Do not split Blessings like that..
Please stop. Do not split blessings like collector info. There is like 20 of them and they are displayed in like 7-10 articles, it's not worth it. Please keep things simple. --Karlos 04:05, 23 May 2006 (CDT)


 * Hehe, I put things on hold after the first blessing, because I guessed that you'd object. :)
 * As for "split blessings like collector info", do you mean the category or the article? --Tetris L [[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L block]] 04:43, 23 May 2006 (CDT)
 * I thought we agreed to split them by Gods, as opposed to splitting into individual blessings. - 05:32, 23 May 2006 (CDT)
 * Well, I entend to do both, kinda, without causing redundancy. Let me explain how I intend to proceed:
 * There will be one "module" for each blessing (for example Dwayna/Blessings/Aura of Light). Each module will have a direct link for convenient editing. The code won't be too confusing for newbies. (Well, it's a table, and table code is always a bit confusing for newbies.)
 * These modules will be used in the following articles:
 * One article for each Blessing, for example Aura of Light
 * One summary module of all blessings for one god, for example Dwayna/Blessings. These summary module will again be used in two places:
 * Each in the article about the respective god, for example Dwayna
 * All in the article about Blessing.
 * This means the info about Aura of Light will be accessible in 3 places (Aura of Light, Dwayna and Blessing), without actual redundancy. I think this is a good way to handle this. As for the work being "worth it", I'm willing to do it, so let that be my problem. --Tetris L [[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L block]] 05:45, 23 May 2006 (CDT)
 * Remember a column for Campaign, assuming the new blessings aren't available in Prophecies. - 05:55, 23 May 2006 (CDT)
 * That shouldn't be necessary, considering the "old" blessings aren't blessings per definition. So a general note that blessings are not available in the prophecies camapign should do.
 * In any case I'll give Karlos a chance to reply before I proceed. --Tetris L [[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L block]] 06:37, 23 May 2006 (CDT)
 * Think for the future, what if chapter 3 has additional blessings Skuld  07:25, 23 May 2006 (CDT)
 * I don't expect that C3 will have different blessings. I'd rather not make provisions for potential changes that we don't have any indication for yet. --Tetris L [[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L block]] 07:43, 23 May 2006 (CDT)
 * As an alternative, I could do this slightly more simple: I could skip the module and reformat the blessing articles such that I can include them directly. --Tetris L [[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L block]] 09:28, 23 May 2006 (CDT)


 * The design is fine EXCEPT for the modules. Do not use modules, it's unnecessary. The list of blessings will show up in 2 places. Not a big deal. Modularization IS a big deal. So:
 * Article for each blessing.
 * List them all under blessings.
 * List the specific ones of each god under the God's page.
 * Simple. --Karlos 21:26, 23 May 2006 (CDT)


 * Modules aren't a big deal to me, but that's a matter of a seperate discussion (which, unfortunatly, isn't concluded yet). I can avoid the use of modules and include each blessing article directly, with a bit of code. Shouldn't be too complicated. I'll start with Dwayna (only 4 blessings), and then put the thing on hold again for everybody to look at it and comment. --[[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L]] 00:23, 24 May 2006 (CDT)

"Kuunavang is immune to interrupts"
I don't think that's true. I have interrupted her before. &mdash; Stabber &#x270d; 02:11, 7 June 2006 (CDT)
 * What skill did you use? Several people have reported that her spells as well as her other skills cannot be interrupted by Mesmer or Ranger interrupts. Infact I can't confirm myself, but I assumed that she is immune to at least some interrupts, just like the Lich Lord. --[[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L]] 02:17, 7 June 2006 (CDT)
 * Her Spores/Scales with a ranger. Don't remember which skill(s) exactly. It was on top of the Harvest Temple, so her interruptibility might be higher there. Or it might have been stealth changed because this was back on April 29 and I haven't taken any other interrupting classes that far into the game. &mdash; Stabber &#x270d; 02:25, 7 June 2006 (CDT)
 * Ranger pug party member of mine interrupted Corrupted Dragon Scales yesterday (w/ her in flight), although only once out of like, fifteen times. Either he blew hard or there's some super weirdness of death :P --Tinarto [[Image:Tinarto-gold-Monk-icon-small.png]] 02:34, 7 June 2006 (CDT)

