Summon modifiers
Sorry, I didn't know about that, I'll change them back. OdnHarfagre (talk) 15:31, 16 May 2014 (UTC)
 * No problem, thanks for the undo :)  Equazcion ( talk ) 15:33, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

Fishing
You did a fantastic job polishing my input on the fishing page, the verbiage is much more concise and the table is excellent. Well done, and thanks.
 * No problem and thanks for the great compliment! :)  Equazcion ( talk ) 19:39, 17 May 2014 (UTC)

Small Edits
Hey, for you the same message as for OdnHarfagre: I recently (that is yesterday) started learning how to use bots to edit the wiki. I noticed you made a lot of small edits to expand the settings on the Master Template Tiles. If anytime in the future you need to do something like that again feel free to ask me and I'll try to use a bot for this. (If you are concerned about points I should be able to add them manually.) --0icke0 (talk) 06:26, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I actually did this using AutoWikiBrowser (which is automated without technically being a bot). When you see a million edit from my account that's usually what's going on. I appreciate the offer though, thanks :)  Equazcion ( talk ) 06:44, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

RE: Mine Cart track
Good to know, sounds like I should make a Guide page then. I was somewhat surprised that the wiring control was a new find, and pretty excited at the time. Thanks for the kudos. The way the switches are implemented are pretty cool, however because of the toggle logic system you can't make more than a two light indicator. (You can't make working three way lights.) Of course you could make a light that came on as you went down the track, but you couldn't make a light that went green indicating the switch status, and it was safe to do so like a real train. I'll see if I can put together a polished video for a rail system build guide with switches, overrides, switch status indicators, and reset returns. I think probably the main important items would have to be jump tracks for state changes on switches, and of course the whole wired switch idea in the first place.

Sorry about that, didn't know videos were currently disallowed. I got the code from the Engine page for the video. That's been there for awhile. I made a better edited video that features complex switch design including the use of cycling jump track directional switch sensors, real life rail system coloration switch bodies, and un-used switch resets for return trips. I do notice that many of the pages do have videos, and I've found them quite useful. Any particular reason why videos are disallowed? Anyway, since this is a talk page, I'll reference the complex track video here, and you can remove it at your leisure. PS the videos are of Poozly and by Poozly (my other character) and are completely copyright and owned by me, and I grant common use rights to them to www.curse.com, which I kind of assumed by posting the video to the wiki I was granting. But I do make it explicit here in this talk page. Thanks again! 
 * Don't worry about it :) The official video policy is here: Terraria Wiki:Video policy (it's sort of old though and hasn't been updated in a while). The practice is generally that the wiki doesn't use gameplay videos, except to illustrate basic concepts that can't be described any other way, and animated GIFs are used in most of those situations. On regular wiki pages about items and mechanics, this pretty much excludes gameplay videos showcasing the various ingenious things players have done with the item in question -- although that sort of thing could be suited to a Guide page specifically about Minecart Track tips. You should probably leave out the comments typed in the video itself though (that part is in the video policy I linked). It's better to do the explaining via ordinary article text. :)  Equazcion ( talk ) 00:31, 2 Aug 2014 (UTC)

Master Bait
Pretty certain that the master bait has nothing to do with masturbating, just saying, the golden shower/mourning wood are actual intended puns, where as the master bait masturbating thing isnt intended at all, its also just extremely immature, and honestly should not be on a wiki that kids most likely browse. WelchDrew (talk) 19:45, 17 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm quite certain it's intended. This is a common fishing joke and the other innuendos in the game would seem to make the chances of it being unintentional rather low. As for removing it based on it being offensive or unsuitable for minors, we've never done that here before, and until a blanket rule were adopted I'd say it's not a factor. It would probably be best to respond to the discussion already ongoing on that talk page though. Equazcion ( talk ) 19:47, 17 May 2014 (UTC)
 * You should not forget, that piece of trivia was deleted by so many others, other variants of it were deleted. To be honest I feel it has no place on this wiki... It should just be deleted, and someone else will most likely delete it in the future. Just save yourself the trouble of undoing those edits... WelchDrew (talk) 19:52, 17 May 2014 (UTC)
 * The fact that several other people found it offensive doesn't speak to public opinion. There are many people who didn't remove it, and we don't know how many of those there were. Not that that's any kind of argument to remove it anyway. If you have an argument, please participate in the article's talk page discussion at Talk:Bait. It's not proper to continue reverting while ignoring an ongoing public discussion on the matter. And don't worry about me -- it's no trouble at all :)  Equazcion ( talk ) 19:55, 17 May 2014 (UTC)

No Offense to you but...
I will be honest, no offence to you Equazcion, but you are my least favorite wiki contributor, I am not saying this to be a troll or anything, but as much as I like this wiki(and the guy who administrates it, 0icke0.) But I will be honest, sometimes I feel this wiki would be better without some people, oh and your level, number of edits and your spot on the leaderboard mean nothing. I would rather not abandon another wiki because of "that one person."(Especially a gamepedia wiki, the previous wikis I abandoned were Wikia ones but thats beside the point). This is merely my opinion. WelchDrew (talk) 07:21, 25 May 2014 (UTC)


 * As for this incident with the Angler armor requirements, most of the info posted around wikis and forums seems to support the information on the page as it stood, as does the game code. You sought to keep your altered info on the page regardless, based solely on your personal experience, which is something that usually isn't done, and for good reason.


 * When one person experiences something unique, that's generally added as a bug. I'm sorry if you don't agree with that but it seems like the most workable option. And I'm sorry I'm not your favorite editor here.  Equazcion ( talk ) 07:38, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

Moon phase
ok you did a great table, thats the kinda things i wanted but didnt have the scripting knowledge to make more decently. plus the pics of the moon phases, definitely better there, and the fishing power... always something you forgot, thats why it should be cooperative. this was long overdue so now this page rocks. good job.85.69.241.244 11:14, 9 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks :)  Equazcion ( talk ) 13:12, 9 Aug 2014 (UTC)

Massive Edits
Hi Equazcion,

It has been brought to my attention that you are doing a massive amount of repetative edits, and this could be to farm Gamepedia points. Please note that this is discouraged, and that a lot of people will dislike this idea. However if you are doing it to actually be helpful on the wiki, I can bot flag you until you have finished this job (And in turn, preventing any Gamepedia Point gains).

