Feel free to leave me a message here with questions or concerns regarding this wiki, or the game Terraria. I will try and respond in a timely manner and help out as best I can.

Hi there!
Just thought I'd introduce myself. I'm Leet-Pete and I used to be one of this wiki's several admins some years back, until I went inactive. Right now I'm trying to refamiliarize myself with wiki markup, I seem to have forgotten some of it. I want to get back into editing, but I haven't played Terraria for years. Not sure whether I'll be doing just occasional edits or if I'll start playing the game again and/or put a bigger effort into it. Well, I mostly do pretty basic editing anyway. We'll see.

I see you've been busy moderating and editing the wiki, I'm glad to see that the wiki has been kept clean! 🙂 Hope you've enjoyed it and that it hasn't been one big chore. Btw, are you the only active admin right now?


 * Hi! I sort of remember you, as I was here from 2011 onward :) I am pretty much the only active admin, and I believe Oscuritaforze peeks in to make some helpful fixes here and there. Once I was the only active one around, I inquired to Wikia staff for help gaining the bureaucrat title in case I needed to perform certain tasks, and they treated it like a wiki adoption process and demoted anyone who wasn't active. It's nice to hear you are possibly becoming interested in Terraria again! The game is still updating, and will soon experience a big update (1.3.6) That I am quite looking forward to. There will be plenty to edit when this happens. I am trying to keep up on things, as well as keeping the new Discussions App tidy and free of spam and inappropriate posts, but I know I am slowly getting behind. I'm not stressed about it, I do what I can with my free time, and welcome any assistance of a competent nature ;)
 * Just ask me if you have any questions about editing, and I'll be happy to help as best I can.

I would appreciate help cleaning up the edits in recent activity, lately there's been a lot and I can't keep up. I don't think I can be in direct communication with Forze or The Pathogen (the two most recent admins) as they don't really come around anymore. So it's just me basically. I can re-promote over time if you have decided to stick around for consistent contributions.
 * Thanks for the info! Yeah, Wikia staff tend to do things their own way, but that's OK, as we were inactive anyway. They didn't remove any bureaucrats' rights though, right? Because that would be a questionable decision, in my opinion.
 * I'm surprised to hear they're still patching and adding content to the game. That's cool! I'll definitely try the game out again soon! Block swapping seems like it will make editing buildings much easier, for instance.
 * Yep, stressing about what can/should be done isn't worth it. Hopefully I'll be able to offer some assistance. If there's something you consider to be of high priority in terms of editing or whatever and you'd like some help, don't hesitate to ask and I'll see what I can do. 😊
 * Could you possibly grant me admin rights again? If you need to look into it first, maybe ask for Oscurita's opinion, as well.
 * Hello,
 * Hello,


 * That's fine and the recent activity seems pretty clean right now, unless you're thinking several days back.

Changing my edits
I saw your message, details go to my page.

Sign
The sign is a material in the announcement box, however, I cannot fill in the "Material in" section in Sign's page because for some reason it's missing. I think you might know how to fix this. BTW, I can't leave my signature due to a bug. When I attempt to do it, the wiki says "This is the moment of everything, but you could be more than anything." I clearly have no idea and it doesn't seem to appear on other wikis. SUPER4geditTANK 12:43, November 11, 2018 (UTC)

Terraria: Otherworld
Just updated Terraria: Otherworld to include cancellation info, were you excited for Otherworld?

Do you wish Otherworld wasn't cancelled? It was a great idea

Infoboxes
One of these days I’ll say hi regarding something other than Infoboxes ;) I’ll keep it as short as I can; basically, it is now possible to more exactingly target pieces of an Infobox with CSS, which means that with a few updates to each Infobox & MediaWiki:Themes.css, it’ll make your Infoboxes much more flexible. You could then create simpler Infoboxes (almost all of the ones on this Wiki are quite complex, as you know) & be confident that the aesthetics will always work appropriately. With your permission, I’d like to go ahead & make these updates for you so that you can take advantage of these new CSS possibilities. Thanks!


 * Greetings Ursuul,


 * I'm assuming implementing this update won't change anything we currently have unless I tinker with CSS? If so, I am fine with the update. I just don't want to be put into a position of having to fix up the infoboxes right away, so if they remain unaltered, then go ahead and add in the CSS.


 * Correct, the existing Infoboxes will keep looking & working the same way; this is just a bit of future-proofing for Infoboxes you might make down the road. The Infobox templates themselves would have some underlying code altered to make sure they can all be targeted with the new CSS I would write, but I would handle that for you.

Comment Section
Why don't this wiki's pages have comment sections?I think it would be a nice feature

'''TurkArmen (talk) wat? meme 13:58, December 20, 2018 (UTC)'''


 * We decided to remove the comment sections for several reasons. Over the years that I have been here, I had come to realize that this community was using the comment section more for spamming and edit counts than trying to contribute useful information. Many users would go from page to page, leaving barely anything but minor spam across 30+ pages over a span of 10 minutes. This behaviour wasn't isolated to a few users. Time had shown that many people were constantly doing this, clogging up the recent activity with comments, making it harder to scroll through and check actual edits, and sometimes giving staff the task of deleting comments that weren't needed. If users have a question about an item, they can ask it in the Discussions app, or the forums.

Skeletron Bug
Hey, I have a bug report. One time skeletron ran away. I don't know why, but he just ran off, during the night. I had also gaven that account a cute fishron mount. Is it because I had the mount or does the game hate me?

 * Sorry, but I only manage the pages on this wiki, I can't solve game bugs. A better place to report your bug would be to the devs themselves on the official Terraria forums on the Bugs section for your specific platform.

Discussions App
I need help on the app there is a rude spammer named “Sap-Fling1” and won’t stop spamming, saying I do, called me a kid pervert (i am sorry that I said he acted like one) and generally being toxic. I really want him to stop because he acts like he’s the victim and now he is just acting weird. I will report his recent post of him spamming 20-30 lines of 🔵🔴

 * Thank you for giving me the heads up, I will take care of it.
