Aah, all fresh and clean
Well, not completely clean, ever since the archive box, and this comment. Have a nice day. --- -- (s)talkpage  10:46, 10 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Oh, by the way, just saw the /essay page: No, you won't need to slap delete on the talk pages: Whoever deletes the article should see there's a talk page to delete :> --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]]-- (s)talkpage  10:55, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
 * BTW - if someone presses the new section button - it will create it under your nocomment line Random Time  18:16, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Well that's kinda lame... I'd leave the closing tag, but with some skins it screws with the boxes on the sidebar. Guess I'll just go in and manually fix it, no big deal. &mdash; Powersurge360 Violencia  18:18, 10 July 2008 (UTC)\
 * Heya Power, if you take a look at my talk page, you can impliment this background thingy into a template like I have... It solves the new section issue. -Hope this helps. -- [[Image:Isk8.png]]  I~sk8   (T/C) 02:58, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
 * And you did yours by creating a table, yes? I was trying to maintain an up-to-date with current standards code, and keep everything all neat and closed but, evidently, it's too much to ask for. I'm a lil wary about the use of wiki-code created tables, mostly because I don't understand why they work, and it's hard for me to use something I don't fully understand. I'll probably break down and make the switch sometime though. &mdash; Powersurge360 Violencia  03:03, 11 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Just use a neutral bg. Anyhow, I also use (received) a table for the crosshair cursor. Tables all the way, ^jo --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]]-- (s)talkpage  09:59, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Oooool
My connection was lost last night and I couldn't restore it, presumably a mercifully rare ISP issue. I didn't just get bored of talking to you. 02:56, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Tis cool, I figured something had happened. &mdash; Powersurge360 Violencia  02:59, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the work, but...
...we have a proposed bot task for stuff like that. &mdash;Dr Ishmael 02:06, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I didn't deem it an appropriate bot task because many of the lists I'm using are only 2 or three entries long. It didn't seem a good job for a bot to do, ya know? If I'm wrong, then I'll stop, and I'll stop at least until I get a reply. &mdash; Powersurge360 Violencia  02:08, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I hadn't looked that closely at what links exactly you were updating, I just saw that a lot of the early ones were on Phantom (species). I was thinking along the lines of making less monotonous work for you, but if, as you say, the lists are short, then it probably is just as easy for you to do it.  If you come across anything with a huge "What links here" list that you don't feel like working through, feel free to add it to that bot task.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 02:56, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

(Mission)
I'm simply fixing the links that are shown to display where they will lead once clicked, and trying to make it a standard for the wiki since most are like this... Keitaro
 * The links are purposefully made this way to improve the flow of the article. When the links are the simple titles it can disrupt the voice the author may have or, in the case of the links on the acquisition pages, look a little awkward. &mdash; Powersurge360 Violencia  02:31, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
 * If that's the case then someone needs to go through and set the standard as I was saying. See Soul Leech for example. I'm just setting up a list for what elites I still need for my title and when I see something like that, I fix it. o.o Keitaro
 * Fair enough, links like that should be standardized, but I think that the links should have the simplest form, except when there are multiple places in game (Raisu Palace (Explorable) and Raisu Palace (Mission) for example). I guess we should both wait before we do anything until someone decides the standard, I'll put it on the noticeboard now to call attention to it. EDIT It seems as though an admin decided it's best to only use the simplest method, so I guess we should go with that for now. &mdash; Powersurge360 Violencia  02:36, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Well I was thinking something along the lines of [Raisu Palace (Explorable)]. All we'd have to do is chance the ( to [, it'd keep it from looking silly and clear up any confusion. Keitaro
 * If we were to do that, then literally thousands of skills would need to be changed. &mdash; Powersurge360 Violencia  02:46, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
 * For the locations referenced in Soul Leech, the version with the (mission) displayed is not necessary because the first location is either a mission or an outpost (and you can't cap a skill in an outpost) and the second is a mission only. For Raisu palace, it is different as the skill could be capped in both locations, so the reader needs to see which one it is. And by the way, GW:ULC mandates that "(mission)" be lowercase. There's a big fixin' task if you are looking for one... --◄mendel► 07:55, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Hope you don't mind
I changed your div background to an unclosed table, which does the same thing but doesn't need that cumbersome write-above end text.Entrea  [Talk]  03:01, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Nah, I just wish that there was a way I could get around using an open span tag in place of the now defunct font tag. Oh well. &mdash; Powersurge360 Violencia  03:08, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I still don't get why people want span style instead of font. Font works just fine, and it's easier to code.[[Image:Entrea Sumatae.png|Entrea Sumatae]]Entrea  [Talk]  03:13, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Font is deprecated in newer standards and will soon be phased out. &mdash; Powersurge360 Violencia  03:14, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
 * ohey I found out how to put font color in the table, but it doesn't change the headers. You'll have to choose which you like better.[[Image:Entrea Sumatae.png|Entrea Sumatae]]Entrea  [Talk]  03:16, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
 * The one you did the first time is fine is fine. I wish you could easily change the color of links. Oh well. &mdash; Powersurge360 Violencia  03:17, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
