Hi Gracey, I was just wondering (since it said it on the automated post), what would be needed on the Wiki? As far as I can tell, quite a lot of the content is covered, and covered very well. I look forward to helping however I can. --Mr.Buckethat, esquire. 16:49, January 6, 2012 (UTC)

Multiple Page Edits
Hey there Gracey, hope you're well. I'd just like to apologise for repeatedly editing so many pages. My slow internet speed (which will be fixed in 3 days) seems to mess up the editor's perception of my edit content at times... But yeah, I'll try keep it more under raps. 12:35, January 3, 2012 (UTC)

Gracey91, why does it say that I'm banned for spamming links to other web pages? I haven't spammed a single link to anything. 195.229.236.212 11:46, January 4, 2012 (UTC)

Little bit of Confusion
Heya Gracey, hope your new year's going well so far. I just thought I'd mention a slight Achievement glitch that I noticed; The wiki gave me two "Bridge Builder" badges, probably due to the speed with which I added the categories. 09:56, January 5, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hey Path, everythings been pretty good. How about you, having fun? With the badge, thats strange i will notify wikia staff about it. Wikia has quite a few issues with a number of its features as i'm sure your aware, so this may just fix itself in a bit. Gracey91 (talk • contribs • count) 10:05, January 5, 2012 (UTC)


 * That's good to hear, it's been pretty good on my end, catching up with friends before school comes back in, heh. Guess we'll have to wait and see if Wikia figures itself out then. In the meantime I guess I have no reason to complain ^_^ 10:07, January 5, 2012 (UTC)

Hey my friend i am wanting to turn the front page into a news feed. so that i can cover something then the next thing i cover gets pushed to the top and everything cycles down. any ideas?

Ey i just wanna let you know that no one can edit "Hellstone bars" and i was wondering if you could change that...

well i mean similar to the the feed on the terraria forum.

and also i belive i am starting a forum for the wikiHeroGaming 09:22, January 8, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks
Hi, thanks for the tip... I had no idea that page even existed. I'm still kind of getting the hang of things, so please excuse me if I do anything retarded.

Also, I came up with some ideas for a new wiki background, and notified Dratini, but I have no idea exactly how active he is, and if/when he'll even see it. I do know, however, that you are incredibly active, and I thought I'd notify you as well. Check out the New Background section of Dratini's talk page if you're interested.

Disregard this, got your message right as I published it. Sorry.

Coins Infobox
You should change the copper coins image on the Coins Infobox from that of a hundred to one, to make it fit in better with the others. I would do it myself, but apparently it's protected. The replacement image I had in mind was item_71.png.

Motion for Individual Pages and Consistency
Gracey,

It is the precedence on this wiki that some pages contain information for multiple (but highly related) items and monsters. After thinking about it for a while, I would like to challenge this notion by making the following proposition:
 * Each and every single item and monster in the game be given its own page
 * Conglomerate pages such as Watch or Slime Monsters would become disambiguation pages that link to each individual item/monster page. Or, if there is sufficient information for a content page, then the conglomerate page would become a content page that links to each individual page while also summarizing key points and concepts (Writing only on the general content page, no infoboxes. Infoboxes for each individual item go on each individual page).
 * Each item/monster page would contain links to each of the other related pages
 * This proposal would not apply to concepts/game features/etc. Only to monsters and items.
 * For consistency, I would like to apply this even to the Pressure Plate page. Each pressure plate is technically a separate item and they do have different pictures and names, even if the stats are the same.

I present the following reasons for proposing this change:
 * This layout would more accurately represent the game itself, while also eliminating any possible confusion as to which items are related and should go on the same page, and which ones aren't related enough to go on the same page.
 * Individual pages would be quicker and easier to read, because less information would be on each page and readers wouldn't have to waste time (even if it's just a few seconds) deciding what information pertains to which item.
 * Each individual item/monster should have its own infobox. A single infobox that contains information for multiple items/monsters does not look very pretty, especially when the items/monsters have different stats. Also, pages with multiple infoboxes do not look as clean as pages with a single infobox.
 * This design proposal is already in usage. Example: Repeaters and the 4 different repeater pages for each individual item. Also, any of the armor set pages and the pages for each individual piece of armor.
 * This proposal establishes a clear, reasonable and consistent standard to go by as new patches come out and the game expands.
 * The Terraria Online wiki generally adheres to this layout as well.
 * This project isn't too ambitious. The vast majority of this wiki uses this layout. I just want to make it absolutely consistent.

Potential issues and how this proposal addresses them:
 * Complete information for multiple items/monsters would no longer be in the same place. Links and disambiguation pages allow for quick and easy navigation.
 * The amount of redundant information could increase. Information common to multiple items would go on the disambiguation page (if there's only a little bit of info). If there's a lot of info in common, a general content page would be used instead of a disambiguation page. Only information specific to a particular item would go on that item's page.

Should you find this proposal agreeable, I can do all of the necessary work of moving information, creating new pages, linking everything appropriately, etc. I would not be adding or removing any information or doing any sort of editorial work (although I suppose I might quickly check for grammar and spelling). Only moving things around. I would also probably maintain a "project status" blog entry, which would contain a list of all pages created/changed as well as the ones I'm still intending to work on.

