I'm not sure where I used that since you apparently removed it before I could make any corrections. Is there any reason why I can not link to those pages. The reason I wrote this is I could not seem to find any information about or links to the User and User Talk pages. These methods where not known to me and I can see why some people would be lost trying to figure how the simplest in the WIKI system works. I found many elaborate and extensive formatting methods but it has been years since I have done any programming at all. Your really quick on the draw with new input.

In the case of the cloud skatefish I wanted to identify that it was a link, as it is now you can not tell easily that the word is a link and so not many will follow to view the detailed information.

| == PWI Wiki - Guilds ==
| |
|
| |
| Well then why don't you actually do your job?
| |
|
| |
| 65% of you heaven's tears guilds listed, ARE NOT IN EXISTANCE any more.
| |
|
| |
| 25% are out dated - different leaders or website gone.
| |
|
| |
| the remaining 10% are factions that are not on Heavens Tear.
| |
|
| |
| Besides, what is the purpose of having a number for a link?
| |
|
| |
| Why not just show the whole link?
| |
|
| |
| Do you think you are impressing us? You aren't. -- [[User:Kyrrel|Kyrrel]] 21:59, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
| |
|
| |
| :First of all, it is '''not''' my job to keep track of every faction that is listed on those pages on every server. I don't know where you got the impression that that was my job, but that is false.
| |
| :Second of all, if you have evidence that those factions are not in existence, changed leaders, or are listed incorrectly, anyone can update them. As a side note, I would rather have a nonexistent faction be listed, than accidentally remove an existing faction that has merely downsized or changed websites.
| |
| :Third, your first four points have nothing to do with what I wrote to you earlier. You didn't do anything about those problems either, when it is fully within your power to do so. Furthermore, I did not create those lists, nor do I maintain them in any other way that making sure that they follow a common format and that they are not vandalized.
| |
| :Fourth, I didn't say that you couldn't show the whole link, I just said that I wanted the Guild Directory pages done in a standard way. Your edit where you unnecessarily added "Server:" to every listing was prior to your removing the brackets around the links, so that's why it and all following revisions got undone. If you think we should change it that way, then, as I stated earlier, I'm open to hearing your reasons why, I just don't see the difference. You say, "Why not?", but I asked "Why?" first. If your reason sounds good, then all Guild Directories should be changed the same way, and not just one of them.
| |
| :Finally, there is no need to be insulting. It doesn't make what you say any more valid. If you have constructive criticism I'm more than happy to listen to that, but I won't waste my time listening to empty insults. -- [[User:Sangodoc|<span style="color:#CCCCFF;font-weight:bold;">Sangodoc - PWI wiki mod</span>]] [[User talk:Sangodoc|<span style="color:#9999CC;font-weight:bold;">(talk)</span>]] 22:36, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

| == Mob/Pet Bio Pages ==
| |
|
| |
| Thanks for making the corrections separating the mob stats from the pet stats. I realized this after uploading the page but was unsure about which stats belonged to the pre-pet state of the creature. After making some adjustments I will use your input as a reference in making the other pages.
| |
|
| |
| Also, I would like to add the creature bio page as a template once I have the format a little more settled. I would like your input about his since it would be used as a standard bio page.
| |
|
| |
| Also, I agree that a better way is needed in identifying text links and wondered if using a colored caret symbol after the text<br>
| |
| '''Such as:''' [[Cloud Skatefish]][[Cloud Skatefish|<span style="color:#318CE7">^</span>]] <br>
| |
| as a text link indicator would be better than coloring the whole text?
| |
|
| |
| Well I just couldn't wait so I made "Template Pages" as an index page and a template page: "Monster and Pet Bio Template". I also changed the Cloud Skatefish bio page using the info that you provided. I hope this is satisfactory. <br>

| ----
| |
| In response to your corrections and input to my recent work:
| |
| <br><br>
| |
| I think this is where I should make my replies??
| |
| <br><br>
| |
| Oh, SORRY about deleting my previous discussion on your talk page I didn't think about it until after. My Bad!
| |
| <br><br>
| |
| Ok, I screwed up making the Template page. <br>I look all over for information about how to make a template page but did not find the information that you gave me, just example pages. If I did see one it was not explained so I knew what it was and how to use it. I see how this would be the perfect way to protect the original Template. Would a template page be locked?
| |
| So how would one go about using my template with such extensive information to input? How would the Monster and Pet Bio Template page work, cut & paste? It's not like a form with fields, would someone input there values and a new page would be configured using those new values? Then would have to "save as" (the page that you want)?<br>
| |
| I guess that I could still use the Template Page index page as the link for these pages, right? <br>
| |
| How about an Example page, so someone like me doesn't input the wrong values like I did when I mixed the monster and pet stats? I'm trying to avoid some of these possible input errors.
| |
| <br><br>
| |
| About the Monster and Pet Bio page Magic Defense table: <br>
| |
| I added the "Non Elemental" column because some monsters do not have an elemental base so I guess the Magic Defense table would be left blank or have N/A in the table fields.
| |
| <br><br>
| |
| About the Link identifier:<br>
| |
| I am glad to here that you are working on the Link visibility problem. I'm not sure if I should continue to make pages until you have completed your methodology with this problem. OR will you be able to change all the page links to your new method with some wiki programming wizardry? Until I hear from you I will hold off on uploading any pages. How long do you expect before it is done?<br>
| |
| Just want to let you know your effort, patients and guidance is appreciated.