Regards, Kris. Gamepedia Wiki Manager Cblair91 (talk) 17:23, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I am completely uninterested in gaming the points system. I'd be happy to create a separate bot account for automated edits -- I had requested that from our singular active admin, but he seemed not to know who to contact for that. He'd like to do the same himself for his User:0icke0bot account (the admin is User:0icke0).  Equazcion ( talk ) 17:26, 30 Aug 2014 (UTC)
 * I just created User:EquazcionBot, if you can apply a permanent bot flag there I'll perform all automated edits from it. Thanks!  Equazcion ( talk ) 17:31, 30 Aug 2014 (UTC)


 * Okay, if you create a seperate account that will be good, I will flag yours and his accounts for bot :) Please reply back when you have made the user.
 * P.s. Bot flags applied Cblair91 (talk) 17:40, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
 * That's awesome, thank you! I switched the automated edits over to that account now.  Equazcion ( talk ) 17:44, 30 Aug 2014 (UTC)

Purity vs Forest on fishing catches
The reason I used Purity instead of Forest is because it is less technical. It sounds really weird to say "It doesn't have any other biomes" by using the term "Forest" if there are no trees(especially in the non-Jungle Underground, Cavern, or Underworld). Crimson, Corruption, and Jungle can have trees and are not called Forest. The tooltip for Green Solution says "Used by the Clentaminator. Spreads the Purity."--Blackberry Pie (talk) 17:07, 1 September 2014 (UTC)


 * I understand, although we're not merely referring to the absence of other biomes. I don't see much reason to say that the forest/purity is merely a lack of other biomes. It may not exactly "spread", but it's as much its own biome as anything else. It has its own enemies, growth, drops, etc, all of which are in effect whether or not trees are there.


 * Most biomes would be about as difficult to identify in areas without their respective identifying elements, like mushrooms, corrupt thorns, etc.


 * The biome is only named in two places within the game: Angler quotes and the Clentaminator tooltip. While the Clentaminator tooltip says "purity", the Angler quotes are pretty numerous and all refer to it as "forest". In the end though, this wiki currently uses the term "forest" everywhere, so for consistency's sake it would be best not to change things in certain areas. If it were decided that the term should change across the board, we could change it everywhere though I don't personally see a need.  Equazcion ( talk ) 17:27, 1 Sep 2014 (UTC)


 * No, It really is an absence of other biomes. If you look at the code for fishing or enemy spawning it always checks for other biomes first. Only if no other biomes are found or all of the biome specific things fail to happen does Terraria default to the fish or enemy list for the Purity.--Blackberry Pie (talk) 17:49, 1 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Well, we could debate whether forest/purity is its own biome -- but, whatever it is, it's got a particular name on this wiki, so it could get confusing to start using different words in different places.  Equazcion ( talk ) 17:55, 1 Sep 2014 (UTC)


 * You should consider a job in marketing or politics. It will put your obstructionism and nannying to good use.--Blackberry Pie (talk) 18:14, 1 September 2014 (UTC)
 * And you should consider reading up on the rules. A simple search in the game code for forest returns many results, far more than purity. Hence I agree with Equazcion that there is no reason to rename it because of one results that says otherwise. --0icke0 (talk) 06:33, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

Stop getting rid of the Minion DPS tables
There is no particular reason not to have them, and given the unique nature of summoning bonuses affecting both minion count and damage separately, having an explicit representation of how different bonuses affect their overall effectiveness is needed, or at least extremely useful as reference, over the simple linearity of damage and crit bonuses that other weapons have. At the very least, consider that all of the work is done and there's no harm in keeping it, and that it is foolish to just throw it away. --SzGamer227 (talk) 11:17, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
 * There's nothing terribly unique about minion bonuses. People simply endeavor to acquire the items with the greatest boosts, as with any other item type. The particular numbers that result don't matter. There are a great many things that don't exactly "hurt" in any way other than degrading the quality of the wiki by adding bloat. It's the same reason you've been removing trivia bloat en masse (which I generally agree with). It's also a confusing table, as it appears at first to be adding new information, but it isn't. Its more like Guide material and I'd suggest putting it there.  Equazcion ( talk ) 11:40, 3 Sep 2014 (UTC)
 * Also see my comment on this at Talk:Minions, which I posted when I removed the chart.  Equazcion ( talk ) 11:42, 3 Sep 2014 (UTC)
 * I saw you re-added the chart, so as a compromise I've set it to default to a collapsed state, and people can expand it if they like. I also changed "DPS" to "boost" because I found "DPS" misleading -- the chart doesn't contain DPS numbers but boost percentages. I also placed the chart under a "Tips" heading, to clarify its purpose. Hope that's acceptable. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 12:09, 3 Sep 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, thank you. As long as they are on the page where people can refer to them when needed, it's fine with me.

Bit of trivia on the nymph page.
Shouldnt the nymph banner trivia be on the nymph banner page or banner page? WelchDrew (talk) 11:59, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I already changed it. OdnHarfagre (talk) 14:28, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Since all the banners are now merged, I think info on one particular banner is sort of useless on the mass listing page. It would be much more visible on the page pertaining to the monster that drops it. Just my opinion. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 18:10, 8 Oct 2014 (UTC)
 * That's right too, never thought about it. Maybe we could write it on both pages? OdnHarfagre (talk) 18:34, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I think both is cool yeah. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 18:39, 8 Oct 2014 (UTC)
 * Ok, added :) OdnHarfagre (talk) 21:59, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks :) <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 01:36, 9 Oct 2014 (UTC)

Admin
Recently I've realized that I'am overworked. This also affects my capabilities as a administrator here. I've noticed that some of my responses ended up being short or blunt and aside from blocking vandals I've been unable to actively contribute to the wiki. Furthermore, it is currently a burden for me, which considering the circumstances is not something I should continue with. Hence I've decided to, at least temporarily, lay down this function. I really love this wiki, and will properly still make edits once in a while, but being active every day is not among my current capabilities. With that being said, I do not want to leave this wiki without an active administrator to ensure the quality of the wiki. Although I could possibly ask a curse member to help out with this, you are in for a long due promotion. So I want to ask you if you are interested in becoming an administrator. In short this means that, aside from what you can do now, you will be able to more easily revert vandalism, (un)block users and (un)delete and protect pages, to further help fight vandalism. In addition this will result in additional responsibilities, for example mediating conflicts between users, should problems arise. I believe you are capable for this task, so even though I cannot promote you myself, I'll do my best to get a curse member to promote you, should you decide that you want to become an administrator. If you have additional questions I recommend taking a look at our Administrator Guide and considering it is lacking a great amount of information maybe look the the Wikipedia Administrator Guide as well. Of course you can also ask me. I'll be awaiting your response. --0icke0 (talk) 23:07, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I'll do it. I do wish there were other active long-term editors here, but que sera. I'm pretty familiar with admin responsibilities and the MediaWiki admin tools. So yeah, go for it. I hope I can be as good at it as you are -- you've done an outstanding job all this time. Thanks for thinking of me. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 23:26, 28 Oct 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm glad to hear this. I've asked Cblair91 to promote you, so hopefully you will receive your administrator rights soon. --0icke0 (talk) 08:47, 29 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Looks like that worked. Thanks :) <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 11:48, 29 Oct 2014 (UTC)

