You asked how to sign : use the button before the last one in the editor or this code --~ --Tyrcho 11:39, 11 July 2006 (UTC) Thanks i discover the, ~ but your is great also --Cizagna 14:21, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks for the support on my administrator candidacy. Regarding the comment you retracted, I bet you got Tandi and Tavi mixed up... it happens often. :) --TaviRider 18:14, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I saw the TaviRider on top of the modification (i normaly see only the difference between pages) and thought that you modify it... but then i took another look and it was the line of the summary.

Forgetfulness Potion
Well i have corrected most of the forgetfulness potions to the Spell loss potion but what do i do with the items that where use to craft them? Kitten Tails, Stamina belt, Valuable Ring, Iop crusher, Invisible Chafer bone, Magical Cure, Will-o'-the-wisp's Wand, Gobball horn, Gobball War Chief' leather (that has a incorrect thing i will check later), Royal Gobball Leather, Cockleshell, etc..

should i delet any info on the item pages that they where use for making the potion, or should i create a note on the items telling they where use for creating that potion previus to X.XX version? --Cizagna 01:06, 11 August 2006 (UTC)


 * It's somewhat interesting to keep around the historical uses, but we should definitely make sure that every such use is clearly marked to show that it is no longer available, and link to the current way to obtain the potion. If we leave the historical information it will prevent confusion by people who wonder why some objects have no known uses. --TaviRider 02:04, 11 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Although they are interesting as historical records, it was not inteded for them to be kept on the main item page, see User talk:Dashiva for reasons. The recipes will be kept in their original page: Spell Loss Potion.  It is much too confusing to leave them on the items they are right now, unless marked in the least. - MrMunchie 16:09, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Format on User:Rinar page
Thanks, mate. I love the new list. Makes it so much easier to read. Rinar 22:45, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

Report of varius Vandalize
Hope This is where i talk to you but the farmerset,bwork dungeon and various pages have been vandelised by http://dofus.wikia.com/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=216.224.121.141 User:PoundingBlood

Your Suggestions
Thank you for the cronstructive critisms. I have cranked down my Res and agree. I have made adjustments of removing the "Type" line from the Sadida page. I will contiue to improve the wiki in any way that I can. I belive most of my modifications are improvements, but if you feel there is an issue feel free to let me know again.

Ads
Do you think all of www.igsky.com should be blocked from advertising here or are there more specific URLs you'd rather block? Angela talk 02:32, 3 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your reply. I'll ban the whole address. I think it's important that the ads don't upset Dofus wiki editors. Angela talk 06:33, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Wikia:c:dofus Advert 


 * Dofus Kamas Super Store : Buy DoFus Kamas, Fast Delivery 24/7 Online Support, 10000+ Paypal LINKREMOVED

In the Ads by Google on Wikia:c:dofus I have spot this Ads above, that breaks the rules of Dofus on Terms & Condition. Even thought I did not find specific wording, "Kamas" are the game currency (money/cash) and this page is selling that money in exchange for real money making profit with the intelectual property of Amakna Studios owner of the Dofus program if I'm correct... Also it may be apearing in other Wikias as it has other games where it gives the same service. So if it could be remove would be great Thanks! --Cizagna (Talk) 02:21, 3 November 2006 (UTC)


 * I'll reply on the dofus wiki. Angela talk 02:31, 3 November 2006 (UTC)


 * I have review the web page before I answer your question:
 * For a specific URL will be http://www. LINKREMOVED .com/class.php?gameid=25&gamename=DOFUS&state=1 this is the URL more accurate one that affects us more to the Dofus Wikia (if they notice, they could just change the "gameide=25" for another number)
 * For terms of what the page is offering : Is a way to cheat in-game, they offer 2 kind of services one is exchange game money for real money (includes Dofus game) that is considerate a cheating way in various games and second is that they will play with your character and level it for you by just giving them real money (does not include this service for Dofus game at the moment) so then the person that bought this just enjoys the benefits of a higher level character. Both of those services are ban reasons if the player is caught (still have not found a game that permits this conduct). And there is a chance that the deal is a scam/fraud and once they get the real money they will not deliver the electronic money or your account for the second service, so the user can't complain to the game developer company because, player has try to make and illegal benefit and it's not a service provided by game developer company or accepted by them. As they don't provide other thing aside from cheating on MMORPG's I would say ban the whole address.
 * Now putting my self in your point of view (as you have to be careful), what would I require to make this request stronger or more acceptable? Or should I try to obtain something official from the company developer of Dofus?--Cizagna (Talk) 04:44, 3 November 2006 (UTC)


