Seems the Recent changes list has been changed somewhat, replacing the bolded N,m and red ! with dotted underlines.
Also noticed purple borders around all the media links when viewed through the ingame browser (chrome).

What media links are you referring to? --Xevo 18:54, April 26, 2011 (EDT)


I suspect he's referring to links around "no pic" files in templates - Tarnished Deneith Heavy Chain for instance. Yay for having the red ! back! (and I like the green N, to boot) LrdSlvrhnd 01:42, April 28, 2011 (EDT)


I had requested some version information from Xevo last week and he responded Sunday with:

On Monday I recieved, "I had a moment of temporary bravery and upgraded to the latest version (1.16.1)." In the next email I was also informed, "I just updated ParserFunctions to the latest version and enabled string functions." This may be the cause of the changes you are witnessing.. As I currently understand it, there may be more upgrades/updates in to come in the near future. ShoeMaker 06:39, April 26, 2011 (EDT)


I vote we go back to whatever version it was had the bolded m/NM and red ! if further updates don't put 'em back *g*→ LrdSlvrhnd 17:07, April 26, 2011 (EDT)


At this point its too late to go back. The jump from mediawiki version 1.15.* to 1.16.* required database schema changes. The only way to go back now would be from backup, and that would mean losing any changes since the backup. I'm sure there's a way to get the old style links back. I'll start looking into it. UPDATE - I figured it out :) --Xevo 18:48, April 26, 2011 (EDT)→ --Xevo 18:21, April 26, 2011 (EDT)
