==Armor Template==

The new protection, absorption, and hindrance ranges for body armor are now live. (Shield protection is still on a separate scale, which has not changed.) I recommend changing the armor template so that it accepts new and old scales (but flags old scales as outdated), which is similar to the current Weapon template. --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 19:37, 17 July 2011 (UTC)

==Weapon Forging Templates==

What kind of syntax would you suggest for weapon templates? Multiple weapon types use the same template, and it would make sense to link them all together and not make them dependent on the name. Let me know what you think works best so I can start flowing in data. —[[User:TEVESHSZAT|TEVESHSZAT]] 19:04, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

...I'm going to have to think about that. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 19:10, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

Alrighty. Just let me know whatever system you prefer. I was thinking something like Weapon:Forged_TYPE_PRIMARYDAMAGE_SUITED_VOLUME could possibly work. So, for example, the template used by the Briquet/Dagger/Misericorde would be Weapon:Forged_le_puncture_balance_2. There might be some times we'd have to do something like an _(1) or _(2) for some templates, but I don't think it would be too terrible. —[[User:TEVESHSZAT|TEVESHSZAT]] 21:05, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

: Okay, set it up like this Weapon:Forged ''<template>''
:: The template can be your choice of whichever of them you like, but also mention in the article it covers the other templates, and set up redirects. We'll try that for now. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 21:11, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

==Template:ItemProperties==

I would like item pages to say, "This item's type is unknown" when the type field is blank. --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 22:05, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
: While in theory I could add it, it would just about double the size of the template, and double the amount of work it would take with each update. So.... no. :P -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 22:21, 20 June 2011 (UTC)

==Forum Post Properties==

For some reason, when I tag a post as being about "PvP," it doesn't list that under the "Facts about" section. However, if I go to the [[PvP]] article, the post is archived there. --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 19:13, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
: That is bizarre. And I can't figure out why. ''sigh'' -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 07:41, 10 June 2011 (UTC)

==New Forum Posts==

Now that the Play.net forum has been moved, what do you want to do with the Forum field? Previously, we placed the board number after the category and topic, but the forum no longer uses numbers. Should we just omit the numbers from now on (for example, Discussions with DragonRealms Staff and Players \ Game Master and Official Announcements? --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 18:56, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
:Also, the date format on new posts is a bit different. There are now zeroes before single-digit times (for example, "06/01/2011 05:42 PM CDT"). ----[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 19:09, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
:: Eh, omit the forum folder numbers and just keep the times as the forum displays. Easier to copy and paste that way. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 23:13, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
:::It looks like the forum post time no longer displays the second, so it is theoretically possible (though unlikely in practice) for two different posts to have the exact same page name. --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 06:48, 3 June 2011 (UTC)

==Mining==

Two things: could you remove my BOT status? I haven't really had the chance to move much DFP stuff recently, been busy for a while.
Also, what is spoiler-ish about the mining section? Would it be possible to just move the spoilers to a secondary article? --[[User:Leito|Leito]] 01:38, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
: Sure.
: It's spoiler-ish, because I put the page up right when mining came out. It was a warning to people who wanted to PAFO. I'll remove it in a couple more days. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 01:44, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

==Guildfest 401==

Would you mind adding [[Guildfest 401]] to the "Improvement Drive" section of the home page? Thanks!----[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 08:54, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
:The current drive section lists "Guildfest 401" in May '''2010'''. This should be changed to May '''2011'''. ----[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 17:30, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

==Template:ItemProperties==

When you select "writing" as the item type, nothing appears in the completed item. I think it should say something like "This item is a writing implement or something that can be written on." --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 05:59, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
: Turns out that's cause I hadn't added support for it. Huh, I wonder why. Anyways, fixed. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 09:21, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
::Any way you could add something for "anatomy chart?" It's a listed property, but the completed item doesn't say what it is if you use it. See, e.g., [[Item:Silverfish anatomy chart]]. --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 06:38, 15 May 2011 (UTC)
:::I could, but at this point, I'd actually be inclined to remove that option. It doesn't seem like they're variable enough in form to need to have their own tag. In fact, I suspect I might have removed it from the template and forgot to remove it from the form and property. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 07:07, 15 May 2011 (UTC)
I would like the item pages to say when an item cannot be worn. Thanks! (<nowiki>wearloc=-</nowiki>) ----[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 23:58, 20 May 2011 (UTC)
: Done. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 00:25, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