 * I'll ban the whole address. I think it's important that the ads don't upset Dofus wiki editors. Angela talk 06:34, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks for all your help Angela =) --Cizagna (Talk) 21:22, 3 November 2006 (UTC)


 * }


 * I don't know where to publish a policy like this, but I think it should be a fundamental policy that this wiki will not document things that violate the Dofus terms of service. This includes cheats and abuses, scams, kamas for sale, and so on. It should also not link to sites that provide this information. Also forbidden are links to sites that do provide the above information. To enforce this, we should give a user a stern warning for posting cheats, with a 1 month ban for a second offense. Anyone posting advertisements of other sites, like kamas for sale or character auctions, should be an immediate permanent ban. --TaviRider 23:53, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * As we don't have a specific pages where our Rules are arrange or compile for now the best place is Dofus:What the Dofus Wikia is not, as part of my multiple projects on development, is to create one page where our rules should be applied but for now it's best is we use the Dofus:Community Portal page for that sort of stuff. --Cizagna (Talk) 03:44, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

Ranges
I like what you're doing with the set pages, but I'd prefer the 1-10 style of stat ranges, rather than 1~10. In English notation the latter usually means an approximation. --TaviRider 03:34, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
 * The reason I choose the Tilde “~” was because we already using the en dash “-“ (or hyphen) for the negative ones even thought I’m marking it color red, its more easy to differentiate using the tilde, and avoid possible confuse when handling the negative information. As a side note the approximation term it’s apply in mathematics when the number is alone example ~10 would mean "approximately 10". --Cizagna (Talk) 01:17, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

I don't like the new format at all and prefer the older one much better. If you want to introduce a new format, at the least try to make it consistent with the basic Wikipedia format. --61.202.37.250 13:32, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I would love that you could do a more constructive critic and give examples as I'm not that familiar with main page and still exploring it as the information its sometimes disperse in many pages and hard to find. As for why I did it, please read Dofus:Community Portal/Sets, Talk:Treechnid_Set, Talk:Set] and User talk:Cizagna/SetProyect, where different subjects of the total project are develop, and that this has been on process for more than 3 months, with rather no objection. As for now once the link discussion is finish (for some possible bug fixes) I will continue as the community is not against it (or possible change it depends on your answer and possible acknowledgment from the community). --Cizagna (Talk) 02:17, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

About my expermental Template
But if you look, i wanted the template to be simple for the end user to use, like

{ {setBonus } }
 * 2=+whatever
 * 3=+whatever

once i understand thay system, i want to make one { {setItems etc etc } } and though a slightly complex system, itl see whats there and whats not amd display the right suff, and maby if you can parse things(i dun think u can) then itl set - stats red
 * hat=(name)
 * lvl=10
 * stats=(whatever)
 * belt=(name)

and such. But im unable to understand the wikis prmimitivie programng system ><.

And i was bord, i wanted to do something to help a little, so i redid the wabbit set stuff, soet of like what u had been doing.

Promotion
Congratulations! Now that sannse has made me a bureaucrat on this wiki, I was able to finally promote you to admin. Thanks for all your good work here! I suggest you get in touch with the folks at the wikia IRC channel. They seem to always be online, and they're very helpful. It's at chat.freenode.net, in the #wikia channel. --TaviRider 11:04, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much I will keep working like I have do =), i will check the IRC thing for faster feed back on certain things. --Cizagna (Talk) 16:54, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Congratulations indeed. Keep up the good work =) // Peet talk 15:52, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi. Did you make this edit or is someone else changing your text? Angela talk 17:11, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Already answer you in your talk page --Cizagna (Talk) 19:47, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your reply. igsky and gogoer are both now blocked, but there seem to be hundreds of new sites like this appearing every day. It might be better to just warn users about this in project:about since blocking one only seems to make way for a new one. Angela talk 09:31, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Metaria images
I know the images of "Image:Green_triam_metaria.gif" and "Image:Yellow_triam_metaria.gif" were not in correct color, but it is not because I mixed them up, its because they are messed up in the game. The green is actually yellow in the game and yellow is green. I have no idea if the developers intend to fix it as its not something important. For all I know they may have done it intentionally to confuse players. I uploaded the pictures as they appear in the game. - Fogleg 14:16, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Since a week ago the images have been finally corrected in-game so no further modification its require and the change i made stays like that --Cizagna (Talk) 04:07, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Descriptions in Templates
Not sure how to use the user talk, but here goes:

