Table colours

How come when I try and change the colour of the common skills at the table on the Resurrection page, Grey turns out to be green and {{Any-color}} turns out black? — ク Eloc 貢 19:38, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

both is gray.. Buy a new monitor. poke | talk 19:56, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

It's probably a browser problem. Some browsers read 3 digit hex colours as 6 digit hex colours with zeroes for the last 3 digits, and browsers display a default colour if they don't recognize a named colour. -- Gordon Ecker 01:56, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

I've changed template:any-color to use 6 digit colours like the other profession colour templates, it should work now. -- Gordon Ecker 02:08, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Aww Poke, you should of told him to buy me a new computer, that would of been the best way to solve the problem :P --Kakarot 02:25, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

It's btw "gray" not "grey". poke | talk 13:08, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Actually it's grey in British English, and Canadians retained a bit more Britishness than Americans did. ;) Biscuits 12:18, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

We are I am talking about html colors, and there it is "gray", not "grey" :P poke | talk 12:51, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Oddly, there's also a "lightgrey", but no "lightgray". -- Gordon Ecker 03:29, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

HTML would beg to differ. "gray" and "grey" are both defined for HTML color names, as are "lightgray" and "lightgrey". See here for a reference. Wikipedia's entry on HTML color names is incomplete (or at least, not comprehensive). (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 15:36, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Help, I've just bought Nightfall, do I need a internet connections to play the game? Aren't there like a single player campaign?

No, Guild Wars is an online game. You have to be connected to the internet to play.-- Wynthyst 07:53, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Wiki editing: Booleans?

I want a template, with a parameter tyria. When set to '1' (or any True-like value), it should display . How can I do this? And, how can I check if a parameter has been set at all? << horsedrowner | talk | guild >> 14:11, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

{{ #if: {{{parametername|}}} | set/not empty | not set/empty }}. poke | talk 14:16, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Er, shouldn't that be "set/not empty" for the first, and "not set/empty" for the second? Edit unless you meant that you could leave one or the other result empty. :P (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 15:13, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Signature

[[Image:User Horsedrowner avatar.jpg|25px| ]] [[User:Horsedrowner|<font color=#008855 face="calibri">horsedrowner</font>]] gives an invalid html tags error, upon setting it as signature in my preferences. In wiki code though, it looks like File:User Horsedrowner avatar.jpg horsedrowner. Any help? File:User Horsedrowner avatar.jpg horsedrowner 15:26, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

i dunno about the invalid part, but u need 2 make ur sig 19px in accordance with GWW:SIGN--Sum Mesmer Guy contribs 15:29, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

the invalid is the pipe behin "25px". i marked it in your post above. and, as mentioned, it has to be 19px. - Y0_ich_halt 15:35, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

at least i think that's the problem. maybe it's also the font color=#008855 face="calibri". maybe use <span style="color: #008855; font-face:calibri;">horsedrowner</span>. - Y0_ich_halt 15:36, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Good call Y0 -- Wynthyst 15:40, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

expression error

topic: my template User:Y0 ich halt/Templates/AllTitles. have a look at this version: [1]. at the very top of the table it says "Expression error: Unrecognised punctuation character "{"". technically, it's clear what's wrong here, but looking at the code, there is no function between the heading and the "Survivor" part which has a { too much. and oddly, despite the error being there, everything seems to work fine. any ideas? - Y0_ich_halt 15:33, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

The important part for that is {{#ifexpr:{{var++|br5}}=3 | ... }}. {{var++|br5}} returns {{ #vardefine: br5 | {{#expr: {{#var:br5}}+1}} }} so it results in {{#ifexpr:{{ #vardefine: br5 | {{#expr: {{#var:br5}}+1}} }}=3 | ... }} and so there is an error. poke | talk 15:56, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

wow, thanks. how'd you find that little typo? (typo because i think copy-pasting the wrong codep art is typoing imo :P). i looked for it half an hour and couldn't find it. - Y0_ich_halt 16:05, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

I was simply looking for an invalid expression :P poke | talk 16:17, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

syntax for bolding a page name

In the first sentence of each page, usually the page name is in bold either by

'''Page''' or [[Page]]

I have seen some users change the apostrophe syntax to the bracket syntax and some users changing it the other way. I was wondering if there was really some technical reason behind it and if I should be using one syntax over the other. Tedium 06:29, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

the apostrophe syntax is probably better, there's less potential 4 a problem (eg, if the page was moved), but, in reality, it doesn't rly matter.--Sum Mesmer Guy contribs 06:43, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

