Notes

[edit]
  • Note 1 = If you see an "" next to an article name, that means that I am particularly fond of how it turned out. They are also my best works! :)
  • Note 2 = If you see an "" next to an article name, that means that I created the article and nominated it for Did You Know. If you want to see the hook, then click on the article and go to its' talk page.
  • Note 3 = If you see an "" next to an article name, that means that the page has over 5,000 monthly pageviews (meaning that it is among my most-viewed works).
  • Note 4 = If you see an "" next to an article name, it means that it was published through Articles For Creation, which simply means that it was proofread and accepted to Wikipedia by others.
  • Note 4 = If you see an "" next to an article name, that means that the article my best-ever created page. It will be tossed around periodically, but whatever article name this icon is next to, is special to me as it is my most notable work. There can only be one on the list as well.
  • Note 5 = if you see an "" next to an article name, that means that the content is graphic in nature. I've added this because I don't want clueless people stumbling across an extremely graphic article.

This template was kindly stolen borrowed and inspired from Johnson524's userpage, thank you Johnson! :D
