 * Yay, new userboxes are always shiney! :D  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 17:47, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
 * And actually, I do use show preview somewhat often, but I usually don't bother with it on smaller edits ("What could I possibly have messed up with that little change?" >.>) or when using templates I think I'm familiar with. &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 17:53, 16 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Glad you like it (even though you altered it to a little less blunt ;) ). I generally use Show Preview when I make an edit with a ton of links, cause I often flunk those >.> And when I use several indents, to make it look at least a little good (i.e., not one word on a new line, then starting a new paragraph.

 * Viper, I hate to disappoint you, but if you run your browser fullscreen, you should experiment with shrinking it to a window and playing with the width. Unless you are inside a block with a fixed width, preferably in em or ex, you can't predict how many words will be on that line for the next viewer. If you must avoid single word lines, don't use plain space between the last three words of a paragraph, use &amp;nbsp; instead.

 * It's not obscure. & nbsp; = non-breaking space. The ampersand sets off the code, and the semi-colon ends it. &mdash; Powersurge360  21:53, 16 August 2008 (UTC)


 * & rarr; = Right Arrow (larr = Left Arrow etc). Which is logical. nbsp is just some string of letters to me.

 * Actually, she only is saying "I want (emphasis on want) it just in the Upload log, so I remove the Summary", not "It shouldn't show up on the page besides the log". --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]]-- (s)talkpage  19:20, 17 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Actually, I just like pinning the blame on other people. <.< &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 19:32, 17 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Well, I've seen people get upset at other uploaders and myself for renaming their images without credit. And leaving the note in the Summary (which is placed automatically, unfortunately) is not right.  But, I guess, afterall, we can always slap them with "If you don't want your writing to be edited mercilessly or redistributed by others, do not submit it." So yeah, it's just a courtesy thing, nothing else. Like I said before, I try to do it for the "good" images that will likely be permanent, but usually don't bother with placeholders. RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.jpg]] 17:36, 19 August 2008 (UTC)


 * If that line of text is in the summary, you're giving them credit, right? Don't see why it isn't "right", but might just be me. --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]]-- (s)talkpage  17:50, 19 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Leaving it in the Summary isn't right, because the Summary should reflect the essence of the image, not who uploaded it. You're basically saying "This is an image that was originally uploaded by so-and-so."  This is NOT a good summary for an image.  The upload log is the only place that keeps track of who uploaded an image, and if it has the second uploader's name with the original uploader's name next to it, I think that's the proper way to do it, or don't do it at all.  RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.jpg]] 18:32, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
 * The essence of the image is usually given in the form of a caption on pages it's used, explanation (talk pages) or it's so dead-obvious it's not necessary to have a summary saying "this is a pic of X doing Y" though. --Shadowcrest  18:44, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, in most cases, yes, it is dead-obvious, and there shouldn't be a summary at all. I don't see why a single enty to RC makes such a big difference.  Anyway, there's no point in discussing this so much, it's personal preference, and I will continue doing it, but others don't have to.  RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.jpg]] 21:41, 19 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm not going to do it for the armor gallery reuploading so I don't kill RC. This way I only create two entries per image (delete/upload) instead of three (delete/upload/edit).  Both deletions and uploads are easy to skip over in RC because the line is formatted differently, doubly so if you use Enhanced RC, but single edits to many different articles aren't. &mdash;The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dr ishmael (contribs).

Oh, and could you please comment on Category talk:Animated? Does your objection still stand? --◄mendel► 02:53, 24 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Short answer: "Animated" is a stupid name for a category. Wikia is frustrating me with its slow response times right now, so I don't feel like coming up with a better response on that issue.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 03:25, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

more about armor templates
Just wanted to say, first of all, that you're doing a great job with updating all the armor pages with templates and new crafting tables. I like that you changed the armor template to "align images by height" instead of width, but you forgot to do the same for headgear images, as can be seen on Ranger_Monument_armor, for example. I prefer to let you handle all this, since I haven't looked at exactly what you did with the code, and I don't want to mess stuff up. Thanks again for the great job you're doing. RoseOfKali 17:11, 26 August 2008 (UTC)


