edited five pages! | ||
| + | |||
| + | Don't worry - I'm not telling you off and you've not really done anything wrong. It's just harder for other editors to track the changes made to the Wiki when there are so many from one person. In future, when you are making a series of edits to one page and you want to see how they look, please don't press the 'Save page' button every time. Instead, if you press the 'Show preview' button in between smaller edits you can build them up into one big edit and just press the 'Save page' button once at the end. This will keep the page history clearer and easier to read and avoids upsetting other editors. | ||

Series 60
Thanks for your edits to Series 60, however you accidentally deleted all the categories, so I 'reverted' and added the scores myself. Don't worry too much, wiki-syntax is pretty complicated, see the links in blue above this message. Mglovesfun 09:40, 3 April 2009 (BST)
Supreme Championship games
Hi, I noticed that on some contestant pages you've been changing letters in the episode type column to uppercase.
These are deliberately lowercase, because they refer to the groups of the Supreme Championship. If we wrote these group letters in uppercase, CQF/CSF would clash with Championship of Champions games, and GF would clash with Grand Final. -- Smjg 16:23, 15 August 2009 (BST)
'Save page' vs. 'Show preview'
Hi Countdowner,
Thanks for your interest in and contributions to this Wiki. Whilst your enthusiasm is undoubted and very much appreciated, I've noticed that when you're editing a particular page, you have a habit of making many small changes and saving the page in between. Whilst this ensures that your work is not lost, working in this manner has the effect of clogging up the list of recent changes - at the last count, 43 of the 50 most recent edits belonged to you, though you've only actually edited five pages!
Don't worry - I'm not telling you off and you've not really done anything wrong. It's just harder for other editors to track the changes made to the Wiki when there are so many from one person. In future, when you are making a series of edits to one page and you want to see how they look, please don't press the 'Save page' button every time. Instead, if you press the 'Show preview' button in between smaller edits you can build them up into one big edit and just press the 'Save page' button once at the end. This will keep the page history clearer and easier to read and avoids upsetting other editors.
I hope I've explained this clearly. If not, please feel free to leave me a message on my talk page.
Best wishes, Chris 'Crispy' Philpot 23:01, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
