 * Rose doesn't need a Green card because she could easily immigrate/naturalize being married to a US citizen and all; it's the contract she signed when she first came to the US that is making all of this impossible right now. -- ◄mendel► 01:29, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

 * Lol, yeah, I've tried the GC lottery many times before and eventually gave up. The reason that's messing things up for me now would also prevent me from getting a green card even if I won the lottery.  Mendel is correct in that I have to fulfill a "contract" so to speak by going back to my home country for 15 more months before I can obtain an immigrant status.  There are waivers for this thing, but from all we've read, in order to get a waiver for this you basically have to have yourself, your spouse, or your child on a deathbed with the only medical treatment available in the US and not in the country you're going to... >_< That, or be a world-renowned genius or be persecuted in your home country for religious or political belief (not happening for me, they friggin love Americans in my part of Ukraine, and I'm not about to convert to Islam)...

Somebody needs to tell Suicidal to stop staring at that widget and get the real RecentChanges. ;-) -- ◄mendel► 23:59, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I didn't know there was a widget for it. O_o RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.png]] 00:14, 24 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Mendel, I think the widget is useful, even for people like me who visits Special:RC all the time anyways. Sure, if I'm just refreshing to see what's going on, RC suffices.  But if I am actually browsing or editing/previewing, the widget saves me an extra trip / page-load. -User:PanSola (talk to the [[Image:follower of Lyssa.png]]) 00:19, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

 * (edit conflict) Anyone is able to change a policy page, Suicidal. Especially if you're just correcting something. Significant changes require discussion, but still, users should feel empowered to change GuildWiki as much as anyone else. -- Shadowcrest  20:09, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Necromancer Shing Jea armor
Hi, please explain why you reverted my edit when all I did was make the page confrom to the usual format. --> Suicidal Tendencie 21:10, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I gave a link in the revert comment... O_o RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.png]] 00:11, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
 * To one example, Ele Delver armor, ye. Not only is GWiki still adapting to GW:EN additions (over the weekend I'm adding GW:EN bosses to elite skill locations lists, which has not gotten 50% of GW:EN bosses yet as far as I can see). In any event, that is a clear minority, and there is no reason to split the format into several different styles. I may go through all armor pages and add the trivia to the description. --> Suicidal Tendencie [[Image:Suicidal_Tendencie_Sig.jpg]] 13:26, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I respectfully disagree, but I'm not going to go out of my way to find more examples. I just think that things like Chinese script and names of GW players should be kept out of the description, it IS TRIVIA by definition and has no other value than that, it does not describe the item to someone who doesn't read Chinese or knows about the guy who made the videos.  Trivia: matters or things that are very unimportant, inconsequential, or nonessential .  Not that many armors have trivia compared to other articles like quest dialogues, but that's no reason to exclude trivia from armor pages entirely.  I would get more opinions if I were you, before you go and start changing a bunch of articles, you are the first one to have a problem with it, and I don't even understand why.  RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.png]] 16:18, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I generally try to stick to a given format for simplicity. blah blah scar is similar to Chinese script is describing it, it is saying it looks like something, which, believe it or not, is a description, too. I think it's fair to say a minority of armor pages have trivia, and so unless I see a decent reason to go against the norm, imho, it's just splitting format for no reason.
 * I feel rather unhappy with the have a problem with it bit, I'm not crying in front of my moniter, I'm trying to make the site more simple and user-friendly. Someone, I believe it was Mendel but not 100%, told me the purpose of the site is to document the game as it is, providing infomation useful for those playing the game. There is a case for not presenting such trivia at all. Please observe the fact I'm not making that argument, just I do not see the point of having a section devoted to descriptive trivia, which 99.9% of players will not care about. --> Suicidal Tendencie [[Image:Suicidal_Tendencie_Sig.jpg]] 16:36, 25 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Wether you put the section for trivia under the Description (which should describe the armor, no?) or under a separate Trivia header; It's still there. How much does it matter to have a header above the trivia section? Just my opinion. --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]] -- (srs Viper) &emsp;(talk)  16:42, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
 * How much does it matter...? This is likely to vary from person to person so I won't bother replying to it if you don't mind.
 * should describe the armor, no? I can't help feeling like you decided to avoid reading what I said above. If you describe the Plagueborn Staff as being partially made of flesh, why is that different to saying this armor's scar pattern resembles Chinese script?
 * Perhaps something just isn't clicking in my head atm, but flesh exists in RL. Chinese script exists in RL. They're both stating the appearance is similar to something else. I find no reason to start messing with the standard format for such a minute reason. --> Suicidal Tendencie [[Image:Suicidal_Tendencie_Sig.jpg]] 16:46, 25 February 2009 (UTC) Rose: I'm not emotionally involved, just stating the facts as I see them
 * Well, I personally think it's better as trivia. If it has to cite an outside source, it seems like trivia. I think the current description of "network of thin scars covering most of the face" is sufficient. --JonTheMon 17:18, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

Flesh is something familiar to everyone, Chinese Script isn't, and as Jon pointed out, it cites an outside source. And who is Yeoryios? That's not a description, it IS trivia. It is rare, but it's there. The concept of "Standard format" does not rule out exceptions. Take Necromancer Elite Scar Pattern armor/Male - it does not dye, but the "standard format" is that all armor dyes. So what do you do? You make an exception. It's not like everything has trivia or nothing at all, it can be that only a few things have trivia, and still be considered "standard." I wouldn't consider adding a trivia section at the bottom of the article as messing with the standard format. RoseOfKali  18:04, 25 February 2009 (UTC) And I am also stating the facts as I see them, I just see them differently from you.

All articles on the wiki have a potential trivia section at the bottom. You'll find that if articles have trivia (trivia being information that is interesting, but does not enhance actual gameplay), it is always in its own section at the bottom (because it is very unimportant); and that if there are no trivia, the section is absent. I see no reason to do it differently here. -- ◄mendel► 18:34, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Excellent observation. What's the deal with unconfirmed trivia, e.g. Yeoryios? --> Suicidal Tendencie [[Image:Suicidal_Tendencie_Sig.jpg]] 18:50, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Either it is quite convincing (then it doesn't need to be confirmed), or we confirm it (via Emily Diehl's talkpage on gww), or it gets moved to the talkpage. -- ◄mendel► 19:11, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
 * There's also Fozzy_Yeoryios to match the gloves and further reinforce the trivia. But afterall, Mendel's word rules all. :) Thanks for finding a way to say it in semi-official terminology after I've been trying to explain it without enough authority to convince anyone.
