[edit] Linebreak?

I do not see any line breaks? -- Lacky 07:57, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

What desktop resolution are you using? poke | talk 07:59, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

1440x900. -- Lacky 08:13, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

Reduce it by something (for example to 1280) and check the page again. poke | talk 08:19, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

Ahh, I see...well a problem solved is a problem solved. -- Lacky 08:23, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

Couldn't you move the "Also see..." back a bit? -- Lacky 08:24, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

Just checked, it is only displayed in one line when I completely remove the margin, and then it looks a bit weird :P poke | talk 08:25, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

If I did the same thing that you did (which I have no idea =P) then it does look a tad weird, but not too much. -- Lacky 08:33, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] nicholas?

do u do every nicholas map? N122333 01:06, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I think so :) poke | talk 09:54, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Unnecessary double redirects?

Is there a purpose for this, this or this redirecting to another redirect? Shouldn't these rather redirect to their Feedback pages? - J.P.Talk 14:45, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Actually all those temp redirects could be deleted. poke | talk 14:39, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] "This is what a category is for..."

Then why we have navs for titles, miniatures, heroes and so on? - J.P.Talk 18:11, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

Okay, then I also want a enemies nav box (with all enemies), a enemies in <location> navbox, a boss navbox (with all bosses) and a boss in <location> navbox; all on the same page.

There is a big difference between NPCs and things you mentioned. poke | talk 18:23, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

Ok, fine then XD - J.P.Talk 18:47, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] AGF

I don't think they meant it.-- anguard 23:26, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

Was still vandalism though, i did also try to revert it but couldnt work out how lol Simzy 23:29, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

I've done accidental reverts/undos/clears in my beginner time, I didn't get banned for 3 days for it.-- anguard 23:33, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

Look through it though, why would they replace everything with pussy if it wasnt done on purpose?Simzy 23:37, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

Oh, I didn't see that o_O-- anguard 23:38, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

NP, like i said though, i tried to revert but i dont know how and then i saw it all get removed with just pussy as the text and then Poke sorted it so i knew that he saw it all. Simzy 23:40, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Block

Hello, I was recomended by Auron to talk to you about blocking matters. On PvX there seems to be something funny going on with my account. When other users get blocked so does my IP at home. This has happend before and it is getting annoying now. I was wondering if you could help out.----Xtreme 11:25, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Sounds similar to an issue we've had here before. Now sure how ArenaNet managed to fix it, but.. that's for Poke (or Wikia) to think about. -- pling 14:07, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

I recommend moving to Alaska. elix Omni 15:19, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] -poke-

User Talk:Wynthyst#Monthly_date; Sorry, I had the wrong template. But, anyway, I'm working on this auto theme changer thingy. Do you think it would work like this? -- Halogod35 13:52, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

-Poke?- -- Halogod35 02:53, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

If you want to get my attention, don't misuse the move template, when nothing was moved; but instead just refer to previous discussions and ask me directly.

To answer your question, I refer to Seru's userpage code as he did exactly that. poke | talk 14:39, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Script

I did use your script to add today's codex skills. - Reanimated X 07:29, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

Good to hear, hope others working on the codex skills will notice it too :) poke | talk 09:21, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Hello mr. Wizard.

(I think) a recent update to Google Chrome has caused it to display the navigation box and boxes that are usually below it, all the way down below the content of every page here. Do you know of an easy fix for this in my monobook or something, or should I just *sigh* switch back to firefox? — Why 20:57, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

I use Chrome and I don't have that problem, though when there is a div or span or anything like that are not closed (no /div or /span etc). Could be that? Titani Ertan 08:44, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Back to firefox with you. You know it's inevitable anyway. Alternatively, try some javascriptz stylesheetz. Absolute location should probably do. I would make it for you myself but I have no $&%#@ing clue of what I'm doing. Gimme a minute, CSS only takes like half an hour to learn and with syntax highlighting I can't fail. Tee hee hee, vim is so pretty now. nvm, even easier than I thought. Here, put this bad code in your css and see what pops out:

#p-navigation
{ position:absolute; top:160px; }
#p-search
{ position:relative; top:160px; }
#p-support
{ position:relative; top:160px; }
#p-tb
{ position:relative; top:160px; }

It works on mine, anyway....–Jette 09:11, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Hmm, given that it works for some users it is really weird. I don't have Chrome myself to test it, but I think it is probably a problem on your side. To test, could you try removing GWWT from your monobook.js - It is unlikely (because its portlet uses the same style), but maybe there is some issue with it.

Otherwise decreasing the left margin of the "column-content" div should make more room for the portlets without changing the look. Try adding #column-content { margin-left: -15em; } to your monobook.css. poke | talk 14:39, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

This has also been reported Guild_Wars_Wiki:Reporting_wiki_bugs#Google_Chrome_issues. There is a link there to another script that is said to fix it. I don't use Chrome, so I can't say for sure. -- Wyn talk 15:16, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Okay, tested it myself now. Add the following code to your monobook.css to fix it:

#column-one { position: absolute; width: 100%; }

I don't know why Chrome interprets this wrong, and why it works on other wikis, but this should fix the problem.. poke | talk 16:00, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Would putting it in the global css fix it for everyone? or would it just break it for those of us not using chrome? -- Wyn talk 16:21, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

I would prefer not adding that to the global file, because it may not work for some browsers and break things. poke | talk 16:22, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

That's cool.. is why I asked.. now if someone says... "why not just put it in the global css?" I can say.... "Cuz poke said so..." <3 -- Wyn talk 16:26, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
