		+
		+	Is it possible to create a redirect to wikipedia inside a wikia article? I tried this but it did not work (please see this http://sailormoon.wikia.com/wiki/Moon_Kingdom) also, I am creating a template (http://sailormoon.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Monster-of-the-day) but I get the "Template loop detected" error message. What is going on?

		+	I recently had a namespace added to the Thief wiki, but was unaware of the '''subpages''' option until asked in email if I wanted it. So I think somewhere in the "How do I request a custom namespace?" section, a "subpages in this namespace" explanation should be added.
		+
		+	And perhaps item 4 should read "...and specify whether it should be '''content''', '''searchable''' and/or have '''subpages'''. --[[User:Sxerks\|Sxerks]] 00:20, November 21, 2009 (UTC)
