New guild article template
Would like to consider using Template:Guild as the preloading template for new guilds. - Highway 16:30, December 27, 2006 (EST)


 * Why? There is already one - Template:Guild_article that works perfectly well. (-: [e]  ·  t  &  c  17:54, December 27, 2006 (EST)

Too long listing
The guild listing is way too long, specially as its the first thing you see. this kind of listing would owrk for "list all guilds" but not as entry listing. Break down the guilds per servers for entry page that would lead to page having list of all guilds on that specific server. BlackSmith 08:18, July 24, 2007 (EDT)
 * I agree it's too long. Should be seperated in different page, I'll try to do that after the merge. Borror0 12:15, July 24, 2007 (EDT)

Too agressive guild editing.
If guild can't put up their stats & story in a way that looks like them, it does temptate to use these pages either. If all guild pages look like excel charts, i rather skip to some more fluent and not-so-wrist-tided-up site like GuildUniverse. Besides, if the guild's page is hard to read or cryptic, its their loose not ddo.wiki's. BlackSmith 15:24, July 26, 2007 (EDT)

Add something.PNG as guild's coat of arms/picture.
Able to put a coat of arms/picture about the guild would be nice. BlackSmith 15:24, July 26, 2007 (EDT)
 * Coat of arm? What do you mean? Borror0 00:17, July 27, 2007 (EDT)
 * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PNG http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coat_of_arms / http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picture Seems the youngsters get more helpless year after year. BlackSmith 06:50, July 27, 2007 (EDT)


 * Haha, very funny. Add them to your page if you want, it's possible top add pictures to the page. Borror0 12:14, July 27, 2007 (EDT)


 * He's asking what you mean by coat of arms, in relation to your guild. Is there a feature in DDO to create a coat of arms for your guild, or is this something that is unique to your guild and solely to your guild? 21:10, July 27, 2007 (EDT)


 * Well, I'm more asking if that's very common, because I've been in only in a guild, and that guild is mine so I don't know about it. Never heard of coat or arms, so yeah, I'm asking if it is unique to your guild. Borror0 21:23, July 27, 2007 (EDT)


 * Ok, rephase. "It would be nice if the guild pages would have (PNG) image place for the guilds banner/cape/carnial/coat of arms/torc/sign/image-representing-the-guild in upper right corner, just like you can have a picture about your character displayed." I don't know where to find the guild pages source code so i can't chagne it. BlackSmith 05:44, July 28, 2007 (EDT)

Inactive leadership...
Backley (talk) and myself have both made post to the forum to try and clear up and get some accurate information on this topic.. Hoping we hear back soon, especially since my guild is currently in situation where this information will become vital as to the direction of the guild!! :-0 ShoeMaker 17:45, May 19, 2011 (EDT)


 * I am creating a dummy guild on a server that I don't play now to test what is implemented as we speak.. Will get back to you on the results in a couple hundred days... follow *sigh* -- ShoeMaker (Contributions &bull; )


 * I did make that guild, and was able to usurp leadership from an alternate account with officer status after 90ish days iirc. -- ShoeMaker (Contributions &bull; ) 11:47, February 6, 2013 (EST)

Guild Template Updated
http://compendium.ddo.com/wiki/Template:Guild

is now fully functional. corrected missing / incomplete directions along with replaced static text with variables --


 * Why are you mentioning this here? DDO wiki currently has a "no guild pages" policy. -- ShoeMaker (Contributions &bull; ) 11:53, February 6, 2013 (EST)


 * hes trying to motivate people to post guild article on the Compendium, not on this DDOwiki, i think? his guild page is well done but said template used on that WILL BE DESTRIYED by a clueless user sooner or later like many times happened before, since its not edit-locked nor maintained by anybody. i myself tried to fix some of the mess before   but oh well what can i say. i ended up doing page of my guild (at the time) without using any template. if you are reading this Uurlock, i highly recommend doing your page that way, though server board guild section is much much better bet to get attention IMO. btw category bleeding on the Compendium guild section is absolutely horrendous too... --yoko5000 (Contributions &bull; Message) 03:28, February 7, 2013 (EST)
 * Thanks Yoko - Uurlock. Guess all that is now moot with the death of the ddo compendium / my.ddo.com.
