= Other issues =

Blocked edit from a filter
An attempt to add an internation link to a page in another (Russian) language was blocked by the filter "Too many foreign letters or repeat symbols". Well that's how it works I guess. (In that case I tried to add russian link on Tile IDs, but it would also prevent from adding any other link of this kind. The link itself gets blocked even here) Pickpocke (talk) 10:35, 9 January 2020 (UTC)


 * Thank you for reporting this. I added the interwiki link in question (see edit) and also modified the filter so that it allows adding those from now on, regardless of number of foreign letters. Apparently, interwiki links weren't considered when that filter was set up, so thank you again for noting it! --Rye Greenwood (talk) 04:02, 11 January 2020 (UTC)

Login Issues
Permissions problem: Was getting an odd message on all profile pages including my own: "You do not have permission to add comments or reply. Please make sure you are logged in, have validated your email address, and have performed at least one edit to an article.". At that point it looked from the top bar like I was logged in, but I tried logging out and then back in. The site told me all logins should go to the main Gamepedia portal... Then it force-redirected me to the Twitch portal to log in, but after logging in I got "Forbidden - CSRF token invalid", and I am not logged in.

 * Not being able to comment is a known issue (ticket), probably caused by the platform update from yesterday. It appears to have been fixed very recently, though.
 * Are you still unable to log in? --Rye Greenwood (talk) 21:57, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Yup, just tried it now. Same message.   MentalMouse42 /  --71.62.166.54 01:10, 23 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Still broken. MentalMouse42 --71.62.166.54 23:30, 24 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Aha -- after another couple of refreshes, now it's let me log in again. --MentalMouse42 (talk) 23:36, 24 January 2020 (UTC)

Page evaluation Problems
"Expansion depth limit exceeded" all over Trophies and Royal Gel pages, dunno where else but if it's hitting both of those it will be elsewhere. --MentalMouse42 (talk) 13:53, 23 February 2020 (UTC)


 * Thanks for reporting, should be all fixed now. A simple purge was all that was needed. For the future: All pages with this specific error are categorized in Category:Pages where expansion depth is exceeded. You can also find other maintenance categories like that one in Category:Things to do. --Rye Greenwood (talk) 19:37, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

Broken page
The crafting table of https://terraria.gamepedia.com/Mining_Potion is broken and is saying "Lua error module:item at line 146: attempt to concatenate local 'link' (a nil value). 47.40.26.130 05:29, 26 March 2020 (UTC)


 * Errors should've cleared up by now - there was some backend changes related to the recipes template. --Eraloiz (talk) 12:37, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Category:Things to do
Another people do not need to edit this page. Protect it. ← Alex Great talk/rus? 07:08, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

Cargo tables, Drilldown -> "Permission error" for anonymous users
I understand if it's disallowed because it's cpu intensive or whatnot, but if it's just an oversight, please add permission for anonymous IPs to use it. Atm I just use offset=0&limit=10000 to work around it which is probably more resource intensive. 84.248.92.236 06:49, 13 May 2020 (UTC)

Missing data from Cargo table
The Items_new cargo table seems to no longer contain yoyos which has broken the table on the Yoyos page. EDIT: Has now been fixed. TrockDoge (talk) 10:29, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

Unsure What To Do
Hello. I have a problem. I am only knowledgeable with stuff prior to Old One's Army. Now that there's been some updates, I unsure what I can do. Any tips? Anything that hasn't changed? I also am not very good with images and GIFs.Pispacedolphinmachinegun (talk) 16:35, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

Infoboxes
So I made a notice on the community noticeboard that there's no offical Dreadnautilus infobox. Someone made one and it hasn't been ready to transclude. I'm also wonderingHow do I create an infobox? Actually, how do I create a template?Pispacedolphinmachinegun (talk) 16:25, 22 May 2020 (UTC)

Yoyo page - all images broken
All of the images are broken on the Yoyo page https://terraria.gamepedia.com/Yoyos


 * What are you talking about? They are all there for me. --172.58.4.138 23:39, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

Inflammatory comments
I am bringing the behavior of User:Sebine and associated IP Special:Contributions/66.168.225.100 to attention for inflammatory comments and personal attacks left in edit summaries/talk pages. Many thanks. -- Breathlessblizzard (talk) 05:49, 25 May 2020 (UTC)

Recipes: Critter statues
In Recipes/Heavy Work Bench, Bird, Bunny and Fish statue's traditional recipe has a 3DS icon. 3DS doesn't even have Heavy Work Bench thus the logic should be instead? -- Creeper_NoDenial (talk) 14:18, 26 May 2020 (UTC)

NPC infobox $auto in a mess
Like take Green Slime as an example. Expert mode damage 112 max life 324? That's nowhere close to the proper value... I see that infobox template is getting a lot of updates recently and hopefully you're working on this issue and the addition of Master mode NPC stats.

The Expert mode damage is not just post-Plantera damage either. Check Slime where the data is the same as when I first edited Blue Slime to add in Master mode data- Blue Slime is currently displaying the data I updated, and in the brackets with a question mark are the data from $auto.

The max life and damage data for blue slime are a bit messy from this, I know, but it's better than telling people the wrong expert mode data and missing master mode data.

I hope that the data for $auto can be fixed and have Master mode data included asap. Thanks a lot! --Creeper_NoDenial (talk) 15:20, 26 May 2020 (UTC)

Update: I’ve checked just now and on Green Slime’s page it said Blue Slime banner. Added “banner = yes” for a fix but well, to make its code cleaner, this should be dealt with by fixing auto information. —-Creeper_NoDenial (talk) 23:48, 27 May 2020 (UTC) (Yeah I’m too lazy to log in as I’m on phone)

Editing Issue
I was trying to edit the reference to the Town Bunny name "Inaba" since I incorrectly thought it was Tewi Inaba, but after thinking things over more, I realized the reference was more likely to be the character Reisen Udongein Inaba from Touhou. I tried to edit my edit, but I got an error saying something about the new edit was inappropriate despite linking to the same sources as Tewi, and I'm not really sure what I did differently or wrong... 70.112.20.156 05:05, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

Lesion Chest as incorrect recipe
The lesion chest is listed as the only chest that does not require 2 bars of any iron to craft. In game, however, 2 iron bars are required to craft the chest just like any other chest. The Guide NPC verifies this crafting recipe.


 * Good catch! I've updated the recipe. --Eraloiz (talk) 23:17, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
