Hello, | Hello, | ||
It seems that you've created a bunch of loopy loops, which the wiki doesn't really like. I've fixed these and your guild page should now be using the [[:Template:GuildInfo|established template]]. I've removed the other templates only because these templates looked exactly like each other and seemed to be copies of the wiki's established GuildInfo template, so I'm assuming that you were just trying to get it to show up on your guild's page page (it was missing a space) and not trying to make a new template (which some guilds like to do). If this is not the case, talk to me here or on my talk page. Have fun! -[[User:Novaster|Novaster]] 01:54, 11 January 2015 (UTC) | It seems that you've created a bunch of loopy loops, which the wiki doesn't really like.

Hello, It seems that you've created a bunch of loopy loops, which the wiki doesn't really like. I've fixed these and your guild page should now be using the established template. I've removed the other templates only because these templates looked exactly like each other and seemed to be copies of the wiki's established GuildInfo template, so I'm assuming that you were just trying to get it to show up on your guild's page page (it was missing a space) and not trying to make a new template (which some guilds like to do).

- Sorry I'm kind of new on the wiki. I don't really know how to edit my stuff. I went to this thing here ->Help:Creating a guild page<-. I kinda skimmed it.