Terraria Wiki namespace issue
Yo, looks sort of like the permission issue caught someone's attention upstairs, but unfortunately the admin board and others are still off-limits for editing by general users. --Gearzein (talk) 19:30, 5 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I just got an email saying they're still working on it. FYI This thing started because I originally emailed them about being unable to protect Terraria Wiki pages, and the current state appears to be temporary while the developers attempt to fix that. It turns out this is an issue affecting all Gamepedia wikis (including Minecraft Wiki), so I think they're devoting a fair amount of attention to it. I'll contact them again if this keeps up but for now people can post here regarding any admin issues. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 19:39, 5 Nov 2014 (UTC)

Background
Any change that you still have the old background saved somewhere? It seems the translation wikis relied on that image for the background and are now without a background. --0icke0 (talk) 17:38, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I changed the background by editing MediaWiki:Hydra.css. The old body background value can be seen here: http://hydra-media.cursecdn.com/terrraria.gamepedia.com/3/3a/Bg.png. I didn't remove or change any existing image files -- and I believe each language wiki has their own Hydra.css, so I don't think my change should've affected those. If you could link me to a wiki that seems to be affected I can take a look. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 17:52, 9 Nov 2014 (UTC)
 * Going directly to that old URL doesn't seem to work. I'm not sure if it ever did though -- we had a simple background color here, rather than an image. The other wikis appear to have that same color there now, as we did here. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 17:55, 9 Nov 2014 (UTC)

RE: Unexpained Revert
The reason was that when I veiwed the changes it appeared that much had been deleted. After spending more time I realise you have just reorganized it. I am deeply sorry and hope you can forgive me. I have put your edits back and beleive that you have reorganized it well. Cooly9

Why did you remove my tip on Turkor The Ungrateful? (I used to be The Know It All)
I would be happy if you could add back my tip. Coolcam6578 (talk) 20:27, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
 * It took some digging to find what you were talking about (this). I don't think I removed your tip, but I probably did cut it down some. It's understood that bosses are generally challenging and that players will want to equip the possible gear. I left a shorter tip in at Turkor to note that since it's expensive to re-summon, players may want to take extra care in determining when they're ready for the fight. Someone seems to have changed it since then to say that Turkor is actually not that challenging... that part I wouldn't know firsthand since I don't have the mobile version. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 20:36, 4 Dec 2014 (UTC)


 * Can you revert it? Coolcam6578 (talk) 20:37, 10 December 2014 (UTC)Coolcam6578

Why pages of the French wiki loads slower than that of the English wiki ?
I don't understand why the French wiki take a lot of time to load big pages. Example : Banners and Bannières. 1/3 time the French page crash : "Error - A problem occurred while trying to load the page" Would you know where it comes from? --Dinoxel (talk) 19:01, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
 * This is just a guess but I think it's because French wiki doesn't have the images yet. It might go looking for them when you load the page. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 19:05, 7 Dec 2014 (UTC)
 * Ok I see, thanks. Have an other thing, I can't edit this page Enclume en Fer probably because it is too huge. But it's annoying =/ Any suggestions? --Dinoxel (talk) 21:41, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I think an edit might work if you removed a big chunk of the page. I'd try moving the entire list of recipes into a template. See if the page will save with the list removed, and a template with all that stuff in its place. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 22:47, 7 Dec 2014 (UTC)
 * This Recipe of the iron anvil exists too. But I can't edit too (I mean when I press "Save page", the page crash and my edits too). --Dinoxel (talk) 23:53, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I attempted a fix on the recipe page, but can't seem to get it to work. It's currently incomplete -- I attempted to split it into 4 smaller transcluded pages. I've emailed the Curse staff about this issue and I'll report back when I hear something. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 01:20, 8 Dec 2014 (UTC)
 * Ok, thank you Equa! But please don't import missing images, the are just misspelled. The base name of every images is on IDs Item IDs (fr). I didn't finish to translate (and 0icke0 to export them), I have to finish faster the eighth and the nineth.
 * I was just uploading images to try and get the recipe page working. My theory was that the pages are glitching due to missing images. Unused images become listed in a special category and are easy enough to delete later on, so don't worry about images existing under the wrong names. Once you have the right image names in the articles, I can make a run through and delete all the unused duplicates. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 10:07, 8 Dec 2014 (UTC)
 * This may be caused by using this template in the crafts template. As a result, for every item in the recipe list it needs to be checked against about 75 possible names, which results in a huge amount of checks for such large pages. As a result (taking into account that mediawiki isn't all that fast with such things) it could very well cause the long loading times. So you may want to try and remove that template. --0icke0 (talk) 14:16, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I'd say that's a good bet. I'm not sure I understand the purpose of that template though so I'm not messing with it myself yet. The Curse people emailed me this morning saying they're looking into the issue and are examining the nested templates. I'll probably check myself later today when I have more time to dig into it. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 15:04, 8 Dec 2014 (UTC)

Following Icke's suggestion, I took a look at those templates. It appears that fr:Modèle:Linked icon is the offending template. It currently uses fr:Modèle:Item link redirect to produce links. At the English wiki, we basically retired that template a while ago due to performance issues. At the French wiki, from what I can gather, the template is still used -- but for a sort-of good reason: It allows links to English article names to redirect to their French names (so if you copied an article from English wiki to French, links to articles that exist at French wiki will automatically work, without having to change the links to their French versions). I created fr:Modèle:Linked icon/sandbox, which you can use to replace fr:Modèle:Linked icon. This will likely improve performance, but it will also disable that auto-translate feature, and any English links in a recipe template will become red (edit: nothing would become red -- the 'linked icon' template just links bare images; the text links with images beside them are handled by fr:Modèle:Item link, which already doesn't have this feature). Personally I think French wiki is mature enough to disable the feature safely, but I'll leave that up to you. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 19:54, 8 Dec 2014 (UTC)