The bracket syntax is actually creating a link, but since it's a link back to the page you are on, it will appear bold. The apostrophe syntax is more proper.-- Wynthyst 06:54, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Uploading pics

I dont really understand how to upload pictures. Im trying to put an edited screenshot onto my userpage. How do I do this? I get a message saying the file is corrupt or something. Nalana Darkling 18:28, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Reading over m:Help:Images would be of great use to you. It's a very concise guide on all aspects of images, from uploading to putting on a page. Also take a look at GWW:IMAGE. Calor 18:32, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

I also think we might have a slight problem with our image database atm, people have reported problems with uploading images not too long ago. If you managed to upload a file but cannot show it on a page, it might help to just wait. If it says on the image page "corrupt file" or similar, tag it for deletion. A sysop will then delete it for you and make it possible to reupload a non-corrupt version. Hope that helps :) - anja 18:36, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

I actually figured it out myself, just need to check format (bmp's dont work, gotta convert to jpg) Thanks guys! :) Nalana Darkling 19:00, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Wiki spam

SO, with all the spam recently I say we block anonymous edits. For example, we can have a default user called 'gwwuser' with some random password. An idea? File:User Horsedrowner avatar.jpg horsedrowner 19:09, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

eh? Currently there is extreme less spam; and I don't like the idea to disallow good edits by anonymous users (GWW:AGF! :P) poke | talk 19:28, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

The majority of the actual 'spam' comes from registered users, not anons, and I also agree that blocking anons is just bad practice on a wiki that is this well monitored. -- Wynthyst 19:31, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Then it's just that spam now targets pages I watch... But if it wás really much, that could be an option. I've seen it at an other wiki. --File:User Horsedrowner avatar.jpg horsedrowner 19:38, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

If a page is being repeatedly vandalized (vandalism is different than spam btw), a request for temporary protection can be made on the Admin Noticeboard. However, this wiki is very well monitored by our very fine group of sysops, so vandalism is generally a very short lived and temporary problem.-- Wynthyst 19:45, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

I actually meant the spam by bots. I was looking at Hunted! for example.--File:User Horsedrowner avatar.jpg horsedrowner 19:50, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Gibber spam bots have very short shelf lives here :D -- Wynthyst 19:59, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, that edit only lasted 1 minute :P --File:User Horsedrowner avatar.jpg horsedrowner 20:01, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

(Edit conflict) We get very little spam, bots and vandalism in comparison to the constructive edits. The very nature of a wiki allows anyone to edit and assume good faith in doing so; if someone abuses that, they get blocked and reverted... which happens to spammers within a few minutes. -- Brains12 \ talk 20:02, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

And reverting does give us all something to do every now and then. Tests our reflexes :P. And, as others have said, if you listed constructive IP edits against malicious IP edits, then constructive list would be far longer. Calor 20:34, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Yep, other wikis have done it. And on all that I've seen, they actually have very little content. It only works when the wiki content is relatively stable and mostly complete, not when there's still a lot of room to grow. When I spot a typo or a problematic sentence on those wikis, I can't help them fix it because they require me to login, and I don't want to bother creating an account on a wiki that I'm probably going to edit only that one time. -- ab.er.rant 01:27, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

(Reset indent) Even though I missed the majority of this and would also prefer not to disallow anons from editing the wiki there was one thing that I was wondering. What about only doing it for the guild section and if it's at all possible only for the original creation of the page, its just that there seem to have been quite a large number of guild articles that I've deleted lately that are more or less exactly like this guild page or even some with less info. Also considering you need an account to be able to upload images and guilds normally want to upload an image of their cape at the very least having guild article creation restricted to only registered users could help to cut this number down. I'm not really bothered either way I just thought I would bring it up since lately I've seen/deleted tons of guild articles with a single anon edit and then left until tagged as inactive. Although this always gives me something to do lol. --Kakarot 02:33, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

How to make userboxes add members to categories

I noticed that many userboxes add you to a category if you use the code on your userpage (e.g. Users who play 2 hours per day). I've created several of my own userboxes, and I was wondering how I can make it so using those boxes will add members to a category. -- TERO talk 15:19, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

