	I'm curious, by the way, as to why you split the story "Catastrophe..." into two pages. I notice that each one contains exactly one fewer section header than the number that would cause Shifti to automatically create a table of contents, was it perhaps to avoid having a table of contents appear? If so, there's a better way to do it; simply include the magic word "<nowiki>__NOTOC__</nowiki>" anywhere in the page (near the top where the table of contents would normally appear is probably best) and a table of contents won't be generated.

	:I'm sorry that I didn't respond sooner. Actually, there is no particular reason why I broke the story up the way I did. I didn't want to place everything on the same page because I will be adding chapters later. I guess one could have done it differently. I just figured that since I have six chapters, two sets of three is a nice even division. [[User:Whiteflame\|Whiteflame]] 12:31, 31 December 2007 (EST)		:I'm sorry that I didn't respond sooner.

			==Template:My stories==

			Hi, just thought I should drop a note here since I imagine most authors won't be regularly checking [[Help:Templates]] for updates. I've finally added a template that I should have created long ago, a tag to put on userpages to facilitate linking to your personal story category; [[Template:My stories]]. If you want (it's entirely optional), just stick this code at the top of your userpage to create a standardized little box with a direct link in it: <nowiki>{{my stories}}</nowiki>.

			There. Not only did I create a "Non-TF" category, but you've now got the "Non-TF poems" subcategory entirely to yourself at the moment. That way they're still categorized as poems but you don't have to worry about the main poem category getting "cluttered" :) [[User:Bryan\|Bryan]] 01:15, 27 December 2007 (EST)

	:TF is such a broad category, and I think it sometimes becomes difficult to classify certain works. In respect to this, A number of my poems make reference to transformation or are told from another animals perspective. The question is, "what exactly defines a work of transformation?" Is it a change of body, mind, or the notions of a different feeling or thought? I'm just getting philosophical again.

One other bit of wiki magic that might be useful in similar situations; if you replace an article's text with "#REDIRECT [[Lying in Bed One Night in June]]", then whenever someone visits that article they'll be bounced straight over to the redirected-to page.
