Your User Page
Sorry if im doing this wrong, im new as of about 30 minutes ago. I was looking at your main page, of characters, and was wondering on how I can get a template or something to help make it look very similar to how you have it set-up. If I could get your help, id appreciate it. X Jstn X 16:56, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The simplest way is to just copy my page, then modify it however you want. One thing to look out for is wherever you see double curly braces around something, like , that's calling a template.  If it's calling a template in my userspace, like  , you'll need to change it to your userspace instead.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 18:06, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for updating the skill costs

 * Skill points are used to buy skills from skill trainers. Each skill costs one skill point and a certain amount of money. The first skill purchased costs 50, and the price increases gradually up to a cap of 1 on the 20th skill.

I've read four different game guide explanation of the costs and they are all horribly confusing. This is the first one I've read that makes a simple thing read simply. Nice job.

Also, thanks for the other re-wording (esp. since you fixed the #s; I could only copy what was there before). Thanks! --Tennessee Ernie Ford 23:22, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

ohai (Sysop question)
Hi there :)

For the last while I've been trying to learn more about this site and was wondering something. Would you be able to try to help me grasp the level of understanding of coding Sysops are required to have?

I'll understand if you can't be bothered or don't have the time, just thought you'd be the best one to ask. --> Suicidal Tendencie 12:58, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

Hiya, help?
Hey ishmael, since you're a [PRO]grammer, I ask you: we have some problems over at Template:Armor art gallery trying to implement the "without helmet" thing. I tried my best, but there's a really bitchy issue with the line-breaks. Can you look at my revisions and try to retrace and see what I did there? Before 10th August it was almost right but with that line-break issue I tinkered around for over an hour, just to split the images up in the end. However Kali doesn't like it, so maybe you find a way to fix it? -- Taki Fujiko  04:29, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure what the reason was for the other edits on the page, but you broke the Clipping parameter at some point (you changed it to display for some reason), and the changes you made to the "Profile" text aren't working.  To make this easy, I'm going to roll back all your changes to un-break both of those, then add back only the "nohelmet" stuff, then I'll try to see what's wrong.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 04:56, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh, and now I think I see the problem - you were adding two new table cells outside of the table you wanted them in. Of course that's going to look goofy.  I'll have it fixed in a jiffy.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 04:59, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Transmog Tonic
Actually, I've seen it too. Right after using the tonic, sometimes (but not always) your character will do one /clap. There's also something similar in the Costume Brawl. When entering the outpost or battle, your character will perform one emote over and over (different for each profession and gender) until you move for the first time. I think it has something to do with humanoid disguises in general. You never notice it with other tonics because, well, they have no emotes. --Macros 15:11, October 27, 2009 (UTC)
 * Come to think of it, the emote Livia does in the Costume Brawl is /clap, too... suspicious. --Macros 15:17, October 27, 2009 (UTC)
 * Hm. Like I said in the summary, I've never noticed it myself.  I'll watch more closely today - I'm expecting the next quest to become available, and we'll probably have to use tonics to enter the UW again, so I'll have plenty of chances to see it.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 15:27, October 27, 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, I just saw it on one of my wife's characters. Seems to be pretty rare, though.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 16:55, October 27, 2009 (UTC)

 * As I said in the summary, that was my intent. Either repeat the single Skeleton capture 3x, or use a solo farm to get 3 at once.  I had actually written that before I knew it was repeatable, thus I couldn't have intended that to be relevant for completing the quest more than once.

Glovebox
User_talk:RoseOfKali/Mesmer_gloves: can I take you up on that template offer? :) I've gotten around to taking a bunch of the missing screens, working on formatting them now and will upload them as they're ready. RoseOfKali 15:30, November 16, 2009 (UTC)
 * Will do. Someone will have to create a "No Image Available" for gloves, my image manipulation skills aren't good enough for that.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 15:59, November 16, 2009 (UTC)
 * Since this is being templated now, I standardized the image names to match the existing conventions. The changes I made were "armor" &rarr; "Armor" and "gloves dyed" &rarr; "dyed gloves".  I moved all existing images that I could find, including the ones you just uploaded.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 17:42, November 16, 2009 (UTC)

 * We changed it for articles but left it on the images, since there would've been a whole fudge-ton (prolly close to 1,000) images to re-upload. Now that we can simply move images it wouldn't be nearly as annoying to do, but there isn't really a need for it.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 21:00, November 16, 2009 (UTC)
 * Understood. TY. :) RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.png]] 21:41, November 16, 2009 (UTC)