 * On that topic: Ranger armor has some red links, so to say... --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]]-- (s)talkpage  17:34, 26 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Every time I saw a gallery like that I thought, "I should go and make the headgear images fixed-height, too," but I never got around to it. I'll do that now.
 * And I am going to update all the armor index pages to use the correct images, I just had to go to a meeting, then to lunch, then actually do some work before getting back to the wiki. (I'm a major slacker when it comes to my real job, if you hadn't already figured that out. :P)  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 18:41, 26 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Okay, head images changed to fixed-height. The current settings are x375px for full-body images and x125px for head images.  If anyone thinks these need to be changed for any reason, let me know.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 18:53, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Now it is such a bizarrely improbable coincidence that anything so mind-bogglingly useful could have evolved purely by chance that some thinkers have chosen to see it as a final and clinching proof of the non-existence of God. The argument follows:  "I refuse to prove that I exist," says God, "for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing."  "But," says Man, "the Babel fish is a dead giveaway, isn't it?  It could not have evolved by chance, thus proving that you exist, therefore by your own arguements, you don't.  QED."  "Oh, dear," says God, "I hadn't thought of that," and promptly vanishes in a puff of logic. -- D. Adams

random halp
User:Entropy/NFT - why so many skillbars show up with "No icon for this skill" when that's clearly not the case? Too many of them on the page? (T/C) 15:10, 28 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Yep, that's it. I saw the same thing when I was on the build redlinks crusade - people would have 20 or so build articles all smashed together in one userpage (HATE HATE HATE), and the latter half of the page would have hardly any icons in the skill bars.  It's probably something to do with the high number of #ifexist calls, even though it's not enough to trigger the warning message.
 * We could make an alternative skill bar template without the #ifexist's, to be used only in cases where you know that the skill and matching icon actually exist. &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 15:16, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh, wait - the "too many #ifexist calls" warning only shows up when you edit the page (similar to the "this page is too long" warning, which that page also gets), it says you have 235 on there. &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 15:20, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Hrm...well I can't think of a fix without making a new template, because there is no other clean and pretty way to display skills while saving excessive scrolling. Strangely, the page didn't used to break. [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 15:24, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I think, before we got bought by Wikia, the #ifexist limit was 500 (I've seen comments implying that on talk pages somewhere), but here on Wikia it's only 100. Maybe we just need to bug Kyle to get them to raise the limit back to 500.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 15:32, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
 * pvx:User:Entropy/NFT imo :P I don't think PvXcode has a limit, it'll just take a long time to load and the bbcode doesn't start working until everything's loaded. You could also try just putting the builds the enemies use on a different page, which would help some. Maye several different pages :(  &not; Wizårdbõÿ777  ( talk ) 16:51, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

 * That makes me laugh slightly. It hardly seems like they have enough stuff there to warrant talk about sysops.

relinking Throne Of Secrets
I didn't see a section on GuildWiki talk:Bot_tasks/Relinking_moved_pages for actually relinking pages that have already been moved, so I thought I'd request that one here (feel free to move this thataway). has been moved to Throne Of Secrets in December 2006, so it'd be a good idea to check if Anet hasn't actually fixed the name in the meantime. --◄mendel► 13:06, 29 August 2008 (UTC)


 * The official wiki still has it at GWW:Throne of Secrets, but in the Gw.dat files, the name is Throne Of Secrets. If I had more time, I'd take a character through Abaddon's Gate and get 100% screenshot proof, but I don't.  I might have time to run AWB on that later today, or it might have to wait until tomorrow.

Sorry but...
I'm new to this and I been trying to set up my userpage. I tried that character template which you linked to for your credits, but when I fill it out, the link is red and directs me to the page where it says something like: "The page you clicked is removed/non existant."

I thought tehre was a move to get rid of the build redlinks from wanted pages by a bot or some such thing?

 * I remember some Wikia thing where the list of wanted pages or something won't show you the full list beyond a certain number of pages until you fix all those. Maybe that was the problem. Or perhaps you didn't fix links like this: SS Nuker which get renamed within the link? I dunno...Anyway, so you are just going to remove the sets of brackets , correct? Later on, when there is no more pressing project, I suppose another bot round could take all those text and link them to PvX. [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 15:04, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

 * I hope this doesn't require someone versed in the ways of the Mediawiki. What we have is the reverse situation that Iran into when DPL-ing the non-orphaned artciles: then, links would register when I first did them, only to disappear later; here, they disappeared, only to unfortunately reappear. My suggestion: make all missing build pages redirects to a page that says, in essence: "this build has been deleted in the , go look for it on, please." --◄mendel► 17:14, 8 September 2008 (UTC)


 * No. We don't need to create 100+ worthless redirect pages just to deal with these stupid build links, they simply need to be removed (we actually had a discussion about this before, can't remember where).  If DeletedLink isn't working right (which totally defeats its purpose), I'll just have to delink them completely.  I doubt very many people even look at these pages anymore in any case - if I went totally bonkers and deleted all of the userspace build archives, I bet I'd get maybe 1 or 2 complaints.
 * A good compromise might be to delink all build links, as I plan to do anyway, then post a notice at the top of the page similar to what mendel suggested. &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 18:04, 8 September 2008 (UTC)