Price Check
I've written a comment on Talk:Price check in response to your edit, I hope I didn't get too carried away with it! --Xasxas256 08:20, 7 June 2006 (CDT)

For your consideration
I should have posted this here last night, but I was tired and I forgot. :( Please check this out and pass along any comments in the discussion:

Don't know if you're at all interested in this, but I'd appreciate your feedback here about this. --Rainith 15:55, 15 June 2006 (CDT)

Request you look at a talk page
Can you take a look at the article and related talk page for Slash command? As I mention in the talk page, I can see potential reasoning for it; but I added the delete tag as the article was re-created by the original author the day after Rainith deleted it. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 16:23, 15 June 2006 (CDT)

Alternative prof combo table format
I have seen you proposed an alternative table format for the list of profession combos at Dervish. This is maybe a good idea thinking of the growing number of combinations. But what do you think of using a navbox like the following instead? (Colours and details are, of course, open to dispute.) --MRA 05:09, 21 July 2006 (CDT)

GuildWiki.de
Do you know anything about GuildWiki.de? Are they simply translating our content, or are they building up seperately, from scratch? Do we have any affiliation with them beyond that they were forked from us? &mdash;Tanaric 10:18, 8 August 2006 (CDT)

 * No need to be sorry. That's what the "minor edit" tickbox is there for. I'm glad when people use it, especially when they do a crusade and spam the Recent Changes. :) It was just bad coincedence. --[[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L]] 11:01, 9 August 2006 (CDT)

email!
Hey Tetris, I sent you an email through the wiki yesterday. I'm not sure if you've received it or not. If so could you reply, if not could you let me know? :) Thanks  &lt;LordBiro&gt;/&lt;Talk&gt; 03:00, 15 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Sorry, I'm having a problem with Outlook lately. I checked my inbox through html now and found your mail. I'll reply later today. --[[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L]] 04:18, 15 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Ah ha! Just as I knew it, there is a secret hi-tech organised underground network for admins who's treachery know no bounds, only now am I beginning to scratch the surface to reveal the corrupt rotten core within! :P Sorry I just recently read The Da Vinci Code and watched Underworld 2 and had to satisfy my paranoia a little! ;) --Xasxas256 04:56, 15 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Xasxas: I'm not an admin. You see, the plot involves non-admins, but only if they are aliens from planet K-PAX, just like most of the sysops. :p --[[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L]] 05:02, 15 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Oh see this is why the whole admin this is a load of bullocks (I don't know what movie I saw to inspire me to use that world). I have been here for so long and yet I still forgot that you're not one. Pretty much I regard admins the same as people who've been around and know the score (which is usually what our admins are anyway) and you're one of those people. That's it I'm joining the alliance and sending you an email! --Xasxas256 05:21, 15 August 2006 (CDT)


 * lol :) I like you xasxas!  &lt;LordBiro&gt;/&lt;Talk&gt; 07:43, 15 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Who doesn't? We all love him. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (talk) 07:58, 15 August 2006 (CDT)
 * I'm not sure where this is all coming from but hey I ain't complaining! Free love for all! There's something I don't often type, in fact I'm not even sure what the emote for a heart is...it's <} isn't it? No that looks more like an ice cream. Oh well free Ice Creams for all! One for LordBiro, <} one for Gem <} and one for Tetris L <} for putting up with me! --Xasxas256 08:53, 15 August 2006 (CDT)
 * The emote for a heart is <3. :) You invented the ice cream! --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (talk) 09:16, 15 August 2006 (CDT)
 * You don't need an emote when you've got an icon :P After giving it some thought I think <) is a better ice cream than <} the second one looks kind of errr melted...but still choc full of love! --Xasxas256 09:30, 15 August 2006 (CDT)
 * I always thought <3 means kiss (pursed lips)?! --[[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L]] 09:42, 15 August 2006 (CDT)
 * No, it's a heart. <3 :) --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (talk) 09:47, 15 August 2006 (CDT)
 * I thought it meant "less than three", but then, I wouldn't know. I'm a mean and ruthless automaton, operating only on cold machine-logic. --Black Ark 10:28, 15 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Well looky-looky. Getting too short, so I expanded this again. I just want to say to Xasxas about bullocks. Have you watched V for Vendetta lately? That could be your inspiration. And according to Xasxas, I may not actually be an admin. I've only been here 8 months. :P Maybe after 4 more months, I'll get a present. I hope it's a Mini-Gravewit, that'll go for some platinum I am sure. :D -Gares 10:36, 15 August 2006 (CDT)

