Primer

To explain this archive, I’ve used two methods to archive material from my talk page, first the move procedure to archive the entire user talk page editing history. This creates a searchable edit history. Since there is apparently a 5000 edit limit on standard deletions (anything over that needs a Steward to delete!), I split the move-archive talk page into chunks of ~1500 edits each. This is in section User talk:Dreadstar archived edit history.
I’ve also utilized the Cut and paste procedure to create a set of archives of searchable text, split into certain periods of time and/or talk page size. This is in the Textual archives section below.
And yes, I do tend to archive quickly. I like to keep my fire engine clean, it's a clean machine; with perhaps a little OCD mixed in. :)
If you any questions or issues with this set up, please email me. Thanks! Dreadstar ☥ 23:13, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

These are split into ~1500 edit chunks to avoid running into certain WP limitations. Email me for further info if you have questions.