Thanks for answering my query ('why doesn't the description variable work'), and good template. Also, I copied the code directly from the Robber Daggers, so I'm surprised it didn't work. Can you tell me why? -- J-Bizzle talk 18:59, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I will respond you in your user page --Cizagna (Talk) 19:10, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Minotoror
I have been working on the Minotoror page, but I am having a hard time choosing between the two tables I made. Could you give it a look-see when you get a chance? I put both tables on this page Talk:Minotoror, you can respond there or my talk page, either is fine with me. --TM-Dart 00:03, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

F2P Scroll exchange
I went there and there'snt a npc with the exchange option. How i'm i supposed to exchange the gob horns then? I talked to the npc inside alchs shop and the one outside. Review your data.

I've read your talk page. I'll try exchanging some resources then, by using the talk dialog. I apologize in advance if i get to be wrong.
 * Ok I went there and review the NPC his name is "Virgil Onamaz, Scroll Seller" and they have remove the Exchange option it had before when I updated with the varius exchange scrolls for f2p people, I will do the proper adjustments. --Cizagna (Talk) 15:09, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Characteristic scrolls
Please read Talk:Characteristic Scroll --User:Rz
 * Already gave a counter answer on the link above --Cizagna (Talk) 00:46, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Revert of sets
Oh, sorry about that - wasn't aware of the discussion about them. I much prefer a wider than a longer table, as it allows to have a quicker glimpse at the info, but I'm not arguing about that. I hope you like all my other edits and thank you for keeping an eye on all this. --Lirielle 23:00, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
 * yeah I totally understand your point of view, but give a look on the high level sets as you will see there are so many effects thats its already force to a longer table and to harness that we merge those 3 things, about the images after i have give a thought long time ago i finish to agree on dashivas request.
 * Abut your other edits I like them but there are some bugs there must be corrected... the main one is that sometimes you are adding an image that already exist but as there is no rules on how we will display the names thats a thing will resolve later. But with time you will see the rest --Cizagna (Talk) 00:51, 7 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Normally ;) there's a reason for changing a pic. Some were just blurry, but mostly I'm changing pics because they have the weight info included in the pic, which is superfluous and visually debatable. While doing so, I'm standardizing on a background as copied from in-game screen, cropping just below the weight text and above the magnifying glass or other icons, and cropping right and left at the pic box sides. This is done on a 100% Normal display and gives a standard size of 90x67 px. Ideally, the background should be transparented, but this is more work than I would like. The way I'm doing it at the moment is the quickest to get a clean standard-looking image.


 * Prior my sicness my computer crash i was taking pictures directly from the files, as my intention was to give a standart sice to all the pictures with a nice white background, but what i mean is: we have image names Wabbit_hat.jpg, and you add Wabbit_hat.png in any case if you are discarding the jpg file add a delete tag so at least we can keep record on what files are used as the wikia in its special pages does not says that. Also Wikia has a large storage capacity per file so it can store files below 19 megas, the resize can be done by code, as wikia will give that specific resize requested from the page. so basically i was making images of 800x800 around that so it could be resize to 120x120 automatically by just putting some codes to the template giving all items and gears a standard size image that has a nice size as many ppl is use to the 100 or 120 size of the avatar images on most forums.


 * Point taken for the delete marker. I'll try to sort it out for the job done so far. As far as items are concerned the "real" in-game size looks good to me, and it helps keeping the itembox/resourcebox a reasonable size. And great if you can take the pics directly from the files, but not everyone is able to do that :/ --Lirielle 16:05, 7 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Yes I know not every one can get the info directly, its a huge project thats why its taking its time, and there is not much of a hurry as there are other things that needs to be fix first like the standardization of the templates, then the correction and standardization on how the pages look using that templates, as images its a nice visual effect but are not necessary information.--Cizagna (Talk) 16:25, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Administration
I can't exactly tell you what you should focus on for improving your Wikia. But I can't seam to find the rules of the Wikia in a open area, it could be useful if you have some nuances like I've had on The Gaiapedia. Remember that you have an advantage, You appear to have a large base of active users, try finding a area of the site that needs a lot of work, and direct the community towards fixing it. Dantman (Talk) 03:16, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Patrolled
I've added the patrolled edit feature here as you requested. Angela talk 15:31, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much --Cizagna (Talk) 15:32, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Previous Inactivity
I am very glad I chose today to log on, seeing as I have just begun to play DOFUS again. Thank you for messaging me, I will attempt to remain active as much as possible on the Wiki, but I will not be able to make any large edits untill I re-acquaint myself with the game, and the new updates. - MrMunchie

