User talk:Admiral Lex T.Kirk

Hi, Admiral * T.Kirk. We've been trying to contact you for some time now. We appreciate that you are contributing to Memory Alpha, but we ask you to do that in a way that is compatible with the Memory Alpha:Manual of Style. Please consider editing the article locally using a word processor, instead of making dozens of minor changes to the article, and try to integrate you additions into existing pages instead of simply exchanging the existing text for your own.

If you have any questions, you can ask them by adding them to the end of this page. Thanks. -- Cid Highwind 05:53, 6 Apr 2004 (PDT)

Making multiple edits
Hi Admiral Lex,

First, I should say that we really appreciate the effort that you're putting into your contributions to Memory Alpha... thanks! However, there's one small issue that I'd like to discuss with you. I've noticed that you've made repeated changes to certain pages like Hikaru Sulu within a short span of time. Memory Alpha is a WikiWiki web, which means that each and every edit that's made is preserved in its entirety. When you make multiple changes in such a short span of time, you're effectively doubling (or more) the amount of memory it takes to hold the article. I'd like to ask you to stop making such quickfire edits, and suggest that you make your changes in a local word processor first, then upload all your changes in one single edit. It'll be easier for both you and for Memory Alpha!

Thanks again for your contributions. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. -- Dan Carlson 19:58, 13 Apr 2004 (CET)