If you add the coding <includeonly>[[Category:name]]</includeonly>, it'll add the category inclusion, but it won't add the userbox template itself to the category. That way, any page using the userbox will be added to whatever category you choose, but the userbox page itself won't mess up the category. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 15:24, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

OK, gotcha. Thanks! -- TERO talk 17:59, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

Mass-posting counter

Checking recent updates, i just realized how simmilar some of our late vandals are in behavior to combo-posters on sites better to not be named. With that in mind, the question is: Is there any kind of protection that is implemented (or can be implemented) on the wiki for limiting the number of edits that can be done in a certain amount of time?. A limit of some kind (like edits every 15 seconds only for non-bots/admins) could prove to be helpful while not being a real problem for most common users.--Fighterdoken 18:06, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

Actually, it might be a problem. There are a few users (some of whom are not admins, or were once not admins) who can make multiple page saves within the span of a second ;) -- ab.er.rant 02:58, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Need some help on template

Hey all, I got a question. I took User:Lensor/Character tables and modified it a little. Result: User:Horsedrowner/Characterbox. Could someone check the code for errors? It seems the background with the image always uses the Any icon, and the Description box doesn't have a border. File:User Horsedrowner avatar.jpg horsedrowner 14:04, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

i don't think there's a code bug. use show preview; the preview will be prefectly correct. i've encountered this bug several times in the past two weeks, so maybe it has to do with the changes made to the wiki software, or it's a caching issue. - Y0_ich_halt 14:42, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

The background image was indeed a caching issue, but the border thing was a bug:

t}}; border 1px solid {{{{{p

t}}; border: 1px solid {{{{{p

Note the : File:User Horsedrowner avatar.jpg horsedrowner 14:53, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

ya, though i didn't even know there was a missing border. i thought it looked quite nice without and saved it mentally as intentional. - Y0_ich_halt 15:01, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Auto-redirect turned off

Heya, I somehow managed to turn off auto-redirecting. This means, if I click a link that is supposed to redirect me somewhere, I am not redirected but instead find myself in pages such as this one. I know I can enter the proper page by just clicking the link in these arcticles, but I'd like to turn auto-redirecting on again, however, I fail to find an option for this anywhere in my preferences. I recall having turned it off somewhere but I can't remember exactly where. Can anyone tell me where to do this, please? -Why? 14:17, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

As far as I know you can't turn off auto-redirection. Try clicking this link and tell me what happens since for me it redirects to Armor. --Kakarot 14:21, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

it's happening 2 me as well, it might be a mediawiki problem--Sum Mesmer Guy contribs 16:51, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

There's a known problem with image redirects that came with the recent MediaWiki upgrade, but that's on way to being fixed. As far as I know, there shouldn't be a software problem with normal article redirects (and those are working as usual for me). -- Brains12 \ talk 16:56, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

Hmm, it redirected me properly this time. Odd, I really thought I turned it off somewhere but I'm starting to have doubts now. The image redirects do not seem to work indeed. Thanks for replying anyway. -Why? 20:11, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

Updating an image

I have a picture of my character wearing armor I wore in the past. Now I want to update the image with my current armor. I went into the file's page and tried to update the picture by clicking "Upload a new version of this file." I uploaded the new image and it asked me if I was sure I wanted to overwrite the current image with the new image - to do this you needed to click Save. I clicked Save, thinking my new image would take the place of the old image. Well the old image is still there. Under history of the page it shows my two attempts at uploading the new image because I can see different image sizes. The old image is still showing even though it says the new image is set as the current. The page in question is here BOTNGiggles 23:30, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

The server's cache takes some time to update things like this, so you just need to wait a couple of minutes/hours. Meanwhile, you can check if the image was uploaded by comparing the values for dimensions and file size, since they will usually be different between the previous version and the new one.--Fighterdoken 23:33, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

Image Transparency Problems

Heya. I'm currently working on a table mockup at user:Star Weaver/sandbox#Table? and I'm running into a problem. I'll duplicate it here, too. These images draw with a black background (in IE6) when set to these sizes using a pipe in the image link: , Whereas when I use a different size (which is not the same different size for all images), I get either a white background . For a 'bullet' image use that's intended to be on a table with the standard white background, it looks horrible when it decides to use the black. Is there anything I can do about this? Thanks --Star Weaver 20:13, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Upgrade to a newer version of IE? Older versions of IE have always had trouble with multiple aspects of PNG images - it's an IE problem, not a problem with the images. (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 20:18, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Meh. I thought that the wiki was adding a background for some reason. Though I wonder where IE is pulling the background color from. I don't know if I want to do something that breaks wretchedly on IE6 as a billion people still use it, either. Hrm. --Star Weaver 20:49, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