Double Titles
The initiate's Staff (in game name) and The Initiate's Staff are both referring to the same staff and are not forwarding to one another, and both is listed under the Category: Staff. Didn't know where to report it, sorry if this is a wrong place.. --Assos 03:38, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Ok, thanks for the report, I will take care of it shortly --Cizagna (Talk) 03:45, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Project "Xavier Flour recipe"
Hey i was wondering what you needed(like wheat/flower/item wise) for the project, as you can see on my page, i'm high lvl baker/farmer(but not 100 ><). I'm doing this for the wikia >> Masshuku 20:35, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Well when im referring to gathering the items its just making lots of the flours and trying to craft it in the recipe page i made there are already lots of possible combinations i go from the lowest lvl combinations to the highest lvl flour combinations, but as i have dozens of projects for the wikia its hard to keep up with everything and the sometimes free time i have i invest it on playing dofus. So if you want to try you can try doing combinations the rules are simple... xavier+water those are main ingredients, the rest just follows a pattern of levels, from lower level craftable flour to higher level craftable flour if you need i can give you some xaviers flours so you test on those as you are not 100 --Cizagna (Talk) 20:52, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Weaponbox Template
The amended weaponbox template looks good, and I only had to make one small spelling correction. // Peet talk 10:10, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Site Notice
There are two mistakes in the sitenotice - change an to and and on to in. Cheers. // Peet talk 10:10, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Done, Thanks --Cizagna (Talk) 14:09, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Eniripsa/dmg-oriented Builds
I am NOT deleting anything. I am categorizing things. And based on the actual content, "dmg-oriented" is a Team Support build. It is clearly NOT a Solo Combat build. Therefore, I suggest that you NOT confuse the people by misplacing the build. Thank you, --GrauGeist 09:12, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm a little confuse, but ok, unless you are talking of my "redundancy" reduction to the guide that i have not been able to do it, but not deleting from my part only reallocating info to 1 spot instead of 3, but now i dont have the time so if you are doing that for me there is no problem. Aside from that there still not a real built categorization.--Cizagna (Talk) 13:45, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Before it was one big pile with redundant entries (a total mess), so I tried to categorize so it makes a little more sense to the reader. I was confused by your comment, sorry.  --GrauGeist 08:20, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Unblock required for Themonkeymoo
I recieved an email from Themonkeymoo this morning, as he is blocked from editing. You blocked IP address 68.107.142.128, his IP, on the 21st of December, for this change:. He made this change without logging in, thinking it was an error in the transtalion to proper subscripts, and reverted it here after realising his mistake and logging in: (note the edit summary states: reverted mistakenly switched subscripts). Could you please unblock the IP address. Many thanks. //Peet talk 11:09, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I will unban him per your request, just to note that you where the one that added the report in the RFI --Cizagna (Talk) 17:59, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

NPC categories
I know you won't like my editing a template, but I did change the NPC template as the change only affects the categories that are generated by the template. The point is, the template used to have ", that was supposed to generate both and  . This did not work. I changed it to always generate  and, if the area is filled in, to generate both  and  . (I don't see the latter is useful, but it was supposed to be there in the old template. Hope this suits you. --Lirielle 14:27, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
 * That its a little bit more complex that what you think, as what it really affects its the order on how the page is display in the category page.


 * If you put all pages will be alphabetize in the NPC Category


 * If you put all NPC pages that has this extra code will be alphabetize as Pandala in the NPC Category.


