[edit] Spell points

Ok, what did ya change to "my" Spell Point page? Error somewhere or just updating links and such? Nvm, I checked the recent changes page. Woot, I got added to Basic Info! Wait a minute, I'm only "basic"? /cry. :-P
Mad Bombardier 09:41, November 14, 2007 (EST)
Yeah, basic info is the category I use for the 'newbie' stuff. Basicly, any article that I find has reached a level of clearness and updateness is added to that category. When I'll get myself to edit the home page, the link to that category will be very important in it. For now, I use it to throw it to newbs that are clueless aboout the game, that, plus the d20SRD and the PnP differences... but that last page would need some loving!

[edit] Followup conversation

Hi Borror0,

Further to our discussion on the other talk page, I sure do use MSN, but don't have an active US acc, as I play on Devourer, a UK server. Can happily share MSN details though so we can chat on there to speak of this proposition of yours. My email for MSN is the same as the one in my user profile, you should be able to get those details, don't want to pop it in here! Thanks for unlocking that template! Should only take a moment for me to do the relevant, so by the time you get this, you can relock the temp if you want.

Thanks, Andy.

Hi Borror0,

As mentioned above, edits on the Quest template that I needed to do are complete, apologies that they're a little sloppy, did a cpl of revisions as it's the first time i've handed off a filename to a nested template. All sorted now though, so lock templates again at will. If you have a list of the variables on templates anywhere, I've just added mappic to Template:MissionInfoBox defaulting to No_Map.jpg if not provided, and added a handoff to Template:MissionInfoBox from Template:Quest. Feel free to add this to any list you keep!

Thanks, Andy.

Just email me (the Email this user at the right). It'll use your adress, so I'll know yours. I'm not too much of a fan of putting my adress up there. Or, you can just PM it to me on the EU forums. Account name is Borror0 there too.
Borror0 11:43, August 28, 2008 (EDT)
Can't email you from that link! Peerless mentioned the fact that the lack of receipt of confirmation emails from my registration is a bug, and so I don't have a confirmed email address, and it won't let me send an email as a result. Will send you a message now on EU forums at that username.

[edit] Unique items by type & Item enhancements

Hi Borror0, can we also include into the Wiki an additional field into item Templates? As an example Armor, add in what type of armor it is eg Full Plate, Studded Leather, etc. From there we could provide Unique items by type, people can go to a page and list all the unique rings on a page, another page can list all the unique full plate armor's, etc. Also noticed with the wiki that all the item enhancements lead to individual pages for the respective enhancement, to cut down on lots of pages and false links we could put all the enhancement descriptions on alphabetical or by type pages. Then just link to that part of the page, eg http://www.ddowiki.com/page/Enhancements_A#Absolute_Law or http://www.ddowiki.com/page/Enhancements_E#Enhancement_Bonus

RE: The item templates

Sure, no problem. If you don't know how to do it, ask me what you need and I'll get that done. If you know how to but the template is locked, let me know and I'll lower the security level. We used to have a little edit war so I increased the security on one of them but I can't remember which one.

RE: Item enchantments No, I don't want them on one page. While we could do both, there is three problems with putting them all on one page. First of all, it leads to a freaking big page and that is really annoying to browse. At least, with individual page a quick wiki search or Google search gives you the information you're after without then having to find it on a really, really big page. Secondly, big page tend to force us to omit some information while individual pages allow us to put all the information we need or want to put. It also really helps when explaining difficult enchantments like Blood Rage! Finally, while big page look can nice in tables, putting with ==headers== to be able to link to makes it very messy.

Short answer: We can also have a big page and have individual pages, but I want to keep the individual pages. (Though, we can merge similar effects. There is simply no reason to have different pages for each variance of Seeker or Vertigo.)

PS: The correct term for item enhancement is item enchantment (and it's less confusing, IMO). Ideally, I'd like to rename everything but that is a lot of work. I'm still considering if that is worthwhile.

PPS: Thanks for your contribution.

Yes Template::Unique armors is locked


As for the Item enchantments, every now and again I have been fixing up some of them. Like +1 Enhancement Bonus, just turning the Enhancement Bonus into a link instead of the whole +1 Enhancement Bonus. Although I'd like to turn them into a tooltip like you have with other bonuses.
UltraMonk 00:38, September 6, 2009 (EDT)
Unprotected and there is a template for the enhancement bonus, here It needs a name that follows the naming convention so I just duplicated the template to Template:Enhancement bonus. So use that one instead. We'll have to change it on the pages where it's currently used.
Borror0 00:54, September 6, 2009 (EDT)
No pages are using Template::EB anymore.

[edit] Contact me

Chat is already available. I'm paying for it monthly, I'm not sure why y'all aren't using it. The initiative to move to a new server died, because nobody was contributing to the new wiki, and the 'new owner' of the network disappeared soon after 'buying' it from me. I changed contact addresses, it's all available on the site linked from my userpage. Very busy, got to run. Yoko had me contact you. elliottcable (talk, site) 01:37, November 22, 2008 (EST)

[edit] Delete my articles

How can i delete my articles? sorry for such a noob question. if i need authorization to delete, will you please delete them for me? if you go to Recent Changes , it all those articles with QuestTabs on them. i was trying to do tabs like what i have on my user page but i messed it up. sorry . thnx man. btw, lets keep this wiki up, it'll be worth the growing pains. - Sef326 00:09, November 12, 2009 (EST)

Well, there is a Delete button at the top if you got the rights for that. If it's not there, that means I have to create a "request for deletion" template. If the button is more there, just list the pages you want me to delete. --Borror0 04:13, November 12, 2009 (EST)
thnx borror0 for giving me superuser priv - Sef326 23:31, November 13, 2009 (EST)

[edit] BAB & attack chains -- woot!

Kudos to you for tackling all the outdated tables of these. I'd been procrastinating on that from the annoying amount of busywork involved.

I wanted to die halfway through for how tedious it was. Eh, at least it's done now! --Borror0 20:45, November 15, 2009 (EST)
