 Welcome!
Hi, Truculent! Welcome, and thanks for joining NetHackWiki!

The How to help and Style guide pages are excellent starting points.
Special:Recentchanges is a great first stop, because you can see what other people are editing right this minute, and where you can help.
Questions? Need help?  You can ask at the Community Portal, the forum, or on the discussion page associated with each article! Just remember to sign those posts with four tildes: ~~~~. That will expand to create a signature.
You can put {{NAOplayer|NAO player account}} on your user page to link to your NAO player account. Capitalization matters.
We are really happy to have you here, and look forward to working with you!
This is an automated greeting.

About internal links
Hi, welcome to NetHackWiki!
One of your recent edits has got the spam filter a bit concerned. The problem seems to be that you're adding a number of "external" links; they're actually internal, but because you're using external link syntax the spam filter can't tell that. Also, marking a link as external when it's internal is only going to confuse readers.
Instead of writing a link like this, specifying the URL:

[http://nethackwiki.com/wiki/Grid_bug grid bug]

use internal link syntax, with double brackets:

[[grid bug]]

There are variations of this if you want the link target and text to be different, e.g. [[grid bug]]s produces grid bugs and [[grid bug|{{purple|x}}]] produces x (i.e. you can specify anything you like after the | in a link).
You can also use internal link syntax for links to Wikipedia: [[wikipedia:NetHack]] produces wikipedia:NetHack, [[wikipedia:NetHack|NetHack]] produces NetHack.
Incidentally, although the edit didn't go through, its text was saved, in case you don't have a copy.
Thanks for contributing! Ais523 (talk) 00:39, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