 * I suggest keeping on using DeletedLink, the advantage is that you can edit that now to not link at all any more, and thus fix the immediate problem in one fell swoop. --◄mendel► 21:29, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Is there someway we can have the entire namespace point to a single page? Also, if they are categories, just outright delete the reference. &mdash;♥ Jedi ♥ Rogue ♥ 21:32, 8 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Categories -> delete, check. How about templates (Template:Build archive, etc.), delete them too?  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 21:50, 8 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Move the templates into obsolete templates cat? I don't see why redirect pages are "worthless", they preserve integrity of sorts for external links, creating a redirect page takes less resources than editing a wiki page, and it doesn't actually load the server in a noticeable way, certainly less than a DeletedLink call does. It's a solution. Click away on the wantedpages, copy&paste the redirect to the warning page, and I can have these manually botted fast and efficiently. Or make a page list from Wantedpages, filter by build: namespace, and have AWB do it. It works, it is efficient, it has the benefit of keeping links elsewhere from the intarweb not pointing into space. --◄mendel► 22:22, 8 September 2008 (UTC)


 * What would happen if Template:DeletedLink rewrote the link to use a http: style URL? Do these still redlink? If they don't, the functionality is not too bad, because a reader can click and doesn't notice when the page exists and gets a 404 when the page doesn't. Can we customize our mediwiki message for nonexisting pages (do you wnat to create this page?) so that it discourages creatingthat page if it starts with build: ? --◄mendel► 22:28, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I'd say either do the redirect (Maybe to GW:BUILD?) or just change Deletedlink to remove the #ifexists function altogether. If you just have the template always link to the deletion log, problem solved. It seems like that function was always kind of pointless, since the template should (in theory) only be used on redlinks.[[Image:Entrea Sumatae.png|Entrea Sumatae]] Entrea   [Talk]  22:30, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
 * We've used it on some talkpages to avoid redlinking for pages we proposed creating, if memory serves. --◄mendel► 23:22, 8 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Mendel, you don't know the history of this issue. Back in April, Warwick started doing exactly what you are proposing to do - and she was stopped, and the pages re-deleted, because literally everyone else argued against it.  So to fix the issue, I proposed writing a bot script that would take the links and rewrite them, either with a link to PvX (based on a build correspondence list drawn up by Wizardboy777) or with a DeletedLink.  I wish we'd know back then that DeletedLink doesn't really work, then I could've just de-linked everything from the beginning.  Which I still say is the best solution now.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 23:37, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
 * That list only had ones with 10+ links, if memory serves. Might've been 5. But I definitely didn't get all of them.  &not; Wizårdbõÿ777  ( talk ) 02:56, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

Sabway
I've been doing some research on popular builds like sabway, imbagon, etc. and considering the current state of a lot of the skills I frnakly cannot see how they are so good. Meh. Skuld's Para build still ownz though. (T/C) 05:01, 9 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Sabway is awesome because you have a great defense and good damage with only 3 heroes used (less proficient in 4 man areas, you will need some alterations :P ). Soul Reaping gives them all the Energy they need to perform well. I fondly recall running 3 or 4 MMs + Sabway with Prog and rolling through Tyria like a.. Idk what, but it's fast.

 * I guess I will have to try it. I just don't understand how it could work...where do you get enough bodies for 4 MMs anyway? [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 01:40, 10 September 2008 (UTC)


 * 4 MMs? o_O Not in the Sabway I know.  Sabway is 1 MM, 1 SS, and 1 Restoration healer.  The rest of the party slots should be damage-dealers, although at least 1 additional heal or prot monk is usually advised.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 01:43, 10 September 2008 (UTC)


 * I am just thinking that if you ran a solid Curses SS and a solid Restoration Rit, it would be more effective. MMs usually don't use all eight skill slots so I can see there being room for spare utility...especially on a Bomber. I've never ran a serious build using primary and secondary profession skills, unless it was for something unlinked like Wild Blow or very gud like Mending Touch (or something OP like Scythe Sin)... [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 01:56, 10 September 2008 (UTC)


 * You might want to look at this build on PvX, then, it's exactly what you're saying: Curses SS, Resto N/Rit, and a Minion Bomber that has half a bar for utility skills. And that's what I've always known as Sabway.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 02:01, 10 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Whuu? I was under the impression that Sabway and Triple Necro Vanquish were identical things. That's what I always see in-game too. PvX and Viper seem to say otherwise... [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 02:07, 10 September 2008 (UTC)


 * I suk. Nevermind. We should put a tag on this whole subheader. :L [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 02:09, 10 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Trip Nec Vanquish and Sabway are thesame :) PvX just refrains from referring to a build-creator in PvE builds. It's fine in PvP builds though, for some reason. As I said above, I ran 3 or 4 MMs in addition to Sabway. There were enough corpses because the only Minionspells we had were Bone Minions and Flesh Golems, thus using corpses to full efficiency ;) And Rt/N's cannot hold more than 7 Minions or something close to that. Maybe 8, not sure about the Death Magic stuff. Also, you forgot to close the fail tag, now everything below is fail too!

