EDITS - Removed old notes.

Social Pages

Sorry, I didn't know how else to label them. I made stubs for Guild, Caravan, and Fellowship, but there is no way to make them accessible from the front page. I am not sure if this goes under the Adventuring sphere, though I would certainly think not. I'll keep filling out the pages where I can, but you get to decide what to do with them. :P

PS: Should I have put this new item at the top or bottom?

Item Template

Thanks Kethra,

I'll help with what I can. I had started working on a wiki for Vanguard about a month ago before I realized others already had some going. I'll try and work up some more templates in some areas that might benefit from them. Enjoy your time with your 1yr old! They are only that age once!

Note: I've added in an Item Template.

It's a guide/start to get people motivated to post items. I will do one for Beasts here soon.

Kethra,

Yeah, I figured you were/are making those. The templates don't take too much time to create. Seeing as those are the most of what I have done, I don't really care if they don't get used or not. It's just me trying to help in the way I can :).

I know that the items were in beta, so I know that those will change too. I created a couple categories:

• Category:Armor
• Category:Jewelry

I also created the templates:

• Template:Item
• Template:CategoryTOC

Don't worry about linking them up yet, they are there to be played with. I created an item just to give an idea what I was thinking when I was doing it:

• Moonstone Mask of the Spider

I understand how wikis work. We edit things to make them easier to find/use and make them pretty :too! Please, fix/change/delete things you think are bad.

Kethra,

Do you need help breaking up the images? I figured out how they were stored, numbers relating to the game's .tga files, last night. I was able to find the images I needed quickly. I can help upload a chunk of the images if you like. Just give me an idea of the naming scheme you would like (or we can use the numerals again, just start with 20 instead of 10 :P)

On a sidenote, does the wiki have a way to insert many images quickly? Or are we stuck uploading them one by one?

Also, I was thinking of creating an image page, that would display all the icons with their name so that it's easier to find the icon you want (assuming you stay with the numeral scheme). But, this page would use more bandwidth then most pages because it's loading a bunch of images. What do you think?

Attribute Charts

Hi Kethra - I added a section for Attribute Charts and copied over the charts from my guild's wiki. The starting attributes were confirmed last day of beta. The attribute caps and allocation are based off the latest info from the beta forums. Not sure it's in the format you want so wanted to give you a heads up. --Delvie (talk) 05:11, January 26, 2007 (EST) P.S. I added the Attribute Charts section to the Combat Mechanics page.

Kill On Sight

Hi - added a Faction section to Travel and linked in a page called Kill On Sight. For now it's just a copy of a post from very late beta - but I thought we needed it there for anyone thinking they'd be able to travel anywhere. Let me know what you think. --Delvie (talk) 05:24, January 26, 2007 (EST)

Crafting overview page

I created a crafting overview Crafting. If you think it is a reasonable start, would you link it into the main page? --SwordMage 11:15, January 30, 2007 (EST)

Ability Lists

Looks great Kethra. Nice addition of the header. nidnamron (talk) 16:30, January 30, 2007 (EST)

Just a thought. Maybe we shouldn't split up spells and abilities in these lists. They are used the same way in the game with /cast. So Making 2 lists might be confusing for jobs that have both spells and abilities. Yes, one uses Energy while the other uses Endurance, but that's kind of the way the template was made.

Also, I think it looks good, what you are doing. I haven't had much time to play with the wiki or else I'd help out. Maybe in the next couple days I'll have more time.