 * That way we would have all the NPC's already order by Area in the Category page


 * I was trying to do a complex cross reference but the code simply was not flexible enouft, as i have learn new tricks now maybe i can try to do it again but i want to finish with the weapon template first before jumping to another template.--Cizagna (Talk) 15:31, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Edit: It looks we can't use "/" in categories. The template does generate e.g., and I could create the corresponding page "Category:NPC/Brakmar", but it doesn't list the NPCs... :(. So apparently we should use another category to list NPC by region ("Category:NPC-Brakmar"??), but I'm leaving the templte as it is for now to avoid continuous changes. Also see the discussion on the "NPC" page to know why I'm trying this. --Lirielle 14:37, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Basicly here your idea is to create a separate category for all the NPC/Brakmar, while you could add the NPC category and the Brakmar category and if you need the an NPC list of all Brakmars npc's you coujd just use a dinamic listing and if you need that the all brakmar NPC are group on, of if you want all the brakmars NPCs to apear togueder in the NPC category you use my examples above --Cizagna (Talk) 17:15, 8 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh I see :/. Still got a lot to learn... Thx for the details. Yes, the underlying reason is to get rid of such pages as Brakmar NPCs and use categories. The reordering trick that you describe is good to know, but I don't think it is reasonable to have all NPCs on one page, event sorted by region, because there are simply too many NPCs to display on one page. So I'd rather have the NPC page refer to separate NPC/Amakna, NPC/Astrub... pages. Therefore, I'm leaving the changes as they are unless there are objections. (I'm copying this to the NPC talk page.) --Lirielle 17:33, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I will do the same, as the NPC pages are basically abandon and i want to focus on weapon/item/resource templates first, and im trying to see if we can do some trick to be able to use the dynamic list so the weapon/equipment can be show by level so we can do a more powerful category listing (thats why i still have not implemented the new weapon template), maybe available with dimaiccategory2 but still not sure if we have that available on Wikia--Cizagna (Talk) 17:46, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Image size
I see you've changed to a bigger pic. :(((( I've been precisely trying to do the exact opposite, that is to reduce the size of this pic... I don't object to having bigger size images in separate places like the Monsterpic box, but I'm trying to keep images to a more reasonable size when they are in a complex box like Resourcebox, Itembox, NPC box, etc. You know that such boxes can get long and keeping down the size of pics will help saving screen real-estate and have more info of the box displayed on one screen. Also, I'm trying to more or less standardize the pic sizes to give the wikia a better, consistent look: These sizes where chosen to match most of the existing pics. --Lirielle 17:09, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
 * For item pics, I use a real size (100%) screen dump
 * For monsters, I use the top-left screen graphic, real size
 * For NPCs and other non-combat screens, I use the zoom function of FlashPlayer, step 5
 * I will answer you in your talk page --Cizagna (Talk) 17:15, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I met with Lirielle in game and we talked about the images. Since we are both using the same size which seems to be appropriate for both resource and item templates (especially the second) we thought we might stick with it. There are only some higher level items which have many stats which maybe would require higher images just because the box looks a bit empty without them, but i'm not really sure whether it is the best idea to stray from standard for aesthetic reasons. Also, since we use the default ingame background (and not a landscape like ankama or white background which would for example consume the image of eveil dandelion flower) people will recognize items more easily. We also discussed about the need for maybe higher quailty original files but felt that need unnessecary - nobody will use these images as their wallpapers or for printing and these are afterall meant to convey the real nature of items not to beautify them. So, i'm thinking it would be good idea to stick with the current image schema (used by Lirielle and me) for resources and items.--ilmarine 03:07, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * For now i dont mind, as you told no one really uses and my image project is slow so it does not affect me, the only thing that may affect me is the name as the scheme you and lirielle are following is first letter capital and the rest lower caps with out following the item names, but that is still on the work out so as i obtain the images directly from the dofus files some i dont really know whats the name so the images both of you are putting helps me from time to time, the image size its a future thing its just to be prepare to avoid re-obtaining the image in the future for lets say the image on the template its decided to be 150px so what do you do with all those 100px images, any way will see later, so far you two are doing a great job so keep on --Cizagna (Talk) 03:37, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Ok, the image size aside (i still would prefer the size as it is in game, although larger would be better [well, actually if you zoom into some of them they actually get worse]). I still think that no matter what, for items and resources we should stick to the brownish background as can be seen in game (whether we should use a gradient is an entirely different and, as a matter of fact, unimportant matter). So, my question is - do we really need to get the images from in-game files (I could do that), have them originally as monstrously big and tell wiki to make them smaller on every page? It seems to me that there is actually no reason for it (aside from the fact that, yes, you could see them bigger).
 * Edit: I print-screen my images from game having used the flash function to zoom in (you know, right mouse button menu) so i could actually make the images twice the size (i save all the screenshots in psd-s so they are not lost), but i still dont see why we should present images differently from how they are shown in game.
 * And editedit: As for naming - in reality we should only use the normal latin alphabet, no caps, no spaces, no apostrophes, etc, because this is the standard practice when putting files on the internet. Of course, the name should reflect the image contents, but still i even think the first capital letter is wrong --ilmarine 04:13, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Think it this way, it would give more people access to make work images or for us do more creative template, or that some one designs a skin for our wiki as they have the images. About the background, while the images have a transparent background template cells can be command with  to have a certain background like the one in dofus resolving that issue. About the extra note one of the auto codings im want to implemet is   so the only thing you will have to add is JPG, GIF, PNG or SVG. And as i tested capitalizations do matter as how mediawiki handles the information--Cizagna (Talk) 04:24, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I understand you points and consider them all valid. However, transparent background for images would not work because even IE6 which is considered one of the main browsers doesn't implement it correctly for RGB PNGs (which would be the only way to go if we would like to achieve true transparency). And quality wise, the best option (SVG) is even less implemented. So, as I see it, our only option would be to use large PNGs (obtained from game files) that have a fixed background (I still would suggest that brownish color) and can be resized for individual templates. For me this right now only poses two problems:
