	Hey Dwedit. I see the start of something great here; finally, a central but open repository for Animutation wisdom. And finally, maybe n00bs will stop asking "What's the song from Wizard Power?" on the mailing list! Or at least we'll have an RTFM-like excuse to dismiss them. Good work, in any case.		Hey Dwedit.

		+	See [[User talk:Mudi\|this comment]]. Also, I'm in the midst of some significant wiki structure updates (renaming "foo Filmography" categories to "Animutations starring foo"/"Animutations featuring foo" to distinguish between character and prop, and using the templates {{tl\|character\|Character Name}} and {{tl\|prop\|Prop Name}} on animutation pages so nobody will ever have to fill in those categories again), so it will at some point become necessary to delete a '''lot''' of old category pages (several hundred) which might be better to automate than to do manually (and for which I have a script, in case you're interested). --[[User:Quietust\|Quietust]] 13:48, 22 October 2007 (PDT)