 * Gares, you should check MiniMe.com. --[[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L]] 13:47, 15 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Ugggh Guinness, any time you have a beer with your meal and the beer is more filling than the food, you know something is not quite right! I think perhaps the bullocks thing came from me looking up some soccer info, the Premier League starts very soon, Toon FTW! Or maybe it's the fact the The Ashes starts in 100 days, that's going to be awesome! I actually looked up Guy Fawkes on WP recently, apparently in the past we used to celebrate Guy Fawkes Night in Australia although that was the first I'd heard about that. I know my old man used to blow stuff up a lot but I don't think that it was for any special occasion! If I had a mini me, he'd be fetching me Asahi Super Dry, you don't want a beer that fills you up, you want a beer the leaves you thirstier than when you started! But I've got another month and a half till I get a miniature, come on mini-Stabber so I can have an ever multiplying pet army! :D And so guys, that's my story! --Xasxas256 19:30, 15 August 2006 (CDT)
 * I don't know if I wanted a beer from a brewery the locals call the "golden turd". O.o Nothing is better than a warm guinness and no food, kills the taste. Jack on the rocks is another one of my favorites and quite easy to make.
 * My partying days are long gone. No more waking up from a night at the club, eat a bowl of cereal with beer in it because we have no milk, get more beer at the store, head to the tailgating lot for the football game, forget the game because they don't let you drink in the stadium, wait till the game is over, then head back to the club when it opens. Yes, that kind of day happened on more than one occasion. My alma mater wasn't voted top 10 party schools by Playboy for nothing. ;) -Gares 21:37, 15 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Any more disparaging comments regarding Guinness and I'm entering kill-mode. --Black Ark 02:13, 16 August 2006 (CDT)

Quick access links
re: Talk:Main_Page/editcopy, I know it's not where you wanted them, but for now I've created a new Quick access links and added a link to them on the navigation box to the left. Once I had tilted to campaign box on its side to allow for scalability, I really wasn't sure how to work it into the Main Page. We can still look at options for that if you feel strongly that the quick access links should be at that level; but at least they're now available and only one click away wherever the user navigates to on the site. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 10:46, 26 August 2006 (CDT)

Skreech..
Yo, why do you want to subcategorize "Skree" as species? They are harpies by virtue of the blessing and by virtue of collectable drops. We may end up cutting harpies into subspecies, but I doubt it. Skree and Blee (the next harpy sub-species) are like Dragon Lily and Dragon Moss, lower version noob-island version vs higher-level version.

The griffon issue is like the Ice Golem issue. If it's proven by EoE that they do not trigger damage on other harpies, then we'll make their species Griffon and their Category Harpy. Right now, there is no reason to believe so as they trigger the blessing and they drop the same collectable drop. Either way, we won't invent a new category just for them. --Karlos 01:14, 29 September 2006 (CDT)


 * I've started to explain in Talk:Harpy some time ago. The discussion should be continued there.
 * Frankly, I don't understand yet what "Skree" is. Is it a species or an "organization"? Is it a super-species of harpies, or a sub-species? The name of the blessing and the collectable drops implied to me that it's a SUPER-category of harpies, not a sub-category. I wasn't aware of theses Blee harpies, I didn't proceed very far during the preview. If these Blee harpies exist then Blee harpies and Skree harpies are sub-species of harpies. But at the same time Skree harpies are a sub-category of Skree, the other sub-category being Skree griffons. It's a matrix with harpies/griffons on one axis and Skree/Blee/etc on the other axis.
 * But again, let's continue in Talk:Harpy to clarify all this. --[[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L]] 01:50, 29 September 2006 (CDT)

Template stuff, from Pan's talk
Two problems: You need a colon in front (" { {:User:Tetris L...") and you need to end with braces ("}}") and not a table ending ("|}"). There's already a template that does what you're trying to do, I think: Template:TyrianMissionProgression. --Fyren 04:00, 16 October 2006 (CDT)
 * I figured it out the same moment you wrote me the message. It was the missing brace at the end! Actually, you don't need a collon upfront. But thanks anyway! --[[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L]] 04:13, 16 October 2006 (CDT)