PS. Curse may still contact me about their investigation into the recipe templates and any other performance issues they might uncover, in case you want to wait a bit for that before trying something on your own. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 19:56, 8 Dec 2014 (UTC)

PPS. Some more info: fr:Modèle:Item link (which produces most links within article) already does not use fr:Modèle:Item link redirect (meaning your 'item link' template does not have the auto-translate feature) and things seem to be working out with it. This is just some further 'proof' that the feature can probably be disabled safely at fr:Modèle:Linked icon as well. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 20:00, 8 Dec 2014 (UTC)

PPPS. Upon looking a little closer I'm seeing that fr:Modèle:Item link redirect actually doesn't contain all that many translations. For the vast majority of links, it's producing a default link as-typed. I would say that you can definitely go ahead and replace fr:Modèle:Linked icon with fr:Modèle:Linked icon/sandbox. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 20:07, 8 Dec 2014 (UTC)

Wow. Thank you very much for your help. Hum, you disturbed me with your Post-Scriptum =/ I don't understand much about programming, and I still have trouble in English (a little). But I quickly understand, so could you please tell me again what I have to do ? :X --Dinoxel (talk) 19:51, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Just replace the contents of fr:Modèle:Linked icon with the contents of fr:Modèle:Linked icon/sandbox. I'd do it myself but it's protected, and it looks like my admin rights don't extend to the French wiki. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 19:54, 10 Dec 2014 (UTC)
 * Okay, I'll do it now. It's normal for your admin rights, the French wiki is a full-fledged wiki not an "expansion" like the German. --Dinoxel (talk) 20:53, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

Do I have to do anything here ? --Dinoxel (talk) 22:18, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Not really, but you can replace its contents with to disable it entirely, just to be safe. We did that here at the English wiki. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion  ( talk ) 22:24, 10 Dec 2014 (UTC)
 * Evin if it's write "This template is used in A LOT of pages. Please do not modify it without prior discussion. Please do not "update" it before the corresponding page redirects have been discussed, done, and confirmed." ? =/ --Dinoxel (talk) 09:27, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Do you know what "Wiki Guardian" mean on my profile ? --Dinoxel (talk) 09:29, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, you should be careful when you edit a template that's used on a lot of pages. You've discussed it with me, but if there are others you can discuss it with also, go ahead. Doesn't hurt to be careful. The edit I suggested would basically just disable the template's feature though. We made that same edit on this wiki: Item link redirect. You don't have to do it though, since the edit you made to fr:Modèle:Linked icon pretty much got rid of it already. WikiGuardian means you're a step above admin. You have a couple of extra rights at the French wiki. I don't remember exactly what they are but from what I do remember you probably won't need them. You can email wiki@curse.com if you want to ask. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 13:00, 11 Dec 2014 (UTC)
 * Ok, thank you. (I don't know what to answer !) --Dinoxel (talk) 18:47, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

Can you replace me ?
Hey, have some words to replace in the French wiki, and I don't know where I can put them so I'll place them right here : -- Dinoxel (talk) 01:06, 29 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Hey, do your bot can import every images of this page ? --  Dinoxel  discussion  15:32, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
 * I don't think AWB can do that. However let's see if we can get the French wiki to use English image. Most of the other language wikis can do that, but French seems to lack that feature. I'll contact Gamepedia and see. Once that's done you wouldn't need to keep re-uploading images to the French wiki all the time. Equazcion  ( talk ) 16:01, 9 Jul 2015 (UTC)
 * 0Icke0 has already done it, but he isn't active anymore. --  Dinoxel  discussion  17:50, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
 * He imported every pictures of French items too. --  Dinoxel  discussion  17:52, 9 July 2015 (UTC)


 * Is there a reason you don't want to use the English wiki's images? They emailed me back saying maybe someone requested that be turned off. Equazcion  ( talk ) 18:03, 9 Jul 2015 (UTC)


 * They've switched on your ability to access English images at the French wiki. However they also said you (Dinoxel) may have originally requested that this be turned off. I wasn't aware of that when I made the request, just thought it would make things easier for you this way. I guess I can request that it be turned off again, although I don't think it should interfere there -- you can use your French images in place of English ones wherever you like.


 * As for importing the images, I don't think I have any way of doing that using AWB. You would need a custom bot, which I don't have. Maybe if you email wiki@curse.com they could help you. Equazcion  ( talk ) 18:21, 9 Jul 2015 (UTC)


 * I don't want English images because the French wiki isn't completely translated, there is always some English old pictures and I want to remove them to have a true French Wiki. I already have every images on my PC, Chrisf1020 gift me a XNB converter but it's very long to upload new images and I'm actually translating Items IDs Part11. If it doesn't get bored you and them, I would to turn off it again. So 0Icke0 used a custom Bot to uploaded eveyr images on the French Wiki, right? If you have the page Items IDs Part11 translated, can't you do anything with the ID or something else ? By the way, thank you for your help and sorry, I'm not good to explain precisely what I want and what I mean. --  Dinoxel  discussion  21:46, 9 July 2015 (UTC)

Deleting Anomaly and Bug pages?
In the recent changes, I see that you effectively removed every bug and anomaly template. Any specific reason? --JosephChor (talk) 20:21, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
 * See this discussion for an explanation. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 20:23, 7 Dec 2014 (UTC)
 * Since I'm about to go through the pages the bot just edited, I was thinking that I would add any lost information that may be interesting back to the article. For example, in Iron Pickaxe, this was an anomaly: "Unlike the other base metal pickaxes (Copper, Silver, and Gold), the Iron Pickaxe requires only 3 Wood to craft." Should I add something like that to the trivia section since it isn't a bug? Chrisf1020 (talk) 21:37, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Trivia sounds like a good idea for that one. There may be some anomalies that affect gameplay more substantially than that (for which the Notes section might be better in some cases). Use your judgment, I would say :) <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 22:20, 7 Dec 2014 (UTC)

Signatures
Are we allowed to change the color of our username in our signature to something like this or this? It's oh so tempting, I figured I would ask first though. <font face="Tw Cen Mt"> Chrisf1020 ( talk ) 04:12, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Yup, you're allowed to style your signature any way you like, within reason -- as long as it's reasonably-sized, not too painful for others to look at, doesn't produce too much code on the page (255 character limit), and doesn't use a transcluded template. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 09:39, 9 Dec 2014 (UTC)
 * Very interesting, thank you. <font face="Tw Cen Mt"> Chrisf1020 ( talk ) 19:16, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

Files
Alright, I can't help but notice that whenever someone needs a file, you find it within minutes. Out of curiosity, where do you get all of these? For example, all of those updated console sprites or the Santa Zombie you just uploaded. <font face="Tw Cen Mt"> Chrisf1020  (talk)  01:39, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I got the console sprites from the mobile game files. You can download the mobile (android) version's APK file (free) from several websites and decompress it as a ZIP file. You won't have the source code but you can get at the images.


