Muhandes - the crib sheet is for reporting a game breaking bug, not just for mods/admins.

There are about 15 of them out in the game currently(crib sheets, not bugs)

Yes, I know. They are given *by* admins.

Data Namespace

I've set up some very, very rough test data at (pages removed), but it didn't work. I think someone with access to the actual server is going to have to twiddle with the MediaWiki configuration to make the Data namespace "official" and default to template-style interpretation. Is anyone with admin status able to do this? I found this documentation.

But as the files above demonstrate, it is in principle possible to use a Data namespace to reduce the amount of nuisance work on this Wiki. Sorry I can't be more helpful than that. --Bagatelle ^T/_C 06:08, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

As far as I could see from the documentation the way to do this is to define Data as a namespace. I think only Olaf can do that.--Muhandes 07:03, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Finding out item ids

Since you are the most active user of the wiki in the last days, I thought I'd ask you: how do you find out Item-IDs of items that are not usable in any way? I'm puzzled of that... Thanks in advance. --Alarion 13:08, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

If they can be put in a DC the ID is available there. Otherwise I ask Ryme. --Muhandes 13:10, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

Ah, okay, didn't think about that. Thanks a bunch. --Alarion 13:41, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

A) Through a listbox source. Assemble, Weld, Send Message, Combat Items, Combat Skills, Buff Skills, Noncombat Skills are all candidates.

B) Through Wear Item source. Every equippable item will have a line of wear.php?equip=###&pwd=Blahblahblah. The equip # is the item ID. The pwd is for session checking. [May work for things that the above don't work. IE: Ham Banner] Also. Use Item source. use.php?which=###&pwd=blahblahblah. [May be useful to determine for non-tradable consumable items.]

C) Sell item source. Works same way as a listbox, just it's a combobox [or did I get the two confused, and otherway around? Eh, who cares].

D) Auction House. To be exact, the link to each item is.. auctions-itemlist.php?itemID=### Really, if you have to ask what the item ID is at that point, there's no helping you. [May work for very expensive items that only a few exist, and are in the AH]

E) Radio buttons [like the Wok of Stars] or pretty much any place where you have to submit a choice. Multi-use, etc... If you have to tell it what item you want to interact, the source is likely going to show the item.

F) Memento Display [part of the reason why I have everything that I can plop in there, actually]. I'm sure there's other ways. --Valera 08:13, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Um...

sorry,. that was an accident. I was trying to embed a graphic image into my profile, but I somehow got it wrong. I'm sorry about the mess.SunWukong 00:03, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

Template

Can you please take a look at Template:Combatencounter? I'm trying to put nightgaunt and nioth korghai in a category called "Effect Giving Enemies", but the category has 31 enemies that shouldn't be there. --PKProStudio 17:47, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

Hmm... it's working now... Never mind. --PKProStudio 17:55, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

It's standard wiki behavior, categories can take long time to update, depending on how busy the server is.--Muhandes 17:56, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

Wiki borked?

Muh, I tried to insert a "References" section by adding it under "Locations" for the article on Investigators, and it got redirected to the combat encounter template. What happened? please check - SunWukong 02:46, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

If you want to add a references section edit the entire page, don't use the edit link on the right, as t it points to the template. I'll have to find how to remove it.--Muhandes 17:56, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

I've rechecked, and this is the behavior mediawiki provides. I can cancel all section edit links, but I think they are useful. I guess you will just have to be careful what you edit. --Muhandes 18:14, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

thanks

I somehow forgot how to make a 'disambiguation' page. Thanks for fixing Retcon.

Spading team required

Muh, I need spaders on some pages I introduced to Yang Boulevard. I could have fixed Vuvuzila, but I totally forgot to save the foe description before proceeding :-/ SunWukong 21:30, 6 February 2011 (PST)

Not sure how I can help, I'm terribly busy these days. I suggest you post in the forums or ask in chat if people are willing to help. --Muhandes 03:01, 7 February 2011 (PST)
