			:{{re\|NottNott}} careful - thinking can be bad for you ;-) I was trying to decide whether to talk a bit about how (a) your original prescription might have been over-corrected, and (b) only having steps of 0.25 meant the error bars are fairly large, so it could be anything from 2m to 8m (and therefore not to get too hung up on it being exactly 4m or anything like that. It was really just to get a ball-park number.[[User:Divenal\|Divenal]] ([[User talk:Divenal\|talk]]) 16:24, 22 June 2020 (UTC)

			== EndMyopia Wiki: Launched! ==

			Thanks to everyone who has done a terrific job on getting the wiki up to scratch. Definitely a team effort, and I think it's paid off quite nicely. Always more to be done, but the basics look pretty taken care of. Wiki's looking good. We're on the front page of the main site, it's been promoted in Facebook and there should be a video coming out at some point.

			[[EM:admin guide\|Admin specific]]: the next two to four weeks will be a good barometer of how much [[EM:vandalism\|vandalism]] can be expected over time, and whether things need to be changed or not. I'm heavily in favour of keeping it 'create an account, make an edit', but if need be there can be additional restrictions.

			Try to check in on [[Special:RecentChanges]] every once in a while to see if anything unsavoury is happening. I might be overestimating the amount of vandalism we'll get, we must wait and see. Don't be afraid to [[Special:Block\|block users]] if necessary.

			Cheers! {{User:NottNott/sig}} 08:55, 20 June 2020 (UTC)