 * The PC sprites are a little trickier -- they're in the Terraria content/images folder as XNB files. You can get images out of the XNB files using this, however they're only labeled according to ID, so unless you know the ID you're looking for, there's some time and guesswork involved.


 * Hope that helps :) <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 01:55, 16 Dec 2014 (UTC)

Thanks so much! It took a little while to get to this point, but the 6,392 xnb files are being converted as I type! Of course, I had to, you know, make a Steam account, buy Terraria, install it, find another .xnb to .png converter, as the one on the forums no longer works, and then watch a video tutorial on how to do it. ;) <font face="Tw Cen Mt"> Chrisf1020  (talk)  03:15, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

Console & Mobile Version history articles
Hey, I just wanted to let you know that I'm impressed with the changes lately that you've done to the Mobile Version history article. Nicely done! The patch history for each version would probably be best to be put in spoilers to decrease the "scroll-rate" (how big the article is which could get harder to find the version the person may want to see and the mouse wheel will be used too much) of the article. Oh and just to mention, the Console Version history will also need to be done the same way, or it would look great like that. Terraria from what I know is available for Xbox 360, Xbox One, PlayStation 3 & 4 (console wise). And again, nice work! 08:29, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks! Nice to get feedback, especially when it's favorable :) The mobile history was more pressing due to all the separate update paths but I'll get on the console history too, if only to collapse those long lists. <font face="Century Gothic"> Equazcion ( talk ) 08:40, 26 Dec 2014 (UTC)

 * I don't know, I only checked that one page before I fixed it. Are you sure other pages didn't also do that? We could experiment and figure it out, but as long as everything is working now, it's sort of academic :) Equazcion  ( talk ) 16:38, 3 Jan 2015 (UTC)

Bot for the French wiki
Hey! I'm helping Dinoxel with the French wiki. Do you think it could be possible to give us a copy of the bot if you don't mind. I am also making studies in IT and I have a lot of background in programming in general.--PatateauChou (talk) 16:19, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
 * It's true. He just wants some help to know how the bot can work. --  Dinoxel  discussion  16:21, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I've downloaded it and I'll try to make it work on my own but if you could provide a TL;DR on how to make it work, it would be great. --PatateauChou (talk) 16:25, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I use a pre-compiled program: AutoWikiBrowser. It's somewhat easy to figure out and you won't need to do any programming, but most operations will require regex.
 * Use file->login/profiles to add your login info, and go to options->preferences->site to set http://terraria-fr.gamepedia.com/.
 * Under "Make list" on the left, choose "Category (recursive)" and enter "Terraria" in the line, then click "Make list". Wait til the list appears, then right-click it and choose remove->non-mainspace and then again remove->duplicates. Then file->save settings. Now you have a list of all pages on french wiki.
 * Check "Find and replace", and use normal for ordinary text replacements, or advanced for regex.
 * When you have those set up, choose the "start" tab and enter an edit summary. Click start, check the edit, click save.
 * Once you tested and think you're ready to have it proceed automatically, click the "bot" tab and click "auto-save", then click "start" again.
 * That's my crash course. Hope that helps :) Equazcion  ( talk ) 16:36, 3 Jan 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks a lot. Everything seems to be working after Dinoxel gave me the right password to the bot account. I just need to understand the rest now :)--PatateauChou (talk) 17:46, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
 * No problem :) Play with it a bit, you'll get the hang of it. Equazcion  ( talk ) 17:55, 3 Jan 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, do you know how the bot can modify words in Templates ? --  Dinoxel  discussion  17:50, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
 * If you want to include templates (and all other pages), just skip the part where I said to "remove->non-mainspace". Equazcion  ( talk ) 17:55, 3 Jan 2015 (UTC)
 * What would be the procedure to rename a page? I guess you would have to first move the content to the new page then make the bot change all the tags to the name of the new page and finally make the old page redirect to the new page. Is that it? --PatateauChou (talk) 02:00, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure if it's possible to rename pages automatically with AWB. It operates on one page at a time, and doesn't have a method of auto-moving pages, or copying content between two pages. Something like that might need to be done manually, or with a custom-written bot, to my knowledge. Equazcion  ( talk ) 02:11, 4 Jan 2015 (UTC)

Fiery Greatsword
What is the source of your information that an unmodified fiery greatsword is 36 damage? According to my game, as well as a screenshot I can provide of my game, and of my Terraria.exe file attributes, it's 42 in Terraria 1.2.4.1.--Macks2008 (talk) 05:21, 9 January 2015 (UTC)

