T:Wizardry
Hi, your latest update of T:Wizardry breaks categorization for Magi items (and perhaps others). See Category:Magi_Wizardry_items. Why the change? -- Cru121 (Contribs • Message • Email ) 03:45, June 16, 2016 (EDT)
 * The change is due to the way that Turbine non-retroactively changed wizardry so values are now the old AM/M/roman or the new decimal. I'll update the template again because I still don't like the format of the categorizations. ShoeMaker (Contribs • Message • Email ) 09:57, June 16, 2016 (EDT)

T:Content Out of Service
There's seems to be an unnecessary line break above the box. See https://s19.postimg.org/qwa3bx64z/coos.png -- Cru121 (Contribs • Message • Email ) 07:03, June 16, 2016 (EDT)
 * There doesn't seem to be a line break in the code of the template itself. See http://i64.tinypic.com/2q1cva8.jpg ShoeMaker (Contribs • Message • Email ) 09:23, June 16, 2016 (EDT)
 * Commenting out the line break helped, at least in my browser, so yay! :) -- Cru121 (Contribs • Message • Email ) 11:43, June 16, 2016 (EDT)

New template for traps and locks
I saw you were creating a new template to keep numbers consistent in the OL/DD tables, and I noticed it had been a while since it got last updated. I didn't want to edit an existing template in case I messed it up so, based off the one you started, I created a template at JDDRoll and test calls can be seen at the bottom of my user page. Hope this helps. JonDDavies (Contribs • Message • Email ) 09:47, September 5, 2016 (EDT)
 * I don't understand what the purpose of T:JDDRoll is. First, if it is a sandbox template to suggest improvements, it should either be on T:Roll result/sandbox or T:Roll result/JonDDavies or U:JonDDavies/Roll result or even U:JonDDavis/sandbox.  Second, I see no real difference when looking at  side-by-side. In fact the "official" version has much more processing built into it based on the rules to return a better result.  Let me know what you want to accomplish and I'll happily help you (I'm working on a few very large scale projects at the same time right now, so time has been thin (why there has been no wiki talk and will be no wiki talk for a few more weeks while I set things up), but I'll help you with what I can so you can do your work to help the wiki. ). ShoeMaker (Contribs&thinsp;•&thinsp;Message&thinsp;•&thinsp;Email ) 10:57, September 5, 2016 (EDT)
 * The point of JDDRoll was to tidy up the if statements which appear in Roll Result. The removal of the two formulas was deliberate because those should be used in the "suspected DC range" column, not the "Roll result" column.  Also, one of the formulas was wrong anyway.  I did it as a separate template because, as I already explained, I didn't want to mess up someone else's hard work whilst I was attempting to tidy up the coding.  As all I appear to have done is waste my time, I won't bother in future. JonDDavies (Contribs • Message • Email ) 12:22, September 5, 2016 (EDT)
 * Roll result and suspected DC range are going to be merged into one, that's the whole point of the new templates. Putting your ideas on a separate page is fine, but it should be a subpage in your userspace or of the existing template for consistency. Time spent working on a project and learning is never time wasted. ShoeMaker (Contribs&thinsp;•&thinsp;Message&thinsp;•&thinsp;Email ) 17:07, September 5, 2016 (EDT)

Welcome!! Thanks for your hard work editing DDOwiki!!!

T:Enhancement bonus
I noticed that you changed Legendary Wild Flame (and a few other pages) from: to: in your recent stream using  .
 * Spellcasting Implement +29

The reason I had it as it was originally is because   gives the wrong Implement bonus of +45 (the actual item is +29). I could find no way of getting these values using the template and instead opted for "coding them in" by hand. Is this something that can changed in the template itself, or should we continue to use  Spellcasting Implement +29  instead of the template for weapons with implement bonuses that don't match with T:Enhancement bonus? &rArr; Clemeit (Contribs • Message • Email ) 16:34, April 18, 2018 (EDT)
 * T:Enhancement bonus needs to be fixed. Pages with Implement bonuses should use the correct template and not be manually bypassed or things will break when the template is fixed.  It's fine.  &#x1f45f;&thinsp;ShoeMaker (Contribs&thinsp;•&thinsp;Message&thinsp;•&thinsp;Email )&thinsp;&#x1f45f; 20:44, April 18, 2018 (EDT)
 * Solid, thanks dude. &rArr; Clemeit (Contribs • Message • Email ) 21:23, April 18, 2018 (EDT)
 * This has actually now been "fixed" - see Talk:Implement Bonus for details. &rArr; DDOstream (Contribs • &uArr; top &uArr; • Email ) 09:33, April 25, 2018 (EDT)

level 20 heroic quests
Dear DDOstream, dreaming dark and tod are heroic quests in all aspects. Rules for epic quests do not apply to them. Heroic characters can enter them. Epic Ward does not apply to them. DDO has some level 20 quests which are heroic and some that are epic. -- &rArr; Cru121 (Contribs • Message • Email ) 11:48, July 4, 2018 (EDT)
 * We'll be doing away with manual separation for heroic, epic, and legendary quests in the near future. It's a moot point. &rArr; DDOstream (Contribs • &uArr; top &uArr; • Email ) 11:51, July 4, 2018 (EDT)

please update, test, and document templates first, then update item pages
T:Stunning does not support bonus type. Maybe first update the templates to support the extra parameters. Then test your changes via examples on the template page. Update the usage. And then you can consider migrating items to use the new template. Thanks. -- &rArr; Cru121 (Contribs • Message • Email ) 11:47, October 3, 2018 (EDT) Just please don't leave the wiki in worse state than it was before your edits. Don't make other people work to restore the functionality that you accidentally destroy. That is all. Thanks. &rArr; Cru121 (Contribs • Message • Email ) 13:16, October 3, 2018 (EDT)
 * I'm sorry, where did I indicate that Stunning accepted a bonus type? I don't see it in Stunning  anywhere.  Thanks! &rArr; DDOstream (Contribs • &uArr; top &uArr; • Email ) 11:51, October 3, 2018 (EDT)
 * You are attempting to use the parameter, for example in Item:Mythic_Bone_Crusher.-- &rArr; Cru121 (Contribs • Message • Email ) 11:55, October 3, 2018 (EDT)
 * , ... I just removed the "Tactics". &rArr; DDOstream (Contribs • &uArr; top &uArr; • Email ) 12:10, October 3, 2018 (EDT)
 * The wiki is in a better state than before my edit because a meta template was eliminated. It's okay if you don't want to admit you made a mistake, that is fine.  LOL  &#x1f45f;&thinsp;ShoeMaker (Contribs&thinsp;•&thinsp;Message&thinsp;•&thinsp;Email )&thinsp;&#x1f45f; 18:43, October 3, 2018 (EDT)