RoF stubby
The reason it was still a stub was because technically it's a stub since there's no NF trainer listed. It's better in that respect than a few other skills, though, because it IS actually possible to figure out where it is (and inevitably find out it's Kamadan probably anyway :P ) by having a Prophecies character get monk primary or secondary and not do the Protection Prayers quest, then go to Kamadan. There's a few that ARE physically impossible to get though, should be in the Category:Need Factions Skill Trainer or Category:Need Nightfall Skill Trainer --Gimmethegepgun 01:49, November 17, 2009 (UTC)


 * Ah, right, I keep forgetting about those. I've always thought that they shouldn't be called stubs, though, as they are actually nearly complete articles (a stub is an article with very minimal content that needs to be expanded).  This is more of a "needs research" situation.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 02:03, November 17, 2009 (UTC)


 * I agree. For simplicity, especially since essentially every skill, if not every skill, is beyond a stub state, we should just change the text of to say it needs research or something --Gimmethegepgun 02:11, November 17, 2009 (UTC)
 * Makes sense, imo. RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.png]] 02:13, November 17, 2009 (UTC)

Wondering if you can do some bot magic.
So you know how for like four years we've been reverting people who add Ruby and Sapphire to creature drop pages because every creature in the game has a chance of dropping them? Well apparently, they don't. See here.

So I was wondering if you could whip up a script that would give us a list of every article that's got Ruby (Rubies) or Sapphire in the edit summaries somewhere, just as a starting point for adding them in. 20:44, November 17, 2009 (UTC)


 * Interesting. Well, there goes that bit of conventional wisdom, *POOF* =O
 * Wouldn't it be better to use GWW:Category:Drops sapphire and GWW:Category:Drops ruby as starting points? It seems like they've been documenting this for a while already, so those are probably pretty complete.  I don't know how much we'd really want to trust the edit histories here in any case, given how likely it is that at least a few people would've added sapphire/ruby to random monsters just to be silly.  But if you insist, I'll see what I can do - Mendel's better at dealing with the wiki dumps, although I haven't seen him being very active lately.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 21:19, November 17, 2009 (UTC)
 * I think that since no one's gonna go and look at a specific monster page in order to figure out if it drops Rubies/Sapphires, we should just make a list of what CAN drop it in the respective pages. Even though it's not even "most", it would still be the most expansive category in GW history, so it wouldn't do much good for finding something anyway. Just rob them of the list from the categories and put it into a list that's actually helpful :P --Gimmethegepgun 00:25, November 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * I suppose those are both better ideas than mine, I just wanted to do something special and hi-tech. [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 01:09, November 18, 2009 (UTC)


 * @Gimme: True, but who's going to look at a specific monster to see if it drops, say, linen? Yet we still list that, and all other crafting materials, on individual monster pages, so I don't see why we shouldn't list rubies/sapphires.  As far as being "the most expansive category in GW history," I actually looked at the history of both the ruby and sapphire articles to see what people had listed in the past (before we replaced the list with an "everything can drop this" note).  With only a couple exceptions, everything that had been listed is now listed in GWW's drop categories.  I'm starting to realize that these gems aren't nearly as widespread as everyone thought they were.
 * @Felix: *patpat*, 's okay. I would've started working on that immediately if it weren't for the strong likelihood of false positives.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 01:42, November 18, 2009 (UTC)

 * No problem. Incidentally, I can program in C++, which I know isn't too different form C#, and I would love to dig deeper into gw.exe to figure stuff out.  I actually had the idea a few years ago to try and work up a chat logging program for GW (mostly for my wife, who has (at last count) 17 folders full of screenshots logging all of her RP sessions), but never got anywhere with it.  So if you're still recruiting for the project, I'd love to help.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 03:20, November 27, 2009 (UTC)


 * Sure. Incidentally, I lost my original code that I was working with when I lost a HDD.  I only remembered it when that prick put something up.  Maybe we can do it in C++, like a portable Qt frontend for server settings and whatnot.  Considering Qt comes out-of-the-box with its own networking libraries, which I have yet to dig into, our dependence on external libraries and whatnot should be nil...which is good, because Qt does not make importing external libraries easy, the only real flaw I've found with it.

Show/Hide boxes
To use S/H boxes on a wiki, do you need some specific extension, a line of code somewhere (I presume the latter at least, since I saw div classes)? Asking for a totally unrelated wiki :P --- -- (contribs)  &emsp;(talk)  17:52, December 7, 2009 (UTC)
 * It's a combination of CSS and Javascript. The specific implementation we use is NavFrame, but apparently it's been replaced with collapsible tables.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 18:01, December 7, 2009 (UTC)


 * The major difference is that div boxes aren't tables, but rather floating boxes, right? --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG]] -- (contribs) &emsp;(talk)  18:22, December 7, 2009 (UTC)