 * I wouldn't know the names of half the images I get from files
 * I'm too lazy just to get the images from files (besides, if there are images to begin with, it is later easier to change them because you know if the image is correct) :)
 * As for naming thins - I think you are correct and there are only some instances (the different powders, potions) where a generic image name should be used. Will try to implement.--ilmarine 05:18, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * The upload utility does not support spaces in names (changes them into underscores), so I wonder if it could work like you want it to... And the initial cap thing also comes from the uploader (I've taken to only use lower-case letters in filenames). --Lirielle 10:49, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * As for the size, the zoom is OK when you look at an item in your inventory, but can be tricky in some places (in shops, you need to use full-screen in order to see and capture the item pic). Using the zoom gives 180x134 images in the conditions described. Looks just a bit too much to me. I would suggest to force the image size to 120px wide. In case a wikian does not take as much background as we do around the pic, the aspect ratio won't be the same and the pic will be higher at a width of 120px. So we also need to restrict the height and I suggest to code the template to an image size of 120x80px. --Lirielle 10:49, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * And a very important remark concerning transparent PNGs - if you even look at your own project, the dragon pig page, in IE6 you will see that the background is a different color blue than what you have set. This is because of the almost non-existent support for PNGs that IE has. So, in all honesty, we can kiss transparent PNGs that could be later used for better editing good-bye, and have to use defined backgrounds. This is not nessecarily a bad thing, mind you, because I think if we can agree upon the backgrounds for different types, we will manage (brownish for items/resources, blueish for monsters?).
 * On a different topic. I looked into the dofus swf-s and saw that they have been ordered so nicely that it is a joy to take images from them and I will probably start doing that. There are some glitches with some files that have to be corrected manually but mostly everything is streamlined. So, I think I will make large images (800x800) and after uploading use the image:filename.png|100 tag to display. This way people can see the items in all their glory (all or their zoomed in ugliness, in some cases). My own gut feeling tells me that the actual shape of the item/resource image (and, in fact, also of monster images) should be rectangular. Please give your input. ---ilmarine 12:25, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * If it just easier to get the pics from the files, then ok. The only issue is if one cannot get the same image without going into the swf, which not everybody can do, then we have a problem. IMHO, the images used must be such that any wikian can contribute them. Also they must be the same as in-game (which I suppose they are, but I'm adding this for the record), which is why I do not like images copied from Ankama's Dofus community pages (Encyclopedia). --Lirielle 13:15, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Also, as not-so-technical reason for not using transparent background: Some of the files cannot be opened in a way that you could get the art-work undamaged (open clips/artworks/big/91.swf - the female cra and see what i mean). I have tried to overcome this problem in manyways (using different extractors, swish, importing swf to stage) and the quiver on that picture is always damaged - swf shows fine, but importing damages. So, the only way right now that i can see to take all images as they are is to use Eltima sowftwares Flash decompiler which lets you change the background color of individual sprites, zoom it to the highest possible size (which on my monitor is about 850 or so), take screenshot and save it photoshop. This process seems to be near lossless. As a side note - 800x800 i declared earlier seems to be even too big - 500x500 is enough. --ilmarine 14:19, 12 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Ok this is going to be long and i will try to go by points to avoid mixing my self
 * IE6 its "a" standard but only because it comes installed on every computer but IE7 is already release and Microsoft will force it to be the new standard most probably with "Windows Vista". I keep using IE6 until I saw that Firefox had a function that keep me using IE6 after that i swap immediately. IE6 has no support for SVG files and look Wikipedia its a standard image format.
 * Yes taking the image from the files has a problem and its "whats the name" thats why your image project does not affect me, as it helps me find faster the items, (but i recently found a way to do that ingame using the search in sells room except for "non market selling" items) The background can be manage in the cells looks at my sandbox User:Cizagna/Sandbox already implemented on the weapon template, the "No image" file does not look that good need to find a better version or improve the actual one. But look the last one with the Warning red sign looks great.
 * Naming image files works, already tested with Otof'Mai'We Daggers daggers that had "'" and spaces the utility saves the file internally as "_" but the image name is still work out as with spaces its like normal pages the true address of that file is "Otof%27Mai%27We_Daggers" but the page is "Otof'Mai'We Daggers" if yous see the if you see the info code you will see that im using the on the image. For common names "Crow" i have not tested if the "" are accepted by the upload of wiki but i guess that yes, so that way our problems are also solve for that too.
 * Image size, When you restrict an image size  it takes the first  it does not matter if the height or the width is 100px it takes the one that is bigger and reduce that to 100px so if you have a image 200x100 it will reduce to 100x50 or if you have a 100x200 it will reduce to 50x100. So the problem will rely more on how the user saves his image but that we can inform in the future style pages. Item/Resource images i don't matter if they are 500x500 because those are not heavy design (except for Kaliptus dofus even at 500x500 is hard to distinguish the leafs in side the dofus), battle image from monsters also and can be taken from the files so we have them always looking to one side (preferably to the left) and size can be as same as the other. But yeah art work i would prefer to have them as big as possible as some images have lots of details.
 * Files its beautifully order as its order by type so you have a folder only for daggers and so on, some exceptions like scrolls they have them separate for stat scrolls, pet scrolls, etc. (and as a hint you can see the future images like the new runes i knew of them 2 months prior the update, just did not knew for what the where use).
 * Transparency yes some maybe damage, so those one we could take them in a more picture thing, also pictures we can add them categories to mark which ones does not have transparency to try later to obtain them. I use that program to get the images my problem was that i did not have a powerful image editing and some friend just recently pass me adobe so now i just need to find out where is or how i can make a transparent image and start testing.
 * Community site. Agree on the community site images, i to don't like them that much as they are limited and not all the monsters/items are display community (and its down half of the time when an update comes) is now a more extra confirmation page, its reliable at some point but only that. As the actual position of this Wikia we are some steps ahead, the difference is that its info has a more reliable source.