basically, I challenge your version of my edit--Macks2008 (talk) 05:22, 9 January 2015 (UTC)
 * My source is the game code, which I just double-checked. The Fiery Greatsword's damage is listed at 36. You might have a modifier or armor bonus in effect -- try un-equipping all items and deactivating all buffs; that might drop the damage back down to normal. Equazcion  ( talk ) 05:26, 9 Jan 2015 (UTC)
 * Oh! How about that, you're right. I was not counting on the Molten armor set's melee damage bonus. I switched my Molten Greaves into a social slot and the damage went back down. Curiously, I remembered taking a screenshot of a hacked character that I made for testing this who also had a 42 damage Fiery Greatsword, but after checking my screenshot, I notice he also had the Molten set. Seeing as the armor set and the sword are at the same tier of equipment (Hellstone Bar), should there maybe be a note on the page about the set bonus?--Macks2008 (talk) 04:49, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I don't think it's necessary to state the end result of stat bonuses on item pages. It doesn't really add much useful information, and although you might associate this particular bonus with this item due to the crafting material, it's a slippery slope to everyone posting stat bonuses they associate with items for whatever reason. Equazcion  ( talk ) 05:48, 10 Jan 2015 (UTC)
 * I suppose, but I'm inclined to inquire for better logical explanation, in order to safeguard against the "slippry slope fallacy". While I understand the concern people could start adding things willy-nilly (this so called slippery slope), I'm more concerned people might repeat my edit for the same reason I made it (they might equip the entire hellstone set and think the Fiery Greatsword damage went up), which would be around as bad as adding things due to a distant relationship. Maybe a routine check of that damage value is in order (possibly by a bot) at least? Also, where could I go to see the source code? I always like seeing the nuts and bolts of a good program, and I've been considering making a mod or two.
 * People edit stats and other things for all sorts of reasons often, and the changes are often inaccurate. As long as we have active editors watching Recent Changes, it's generally caught quickly. Instead of a bot, we could just keep stats on protected subpages, but this isn't enough of a problem currently to make that kind of move. It's best to keep as much as possible freely editable. You can download the source code here (you may need to register at that site first). Equazcion  ( talk ) 18:07, 11 Jan 2015 (UTC)
 * Ah, I should have known it'd be on mpgh.net. thanks!--Macks2008 (talk) 01:30, 12 January 2015 (UTC)

Remember
So remember that time in August of last year when I tried to create that article of the list of console items, you just deleted it... Beforehand you were on my side and saw the use for an article like that. 0icke0 and FyreNWater kept fighting me on the article to attempt to delete the article and in the end YOU DID. And then whenever i attempt to edit a stub article, my changes get deleted such as in the Tungsten Hammer article. What i'm saying is that I do not know how to write or edit a proper article or use complex expressions properly (0icke0 said to use a "regex" expression once and I had no clue what that was). Please help me and can you give me some articles that i could possibly try to work on. I don't want to be banned because i don't know what i'm doing...

Here's the link to how I found out an edit war was supposedly going on between us: Terraria Wiki:Admin noticeboard/Issues August 2014 I'm also curious why whenever i look at the history of pages that i previously edited my name appears red... ~User: DXOS3 15:44, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Someone else came and nominated the article for deletion again, and I myself had a change of heart. The page also wasn't anywhere near completion and you hadn't seemed to be active in a while. I've been thinking of better ways to achieve what you were doing through categories and may yet implement something.


 * Your additions to the Tungsten Hammer article consisted of a lot of general information that was best left to other articles (such as general Hammer and Ore information), or text that duplicated information already contained in the article's infobox (the upper-right box containing the item statistics). In the future, it's best to look over some similar articles for clues on what is and isn't appropriate to include, as well as style and format cues. Keep in mind, though, there isn't always something useful to add, and simply adding "filler material" purely for the sake of making the article longer will probably be reverted. Equazcion  ( talk ) 18:51, 10 Jan 2015 (UTC)


 * Offhand I don't know of articles that need work, but I'll keep an eye out. You won't get banned for sincerely trying to improve an article, as long as you communicate, and aren't adamant in reinstating your edits if several other experienced editors correct or revert them. Equazcion  ( talk ) 19:06, 10 Jan 2015 (UTC)
 * Your name appears red because it's a redlink, i.e. you didn't create a User page, which is not a problem, in case that was your concern.-- Just passing through, Macks2008 (talk) 13:05, 19 January 2015 (UTC)


 * IM BACK! Enough said, I was a stupid editor back then. But that's in the past.  I am now putting this page forward as a suggestion that I think all wiki editors and players alike should highly consider for the console edition of Terraria.  With the advent of 1.3 coming out the end of June and the fact that the developers of the console edition will not be able to match the PC version for a much longer time away, I highly reccommend a page like this would be very beneficial to the players of Terraria alike.  I thought this was a good idea a LONG TIME AGO(I suggested this on the advent of 1.2 coming out) and still think it good.  I don't want to fight and I would rather like the help of supporters to make the page a reality.  In conclusion, please consider my appeal for this page as it would help any console player to find an article from the list that could supposedly help them to progress or build or craft something inside the game... I think you admins don't really care on a persistence of just one user but if other people helped it would become a reality bigtime! I'm fully outta here if I can't get anything together as the wiki needs no work as you said in January(you said you would keep an eye out! Well, I checked this page every week for 5 weeks and I go NO ANSWER!) As for me "sincerely trying to improve articles" is something very interesting out there.  It's confusing because articles that could be considered stubs by some people can be too long for others.  The clues you get looking over other articles can widely vary in length and what they describe. At the time I saw lots of articles that restated the infobox in a description and others that did not so again I got confused.  I still to this day have not figured out what regex expressions are! Wow, why did i even get into wiki editing??? Apparently, being active also has to be a consideration for the activity of editing on a disliked-by-the-admins page... -DXOS3

 * There's also hunter. see, if we had a category you'd have been able to check :P
 * That said, I suppose you have a point... we don't need another useless category to add to the 500+ categories we already have--Macks2008 (talk) 14:04, 19 January 2015 (UTC)?

Hello
Hello I'm idow and I'm wondering if I can edit your page Lunar Boss to add an image, thanks idow
 * You can edit any page, they don't belong to anyone. Equazcion  ( talk ) 15:12, 19 Mar 2015 (UTC)

While you were out
Hey, just making you aware of some stuff that went down during your hiatus. You probably actually know about a lot of this but if you have any feedback or insight it'd be welcome. There's probably some other issues I'm forgetting but that's all that's pressing enough to come to mind at the moment.
 * In addition to myself, both Chrisf1020 and FyreNWater have been promoted to sysop status.
 * Following the announcement of Terraria: Otherworld, an informal poll determined that we'll likely be hosting that game's content here as well, as that seemed to be the preference of many editors as well as Curse staff.
 * Curse is putting more pressure on to integrate more video content (see these discussions). Considering that our current guides are in a bit of a sorry state, I've recommended they do a test post, and if all goes well we can use it as a framework to redo most of the content in the guide project. I've no idea what we'll do if it doesn't go well, as I don't think we have much say in the matter.
 * On a couple of pages (see Terra Blade) we've started moving most of the stats and recipe stuff to protected subpages. While it has apparently decreased vandalism on highly targeted pages without locking out editing entirely, we haven't moved forward with it much yet because of the potential technical concerns of having so much content transcluded from other pages.
 * The people behind Terraria: The Animated Series may want to discuss having their content posted on the wiki as well.

