Talk:What is the plan, if any, for the new Crystal Cove items?

Since they preserved the old recipes, we now have items of the exact same name in the game but with different stats. I recently uploaded a bunch of images of the new stuff, but I don't know what to do with it. I can't replace the old images because they are still quite valid. &rArr; Niminae (Contribs • Message • Email ) 05:39, August 5, 2018 (EDT)
 * Probably use the precedent, look at . Bunch of admins were moving around pages so hopefully this is ok. I could also see one page, for example Swashbuckler or Item:Swashbuckler, which would include both the old and the new descriptions. -- &rArr; Cru121 (Contribs • Message • Email ) 06:00, August 5, 2018 (EDT)
 * The plan is... The old versions are tiered by level and the new versions are not.  So, if we follow the naming convention the new items will be, using Item:Swashbuckler as an example:




 * The old items will have to be moved to the following naming convention:








 * This will allow for all of the, currently available, versions to be listed and allow proper categorization and DPL queries to work as desired without template changes. Once all of the sub pages are created, we'll be able to create/edit the main overview page for the item, , to be a proper overview with all the versions listed and full details.  &#x1f45f;&thinsp;ShoeMaker (Contribs&thinsp;•&thinsp;Message&thinsp;•&thinsp;Email )&thinsp;&#x1f45f; 10:24, August 5, 2018 (EDT)
 * Would it be easier (and make more sense, and be more internally consistent) to just have "Swashbuckler (Level 4) (Tiered)" etc., since the pages are already set up having the tiered all together, and that's how it's done with other tiered items (Cannith Challenges, Fall of Truth, CitW, etc.)? Or is it planned to expand all those out to individual pages as well?  And if we do go full-bore with the individual pages, IMHO it makes more sense to have "Item (Level) (Tier)" rather than "Item (Tier) (Level)". &rArr; LrdSlvrhnd (Contribs • Message • Email ) 02:05, August 6, 2018 (EDT)
 * Not at this time, we don't have the extension needed to put three versions of an item on a single page in an aesthetic manner. I don't recommend adding the extension that would allow it either.  It makes more sense to just wait for  to upgrade the MW: core above 1.27 (IIRC) that will allow us to have a slideshow gallery.  Once that is available, then I'd have no issue with merging all of the page versions into Item: (tiered)(level ##) and setting up the galleries.  &#x1f45f;&thinsp;ShoeMaker (Contribs&thinsp;•&thinsp;Message&thinsp;•&thinsp;Email )&thinsp;&#x1f45f; 07:56, August 7, 2018 (EDT)

Crafting interfaces
The cove loot is currently transcluded from two barter interfaces, Euphonia's Barter Box and Euphonia's Hat Box. Much of the barter box content can be moved to the Dusty Old Treasure of Crystal Cove, and barter box itself should include only new stuff. IIRC the barter box page itself also has a bunch of stuff transcluded, so it can end up being pretty confusing.-- &rArr; Cru121 (Contribs • Message • Email ) 15:58, August 5, 2018 (EDT)
 * This is exactly why we need to try and get all of the Item page names set up like above. Should make it easier to transclude dynamic content for these types of pages.  &#x1f45f;&thinsp;ShoeMaker (Contribs&thinsp;•&thinsp;Message&thinsp;•&thinsp;Email )&thinsp;&#x1f45f; 17:13, August 5, 2018 (EDT)

Stolen Gems
I already started updating Treasure of Crystal Cove and Treasure of Crystal Cove/Collectables to make a distinction between legacy gems which can be used for buying the old loot and "current" gems which are the only ones still used for purchasing the new updated loot, I hope the distinction makes sense to everyone. &rArr; Sarkastik (Contribs • Message • Email ) 16:17, August 5, 2018 (EDT)
 * Awesome, I did not realize gems changed. -- &rArr; Cru121 (Contribs • Message • Email ) 00:31, August 6, 2018 (EDT)
 * You're obviously not farming any more! &rArr; Sarkastik (Contribs • Message • Email ) 01:55, August 6, 2018 (EDT)
