I moved a couple of your other pages into your namespace. I'd also recommend you name the template just "skill box block" since it's shorter and still obvious what it's for. And use "duration" instead of "length" just because everything else does, so it'll be consistent. --Fyren 23:53, 9 February 2007 (CST)


 * OK, thanks. I've called the templates "skill box blocking", "skill box negate blocking", and "skill box blocked effect", and I'm using length instead of duration. Do you have any other sugggestions for Blocking skills quick reference, Negate blocking skills quick reference, and Blocked effect skills quick reference? I've noticed that some quick reference notes are very specific, while others summarize more. For example, Knockdown skills quick reference lists Signet of Judgment as "Foe and adjacent foes 15...63 holy damage", whereas Movement_speed__skills_quick_reference says Flame Djinn's Haste is "On cast, damages adjacent foes." Which way is better? I've been pretty specific with my notes so far, but I'm not sure what the "right" way to do things is. Nikalren 20:43, 10 February 2007 (CST)


 * It's kind of hard to get notes to look very consistent since there are so many different effects (especially conditional effects) across all the skills. Don't worry about consistency there too much and just try to keep it short and clear.  --Fyren 02:45, 11 February 2007 (CST)

How come this guy has been spamming edits and reverting them on the skill templates? --Gimmethegepgun 16:14, 10 February 2007 (CST)


 * I was adding quick reference data for skills related to blocking, and it took a few tries to get the information correct and consistent. With Template:Pure Strike, for example, I originally wrote a description of "+1...24 damage, unblockable if not using a stance", changed it to "+1...24 damage, cannot be blocked if not using a stance", and finally decided on "If you are not using a stance. +1...24 damage." The page may not look any different, but if you go to edit it you can see the template data that I was working on. Nikalren 20:43, 10 February 2007 (CST)