This was discussed some time ago, and a workaround for IE6 that could be set serverside was found, but Poke dismissed it, and it ended there. I think there was also a way to adapt the fix to a user's account configuration file in the wiki (so it fixed it for you at least), but not really sure if it was on HELP:WIKI's archives, GWW:RFTA, or somewhere else.--Fighterdoken 21:18, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Something with classes

1. Can I have a table with multiple classes? For example, one with both "skill-box Warrior" and "expandable". Or "collapsible" on 2 different rows?
2. Is there a class (or any other method) to remove links from something? If I have a template, but don't want the links to be active.
3. Are there any other fun things to try out for me with wiki code? Recently found User:Y0_ich_halt/Guides/UPG :P

Thanks File:User Horsedrowner avatar.jpg horsedrowner 08:58, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

You can simply put multiple CSS classes separated by a space into the class attribute. So class="profession-bg Mesmer collapsible" would create a expandable table with the Mesmer icon as a background (Using the profession-bg class instead of skill-box is btw. better if you are not interested in the other formattings of the skill infobox). For the collapsible tables, you can see examples on how to mix it inside of one table on this page.

To remove links, you'll have to remove the links from the template.. poke | talk 14:58, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

time

the time parser function ({{#time:) seems to store the time when you save it, instead of changing with current server time. are there variables like {{CURRENTDAY} and stuff like that, just for time/hours/minutes, or (since the variables lists i found don't list any), walkaround solutions? i need it for User:Y0 ich halt/Templates/User Timezone. - Y0_ich_halt 08:56, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

User:BeXoR/Archive, there you have a date and time listing which shows different timezones. It seems she's using the parser function time, and it also seems to update quite frequently. You mean it didn't update properly for you? Does Bex's box update properly? - anja 10:57, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Put it into your preferences as [[Image:User -Koen- Signature.jpg]] and then show preview your signature on a page. It should give you a red link to upload it with. Just make sure it's marked as a user image.-- Wynthyst 17:43, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Well, you just edited a page, and you didn't break anything :D Commenting is really easy, you can just click the edit button and add your comment then.

From the very top of the wikipedia article Fighterdoken just linked to: "An Internet troll, or simply troll in Internet slang, is someone who posts controversial and usually irrelevant or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum or chat room, with the intention of baiting other users into an emotional response or to generally disrupt normal on-topic discussion." ¬ Wizårdbõÿ777(talk) 04:15, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

How do we address NPC professions?

By this, what I mean is... there are situations where we meet a NPC that may look like a certain profession due to wearing an armor set or carrying a weapon but we never know what skills that NPC uses since we never see him or her in action. For instance I was able to identify Kournan Engineer as an elementalist since I caught those NPCs casting Aura of Restoration upon themselves. But how do we know Royal Guard Bunda is a warrior? We never see him using any skills. There has been situations where a NPC appear to be one profession but uses skills from other professions such as Vael. So how are we to treat those NPCs? I see those all over the wiki labelled as that or this profession yet we don't know what skills they use. Do we use their armor and/or weapons as a clue or follow more purist path and label them as having no profession until we are able to determine what skills they use? Way back when EoTN came out I was in a minor revert war over certain NPCs and their professions so I'd like to avoid similar situations in future. – Barinthus 10:21, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

Either by their profession as displayed before their level (which happens sometimes) or by their skill usage (the Royal is maybe fighting later in the mission?). Otherwise it is just unknown. poke | talk 11:25, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

Ah yes I forgot about their name bars - will have to keep in mind to check those. As for the Royal, there's no skill listed on his wiki page so I have to assume he doesn't fight. But for now my approach is to leave things be until I absolutely know for sure the information is inaccurate. – Barinthus 15:46, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

NPCs cannot use armor sets in the first place. They have their own models, set at a per creature level. Those models may look similar to an armor set, but are unrelated.

