 * Thanks! ^^ -- Stylva 08:36, 21 June 2006 (CDT)

Welcome to GuildWiki. Much like yourself I thought I played too much to update my userpage until I found that there was so much I could do with it. Believe me when i say that you've already got a jump on most with just the babel boxes. LOL--&mdash; xis10al   15:05, 21 June 2006 (CDT)
 * Thanks =) I think I might find some time and inspiration for my user page.. When I've filled up the slots on my second account ;) -- Stylva 16:34, 21 June 2006 (CDT)

Headings on userpage
you might want to consider droping the headers down for your characters, currently Second Account is on the same level as your characters, for a more effective Table of Contents you should lower the headers of the subsections (the characters). If you have no wish to use the ToC at all then add to your userpage. --Jamie  07:29, 22 June 2006 (CDT)

please review Template:cost and see if this meets your needs. --Honorable Sarah 14:36, 21 August 2006 (CDT)
 * No gold icon, lovely. Just one small thing, is it possible to align it to the right in the table with the template? (Like the CostP and CostG does) Otherwise the template works as I wanted it to =) Thanks 01:48, 22 August 2006 (CDT)

Why did you delete so many armor icon images?
I just checked, you removed the Ritualist Exotic 15k armor icons. OK, there was a mistake and they shared the filename of the 1.5k Exotic. But WHY did you delete Kurzick 15k Warrior armor icons as well, and not only that, you deleted almost all armor icons. I doubt if this was necessary, absolutely uncalled for. With Nightfall to be released soon there will be some armors that will not have icons anymore, especially undyed.

Please explain me what were the reasons for this mass deletion. I will not bother to upload files for Kurzick 15k warrior armor before. Now that I have dyed my Ritualist armor I will not be able to upload undyed 15k exotic armor icons. The latest version of the file you deleted was 15k exotic undyed btw, but unfortunately I do not have a backup of the file on my HD. --Long 05:49, 9 September 2006 (CDT)


 * I'm so sorry, but I don't follow you at all. What I did was to link the Ritualist 15k Exotic icons to the right name, they do not look the same as the 1.5k version after all. What icons did it say I deleted? I have not done so on purpose, I can assure you. My mistake if it has happened. Please link to the page with the log on my deletion, and I will try to fix what has happened.
 * I must say I'm most confused. I just uploaded some armor icons for thr PvP armors... ― Stylva 06:13, 9 September 2006 (CDT)

Hi, first of all, please take no personal offence. I just wonder what happened and why. Let me be more precise. Take a look at the Ritualist Exotic 15k armor - the armor icon is gone. The same for the Warrior Kurzick 15k. You can check your own contributions http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Stylva and see that you did something to the icons. The result was that now, there were already many armors without icons, almost no armors have their proper armor icons anymore. I think you intended a cleanup, nothing against this. I think you reformatted the fileNAMES? Then already existing files simply do no longer get displayed as name of the linked image on the page changed. Should be possible to restore them to the filenames you gave the armor icons, but it is quite some effort. There is also an issue with the format of the armor icons itself. There is nowhere a guideline how the format (30x100 pixels, just for example) should be, and armor icons are usually rarely uploaded and then usually in very different sizes. You cannot avoid unfilled white boxes or uneven armor icon sizes when nobody knows the right format. I will try to restore some armor icons tonight, I suggest you try to reconstruct some, too. --Long 08:10, 11 September 2006 (CDT)

Ah, this is it: You uploaded http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Image:Ritualist_Exotic_M_icons.jpg but http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Image:Ritualist_Exotic_Armor_M_icons.jpg is used for the http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Ritualist_Exotic_Armor page.

Then there were some other confusions: Ritualist Exotic Armor and Ritualist Exotic 15k Armor used to have THE SAME armor icons on their page. So changing it or the filename affected both armors.

I am still confused, I will work on restoring some armor icons tonight. --Long 08:19, 11 September 2006 (CDT)


 * The explanation is this, there has recently been some changing going on in the armor art box templates. Vulpes Foxnik has been informed, as he is working alot on standardizing the armor pages at the moment. He has looked into it, and I think he might have solved part of this problem. I also noticed that the icons still are there, but are linked to the wrong name as you stated. This has to do with the template. My conclusion is, that when I updated the page on other issues, the template also updated, and therefore it seems like I did delete the icons, though I did not. I just used the template as before.
 * One exception, the ritualist exotic 15k armor. There I added the parameter "ascended=yes", because the 15k and 1.5k versions aren't really the same. Now the pages link to different images. Is this not correct?
 * I will also work as much as I can on restoring the icons, putting them under the correct name. I don't think I caused it, but that doesn't matter really. Let's just work together to solve this =) ― Stylva 09:05, 11 September 2006 (CDT)

Hi Stylva, you are right, the reason for the missing armor icons was this armor art box template change, not you. You just uploaded some files related to armor icons. I just saw the result and thought it was you, should have asked Vulpes instead, my bad!. I uploaded male Armor Icons for the Kurzick 15k Warrior armor, this was quite easy. Much harder is it to find the old armor icon files and re-upload them under the new names of the template. Maybe I should check Vulpes contributions, it is probably the easiest way to find out the old filenames of the armor icons and re-upload them under the new filenames of the template. --Long 05:17, 12 September 2006 (CDT)


 * No problem Long, no hard feelings =) I found that going through the pages to find what armor pages miss icons, and then go to the image upload log and search them was the easiest way to find the old icons, for me at least. Hope it helps you. ― Stylva 07:56, 12 September 2006 (CDT)

Unique (Green) Items Tables
You're working against me here. I have been trying to get all the tables for unique items to look the same. This includes adding Damage Type and Required Attribute. I understand there will be repeated information, but when you look at the final product, Unique items quick reference (Prophecies), I think you'll agree that it will look best and be easier to read with the extra columns.

 * I'm so sorry, it was not my intention. Though I really don't like to have the same information repeated on a lot of places, it confuses. If the req and damage should be in the table, then the req and damage should NOT be listed elsewhere, in my opinion. Just the heading: Blood Magic, no additional sentence "All items listed here require blood magic" since it says so both in the heading and in the table. There can't be anyone that silly to need to read it thrice... ;) Plus, it's stated in the article of the item itself.. And, as in the mesmer quick reference, the damage type is listed even in the legend. Maybe we don't need it stated there, since no other profession has it. Just my opinion, if you think I'm totally wrong, then I will just stay away from those pages. =) -- Stylva 13:11, 29 September 2006 (CDT)
