Old Patches

Thanks for all the great work getting the old patch pages up to date. Due to the quantity and quality of your contributions you have been given sysop status. This allows you to make deletions, edit protected pages, and skip captchas when adding external links.

I'll be finishing up the last of the templates tonight, including templates for zone format pages. Also I should clarify the difference between the links on the announcements page and the patch page, the dead link blurb and link to the internet archive are left over from before we had announcement pages or templates and are being phased out. Now the sections on the announcements page are meant to be archival and so use the original link when it was first published, whatever it was. The original link is duplicated on the patch page as well as a current link (Turbine has current links for mid 2003 to the present indexed here). For late 2008 to the present the current and original links will be the same. If there isn't a current link, set the value to Current = None. Thanks again. --Tlosk 14:02, 6 April 2009 (CDT)

Quest Guides

Hey Tiger. I see you have been putting together a lot of guides for older quests. You are using the older quest guide template for them. The new template code is located here: Quest Guide Template, with an example here: Frore. If you want to continue using the older template, that is fine - any guide is better than none - but those pages will have to be updated later to fit the new template, so it'd save time later to start off with the new one. thanks. --An Adventurer 17:40, 21 March 2009 (CDT)

Great work on the material you've been adding. The templates are new and we're all using them for the first time now so if anything doesn't work as you expect it to let me know, we're still tweaking them (in a couple days once all the kinks have been worked out we'll be releasing a new version of the swiss tool that will include the new templates. --Tlosk 08:43, 22 March 2009 (CDT)

Hello, welcome to the Wiki. To help us keep the wiki cleaned up, please Page Templates when creating articles, and proper naming formats and image sizes when adding/updating images:

Live Images must be named Article Name Live.jpg (JPG image, Case Sensitive), and are 200x300px, 300x300px, or 300x400px exactly.
Stats Panel Images must be named Article Name.jpg (JPG image, Case Sensitive), and are typically 300x400px or 300x300px for short items. Longer items are 300x???px (depending on length).
Icon Images must be named Article Name Icon.png (PNG image, Case Sensitive), and are 32x32px exactly.

Note: To help you easily create images of the proper names and formats, please download our Wiki Swiss Tool. Among other things, the Wiki Swiss Tool includes the ability to crop images to many of the Wiki-Standard sizes and formats. Check it out!

Thanks again for your contributions! --Atarax 10:53, 12 February 2009 (CST)
