Terraria Armor Dye Simulator (TADS)
I think the armor set pages (crimson armor, hallowed armor, frost armor) could have a Dye Simulator. like, each dye has its own button that when pressed, dyes the whole armor that color. or like, you enter a color in a text box beside each piece, and press a button labeled "Dye it!" and the piece is dyed that color! I thought this up when I was nearly run over. I should throw myself up in front of cars more often! ha! (no I shoudn't)

I bet nobody will agree with me. maybe somebody should make a program for this. I'm sure we can work this is java script, right? maybe. I have no idea! -- Robstar14 16:17, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

Good idea. -- Reno 17:08, 05 August 2014 (EST)

Soils -> Walls?
I'm not sure having links to both Soils and Blocks in the Items and Mechanics section is really necessary, and a link to Walls would make sense as there is a link to blocks. Is it worth considering swapping the Soils link to a Walls link, and maybe even merging Soils into Blocks? --Crystallized (talk) 19:04, 11 March 2014 (UTC)
 * The concept of "soils" seems a bit questionable to me; like with "mini bosses" there's no official definition of it (as far as I know). It can however be nifty as an overview of what worlds are made of, though possibly as a part or category of "naturally spawning blocks" or somesuch. As such I think merging Soils into Blocks would be a good idea. Other than that I also think replacing Soils with Walls would improve Items and Mechanics.

Corrupted player?
Just wanting to ask this for my friend, in the character selection, it is red colored and unclickable, do this means his character is corrupt?

possibly. no your computer you should go to Documents,My games,Terraria,Players and then the characters folder. with a world file the world and the back up will have "bad" at the end meaning that the world data is messed up. it might be the same with players.

Underworld enemy
I don't see a "Lava Bat" and "Red Devil" In enemy section. are they new in 1.2.3.1 ?
 * Seems both were introduced in 1.2. I guess the list is just a bit outdated. NoseOfCthulhu (talk) 04:03, 20 April 2014 (UTC)

party girl glitch
there is a glitch for the party girl in the xbox 360 console 1.2 update that makes the party girl sell cyborg items
 * I added the bug to the Party Girl article and List of known bugs, thanks for pointing it out. NoseOfCthulhu (talk) 04:03, 20 April 2014 (UTC)

1.2.0 equivalent update for Console
Since the recent major update (as of this posting) for the console version of Terraria has come out, one can't help but notice that much of the content that now applies to the version is still labeled as PC only. Since it would be tedious for a single person to go through and fix this, why don't we make it a wiki goal to get things up to date?
 * This process to fix this is already being done by several users, though unfortunately in a rather sporadic manner due to people only editing the pages they visit and nothing more. To properly achieve such a goal we'd probably require a team of console-players systematically comparing 'pc-only'-marked wiki pages with the game and/or game files, but unfortunately we don't have that. If people were to mass-label pc-only content as pc/console there's also the risk of assuming all pc-content to also be console, potentially mislabeling non-console content. An example seems to be 1 → 2 (though I may be wrong). I agree that outdated labeling is a heavy problem, though. NoseOfCthulhu (talk) 03:52, 10 May 2014 (UTC)

Broken Templates
At the bottom of most pages, there is a template like Consumables or Decorations etc. All those links are broken and lead to an empty page with a title saying "Template: [name of template]". Can someone fix this?

Add mount page
Add Mounts page to main page?

Fan theories in trivia sections
Nearly every item page has a point in its trivia section speculating(with no evidence) that the topical item is a reference to something; Many of these theories are very tenuous. It's nothing but gossip and has no place in a wiki.
 * There are several users (myself included) who often remove such dubious trivia, though unfortunately it seems to pile up even faster. If you want you could make an account and remove trivia you find inappropriate yourself. NoseOfCthulhu (talk) 01:43, 7 June 2014 (UTC)

Vandalism
Ive seen recently, people editing pages, trying to make it look like "swag", which, doenst help. The first page i saw was a spider page on a black somethingorother. it said it spawn in things called "Spooderman Nests" and the AI was "swagger", my solution is for every edit, make it so it has to be checked before being aproved, like, if a bug happens, you can add to the page and about 5 mins later maybe its up, and things like changing AI from "Fighter" or "Flying" to "swagger" will be declined.

 * This is the wrong place for this; you want the admin noticeboard. -Xolroc (talk) 04:16, 11 June 2014 (UTC)

How Do you Upload An Image?
I want to upload an image to Lihzahrd Temple. --Dialga The Time Lord (talk) 23:17, 19 June 2014 (UTC)
 * There's a place to upload files on the page, a little box labelled "Drop files here" just on top of the editing area. --Xolroc (talk) 23:22, 19 June 2014 (UTC)
 * There's also the uploading page for those who prefer that. NoseOfCthulhu (talk) 01:39, 20 June 2014 (UTC)

Link
In the section "Environment", the link to "snow" leads to a disambiguation page.
 * Seems it has been fixed. NoseOfCthulhu (talk) 13:46, 22 June 2014 (UTC)
