- Please leave a new message at the bottom of the page. I will reply here, so do watchlist this page. Any issue to do with an article should be discussed on its talk page; please do not email me regarding Wikipedia matters.
- Please do not address me using warning templates; these are optimised for new users and I don't appreciate being patronised when I have, under various aliases, been editing here since 22 May 2008 (and using this one since 7 March 2013). You may trout me instead. Any other templates are fine to use.
- Most discussion boards - AfD, ANI etc. - require that you notify me of any discussion I should be aware of - DON'T bother. Tag me with {{u|Launchballer}} on the page instead. I am aware that with some noticeboards it is considered bad practice to not do so, however please take this as me opting out. (Update January 2023; it appears we now have bots to do this instead so doubly don't bother.)
- I divide archives by year and then by every 100 posts. Any posts that require attention may be edited; do ping.
