Hi there everyone! I just wanted to let you know that I have enabled editnotices in the User: and User_talk: namespaces. To edit yours, go to: "User:YOURUSERNAME/Editnotice". Note the capital "E", it is important! If you have questions, feel free to ask me or anyone else around! Happy editing! -- Joe G. (Talk) 00:13, 27 October 2013 (UTC)

Noob Question: What is an editnoice??? :D -Benjozork (talk) 00:22, 27 October 2013 (UTC)

Hey, that's great news. I hope Dusti realizes that his old Editnotice is now working (and is now out of date, LOL). Also, is this only enabled locally on Meta, or globally?
