Edit tools
[edit]Hi user:Viking Pacific. Hope you don't mind me starting your user page (you can delete it all and redesign your user page). I thought these edit tools might be helpful. I copied them a couple of weeks ago from user:Nurg's page, for myself to use, and they're very handy for citations. I don't think Nurg will mind me copying them to you. You can delete it all or put it on a sub-page. Teine Savaii (talk) 04:35, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
