Spirit Area-of-Effect
Hey PanSola, I'm gathering you don't agree with my adding a more obvious link to the Spirit AoEs on thier articles? What's your objection? --Rain Over Pebbles 10:20, 10 April 2006 (CDT)

OK, I missed that you also made a link out of "range" on the pages. I'd still argue that something additional needs to be done- it's not obvious that clicking on "range" will take the user to information about that specific spirit's range, whereas with links like "nearby" or "in the area" it is. --Rain Over Pebbles 10:24, 10 April 2006 (CDT)


 * How about wikify "its range" and link to range, would that be better? -PanSola 10:26, 10 April 2006 (CDT)


 * See responce to that above :) Sorry, did two edits quickly. --Rain Over Pebbles 10:28, 10 April 2006 (CDT)
 * Um, the second edit doesn't answer the question of whether wikifying its range to link to range would be clearer. -PanSola 10:29, 10 April 2006 (CDT)


 * You're right; that'll teach me to get ahead of myself in responding. Sorry about that. *ponder* It's definately better. It's not quite as explicitly spelled out as I'd like.. "its range" isn't quite as direct as "nearby", but I suppose it does the job. If someone down the line disagrees, I guess they'll try to edit it and the issue can be readdressed. I can fix it if ya like. --Rain Over Pebbles 10:39, 10 April 2006 (CDT)
 * Up to you (-: -PanSola 10:40, 10 April 2006 (CDT)


 * Ok, I'll clean it up, then :) Just linking "its range" definately has more finesse, I'll grant that. Thanks PanSola. --Rain Over Pebbles 10:43, 10 April 2006 (CDT)

Image redirects
Heh, I noticed that image redirect thing also. I'm waiting for all the skill icons to be loaded before I let Stabbot redirect all the skill icons to the skill pages. &mdash; Stabber (talk) 17:41, 10 April 2006 (CDT)
 * Hehe, all this after I found the hack to make images clicable d-: -PanSola 17:42, 10 April 2006 (CDT)

Skill cats
Please let me finish my round of edits first! We will be stepping on each other's toes otherwise. &mdash; Stabber (talk) 20:24, 10 April 2006 (CDT)
 * I'm just testing something. Only going to be playing with top level and not removing anyhing. -PanSola 20:25, 10 April 2006 (CDT)

New Progression
What's going on with the new progression templates? I thought we were moving away from the "lots of little templates" and towards the "all encompassing templates". The new Progression Top/Main/Bottom (especially Bottom) seems to be going back towards the old way of doing things (old beast boxes/item boxes/skill boxes/etc...). --Rainith 14:42, 11 April 2006 (CDT)
 * I didn't realize we were moving away from the "lots of little templates", and I don't consider 3 as being a lot. The old beast box etc were EXCESSIVE amoutns of little templates, as opposed to simply being little templates.  Anyways, my main motivation for splitting up the progression into 3 parts is because unlike Template:Progression, I can't easily upgrade the Template:Progression2,Progression3,Progression4,Progression5,Progression6,Progression7,Progression8,Progression9 and Progression10 to scale from 0 to 20 w/o editing individual articles that use them.  So since we will have to edit the articles to scale to 20 anyways, might as well switch to a more modularized system which could potentially save us some long-term trouble.
 * I am against excessive use of lots of little templates. However, when modularization makes sense, I support its use, especially if it avoids "lots of all encompassing templates". -PanSola 14:46, 11 April 2006 (CDT)

Dark pact
Will this not upload? I wondered if you'd forgotten it or forgot to put the tag on it Image:Dark Pact.jpg Skuld  00:41, 12 April 2006 (CDT)
 * I don't think this message was meant for me...
 * It's simply a missing image because Skills by Campaign doesn't list Dark Pact!!!! OMG WHO HAXXORED THAT PAGE?! &mdash; Stabber (talk) 02:28, 12 April 2006 (CDT)

Just a heads up
Dunno if you're following User talk:Savio or not, but there is an extended discussion of damage and damage types there, and as the damage article is mostly your creation... &mdash; Stabber (talk) 17:03, 12 April 2006 (CDT)

Speaking in Tongues
I like the language boxes that you appropriated from wikipedia, but the links in them don't work because they use the wikipedia namespace which is also how mediawiki directs stuff to wikipedia. My guess is that to make the links work you'll have to change them to use the full URL of the page. i.e. instead of near-native use near-native. --Rainith 17:50, 12 April 2006 (CDT)


 * or Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Babel/Levels &mdash; Stabber (talk) 17:51, 12 April 2006 (CDT)
 * Ironically, the english link is the only one that doesn't work, becaouse I forgot to double wikipedia it. -PanSola 17:59, 12 April 2006 (CDT)