GW.dat
What do you use to pull things out of the .dat file? Typical editor? (T/C) 04:51, 11 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Nuu! I dun wanna give away all my secrets! >.>  <.<  I use three different programs, actually, depending on what I'm trying to get and how I want to go about getting it.
 * GW-Unpacker is a command-line program in C++ that simply extracts every single file and sorts them into folder by type (texture vs sound vs text etc.; textures are further sorted by compression type and level). You can tell it what file index to start from and stop at, but that's not usually very useful. It comes packaged with a utility called ATEXReader that converts the raw ATEX and ATTX textures into png files.
 * I actually have a custom version of this compiled that only extracts the text files, then I have a Perl script that parses all of those and picks out the English ones and reformats them to be readable, which I then compare to the previous build's files to see what changed. That's how I can get the updated skill descriptions so quickly.
 * GWDatBrowser is a graphical program that lets you browse through the whole dat file, it will play sound files, render textures (for most compressions), and display other files in a hex editor. Slightly more useful that GW-Unpacker if you know the general area of your gw.dat file you want to look in, but still somewhat clunky - there's no folder structure within gw.dat, so you just get a list of 160,000+ files.
 * 3D Ripper DX is a wrapper program that hooks into Gw.exe and extracts fully rendered textures from your video card's memory while the game is running. It can either capture all textures that get loaded or only the textures on-screen when you hit a configurable hotkey.  It's definitely the quickest way to get the specific textures you want, and the only way to get the in-game versions of skill icons (the versions in gw.dat are somewhat dull, apparently they have extra "glow" textures or processing added to them before they are displayed in-game).
 * And now I seriously hope I haven't been ec'ed after all that... &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 05:10, 11 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks! That looks fun. :) I know one particular file that I want to get - the music which normally plays in Kaineng Center and such areas. Apparently it is not part of the official soundtrack CDs. (On the other hand, there are a lot of music in those that I've never even heard before.) I am also thinking of Photoshop opportunities that one could do with raw stuff from the .dat ... or use the sounds for stuff...etc. By the way, what's the legality of dissecting the .dat ? :p [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 05:21, 11 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I've recently taken to using TexMod to the same end that you use 3DRipper; it lets you browse the on-screen textures in logging mode if you hit * and then walk through them with + and - (use the numpad keys, dunno how that works on teh laptop), and you can save the one you need. It also replaces the currently selected texture with green in the scene, so if you want a specific texture, you can just hold down + until it flashes green, and then back up with - until you have it.
 * Legal issues: INAL, but I think teh following might apply: ANet has given me the textures with the client download, so if I can download the client from an ANet-authorized source without agreeing to anything, they're mine to personally use; if I have agreed to a license, I'm bound by that; and for publication rights (i.e. posting them anywhere on the web), I need to fall back on fair use or on ANet not pursuing their rights, much as we do with every GW picture on the wiki that's not in the fansite kit. --◄mendel► 11:03, 11 September 2008 (UTC)


 * As long as you don't misuse any of the game assets (try to sell them as your own work, etc.), I'm pretty sure this is all covered by the reverse engineering clause of copyright law. &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 13:31, 11 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, TexMod can be used similarly to 3DRipper, the main difference being that with TexMod, you have to cycle through all the currently-displayed textures to find the one you want - usually there are ~200 textures on-screen, and the green overlay isn't always obvious on some textures, which can make it somewhat difficult to work with. 3DRipper saves all the textures to your hard drive, which are easier for me to pick through, especially since I usually know the size of the texture I'm looking for (skill and inventory icons, the main things I capture from in-game, are 5kB).  They're saved as .dds (DirectDraw) files, I use a plugin for the GIMP to read them.  The main drawbacks to 3DRipper are that it won't re-extract a texture it has previously extracted (until you restart the program) and that it can cause graphical glitches, the most common for me is a "white-out" where the entire GW window goes white.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 15:00, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Holy crap, I forgot all of the Nightfall ones: Yahnur Market, Tihark Orchard, Grand Court of Sebelkeh, The Mouth of Torment, and I guess Gate of Anguish (since all four parts of DoA are actually part of a single explorable area).

Wonder if that's still worth noting, since there's actually seven of them.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 14:38, 12 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Does it have a use at all? Can your party spawn through both portals at once? (I doubt it.) It does make sense to note that an explorable has two exits to teh same destination, because in some cases this means you can choose the one that's easier to reach. When you're in an outpost, it's not hard to figure out where the exits are. I suggest adding a (2x) to the infobox where the neighbors are listed to denote the dual exit. You can then DPL the infoboxes if you want a full list. ;-P --◄mendel► 14:51, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
