== Stubs ==

Septi! So I see what you're doing, could you change those stub template implementations to <nowiki>{{stub|</nowiki>''category''<nowiki>}}</nowiki>? For example the <nowiki>{{Quest Stub}}</nowiki> into <nowiki>{{stub|Quest}}</nowiki>. I'll work on the implementation for it in an hour, with all the coolness you added to it. I'll expand it to Missions and whatever else you may like. Sound good? :D {{User:Goddess/Signature Template}} 01:46, 4 August 2008 (EDT)

:Oh, yeah. I know about the general master plan I suppose. With the side category, listing and stuff. I can implement that if you add in the |Quest or |Mission parameter of articles that fall in that category. If the parameter's not there, it'll act like its has been doing already. If you want to get a head start on using that instead, it would save a bunch of time in the future if we go this route. :) {{User:Goddess/Signature Template}} 01:59, 4 August 2008 (EDT)

Ok it's been done. Not sure if you caught this, but for future quest updates/standardization, could you link the start NPC and location as well as possibly adding a position if possible? The <nowiki>{{Stub|Quest}}</nowiki> (case insensitive) is ready to go, I wasn't sure if missions should be on there, cause I believe most of them have been completed, right? If you come up with any other categories that could fit in the "stub' subfunction, lemme know! :D Thaaanks! {{User:Goddess/Signature Template}} 09:29, 4 August 2008 (EDT)

P.S. If you describe some type of word art/design you want for a text signature, I'll see if I can whip something up for ya. ^^

Hey Sept,

Thanks for cleaning up my broken item links on [[Stronghold Invasion]]. I didn't realize BGWiki's convention for item pages was to use the abbreviated item names--I'm too used to otherwiki heh.

Awesome! Thanks!

I was wondering if there is an automated way to change page names. For instance, Relics and Mythics would be better reorganized so the level 75 version is named "Relic/Mythic (Level 75)" like the other versions, and then we make a redirect page with just "Relic/Mythic" that takes people to whatever the highest current version is.

Also, Mythics currently default to the NQ version that doesn't have any stats on it, while the stat-having version is "Mythic (Complete)". It would probably be more accurate if the statless version was "Mythic (Incomplete)" and the useful version was "Mythic (Level 75)"

This is certainly not a pressing issue, but I was thinking about it and figured I'd see if it was easier than I thought! --[[User:Byrthnoth|Byrthnoth]] 17:49, 11 May 2011 (EDT)

I forget the tag to put on stuff that needs your formatting attention, but the [[Waltz]] page is in serious need of some halp. I ended up with two different table formats and a line-break that I can't seem to get rid of in my formula. --[[User:Byrthnoth|Byrthnoth]] 10:07, 18 May 2011 (EDT)

Yeah, and some pages have links to the wrong set names xD. I tried to add them to the abjurations as I went through, but I'm not sure it worked out. --[[User:Byrthnoth|Byrthnoth]] 17:27, 27 May 2011 (EDT)

Hey Septimus. I see you updating the RDM set. Yugl did a bunch of tests on that, it goes:<br>
1 AF3+2 : No Bonus<br>
2 AF3+2 : +10%<br>
3 AF3+2 : +20%<br>
4 AF3+2 : +30%<br>
5 AF3+2 : +50%<br><br>

Feet have a separate +20% modifier, and the cape is also +10%<br><br>

Works out to:<br>

So i'm getting ready to update info on the SCH page, and I plan to write it all myself, but I'm not sure if using other wikis as a source of information qualifies as plagiarism. I can check my in-game spell list/abilities to see what all SCH has, but I don't know what lvl they were aquired without using wiki (for spells I can look at the scrolls, but for abilities do I have to go through all the version update announcements?) Do I just add the other wikis as a source at the bottom of the page(s)?

Hey, have you seen this thread? http://bluegartrls.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=24249

Normal Monsters

Taru Bribery

I gib you tarus... you fix me this template okok? <3 ; ; http://wiki.bluegartrls.com/Template:Item_Monster

I dont understand why those tables have those weird spacing, under Notes. Nothing I do seems to be fixing it example: http://wiki.bluegartrls.com/Askar_Korazin help onegai! --Aquelia 20:35, 15 November 2007 (CST)

  • more bribery... I gib you more tarus!... question: if I upload all the npc pictures one after another, and confirm that I have every single picture for every npc under Category:Need Image, is there a way to go through the entire category, automatically remove the
    [[Category:Need Image]] or {{Need Image}}
    tags? XDDD trying to find a way to do this fast without manually going into every page and removing the tags <333 --Aquelia 16:23, 18 November 2007 (CST)