==Post Form==

I have no idea why, but every time I try to create or edit a post with the form, I get the following error: --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 18:43, 9 May 2011 (UTC)<br>
<blockquote>'''Fatal error''': Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in '''/home/khodges/public_html/w/extensions/SemanticForms/includes/SF_FormPrinter.inc''' on line '''291'''</blockquote>
: Fixed. Oops. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 04:07, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

==Item Template: Read==

It would be nice if there were a dedicated field for item reads. --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 00:53, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
:The default (-) value would be ''There is nothing there to read.'' --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 00:53, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
:: It could be done, but that seems like it might just be another step to template overload. Do you really see a huge need for it? -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 04:14, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
:::It would just make it easier to generate forms (especially by script). --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 04:39, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
::::Mmmmmm, lemmie see. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 04:41, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
:::::(The main issue with my [[Elanthipedia Items (script)|Elanthipedia Items script]] is that the look ends at the end of the line, and reads are on a separate line. I can't capture that with one regular expression.) --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 04:50, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

==Ampersands in Post Page Names==

How should we handle post titles that contain the ampersand (&)? It seems to be cutting off everything after the ampersand. For example, [[Post:Crossbows & Tinkering - 4/30/2011 - 8:32:54]]. (See how it redirects from [[Post:Crossbows]].) --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 22:46, 30 April 2011 (UTC)
: It has to do with the & being used as a control character by the wiki in addresses. If necessary, just replace it with "and." -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 00:00, 1 May 2011 (UTC)

==Shield Template Bug==

The shield form is missing at least one value (incredible). Here is the shield appraisal scale:
#very poor
#poor
#rather low
#low
#fair
#better than fair
#moderate
#moderately good
#good
#very good
#high
#very high
#great
#very great
#impressive
#very impressive
#tremendous
#'''incredible'''
#god-like
--[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 22:28, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
: Fixed. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 22:51, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
::I see the option in the shield form, but on the [[Shield:Crescent-shaped steel tower shield embossed with a horn-of-plenty and a cluster of ripe red grapes|finished shield page]], it shows up as "''Unknown'' protection." --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 01:18, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
::: Okay, now it's fixed. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 07:41, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
::::Now "incredible" is showing up as "Tremendous (10/11) protection." (See above item.) --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 08:07, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
::::: No it doesn't. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 08:19, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
::::::It's showing up as incredible now, but is there a reason that the Paladin-only values aren't considered part of the scale? Incredible should be 18/19, not 10/11. --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 18:59, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
::::::: Because the vast majority of shields are not paladin appraised, and I want them to still be as accurate as possible when attempting comparisons. For example, if you tried to find all shields better or equal to a paladin level, it would miss many of the shields that were actually that, but not listed as such. Thus, the Paladin more specific appraisals are the same rank as the value a normal person (no, Paladin's aren't normal) would appraise it at. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 00:41, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

==Reference Tag Bug?==

When I use the <nowiki>{{RefAl}}</nowiki> tag, something is wrong with the formatting. The "Related Forum Posts" and "Also See" sections are not recognized as headers. --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 18:10, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
: I know, and I've been trying to figure out why. Gimmie a bit. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 22:10, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
: Fixed. I know what I had to do to fix it, but I don't know why it had to be done. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 10:00, 30 April 2011 (UTC)

==Item Template: Fest Items==

Does the item template still support the fest= tag, and should we be filling that out? It's not in the form when you click "create/edit with form." --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 22:57, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
: Nope, it's superceded by the rare= tag. Thought, it technically will work, since I didn't want to have to track down the ones I'd tagged fest. I also, more or less meant it as an advanced option... though that doesn't seem so smart now that I think about it. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 09:20, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
::If you still want us to flag things as rare (fest, auction, etc.), can you add a rare field to the "create/edit with form" option to the weapon, shield, armor, and item pages? (This field is useful if you're using the query pages.) I think that the main reason that it hasn't been added to more items is that people don't know that the information is requested. --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 18:17, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
::: Rareness is automatically populated for festival store weapons as long as the source store is set as a festival store. That field is reserved for odd source equipment, such as auctions or quest which the system doesn't understand. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 22:10, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
::::Is rare automatically set to ''no'' for items whose source is set to a permanent shop? --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 22:45, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
::::: It SHOULD be, but I'm not sure if it is. I don't remember whether I figured out an easy way to do it. I'll check when I have a moment. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 22:49, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

==Spell Template==

Can there be an option to designate something as a [[metaspell]] (for [[Magic 3.0]])? --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 08:09, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
:On second thought, perhaps a separate metaspell template would be better.--[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 08:43, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

==Bug With Brawling Template==

When the puncture/slice/impact type variable is set to No, the page looks like the puncture/slice/impact damage info is missing.

