Questions Edit

Hi Tlosk, I think you fixed this for me once before, but my contribution history seems to have been merged with someone else's (ASHERON-Joe). Maybe it happened during one of the server moves? His edits are from 2007-2008. My edits start in 2009. Sorry for the trouble! --Jaguar 00:59, 14 May 2013 (EST)

Hi

Would you do me a kindness please Tlosk and create an account for me on the acpedia wiki? will contributions be sorted over there do you know? I would actually like my user on here to be changed to Nevroth ...is that possible? if so, can you use that name over on acpedia and Arkalor if it's not possible for a change at this point.

also, what is happening with the loot pages, I noticed my old crappy tier pages have been relinked to in the sidebar?

thank you sir ---Ash 11:09, 13 October 2013 (EST)

Changes to the Quest Summary template Edit

Hi Tlosk,

I thought we could have a slimmed down and tidier summary table and keep reward info in the body of the page neatly in one section and do away with the repeated info in the table (I wanted to subcategorise by level req. also so players could just quickly find what quests they can access).

I read through the old notes back when the template was made and saw that the Lore & Dialog section was meant for lore and story info in addition to quest dialog, but I counted no more than 5 guides that had story info that people had taken the time to add (one was a half hearted attempt by me) - so I renamed it to just "Dialog". Some users have entered story elements in the overview section. I removed the gold text, as I really think it looks messy now and doesn't make the text that much easier to read to be honest - plus it would be so much easier to just copy and paste text and then use colons for indents/line breaks.

I used the name quest summary temp for the changes so as not to mess with new guides and then when I reached the most recent quests, I was going to move the template over to the correct name and then do a text replace on the guides.

Hopefully you don't hate my tweaks haha.

oh, Merry Christmas! ---Ash 14:11, 25 December 2013 (EST)

-Nice, those changes will work.  Question... Can you use the variables in more than one page on the page?  Like ''Class''?  Or is it a 1 to 1 relationship?  The other suggestion I have is to change some of the wording at the bottom to make the ''What Links Here'' line be automated instead of relying on someone to properly pluralize it.  Maybe something like this:
+Hi
-: I was thinking the that you could use the '''Class''' Variable to dynamically build the '''<nowiki>[[Category:Creature Class]]</nowiki>''' portion.  That would eliminate any edits required at the bottom of the page for a typical creature. --[[User:Atarax|Atarax]] 13:21, 23 January 2009 (CST)

-I had seen the google map before, I guess I forgot about it. The google map is cool, but its not freely editable by anyone, and I don't really like that it already has a bunch of info displayed on the map. I just thought a wiki version would be pretty cool - sort of the new ACexplorer. I guess we'll wait till the next update.

+Hi Tlosk,
-I haven't used the wiki swiss tool that much  - I just use photoshop and the old templates - but I'll check this update out.

-I'm going to need the Map Point Plus template increased to 60 objects - I'm using it to display the items on the [[Quick Reference Card]] but its well over the 30 limit. I was also planning on mapping all the [[Towns]], using the new Aluv, Gharu, Sho, and Generic markers I added, which you can check out here: [[Template:Map Point Plus]] under usage. --[[User:An Adventurer|An Adventurer]] 15:52, 23 January 2009 (CST)

-I noticed that [[User:Quanta]] added all the ''Future Titles'' in the [[Current_Patch#New_Titles]] section.  I guess this is from the hacked client data, but do you think we should include this in the [[Current Patch]]?  I think it will become confusing because people will think that's when those titles were actually available.  --[[User:Atarax|Atarax]] 01:51, 24 January 2009 (CST)
