Welcome to Varnent's talk page on Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit

Note:

Posting notes: For the sake of keeping discussions together, unless you request otherwise, I will reply to your posts here and will also watch pages where I have posted myself and expect replies there. However, it maybe helpful to leave me a {{talkback}} template telling me you have replied. Keep content disputes off here. They belong to relevant articles' talk pages. Don't revert edits to this talk page, unless they're obvious vandalism (like blanking/malicious editing of other comments, etc). I'll deal with stupid/hate/spam messages myself. Please sign and date your entries by inserting ~~~~ at the end or by clicking the icon (or in monobook theme) in the edit toolbar. And don't forget, be polite, assume good faith, avoid personal attacks, and be welcoming Thank you! --Varnent
