Welcome

Hello there! I am Robert the Wiki's current organizer and oversight. Due to your recent contributions I have decided to grant you administrative privileges which should aid in your article contributions. I personally want to thank you for coming along and helping with the project, as I myself can get quite stressed with the workload between the compiler and IDE augmentations.

You seemed to be a tad bit confused with the function documentation format as I could tell with ds_grid_add_grid_region, so I thought I could offer you some help. For data types you should create a new column to the tables such as with draw_background, or simply Parameter !! Data Type !! Description I would also like to let you know that most data types can be found in the common headers folder for most of the major systems, for instance with graphics also here is the file containing the data structure definitions, also don't worry about placing the WIP template on the top of all function pages, I avoided that to not scare people away from editing so they could very easily edit the function docs and also becuase I do regular maintenance using AWB with User:FrogotoBot

Also, avoid explicitly mentioning functions as being GameMaker or LateralGM related, as that can get overly technical since LGM is really a separate project which can still be used for just GameMaker IDE on Linux, unless of course it is necessary to mention that for instance a function behaves differently in ENIGMA & LateralGM. You can also now modify our MediaWiki:Geshi.css and MediaWiki:Vector.css style sheets with Admin privs as I have tried to avoid hard coding things for instance how parameter names are italic in the function doc tables. I am still in the process of updating the constants articles to use the same table template though.

Ohhh and Actions have all already been documented, there is no need for Drag and drop, unless of course for maybe a separate tutorial.

That said, thank you for the contributions, and your welcome to stay as long as you like! :D RobertBColton 00:04, 20 August 2013 (MDT)

Thanks for the upgrade; I will change the functions and delete Drag and drop. We can always revive it if we ever want an extreme-beginner level tutorial.--X 03:46, 20 August 2013 (MDT)
Son of a gun, we have this bug with administrators being downgraded and it just happened to you. It used to happen to me all the time and they got so tired of it I was just made a bureaucrat. I am going to file a bug report on the websites repository. For now, just leave me a list of things you need deleted or moved and I can handle it for you. RobertBColton 10:05, 20 August 2013 (MDT)
No problem, Drag and drop was the only one that needed deleting/moving for now. Also just noticed that the message below the editing box redlinks to ENIGMA:Copyrights.