As for identifying profs, tomes are good. There is also a skill that allows you to find out the elite of allies. We should have a project around that one, but I'm too lazy myself. Backsword 09:31, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Exactly re: armor - that's why I question how editors identify professions of NPCs when they do not use skills at all. And can you please clarify how using tomes help me to figure out a NPC's profession? And elite skills? Thanks – Barinthus 14:27, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

If they appear as an ally (possibly even as a targetable green?) in any combat area, use Arcane Mimicry on them, which will do for anyone who isn't a form-using dervish. --Star Weaver 15:34, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Skills as animated gifs

(Not exactly a wiki question, but it's related to the wiki, so...) User Jonny10 made this image, which I believe could be useful for players who are learning about the game, as a way to teach them what each casting animation looks like. However, I have no idea how to make such images - any suggestions for a simple way to do it? Erasculio 21:21, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

I believe Poke was working on a similar project, but with intentions being documenting, not instructing. He would know more than I would. Calor 21:29, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Well if there is progress with the Skill sounds documentation we could - in the same step - also think about documenting skill animations. But if my suggestion for a external player for the sound files is accepted, then I would prefer a player for the animations as well, as gifs look a bit bad :| poke | talk 21:33, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Nice, I remembered reading something about that project but I didn't know where to find it. Thanks, I'll begin a discussion there as well. Erasculio 21:44, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

professions

is there a place where i can sea the ratings of each profession? does the wiki have some suggestions on finding the balanced combination? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:66.91.101.245 (talk).

Articles about each profession often have a small summary and comparisons for secondaries with the choosen profession as primary, and there are some articles about builds that can be helpful, but besides of that i don't think you will find what you are looking for, since there is not "best" or "most balanced" option. Common advice is to just "play what you want" or "play them all until you find one you like" (for this, the Battle Isles is a good test location).--Fighterdoken 08:55, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Skill table for user pages

How can I make {{skill table}} work for {{user skill infobox}}? File:User Horsedrowner avatar.jpg horsedrowner 09:23, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

You can't. You'd need to write a new template. However, using the normal skill template in userspace is perfectly fine, bar the images. Is better updated too. Backsword 09:27, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Then what about the categories? Should I set campaign to user then or something? File:User Horsedrowner avatar.jpg horsedrowner 09:31, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

There will be none. That's intentional. Use the titlematch function instead. Backsword 09:38, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Missing Pictures

Once in a while I will come across a page (ie NPC or interactive object) and its image is missing and needs to be uploaded. How do I mark that page as needing an image so interested editors can become aware of it and possibility add an image? A template or a category or something? Thanks. – Barinthus 17:32, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

{{image needed}}

Note that many pages with infoboxes automatically categorize themselves into Category:Image needed if they don't have an image, so you don't nee to tag those. Check the categories at the bottom before tagging. (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 17:37, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Recent Changes Tweaks?

Hey ... Is there any way to get Recent Changes to wrap long lines better? I'm currently using the enchanted javascript version, and the wrapped long lines caused by new page head dumps or even some of my own longer change comments are really, really ugly and distracting. If there was a way to get them to indent an inch or two that would be wonderful ... Heck, I'd rather have a horizontal scrollbar myself.

Also, while I'm at it, is there any way to make the javscript version start with all the changes expanded by default? I love the grouping of changes but I usually want to see all them anyway. --Star Weaver 20:25, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

O_o ok, well, I did some CSS overrides testing at home since I have firefox/webdev and stuff there, and I'm not sure that there's a way to actually identifty the bits and change their properties with the html as stands, as essentially it's a giant DIV that contains a lot of lines with BRs, rather than using a seperate DIV or P for each line. Also, images and nbsps in fixed width used for spacing ... There dosn't happen to be a way I can do a user-override on the HTML generator like I can for the CSS and JS, is there? :D --Star Weaver 14:57, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

You could rework the whole thing with Javascript after it has loaded, but if that is even useful just to indent the text, I don't think so ;) poke | talk 15:35, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

Oog. I tend to be good enough with code to tweak stuff I see regardless of the language, at least a little (like changing the structure of output html), and I could probably do that in python, but learning enough javascript to reformat text in transit? *head esplody time* :D. --Star Weaver 15:41, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

Tho with CSS overrides I could just set the width of the containing div to 1500px or something and see if I can deal with the srollies. --Star Weaver 15:42, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

Question re: website promotion?

