Fixed Special Pages

It should be working for you now. -- Chaos2651 (talk) 03:42, 8 June 2012 (EDT)

Awesome, thanks, what was up with it? --Joe ST (talk) 03:59, 8 June 2012 (EDT)

Not sure, a PHP variable needed to have more memory basically. Not sure why it worked on the older, crappier host there though. -- Chaos2651 (talk) 04:42, 8 June 2012 (EDT)

Site Being Faster?

Today the wiki and the site is running extremely fast (especially compared to the crap service we've had earlier). Do you agree? -- Chaos2651 (talk) 16:27, 3 June 2012 (EDT)

Its faster now yes, much more usable :D --16:38, 3 June 2012 (EDT)

Weird because actually our resources are being more restricted than before kinda... very odd. -- Chaos2651 (talk) 21:06, 3 June 2012 (EDT)

The speed is intermittent, and I'm still getting some errors, but yeah, its awesome :D --Joe ST (talk) 04:29, 4 June 2012 (EDT)

Administratorship

Thank you for the stellar work you have done on the wiki. I would like to apologise for my own extended absence and to grant you powers as an administrator. Hopefully I will be able to find time in the near future to return to the wiki and assist you. I have sent a message to Chaos2651 requesting ConfirmEdit and ParserFunctions plugins so hopefully the spam issue will soon be resolved. Thank you again for your dedication.--Beligaronia (talk) 22:40, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

Thank you so much :) and indeed I've missed you :D I'll try my best to be all adminy and stuff, but I also may have some downtime soon, with finals coming up and stuff. Thank you :D 22:43, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

Oh, and another good one might be (the official) DPL plugin (or one of the forks if you wish for more functionality) It'd be much better than the lists of characters I've recently been adding to [[{page}/Characters]] and then transcluded where needed, and I'm sure I could find other places for it to be used :D.

CharacterInfobox

Do we want to use the switches instead of the subtemplates? It would seem easier to implement if it isn't server intensive or something like that. Your thoughts?--Beligaronia (talk) 23:57, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

I guess a #switch: for the world though the race|homeland|etc → world translation could be its own template, much like the homeland|race → race one ({{Race}}) might be better. I was actually gonna wait until more consensus/organization happens before doing much more on those, hehehe. I hear ParserFunctions is probably more server intensive than multiple-deep transclude, though I dont know for sure. Joe ST 00:06, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

Stub template

What do you think about the stub template going at the bottom of an article, rather than in the middle. Wikipedia puts it at the bottom and it would cause less disruption to what little information these pages have. Another option would be to put it at the very top, above the text if you're worried it will go unnoticed.--Beligaronia (talk) 22:49, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

I put it under the first bit so that people could easily tell it was a stub, but still be able to read the first bit. At the very top I guess would work, the bottom not so much since it'd be hidden though wp does do that yeah..... Joe ST 09:23, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

Though, I guess if the template is at the bottom and you cannot see it straight away, it's obviously not needed XD Joe ST 12:12, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

Advertising

I assume adding advertising for products isn't wanted on the wiki. I don't know how and don't hink I have the authority to remove this: Effective_Attributes_Of_The_Amazon_Kindle - Jay

Thanks Jay, we do get the occasional spammer. Joe ST

Template:Character

That fixed with the hick up (I am not familiar with the {{#!: function, maybe it is what allows you to avoid the wiki syntax table inside a table problem or it was fixed in on of the mediawiki updates since last time I looked. Btw, why don't you use the standard 'Template:Infobox' form Wikipedia? --Mbg (talk) 18:34, 8 November 2012 (UTC)

The {{#!: function returns everything (including pipes) between its : and }}. Basically because I dont really like the idea of {{!}}. We dont use WP:T:Infobox because I've been incrementally refactoring our version for a while, and I (as the templates maintainer) prefer my own syntax to WP's. --Joe ST (talk) 19:58, 8 November 2012 (UTC)

Do you know what is the issue?
