Welcome
Hi there mate, you've spread your contributions out haven't you! Just a note, for quest articles gold is wikified (ie Gold). Check out Style and formatting/Quests if you're in doubt, my user page has lots of helpful stuff too if you're interested. Thanks. --Xasxas256 22:33, 31 October 2006 (CST)


 * Yes, returning to GW after an unplanned 8 month break. In the issue of the gold link, there seems to be two "competing standards" as have noted a large majority of quest reward sections show gold as simply "50 gold", while a few have as you suggest "50 Gold ", is the plan to eventually convert references??

 * Ah dang, must be for Nightfall quests, I've gone through every Factions quest, they should all be: Gold and I think the Proph quests are pretty good too. It's been hard to keep up with it all unfortunately, I'm going through the Nightfall quests now but it'll take me a while. It should always be the same as Style and formatting/Quests though. Anyway, welcome back, hope you're enjoying it ;) --Xasxas256 22:56, 31 October 2006 (CST)


 * Heya there, just another quick note, in an article you generally only wikifying something once, usually the first occurance. For quests however if a term occurs in both the Obtained From and Summary sections, I'll only wikify it in the Obtained From section. Sorry to be a bother but there's always little quirks of wiki editing and this is one of them! :) --Xasxas256 01:30, 1 November 2006 (CST)


 * That's cool, no bother. Rather know how we want to standardise the entries, feel free to "undo" any edits as needed.  Maybe this quirk needs to be noted in the Style and Formatting/Quests page. --Wolfie 02:51, 1 November 2006 (CST)


 * THe S&F guide has been updated now, I should have done it a while ago to be honest but anyway, it's done now! --Xasxas256 17:13, 1 November 2006 (CST)


 * An extra little note, we've been using " " to represent when dialogue refers to the character, as mentioned in the S&F guide Xas referenced. Not a biggie, but in keeping things consistant thought you should know. :-) Keep up the good edits! --Zampani 14:18, 6 November 2006 (CST)


 * For the record, I think " " is more meaningful and reads better, but ok, the point is to standardise. Thanks for the note (better to get in early, before I do too much "damage" :D ) --Wolfie 19:52, 6 November 2006 (CST)


 * Sorry to get in late here but I quite like it reads well to me. Problem is that because I've seen so many edits here I generally know how to interperate how things are written. But I do like to hang out on people's talk pages to get their perspective. For better or worse I'm never going to have that new GuildWiki user experiance. I guess that's why and S&F debates are often quite long, because anything implemented there will effect a lot of articles and will last for a long time. As for versus it's probably such a small thing that it's not worth looking over 500 odd quest articles to update it in my opinion. I can't wait for the new server to go in, it's just so painfully slow to look over Category:Nightfall quests at the moment! --Xasxas256 16:50, 7 November 2006 (CST)


 * Yeah, the diff between is minimal, it is something to correct while tidying up / adding to a quest record, so it's good that Zampani said something (the S&F can at times be open to interpretation, so worthwhile for senior editors to note if a discrepancy is creeping in). As for a faster Wiki, yes please! Have pretty much stopped adding / editing at the moment because it's so painfully slow, so whatever the server-gods can do to make it better would be useful. :) --Wolfie 18:21, 7 November 2006 (CST)