 * Basically, yes. Divs are much more flexible than tables, which is why the current web design trend is to avoid tables whenever possible, only using them when necessary to display tabular data.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 19:04, December 9, 2009 (UTC)

,
 * For future reference, I believe you can use things like &amp;nbsp;,

to add space. You can also use tags. Finally, I believe you can also incorporate padding/margins after the table's last row from within the table, e.g. . (I am hoping that the peanut gallery will erupt with erudite explanations as to which of the above is preferable.)  &mdash; Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 19:41, December 10, 2009 (UTC)

 * Geez, so much fuss for a little format issue. The only one of those would've worked there is the  template (which, for future reference, should always be subst:'ed).  All of the others are in-line fixes and would just insert whitespace into the text around the floating object, but not change the text's relation to the float in any way.
 * But the simplest fix was to simply turn the floating object into a non-floating one by removing the "align" attribute from the table, which was totally unnecessary in the first place. &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 20:01, December 10, 2009 (UTC)


 * Erm? My apologies...I wasn't commenting on the particular issue (since there is no link above, I didn't know to which change Nazzy was referring). I figured I would throw out lots of possible ways to add space after a table...and hope to learn something about what works better.

New to wiki editting; several questions
&mdash;The preceding unsigned comment was added by No man (contribs).
 * 1) concerning the tags <tt> </tt>
 * 2) *I'm guessing any text between the tags is omitted (not transcluded) when the template is called, but appears on the template's page?
 * 3) *Is this useful beyond template pages?
 * 4) concerning the tags <tt> </tt>
 * 5) *Text between these tags is the text that is transcluded when the template is called, but does not appear on the template's page?
 * 6) *Is this useful beyond template pages?
 * 7) concerning the parser template <tt> {#if}> </tt>
 * 8) *The parameters would be #if|condition|(condition true)statements|(condition false)statements
 * 9) *I actually stumbled upon this one looking for templates, with <tt> </tt>, and fixed it, I think. In that template, I found the location of the pipe within <tt>  </tt> a bit strange. Would <tt> | </tt> have been possible instead?
 * 10) I found a few categories with no existing pages added to my userpage after I added a few user boxes.
 * 11) *What would it take to make these category pages show a listing of all users with the [[category:]] code on their page, the way existing category pages do?
 * 12) Do you mind if I use a few of your userboxes?


 * Correct, anything within &lt;noinclude> appears as normal on the source page, but does not appear when the page is transcluded.
 * Correct, anything within &lt;includeonly> does not appear on the source page, but only when the page is transcluded.
 * One more tag is &lt;onlyinclude>, which is sort of the converse of &lt;noinclude>. If a page has an &lt;onlyinclude> section, then that is the only section that will be transcluded; it's as if everything else were wrapped in &lt;noinclude>.
 * These can be used anywhere you want to restrict what parts of a page are included somewhere else, not just in templates. We actually do quite a bit of transclusion between mainspace articles here - the Title overview is a good example.
 * See Translucion on the MediaWiki wiki for more info.
 * Basically. I like to think of it as  .  For this parser function, the condition is not a boolean true/false, it is a test for "emptyness", generally used to test for the presence of a parameter.
 * A pipe after a parameter name is used to set a default value.   would insert the value "5" if the template was called without a value for the parameter "parm1".  #if statements usually use this form with a null default value, , in order to test whether a value was passed for that parameter.
 * See Mediawikiwiki:Help:Parser functions in templates for a better explanation than I can give.
 * A redlink category will still display the list of pages in that category - this is generated automatically by the wiki software. The redlink simply means that a category page has not been created yet.  The text of a category page displays above the list of pages in the category.  Compare Category:Users/Monster to Category:Users/Male.
 * Sure, go ahead. :)

Thanks for adding the timer to expire the previous map on the traveler last week. I would edit it to revert to an "unknown" style page - but not sure I could accomplish that satisfactorily. Thought it would be nice to carry through on the idea for the entire page instead of just removing the map to help keep people from just editing an old map back?

 * On a wiki, the point of a redlink is to signify that something is unknown or doesn't exist; there's no real need to do anything special to point that out. The extra code required to display a "location unknown" image if the new image exists, while still making it link to the upload page for the new week's image, would be very ugly.  We do that for the armor galleries in order to (hopefully) inspire people to update the galleries, but for this single image, which usually gets updated within a couple hours anyway, it's not necessary.
 * The problem with the map image was when someone would (with good intentions) upload the new week's map over the old one without changing the file name. This isn't a problem for the text bits, as they're all part of the main article and get overwritten every week anyway.  There's nothing wrong with leaving them like they are until Nick's new location is found, and it will only be "wrong" for a couple hours in any case.
 * Now, when we discover that Nick is indeed on a cycle (52 weeks seems most likely, but whatever), then it would make sense to parse out all the location/dialogue info to a subpage that we could transclude each week's info from with a similar "timer" system. I think we can leave it as-is until then.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 17:08, December 28, 2009 (UTC)
 * Back when he erroneously appeared in Arbor Bay, Linsey slipped that he wasn't supposed to be there for at least a year, and that's why there was no dialogue in place (it was blank). This implies that the cycle is more than a year. :) RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.png]] 18:28, December 28, 2009 (UTC)