For example: [[Weapon:Gold elbow spikes]]

Appraisal:
<blockquote>
You are certain that it could do:<br>
no puncture damage ''increase''<br>
quite a bit of slice damage<br>
quite a bit of impact damage
</blockquote>

Form Values:
<blockquote>
|puncture=none<br>
|puncturetype=Yes<br>
|slice=quite a bit<br>
|slicetype=No<br>
|impact=quite a bit<br>
|impacttype=No<br>
</blockquote>

Page says:
<blockquote>'''Puncture:''' none<br>
'''Slice:''' ''Unknown''<br>
'''Impact:''' ''Unknown''</blockquote>
<br>
The "Facts about" item box at the bottom is also missing damage stats. --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 00:36, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
: Yea I know. The problem is that I can't set up the template till I have information on how they relate. Is "quite a bit" better or worse than "some?" -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 00:47, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
: I've fixed it so it will display, but without more information on how brawling weapons compare, I can't do much more. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 01:57, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
::Thanks. Is there any way that the display could add (increase) when "the damage is the special brawling increase type"? For example:

<blockquote>'''Puncture''': none (increase)<br>
'''Slice''': quite a bit<br>
'''Impact''': quite a bit</blockquote> --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 15:32, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
: Sure. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 21:08, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

==Whitelisting URLs (CAPTCHA Bypass)==

Is there a way that certain URLs can be added to a whitelist so that contributors don't have to complete a CAPTCHA when these links are posted? [[User:Leito|Leito]] brought it to my attention that he has to go through CAPTCHA every time he adds the DFP tag. --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 20:13, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

==Leading Articles (Items)==

Currently, ''a'', ''an'', and ''some'' are leading articles that are not included in page names or item names. However, other potential articles are not treated consistently. For example, in some items, "a pair of" and "a set of" are treated as leading articles, but in others they are not.<br>
<br>
Do you have a full list of leading articles that should be excluded from page names? --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 17:35, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
: To be honest, I have no idea why people have decided to leave out the "pair of" etc, but I've been too lazy to do anything about it. On one hand, it is part of the item, but on the other hand, it doesn't add much to the info.
: What's your opinion? -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 19:11, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
::Ignoring the amount of work that it would require to make all of these items consistent, I would only count ''a'', ''an'', and ''some'' as leading articles. Phrases like "a pair of" are not articles (grammatically speaking); they're quantities. Unless we exclude all "leading quantities" from page names, we'd have to decide which to include and which to exclude, and that would breed inconsistency.<br>
::It seems that more of the items that I've looked at omit "pair of" and "set of" than include those terms, so it would be more work to add those terms than remove them. Another issue is that many of the store pages also omit these articles, so it may not be immediately obvious which pages need to be edited. --[[User:Isharon|Isharon]] 20:27, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
:::I agree, include them from now on, and I'll work on updating the old ones where possible. -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 20:28, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

PC Template

Would you mind adding a status (y/n/r) to indicate whether the PC is active, dead, or retired? Some PCs have been killed off, and their players would like to indicate this in the infobox. Thanks! --Isharon 05:56, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

Done. -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi(talk) 11:39, 30 November 2011 (UTC)
Doesn't seem to be working. In fact, I have grown a weirdness on some PC pages. "Status {{#if: | " I attempted adding this field but it does not result in a normal look to the field, just gives the addition of a letter before the bar |. The forms for PC and the help pages should be updated, also, once this field is working properly. I do not have sufficient access to edit those.  :) --Steph 12:51 PM Wednesday, November 30, 2011 (UTC)
The display is not working correctly. I changed "alive" to "active" (to contrast with retired). Would you consider moving the status line from the top to beneath the "instance" line? Thanks! --Isharon 17:55, 30 November 2011 (UTC)
Oops. Fixed. -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi(talk) 20:06, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

Weapon Template

If the weapon template hasn't been updated recently, the damage scale has changed. The correct scale is listed here. --Isharon 20:31, 17 October 2011 (UTC)

The highest damage is no longer called "god-like." Instead, it is "catastrophic." --Isharon 20:44, 17 November 2011 (UTC)

....well #^^#$^#$. If I update the weapon template, we're going to have issues with slowdowns like before... I think I'll wait on it a week or so. Let the folks finish updating the fest stuff. Remind me in a week if I forget. <mutter> -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi(talk) 00:53, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
Should be all updated now. Lemmie know if I missed anything. -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi(talk) 11:49, 30 November 2011 (UTC)