| == FB79 doors ==
| |
|
| |
| the section on the hallucinatory trench instance states that the doors that open are opened at random. I know this has been popularly the believed, however, for a while it was also believed that the fb39 doors were opened at random too.
| |
|
| |
| according to what I have seen in fbs/bhs there is a mob in the first room after the entrance room that wanders. there is also a room a little while after that hass 2 doors, one goes to stygean and one to hooli. killing the wandering mob in the first room opens the door to hooli whose kill in turn opens the door to stygean. avoiding the mob in the first room opens the door to stygean which in turn opens the door to hooli.
| |
|
| |
| I will have to confirm this later but it may also be that killing the mob in the room before stygean opens the way past loon and avoiding him leave the shorter way open to the large center room on the way to linus/brig. or possible the other way around.
| |
|
| |
| I think this could use some testing. I will do what I can as I get into squads but without a decent sampling it could just be chance that it works this way. --[[User:Swalsh|Swalsh]] 18:20, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
| |
|
| |
| :I'm pretty sure this isn't the case, since sometimes squads ask a sin to stealth and go look whether or not the Styg door is open. It would be easy enough to test though - have the sin stealth in and then kill everything and have the sin watch to see which kill opens the door. --[[User:Vitenks|Vitenka]] 13:14, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

| ::Oh, rereading your post; it certainly isn't exactly what you suggest; since yesterday I killed that wandering mob and had the door to styg be open. It's still just possibly one of the others though. --[[User:Vitenks|Vitenka]] 13:15, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

If you have any suggestions for it, please let me know.
| |
| :Next, the reason why the icons are grouped alphabetically is so that if someone knows the name of the icon (by hovering their mouse over it), it will be easier to find. Any other grouping I can think of would be arbitrary and difficult to search on, not to mention that some icons would fit into multiple categories of the ones you named.
| |
| :Finally, I do have the rest of the missing icons (though Genesis will probably add some new ones) and some other missing information, I just haven't gotten around to putting that up yet. I'll try to get that done soon.

| == Learn about tools for effective communication ==
| |
|
| |
| Format is everything about delivery. You obviously need to understand more about effective delivery of content if you're going to continue reverting the red coloured text I placed in the Demon vs Sage guide. If the content is fluid in format, and there is something that sharply contrasts that format then it means that it is significant to the understanding of that content. You also fail to understand the need for white spacing as the bullets dont work on the wiki.
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| For your information, I will continue to be adding back the red font on the key points in large chunks of text. The bold typeface on this wiki is not distinct enough to say "bold is good enough". If any of your edits involve reverting the red font without actually contributing other points or fixes, they will be reverted - as a heads up.
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| Furthermore some of your changes are completely ignorant to the fact that 2 servers - Harshands and Lost City do not abide by regular Perfect world names or ancyronyms. Terms likes HH (Holy Hall) replace TT (Twilight Temple), and CV (Crescent Valley) replace LG (Lunar Glade). There is an overwhelming prescence of PW-MY players on these servers. To target these audiences one needs to include terms that they use.
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| Again this comes down to over-zealous and oblivious moderating of the wiki with failure to understand the readers of the content. -- [[User:Angellicdeity|Angellicdeity]] 11:06, 12 June 2011 (UTC)
| |
|
| |
| : Apologies for the late reply, I didn't see your message until now. First of all, there is no need to be so rude. If you have something to discuss with me, you don't need to be insulting about it. That is hardly "effective communication".
| |
| : Regarding "red colored text", one can emphasize text without using glaring colors. Red text distracts the eye from the current text, causing people to skip ahead to see what it is. Bold is far less distracting thus works far better. And yes, '''bold text''' is clearly distinct enough, as you could tell that I just used it in this sentence. I'm not sure what you're referring to regarding "bullets".
| |
| : Furthermore, I'm fully aware that some people on two servers use PWMY names for some things. However, '''that doesn't matter'''. The correct names are used ''by the game'' on all of the servers, and '''that''' is what matters. We're not going to use double or incorrect names in the wiki, just because a few people use the wrong name on two servers. Anyone on those servers should know the real names by now anyways. They are not "excluded" by using the proper names.
| |
| : The [[Wiki Style Guide]] should be followed for consistency and clarity in all articles. If you have a point of disagreement with it, I'm more than happy to discuss it with you, as long as you can do so without being insulting.
| |
| : Finally, threatening to engage in a revert war with a wiki moderator really isn't a good idea. I'm glad you haven't continued it.

| Yesterday after I reformatted [[Level 81 - 90]], I came across the duplicate orphaned page [[Level 81-90]]. This second page should either be deleted or turned into a redirect to the former. Is there some sort of tag that I should put at the top of the page similar to the fixme/stub tags?