Heya, I have a question relating to website promotion on Wiki. Myself and quite a few others are due to launch Guild Wars Auctions this weekend to the global community. The site has had a 'soft launch' within our alliance over the past month, and it's been going really well. The Customer Support Team at NCSoft took a look at the site at our request, and were kind enough to wish us the best of luck...so we're ready to take the plunge and bring it to the community. I have a feeling that it might not be considered appropriate to promote a website, even a non commercial one, on wiki so I thought I should ask if there is an appropriate way to bring this to people's attention. I haven't included the website address in this question because I feel it would at odds with the underlying query. If you could let me know your thoughts I'd apprecite it :) --Bunny - Angel talk 13:05, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

See Fansite, List of fansites which seems to be kinda wimpy at the moment; Auction lists 3 auction sites already. GWW:FANSITES is the policy page, though clearly Auction isn't following it becuase of common sense :) though that seems to be about articles for specific fansites. Also, you can link to almost whatever on your userpage, or do soemthing like {{userbox|icon=SELL|info=This user works on auction site [http://whatever.foo name name].}} --Star Weaver 13:15, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Thank you, I have included the site in the list of Auction sites and the list of fansites, however according to the rules I see on GWW:FANSITES I believe it is saying that the website doesn't deserve it's own article until it has received recognition. The website isn't a fansite like 'forums' are, so I'm not sure if this will happen in the same way, so I will leave this for the time being. --Bunny - Angel talk 22:05, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Guild Page

I was wondering if you could explain how i create a wiki page for my guild, i researched it but am still not completely understanding how its done.--The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:DragonLordIIII (talk).

The easiest way to start, is to go into the game, press F10, and then click on the link that has your guild's name on it. A window will open on your browser with the exact page where you have to create the guild article, and a small template will show up where you can fill in some information about your guild. After that, you can expand it like any other article by following our guild pages policy and formatting guideline for guild pages.--Fighterdoken 05:18, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Actually, the in game link will open up the 'create a guild page' page. You need to put in your guild name exactly as it appears in game including capitalization. Then as Fighterdoken says, just fill in the information in the template. Please be sure to read over the guild page policy so you know what should and shouldn't be on your guild page.-- Wynthyst 05:29, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Changing TOC

Is it possible to change the colours of the TOC? and if yes can anyone tell me how can it be done. Thnx ^^ --MageMontu 09:07, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

You can potentially change how you view the TOC for every page via monobook.css, but you can't change it for just a single page (except your own, possibly) or for other users. (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 09:27, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

So it would only change how I view it. no 1 else would see it? --MageMontu 10:15, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

right. poke | talk 13:02, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

And just for reference, if you do want to change the TOC colors for yourself, then add this to your monobook.css page:

#toc {
    border: 1px solid #0900A9;
    background-color: #A2F3FF;
}

That example would make the border a dark blue, with a light-blue background color. Keep in mind, this change would only affect you, and it would also affect every TOC across the entire site, not just a single page, if that's what your aim is. (if you're trying to make the TOC match a color scheme on a single page, might I suggest __NOTOC__ on that page, and just make your own table of contents there.) -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 13:17, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Discussions in skill/classes/new event articles

Lately, discussing personal views about different skills, classes, or events (such as in-game activities, updates, etc) has become a common practice in articles on the wiki. Since most of these discussions often fill the talk pages with "active" threads (making them "useless" in the practice for discussing the documentation itself), i am curious about if there would be any problem in actively moving topics from these talk pages to more appropiate sections such as the Anet: namespace, when such topics were more of the "feedback" kind than about the documentation of what is being discussed. --Fighterdoken 06:31, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

That's what the {{moved}} template was made for. Backsword 17:05, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

That doesn't answer if it's appropriate or not. I personally think such discussions should stay, since it's the most visible page for people to visit when they have a topic to discuss. Only very few of our talk pages actually grow so large it can become a hindrance to discussion about the formatting/documentation. But, of course we can always put a link at the top of the talk page to the appropriate feedback page in the Anet namespace, to make it more visible. - anja 17:18, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Add class="expandable". Here is an example-- Wyn 23:02, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Delete incorrect page

I have accidentally made a page with the wrong heading for my guild. The wrong page has a full stop at the end of the url as in

http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Guild:Guildname.

instead of

http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Guild:Guildname

How do I remove the faulty page? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:PharonStrom (talk).

put a {{delete|<reason>}} tag on it. poke | talk 15:05, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