 * A week late, but follow-up on this: I was able to use AWB for both actions, although I couldn't go full auto since 1) it could only append the navbox to the end of the article (had to manually move it above the categories), and 2) the various articles didn't have consistent formatting for the infobox code (variety in spacing, mostly), which meant I could only give it find/replace on the  link itself, and that still didn't guarantee that it would get the one in the infobox.
 * Doing this made me realize how inconsistent the style/formatting is on our explorable area articles. I guess that's as good a candidate as any for my next big improvement project, but I'm gonna need a lot of people's input on how best to standardize said formatting.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 23:55, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

 * The asterisks in your username are screwing up the regular expression (in regex, * is a special character that means "zero or more of the preceding character"). I don't know if there's any way to modify what goes into that regex, so you'll probably have to make a sockpuppet account without asterisks in order to use AWB.

Yes, I know it's been near on 3 months already, but I think nobody's told you yet. :) Also, you're still listed as "semi-active" on GW:AI. -- ◄mendel► 00:55, January 11, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks. ^_^ It started because, once I found out about them, I wanted to make sure we had all the new Halloween stuff documented properly (and before GWW, although I think I lost that race most of the time).  I'm more active in GW overall at this time of year, with three big events close together - Halloween, Wintersday, Canthan New Year - but without the new skills/quests, I probably wouldn't have done much on the wiki.
 * After Halloween was over, I continued because... well, mostly because I'm unemployed and don't have anything else to do. Patrolling and editing GWiki gave me an escape from all the stress and anxiety I've been under during my job search - although those have also found their way through into some of my comments over the past few months, for which I apologize.
 * I've resisted switching myself over to fully active because I know my current spurt won't survive for very long after I find a new job. I had hoped to be employed before Christmas, and I was very close to getting an offer, but nothing worked out.  Now, though, I've got an interview on Wednesday and two other solid leads through referrals, and I'm certain I'll be employed by the end of the month.  Of course, it all depends on how demanding the job will be and whether I have to commute or not, but more than likely I won't have nearly as much time for the wiki anymore.  I'll probably be able to patrol RC once a day or something like that, maybe find time for some bigger projects on the weekends.  So thanks for the reminder, but I think it will be best to leave it at "semi-active" and consider my current activity as an (admittedly long-lived) anomaly.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 01:34, January 11, 2010 (UTC)

tonic forms
While I'm thinking about it, could you set up a bot to correct all the templates, like Sinister Golem Form to have all the consumables listed? Currently they vary in what's included. For most, it will be the normal tonic, everlasting version, and Mysterious. Oh, and why are some of them stubs, anyway? If this can't be botted, I'll do it manually later. Thx. :) RoseOfKali 16:57, January 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * I doubt I can fully automate that, but I can at least do it semi-auto in AWB. They're stubs because when I made the first few, I wasn't sure what all info would be needed on them.  People just copy-pasted the whole page when making a new one, including the stub tag.  I'm thinking we should move any info about the form itself (like what emotes you use or the /sit + /stand = death animation) from the tonic page to the form page.  That should be enough to de-stub them.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 17:36, January 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * Ok. Also about the infobox colors. Most of them are "lightblue" but some of the everlasting are a custom green, others are a different green, and it's inconsistent. What should it be? RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.png]] 17:39, January 13, 2010 (UTC)

 * We don't normally do any special formatting for gold items, e.g. Club of a Thousand Bears (weapon). I'd leave them with the standard lightblue.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 19:24, January 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * Ah, ok, so either green or everything else. RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.png]] 19:30, January 13, 2010 (UTC)

moved-to and -from linebreak and clear
I don't understand your latest edit; I mean, there should be a line break someplace, so rewriting it with &lt;includeonly> probably makes sense; but putting a clear:both in it seems unexpected, and it means that unexpected results would happen if I used it near the top of my talk page, where the archive index forms a sort of "sidebar". Why did you do it? --mendel @ 80.228.201.25 18:29, January 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * I added the linebreak because it was annoying always having to remember to put an extra blank line after that template every time I used it. The template itself should take care of fitting itself into the surrounding text.  As for the clear part... I dunno? >.>  It seemed like a good idea, I guess.  I hadn't considered situations like that.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 18:33, January 19, 2010 (UTC)