 * Hey i agree with your proposal, you welcome to go ahead. One question but you mention you don't like multiple infoboxs on pages, so how do you plan on dealing with boss pages like The Twins? Gracey91 (talk • contribs • count) 04:38, January 9, 2012 (UTC)

Mathmagician ( Σ talk ♥ blog ∞ contributions ) 04:11, January 9, 2012 (UTC)


 * I was just thinking about the lack of disambiguation pages a few days ago, and would gladly help out with this project, if you'd like.

Dzylon 04:44, January 9, 2012 (UTC)


 * Okay thanks, I'll get right on that then. Very good point you bring up. I would make an exception for The Twins. I see The Twins as a single boss entity, and the pieces are sort of like the segments of worm enemies. (It would be silly to make individual pages for segments of a worm, since they are part of the same monster.)


 * I'm not entirely against having multiple infoboxes on the same page, it's just that the current implementation of infoboxes only allows them to float on the right.. and when there's a bunch of that it's not pretty in my opinion.


 * Perhaps in the future, infoboxes could be modified so that a parameter could be used to float it at a specific location. For example, I think The Twins be also improved by floating the infoboxes next to each other left/right, rather than above/below. And/or maybe a formatting template could be created to facilitate the placement of multiple infoboxes on the same page.


 * The pages that I want to change are not special cases like this. I'm talking about things that are obviously separate items/monsters, like the different colors of watches that have different stats and crafting recipes, or like pressure plates or dungeon bricks. These items may be related, but they do not stack together and they are not part of a single entity like Retinazer/Spazmatism forming the Twins.


 * Mathmagician ( Σ talk ♥ blog ∞ contributions ) 05:18, January 9, 2012 (UTC)


 * I'll see what i can come up with. Gracey91 (talk • contribs • count) 08:05, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

hiya buddy
sent you a message on youtube. to much internal business for the wiki talk to you later my friendHeroGaming 11:08, January 9, 2012 (UTC)

Tim here again
Thanks for the earlier help, I have another question and a suggestion. Question being how do I review available infobox templates and what information points they contain? Suggestion being, could we change "Continuous Attack" in the Weapons infobox to "Style" where the options could be "Click to attack" and "Automatic" or something to that effect? "Continuous Attack" seems a bit long-winded for an infobox given the size constraints and there is always that chance they'll incorporate some other method for attacking. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the message.

hey Btw. if you see that i edited the mythril sword saying that it might be weaker, I didn't have a mythril sword and relied on the wiki, which 3 hours later I noticed that the information was false. so someone has put the wrong information on the mythril sword about DMG. just to let you know. I would change it but i sold my mythril sword because it didn't auto swing and i had a godly cobalt sword so i don't know the information anymore.

If you played terraria to hardmode, what was the best way to get rid of corruption and hollow. because I've been building on my map and all that trying to stop it and te corruption already covering 14 pecent and is increasing exponentially.

A Request For An Admin
Gracey, we both know that there is a user that is an incredible influence on the wikia. That user is Mathmagician Math has helped many pages, made many walkthroughs to help MANY players, & is generally just a grand assistance to the wikia. So for the love of god why ISN'T Math an admin?! Signed, Koggeh

My Apologies
You may have noticed I've been making multiple edits to the same pages. It may seem like I'm trying to run up my edit count, but I'm really not... you can reduce that to zero for all I care. I'm just a little OCD, and every time I publish an edit, my mind finds something else I can do to improve the page in some way, or make it look nicer somehow. I'm sorry if I'm spamming the edit history with countless edits.

Also, +1 on the Mathmagician admin proposition above.

Blog Posts
I wrote a blog post, but it's not showing up here. Does it just take time to load the changes, or did I not do something right?

The Video was an accident, it IS my fault yes but the video wasn't. Taneer gave me the video link. I do NOT blame Taneer in any way, shape, or form & I will make sure I shall not incorrectly use the video system again. Koggeh

Images in templates
Hey Gracey, um for the twins pics, a few things to say. Before I couldn't figure out how to put them in, but I figured it out. That night I did it, I talked to Dratini17, the founder, and I figured it out, BUT I FORGOT TO LOGIN WHEN I DID IT! D; But it was done. Btw sorry about the Eye of Cthulhu pic uploading, I just thought I didn't upload it right, and I didn't know it was against the policy, so sorry about that. Oh and has Hero ever made a building vid? If it is alright with all of the admins and Hero, then I would love to have Hero make a building vid of my buildings. So again, sorry about the EoC pics, bye.

hey, question
So, I was helping Math with his Indivisual Projects...project, and I was going to work on the bricks. but I noticed that the page said they had been deleted in June of last year. Should i just leave them as they are, or fill them out? (Blue Brick, Green Brick, Pink Brick, sorry for no links.) Thanks. :3

Edit: Dzlyon found a way around it, and put the page not created link for Blue on my Blue Wall page, and Im assuming he did the same to Pink and Green. So I guess Ill just work on them. heres a copy of the log though:

New Images
Several items are missing from the Picture Database. I'm adding a few for the Disambig project, so please don't delete them. I did notify Kiruwugaka, but I'm not sure if he's active anymore. These images were created from the game files (same way he made them) so they look identical to how they would look if he had made them instead. Just letting you know. They do still need to be added to the database itself, though, but only he has the rights to edit that page (if I'm not mistaken). The images are in the new photos section if you want to take a look.