Welcome back, by the way. It's good to have someone around who knows what they're doing again. Gearzein (talk) 21:44, 25 March 2015 (UTC)


 * I'm happy we have more admins now, and you three have certainly shown that you'd be assets there.
 * I'm on board with Otherworld info coming to the wiki. We may need to set up a new namespace for that, but any release is probably still too far off to start worrying yet.
 * As for videos, I'd been rethinking my stance on those recently anyway. We could use the participation they might bring, and I like the idea of making them guide-y in order to aide or replace the wiki's guides. I'd personally given up on the guide areas here, as they are in such terrible shape and I think the concept of crowdsourced game strategy guides might have been flawed from the get-go. Having some sort of central authority drive them might be the better course. I look forward to seeing what User:CrsDash comes up with.
 * Transcluding locked subpages for infoboxes and recipes might be a good idea, but we can roll it out as-needed for pages that see frequent vandalism of that type. If we were to make any sweeping conversion to those (I'm on the fence as to whether we should, currently), it would probably be wise to wait until after 1.3 is released, so the community can contribute to documenting the massive number of changes that 1.3 is likely to bring.
 * I know zilch about the animated series. If that becomes a serious request I'll have to get educated.
 * And, thanks for the welcome :) Equazcion  ( talk ) 03:21, 26 Mar 2015 (UTC)

Beginners guide
Hey, what was your rationale for preserving Guide:Beginners? It's not a great page. I can't see much in it that's worth keeping, but I'm a bit reluctant to just go ahead and delete it, because I figured you have a plan for it or something. Gearzein (talk) 21:06, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
 * I didn't have a particular plan; I just wanted to move it to the right place and link it (it had been created in mainspace). I was reluctant to pull the trigger quickly on something somebody seemed to have put effort into, but at this point you can feel free to use your discretion in dealing with it. I'm usually not in any particular hurry to police the Guide: area since it's all such a fundamental mess. Equazcion  ( talk ) 21:20, 13 Apr 2015 (UTC)

Boss Spawners
You guys should make a page dedicated to all the boss spawners just saying :):">"
 * There's already a category for that purpose. There's not much to be said about them that isn't covered in individual pages either. Gearzein (talk) 22:22, 27 April 2015 (UTC)

help with dutch translation
hey, you say your good with wiki code, i'm trying to make more pages to the dutch translation of the wiki, but im horrible with templates and bold text and titles, could you help me with that or look trough te pages at least?
 * I'll take a look at the Dutch pages when I can sure. Equazcion  ( talk ) 20:24, 4 Jun 2015 (UTC)
 * thanks!

French things
Hey, thank you to help me for the interwiki war ! But don't put french link on the English wiki, we're waiting the true translation of every words. French is a very complex language. --  Dinoxel  discussion  16:02, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
 * I was just noticing how many common pages existed on our wikis with missing links. But I'll leave the interwiki links to you if you want. You're much more bilingual than me anyway :) Equazcion  ( talk ) 16:05, 13 Jun 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes that's true, I want to connect them too. What do you mean by "leave the interwiki links", place them on the French or English wiki ? You'll make me blush. :X But you you're definitely better programmer than me. :D
 * I noticed that I can't paste huge page again (like enemy). Does it exists an other way to paste than create some parts like we did a long time ago?
 * When the 1.3 will release, could you give me the file with true French names ? And will you help me to replace every wrong names on every pages ? :D --  Dinoxel  discussion  16:15, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
 * I was copying the page titles I found on the French wiki, to make sure I used the right words. I wasn't trying to translate them myself. But if they still might be wrong for some reason I understand. I meant I'll stop posting interwiki links for now and let you handle it instead.
 * I don't think there is any way other than pasting. If you want I can give it a try, or you can email wiki@curse.com to request help.
 * Yes, when 1.3 is released and the source code is available I can send you the language file. I'll do the replacements too, just make a big list of them and let me know. Equazcion  ( talk ) 16:22, 13 Jun 2015 (UTC)
 * You can continue to add English links in French pages but not the reverse for now.
 * I'll send a mail now. After thinking, it's probably a problem with the French Gamepedia server located to Paris. EDIT : Game widow is talking a look.
 * Thank you. I have done the Item IDs, you could use it (I can make a second Item IDs with true French translation too). And I'll put your bot as an Administrator so it will be able to replace everything everywhere. --  Dinoxel  discussion  16:46, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Hey Equazcion, I know you're really busy right now but when you'll have time, could you send me the French File with every translated names of everything. (Does I'll be able to see what's write ?) --  Dinoxel  discussion  14:34, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Forget it, they didn't change anything since the 1.1.2. --  Dinoxel  discussion  14:42, 1 July 2015 (UTC)

Challenges
Could I make a page that people can post challenges for other people or is there already one somewhere


 * Guide:Ideas seems to be along those lines. Equazcion  ( talk ) 07:25, 16 Jun 2015 (UTC)

French problems (Again)
Hey, I noticed two problems on this page. Could you please check them when you'll be available.
 * First, there is no lines between each items.
 * Then, the image of the placed Lhizhard Furnace don't want to appear. --  Dinoxel  discussion  23:28, 24 June 2015 (UTC)

Add this to fr:MediaWiki:Common.css:

The image of the placed furnace does appear for me. Try hard-refreshing your browser (ctrl-F5)? Equazcion ( talk ) 23:44, 24 Jun 2015 (UTC)

Also in fr:Modèle:Crafts first sub row, replace each  with    Equazcion  ( talk ) 00:17, 25 Jun 2015 (UTC)


 * I did everything you told me. It's working, thank you ! --  Dinoxel  discussion  00:52, 25 June 2015 (UTC)


 * No problem. I also just realized those pages had  in each row; that was probably the main reason no lines were showing. That's only supposed to go on the first row. I fixed that on a few pages I found.  Equazcion  ( talk ) 01:48, 25 Jun 2015 (UTC)


 * Thank you to have fixed it ;) --  Dinoxel  discussion  02:39, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

