User talk:Rotfl Mao

are you the anon i have been talking to in the qr lists? -- Xeon 06:10, 19 January 2007 (CST)
 * Yeah. I've just added the icons descriptions in come qr's if you don't mind. Also qr's for inflict poison, deep wound, cripple and burning are incomplete, i'll try to add a little to the templates. Shoot me if anything looks wrong ^.^;; --Rotfl Mao 06:13, 19 January 2007 (CST)
 * No i wont, im just glad someone else is helping me with them. Yeah, those condition articles are half done, i finished the rest and included them to their respective pages, if you do them, have a look what i did at Bleeding in the sources section compared to the Burning article. Also you are right to add those icon descriptions to the top. Have fun, im just creating a perl script atm so it translates category listings to skill qr format and under their correct profession and attribute. Like Category:Bow Attacks will be put into Stance skills quick reference format, not sure how it will go but we will see. -- Xeon 06:20, 19 January 2007 (CST)
 * [[Image:Exhaustion.png]] - This spell causes Exhaustion.
 * [[Image:Upkeep.png]] Maintenance cost
 * [[Image:LeadAttack required.png]] Lead Attack required
 * [[Image:OffHand required.png]] Off-Hand Attack required
 * [[Image:DualAttack required.png]] Dual Attack required

If there are more then 4 on the list use a table like what Assassin skills quick reference uses. -- Xeon 06:24, 19 January 2007 (CST)
 * Thanks, handy thing --Rotfl Mao 06:26, 19 January 2007 (CST)
 * Just another quick thing, take a look at the way i formated Inflict bleeding skills quick reference it would be better if they were all formated the same way. -- Xeon 06:41, 19 January 2007 (CST)
 * hmmm. I think writing exact value, say, +10..27 damage instead of +damage is better from a informational point of view. Anyway i'll try to fill them up so they can be tydied later --Rotfl Mao 07:00, 19 January 2007 (CST)
 * Yeah maybe, it can be changed later easy either way, with the target line, saying Hexed foe, i like that. perls documentation sucks for parsing html files -_- -- Xeon 07:03, 19 January 2007 (CST)

hi
just dropping into your talk page to say hi -- Xeon 03:35, 21 January 2007 (CST)
 * Dont worry about doing ones in categories, like the touch one. Takes me 10 seconds to compile those now. You can use the script if you want, its here User:Xeon/scripts. -- Xeon 03:46, 21 January 2007 (CST)
 * oh, right, i saw the scripts effect in new pages so i thought that you had a problem with those touch skills or something... Done the regen/degen too but anyway, is it possible to script it using php? I though about it yesterday and basically what people do is edit some article or create one, submit it, and the script on the server grants them some kind of basic access. Now, could this be done with php script ? say those touch skills, get a script to read all proffession skill pages, similar to that:
 * mysql_connect ("server","user","password");
 * mysql_select_db ("database");
 * $query = "select skills from thatadress where skill_type Like 'Touch skill' ";
 * $result = mysql_query($query);
 * and then fetch the data to the quick-reference-creating-part who'll do some basic mysql inserting or just dump it into a file so you can copypaste it into the page... Just thinking out loud over here since i don't know the server/user/pass values and probably won't know them (security reasons?). --Rotfl Mao 04:46, 21 January 2007 (CST)
 * Cant use php on the server, i was looking for a way to dynamically update the page using templates but then you have other skills that are ment to be on the page by are not in the categories. see talk:Item spell skills quick reference for an example. -- Xeon 05:02, 21 January 2007 (CST)
 * Oh and i didnt do the touch category cause it was already 5am at the time, also the health regen and degen pages need to be changed to the other qr format. -- Xeon 05:03, 21 January 2007 (CST)

Links
Since I noticed you do it a few times, make internal links by doing article name, not [http://url text]. --Fyren 06:17, 21 January 2007 (CST)
 * k, sorry bout that, i've just figured that it'd be better if there was a small link instead of : Health degeneration skills quick reference (i mean, in some cases, lack of space etc.). I'll use the proper ones.--Rotfl Mao 06:46, 21 January 2007 (CST)
 * You can shorten links by using the pipe character, this QR list gives you this QR list. --Rainith 06:50, 21 January 2007 (CST)
 * aaaaaaaaahhhh..... thanks, didn;t know about that! *notes* --Rotfl Mao 06:51, 21 January 2007 (CST)
