Pages using deprecated loc parameter
Category:Pages using deprecated loc parameter is now empty. The parameter has been depreciated. &mdash;&thinsp; Zav &thinsp; (T&middot;E&middot;C) 15:00, July 11, 2015 (EDT)
 * Okay. I was going to do basically what you did, but I was going to wait a couple days to make sure that all pages using the parameter had made it through the job queue to be added to the category. So, we'll wait a couple days and then the redundant chunk of code can be removed from the template that was populating the category and the category can be deleted.  I was going to basically do the same thing using the  account with AWB to make the change and I was going to do a slew of other small cosmetic changes as well while I was at it.  I'm okay with you doing it, although in the future you may like to realize that some people might get a little upset with you stepping on their toes taking over a project they're actively working on.  I'm not one of those people, and you are fine, but thought you should know. :) Happy wikiing. ShoeMaker (Contributions • Message) 17:23, July 11, 2015 (EDT)

Named item template
Hey ShoeMaker. You worked on Named Item back in 2011–13. Is there a future for that template or a similar one? It would make all the named items and categorization standard. It would also help with using DPL across the wiki. &mdash;&thinsp; Zav &thinsp; (T·E·C) 00:29, July 24, 2015 (EDT)
 * It's a fairly large scoped project that fell apart on me. I'd love to pick it back up and complete it, but I'm waiting on to implement some conf changes to give everyone writeapi so the full potential can be realized.  I hope that happens soon. I'm guessing he is busy because he has not replied to my emails lately, you are welcome to poke him one too. :) ShoeMaker (Contributions • Message) 15:28, July 24, 2015 (EDT)

pic
Heya, Divine Artillery.jpg is obsolete, I've uploaded Divine Artillery.png instead. Why would it be a wrong page name?--Cru121 (Contributions • Message) 13:49, July 28, 2015 (EDT)
 * The naming policy says that larger images should be .jpg and smaller images should be .png - this means item descriptions should be .jpg. I started a discussion on it this morning because I know it is confusing, the sub-section on item names conflicts with the main section on page names. Please see the discussion there. Once we can get a consensus, I can start moving all the images to the proper page names. This conflict is part of the reason for the Special:UnusedFiles having 1,300+ pages. :\ ShoeMaker (Contributions • Message) 14:11, July 28, 2015 (EDT)

Quests by lvl categories
Perhaps it would be a better idea to group all quests of a single level into a single category. This would mean that U27 quests would be in two categories, etc. If someone searches for lvl 24 quests, they must look in cats Level 18 (24 epic) quests and Level 14 (24 epic) quests. That's pretty awkward. Of course, there might be usecases where your categorization is better. --Cru121 (Contributions • Message) 15:19, July 31, 2015 (EDT)
 * I was thinking that sorting them the way the LFM panel and compendium sorts them would be best. I can flip it the other way I suppose and have them be in C:Level 10 heroic quests for ones that are only heroic, C:Level 14 quests & C:Level 24 quests for ones that have multiple bases, and C:Level 25 epic quests for epic only, but I thought that would look more ugly than the Compendium/LFM way I got it.  Going to C:Quests by level shows all of the quests and which ones are which anyways, which makes it easy to see where your quest is... I'd be happy to have a discussion on it though if you still don't like it and get community feedback. ShoeMaker (Contributions • Message) 15:25, July 31, 2015 (EDT)