Hey, I noticed that several furnitures have the ID and the craft in one table (like table) and others it is separate (like chandelier). I want to know if it will be the same on every furnitures ? --  Dinoxel  discussion  14:45, 25 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Hopefully everything will be in one table. Right now, Chandelier has two tables mostly because we needed to list all the different chandelier prices -- the crafts table can't show prices yet. IDs are in the other table because of a display problem I ran into, but I think I just fixed it, and I'll be moving the IDs over the the crafts table now. Equazcion  ( talk ) 15:02, 25 Jun 2015 (UTC)
 * If you want to copy Template:Crafts first sub row to the French wiki now, I think you'll be able to list your IDs in all the crafts tables. We'll be doing that, likely from now on. I don't have a solution for listing prices yet, so when there are several different prices we may still be using separate tables for those, for now. Equazcion  ( talk ) 15:18, 25 Jun 2015 (UTC)
 * We now have sell value display in the crafts table. Copy Template:Crafts row, Template:Crafts first sub row, and Template:Value if you want to add it at the French wiki, and see Chandelier for an example of how it's used. Equazcion  ( talk ) 16:31, 25 Jun 2015 (UTC)


 * Nice work, I'll copy that thank you. ;) By the way in the futur, could you tell me when you change things in important templates (Like ajax) --  Dinoxel  discussion  17:23, 25 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Sure, I can try to remember that ... although I won't always remember, and there are other people who could make changes to templates. This is a wiki after all. It's best to check recent template changes once in a while (like via this), but I'll try and give you a heads up. Equazcion  ( talk ) 17:35, 25 Jun 2015 (UTC)


 * Thank you for the link, I saved it. --  Dinoxel  discussion  17:48, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
 * I don't understand here why there is no line between Steampunk Boiler and Work Brench. It's exactly the same as the English page ! --  Dinoxel  discussion  02:52, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
 * problem again, fixed now :) Equazcion  ( talk ) 02:56, 26 Jun 2015 (UTC)
 * Thank you again! And I notice that the Large Dynasty Lantern is in the placed chandeliers picture. So is this a Lantern or a Chandelier ? --  Dinoxel  discussion  03:10, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
 * It's unclear what it is. It's in the placed Chandeliers because whoever originally updated the page assumed it was a chandelier. I say it's a lantern -- its crafting ingredients are more similar to the other lanterns (it doesn't take a chain like the chandeliers), it's called a lantern, and the crafting station is the workbench, like the other lanterns, not the anvil like the chandeliers. We'll need to update the placed image. Equazcion  ( talk ) 03:15, 26 Jun 2015 (UTC)
 * Huhu ! Sorry to be meticulous. And you're right with your details, you have conviced me. --  Dinoxel  discussion  03:31, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
 * No problem, I'm kinda meticulous myself here. :) Equazcion  ( talk ) 04:12, 26 Jun 2015 (UTC)
 * Hye, I saw that you modifiy "MediaWiki:Common.js" and added "MediaWiki:ImageForeignUseCheck.js‎". Do I have to do something ? --  Dinoxel  discussion  13:29, 28 June 2015 (UTC)

No, this only relates to the English wiki. It's a way for us to check if an image here is used on a foreign language wiki. The other language wikis don't serve as central image sources like the English version does. Equazcion ( talk ) 13:32, 28 Jun 2015 (UTC)
 * Ok I understand, thanks. I tried to modify what is write when an ajax table is loading here, but now the ajax tempalte doesn't work anymore. --  Dinoxel  discussion  16:36, 28 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Replace the failure line with this: cell.text("Impossible de charger cette table; la source de l'article ne semble pas exister."); Equazcion  ( talk ) 16:39, 28 Jun 2015 (UTC)
 * ...and replace the success line with this: cell.text("Attendez s'il vous plait, le contenu est en train de charger..."); Equazcion  ( talk ) 16:40, 28 Jun 2015 (UTC)
 * Thank you again :X --  Dinoxel  discussion  18:00, 28 June 2015 (UTC)

New 1.3 spoilers
I know it's kind of hard to maintain sources on these, but the developers have been participating in several 1.3 prerelease live streams tonight. Most of the new information coming in is from player observation in those. I don't know how much of that spoiler information should be taken at face value, as some values are still being adjusted in response to viewer input, but most of it is valid. Gearzein (talk) 10:01, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
 * It just occurred to me that I read the times on the deletion log wrong, so you may know this already. Gearzein (talk) 10:05, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
 * There will be a lot to fix later, and likely some inaccuracies that slip by and remain in articles, if we allow a free-for-all during the spoiler streams. The release is only hours away now, so I don't think it will hurt to make everyone wait til the bits they want to post can be verified. I'd take a relaxed approach to the upcoming features page, since it will be moot soon anyway, but the individual articles on future features are mostly going to be around permanently and I think it may cause problems to base them on shaky ground. Equazcion  ( talk ) 10:12, 29 Jun 2015 (UTC)
 * I just noticed your page creations. I don't think that's much of a problem if they stay general and just declare the item names and classes. Equazcion  ( talk ) 10:16, 29 Jun 2015 (UTC)
 * I didn't create most of the pages, just put them in order with the other 1.3 items on the wiki. So far I've been trying to take the same approach as I have with other spoiled items- a limited page that treats it like it's not out yet so it isn't a red link when it's looked up but doesn't list any stats or too much information.
 * This post was an edit conflict- I was going to ask if you'd rather they be deleted, but if the solution so far works I've no problem with policing them for consistency and to weed out speculation. Gearzein (talk) 10:21, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
 * As long as you've seen the items yourself I have no problem with the pages remaining. When new editors create pages etc for things we've never heard of before, we can't be bothered to go searching for evidence of them, or have a batch of "maybe" material to look through and verify once the release happens. I'm about to post somethng at community noticeboard detailing how I plan to go about this. Equazcion  ( talk ) 10:28, 29 Jun 2015 (UTC)

I know I should be...
...looking through the source code to get all the info up, but I'm having too much fun. Equazcion ( talk ) 22:04, 30 Jun 2015 (UTC)
 * I plan on doing infoboxes later tonight or early tomorrow for sure. All I've been able to do so far is patrol edits and make minor changes, as we've been getting several edits/minute. <font face="Tw Cen Mt"> Chrisf1020  (talk)  22:12, 30 June 2015 (UTC)
 * I'm spending too much time fighting aliens and flying around in my UFO mount. I think Icke will be getting basic stats up at some point using automated means direct form the source code, so you might want to hold off for a little bit in case your manual efforts are for naught. Thanks for patrolling during this hectic time :) Equazcion  ( talk ) 22:15, 30 Jun 2015 (UTC)
