"What to climb" tables

I made a few adjustments to the ClimbTable and ClimbItem templates, to make the tables sortable and clean up excess line breaks. --Farman 12:54, 4 November 2007 (CST)

Hey! Nice work! I was driving myself crazy trying to get rid of that extra line break on the last column of the tables. --Kraelyst 17:37, 4 November 2007 (CST)

Yeah, it was the difference between this:

</noinclude>
<includeonly>

and this:

</noinclude><includeonly>

in the code for ClimbItem and ClimbTable. At first I thought it was a bug, but after thinking about it, it makes perfect sense. Anything not enclosed in <noinclude> tags will be part of the code, so that line break after </noinclude> was part of the template. Wikicode can be damned maddening at times :P --Farman 22:55, 4 November 2007 (CST)

ClimbItem and ClimbTable templates have been combined into the {{ListHeader}} and {{ListItem}} templates. These work identically to the old climbing/swimming templates, except that they also work equally well for Swimming and Escaping (once we set up a list for that skill, that is.) Also got rid of that annoying newline bug once and for all, which was caused by the noinclude/includeonly tags between the two templates.--Symphaena 22:45, 19 April 2008 (CDT)

New system

Any idea yet how the Top Cap values apply to the new Practice system? The boulder in Haven west wilds (assuming the one near the gap to the tunnels) is apparently too simple for me to practice on, and I've only 66 ranks. Though climb and move on still nets me some decent learning on the steps, ladders, and mound inside Haven. FuIru 21:48, 29 October 2008 (CDT)

Map Links

Added a few links to Ranik's Maps. Originally I was going to match the map links to the location column as was already in place in the Ratha section, but then I noticed the Swimming skill article had the links on the far left column. In the interests of aesthetics and internal consistency, I decided to mimic that article's layout. Not sure of some of the locations and which map to use, walls/embrasures/crenellations in particular. Also I know little about the Qi and Forfedhdar so I'm not inclined to hunt for the map links on those climbables (many of which seem to missing from the list in this article anyway).

CLIMB PRACTICE as Limit for Items

What do you folks think about using the "Too easy"/"Too hard" messaging in CLIMB PRACTICE to rank climbing items. -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi^(talk) 11:09, 22 March 2010 (UTC)

CLIMB PRACTICE for climb difficulty listing on the main Climbing Page

I tend to use climb practice for training, and have done so almost exclusively since it's release. One thing that I think would be nice would be columns showing the information on the same areas to climb. If I had thought about this sooner, I would have started checking triviality/ability to climb practice from the beginning, but if anyone thinks this would be a help and wants to start, I know the Willow Tree just outside the North Crossing Gate was suddenly too easy at 36 ranks, so its top is going to be right around 35. I also know the Arthe Dale Oak Tree got trivial just a slight bit sooner. The Quarry Chute and Cliff on Temple Hill outside Crossing is still too difficult at 36 ranks as well; I'm presently looking for something in the area that'll work. Again, I don't know if anyone wants to do anything with this, but I'd be more than happy to help fill it in from a recently rolled character's perspective if it gets started. --Aristrondr 03:30, 22 November 2010 (UTC)
