EDIT: On a related note; you may want to check out Guild Wars 2 Wiki:Requests for API editorship so you can do these things too; they're pretty lenient on who gets permissions. Eearslya (talk) 00:07, 5 September 2015 (UTC)

I already thought about it but I am not sure if I should do that because I like to have one check over my edits because I make typing errors very often and do not find them afterwards. I will put that under consideration again, though. What I REALLY would like to have is a prominent reminder to sign my comments. :) --Nithanim (talk) 08:11, 5 September 2015 (UTC)
