Revision as of 13:31, 28 May 2016

Item Pages

Thanks for helping to document items on Elanthipedia. When posting appraisal values, please include commas in values of 1,000 or more. For example, 55,000 instead of 55000. Thanks! -ISHARON (talk) 16:51, 14 May 2016 (CDT)

Also, when an item has no description ("You see nothing unusual."), you just need to put a "-" in the look description, not the actual line. Thank you for all the archive help! --TEVESHSZAT (talk) 17:08, 21 May 2016 (CDT)

Appraisal Values

I get what you're saying, but the template is only set up to accept appraisals in copper kronars, and the Manual of Style calls for putting commas in all prices and appraisal values of 1,000 or more. (This has been the standard for years.) --ISHARON (talk) 19:36, 21 May 2016 (CDT)


Edits

Please be careful to not replace edits made by other people with yours when yours aren't 100% accurate. --TEVESHSZAT (talk) 13:57, 28 May 2016 (CDT)

Just a general message about being careful. The blue-white ice-veined leathers with silver buckles‎ update entry you made changed them to just chest armor and the Mistwood steppe bow embedded with arcane icesteel symbols update you made removed the blanking out of them having no damage stats (since they're a bow). --TEVESHSZAT (talk) 14:14, 28 May 2016 (CDT)
