''Apparently the Meteorological Service of Britain does it still differently and does not use automatic measurement but takes manual readings twice a day and creates the daily average by ( M a x + M i n ) / 2 {\displaystyle (Max+Min)/2} {\displaystyle (Max+Min)/2} and the argument is that comparison with observations from before the computer era must be made. | ''Apparently the Meteorological Service of Britain does it still differently and does not use automatic measurement but takes manual readings twice a day and creates the daily average by ( M a x + M i n ) / 2 {\displaystyle (Max+Min)/2} {\displaystyle (Max+Min)/2} and the argument is that comparison with observations from before the computer era must be made. | ||

Last two point because @sfws had that in the discussion starter. | |||
I am beginning to understand how the wiki works and that i am supposed to read the watch list. There should be a short instruction for new users! | I am beginning to understand how the wiki works and that i am supposed to read the watch list. There should be a short instruction for new users! | ||

As said before, the only administrator, on this Wiki, with good Wiki knowledge, is user [[User:saratogaWX|SaratogaWX]]. | |||
From my limited knowledge, here are some answers: | |||
*There should be a short instruction for new users! | |||
**Above and below the table on the [[Original Cumulus Wiki|original Main Page]], there are links to short instructions | |||

#is it possible to send a message if a watch page is talked about? | |||
#*On [[Help:Contents]], it says an email is sent telling you when an entry is saved. | |||
#*As administrator, I can see ''unwatched'' pages, but no more watching information | |||
#*As administrator, I can see your gmail account, but I cannot discover where you have added "Watch". | |||
#is it possible to send a message when a watched page is changed by somebody not yourself? | |||
#*On [[Help:Contents]], it says an email is sent telling you when your page has been edited. | |||
#how do I get the signature below this text | |||
#* Use multiple tilde <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki> to add you user name, or more tildes <nowiki>~~~~~</nowiki> to add date/time, you could have discovered that from links on the [[Original Cumulus Wiki|original Main Page]]; | |||
#**[[Help:Contents]] is linked above table, | |||
#**and [[How_you_can_contribute]] is linked below the table. | |||

Dear @sfws, your implicit assumption that if information is written somewhere it is also found and read, is incorrect. I do my best but reading Joyce's Ulysses has less links and sirens. | |||
However, thanks for the pointers. I don't receive emails when the pages are changed - e.g. this page which I definitely watch - and apparently that is not good so I'll contact SaratogaWX. | |||
