User:Meander

About Time, meander!
All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
 * "The Riddle of Strider" J.R.R. Tolkien

Who am I?
Heh, my goodness, existential question right off the bat, huh?
 * I...
 * am an ardent screen-shot taker and will be adding visuals wherever I can.
 * enjoy the flavor of dialog and lore in-game so much that I have been known to compose fiction and stomach-churning rhyme featuring guildmates and NPC's.
 * have zero understanding of how a wiki is created, maintained or edited. So I look forward to the learning!

Move in and get comfortable! Gonna be here a while=P.

 * 1) Links - still learning from Help page
 * 2) notes, colors in background, popups, zero margins, line breaks
 * 3) can gifs be loaded? →  Yes
 * 4) how do I use a picture as a link?  Like an ingredient pic to an ingredient page? Button pushers! → filename.png or   —→ More help on Help:Images

 * Farshifters to add
 * Collectors

Renovate Shops/Vendors

 * NPC Category for Challenge Traders needs to be made (Shops or Utility? not sure)
 * Pawn Vendors got them all?
 * Arcane Vendors  Keep going...

Monster Hunter

 * 1) Get a list of the monsters without mugshots and go get them! Poke-wiki, gotta catch them all.

Things I have learned:

 * 1) Random page generator has been good to just meander and fix stuff or find things that need pictures.  This is a good way to get used to wiki practices.
 * 2) Enlarged font in the game so it can be read more easily when I take pics.
 * 3) Total newb error - check to see if you are logged in before you save, and DON'T try to login without copying.  When you come back, nothing will be there. =(.
 * 4) There are different types of apostophe's.  Make sure you know which one is being used. Lefty-slant backtick is under the tilde on my keyboard.  Beware, someone may be using it. The usual one > '   and the Impost(er)rophe!--->`
 * 5) Fiddling around with User page is not a bad way to figure out how to use the editing tools.
 * 6) When starting a page through a red-link, be sure the spelling is correct.  ie NPCs renamed within an NPC template will still have the faulty spelling as the link.
 * 7) There is an endless number of things to do, so just keep on swimming, keep on.
