GuildWiki talk:Bot tasks/NPC Subpages

i feel like you guys are coming up with tasks just to play with your bots. &mdash;♥ Jedi ♥ Rogue ♥ 08:16, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
 * User talk:Entropy she asked me to help her out with her list, so I made this page. -- Shadowphoenix  08:18, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh yeah also, play? wtf? I am sitting here running my bot for this news thing and it really isnt fun.... Quite boring actually, but I know it is gonna help clean up stuff so that is why I am doing it.  -- Shadowphoenix  08:25, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Jedi makes a good point. We all want to play with our bots when we first get it :p. You dont have to look at your bot running as you run it, you can play gw/talk on msn/contribute normally- I do it loads ;p &mdash;[[Image:MaySig.png]] Warw/Wick 10:38, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Approved?
It has been 7 days since I posted this and was wondering if an administrator could approve or decline this... Thanks -- Shadowphoenix  15:01, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Can you generalize this to categorize all of the various NPC subpages? See Non-orphaned_articles for a list.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 15:43, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I could, but it would have to be done over the course of a few days most likely. Or if we could get PhoenixBot and Maybot to work on it, it would be done in half the time. -- Shadowphoenix  15:51, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Ok so I have added more info and change it a bit, is it now ready to be approved? -- Shadowphoenix  16:38, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
 * NPC subpages seems too general. What are the different kinds of subpages we have? You don't have to do them all the same. &mdash;♥ Jedi ♥ Rogue ♥ 18:23, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Collector, weapons, skills, consumables, and merchants -- Shadowphoenix  18:31, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
 * So how is the current version? -- Shadowphoenix  04:48, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Meh, I felt it needed a rewrite. So I gave it one.  It still needs the exact AWB rules added (I still haven't been able to use it, so I'm not sure how that looks).  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 05:23, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * What do you mean by "exact rules"? -- Shadowphoenix  14:15, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I was paraphrasing from memory. On Bot tasks, it says, "Bots that are run using AutoWikiBrowser should state the parameters used to generate the list of articles."  So I guess that's covered by saying it gets the list from the file or from the userpage.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 14:29, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * lol, yeah I was confused when you said that.. :P -- Shadowphoenix  14:41, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * What parameters are you using to generate the list, then? &mdash;♥ Jedi ♥ Rogue ♥ 17:51, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Categorization
You forgot a noinclude tag in your to-be-added code. Without that, all collector pages that include a subpage will have the subpage category as well.Entrea  [Talk]  01:49, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
