editQuite happy to adopt - which timezone are you in and what are your articles of interest. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 08:48, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
- Ok added the offer on your userpage. Im in the UK so there should be a bit of overlap for a short period at the end of my working day and at the start of yours. We'll see how it goes. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 16:48, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

Proof that a horse has, in fact, an infinite number of legs
edit- A horse has four legs
- It has forelegs at the front
- It has two legs at the rear
- Four plus two is six, it has six legs
- Six is an odd number of legs for a horse
- Four is an even number
- The only number which is both even and odd is infinity
- Therefore: a horse has an infinite number of legs

editDifficult ask, I have no idea what you know and what you don't. Ok Templates
Templates are a namespace and means of including common text and markup. Firstly there is a namespace called "Templates" (with and associated "Template talk" namespace. These are designed for the storage and maintenance of common code that is likely to be used repeatedly throughout wikipedia or in certain areas of it. There are numbers of specialist types of templates, navigation templates (typically used towards the end of articles), infoboxes (typically used to the top right of article giving key information about the subject) and tag templates (use near context to say something about that context (i.e. {{wikify}}, {{expand}}, {{copyright}} etc).
You can include the template but surrounding it by {{ and }} braces. It naturally goes to look for the content in the "Template" namespace unless you explicitly name somewhere else. This causes the content to be "included" or rather transcluded at the time the article is loaded by the browser. Or you can cause to load to happen once only at page edit type by using the code form {{subst:templatename}}.
Any more questions just ask me. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 08:52, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