--Cizagna (Talk) 15:45, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * About point 4: if we standardize on taking eg. 180x134 images and use eg. 120px as a limiter, these pics will be approx. 80 pixels high. If a user then comes with a 180x180 pic (because he cropped the sides), it will be diplayed at 120x120px, ie. 50% higher than the "standard". That's why I advocate for a "120x80px" limiter to keep all images the same height. --Lirielle 16:21, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * But as we are redoing all the images those issues will be corrected by us, also we would create later a policy page for images where it will be define those sort of problems and inform that the image should keep that way--Cizagna (Talk) 16:31, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

braking for easier edits

 * Please check out Gobball, Cawwot and Template_talk:Classbox (also the code there and use of PAGENAME). Now its just a matter of desciding thumb size. Also: IE6 is still at 50-70% userbase range, so it will take at least a year to die down. I don't think it will be a problem if we use images with background color since you can get rid of it easily and with almost no quality loss.--ilmarine 16:50, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Your comment on the Cawwot edit (since original is square you can only specify one measurement) shows that you didn't get my point. I made a page (User:Lirielle/Imagesize) to make it clearer. If you only restrict width, your square file, being narrower, will be less reduced than mine, resulting in the image being taller (see the 4 first rows). To get a better consistency, we should restrict both (the aspect ratio is kept in all cases). --Lirielle 17:38, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Will modify your page so you can see with the background thing --Cizagna(Talk) 17:49, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Edit: Of course the images can be center in horizontal an vertical, so while the background is the same the size will be un notice in those terms --Cizagna (Talk) 17:58, 12 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Nope, aspect ratio is both sides divided by same number - 200x100 becomes 100x50, 200x200 becomes 100x100, 166x126 becomes 83x63. If you want to make a 100x80 image from 200x200 image it gets pressed together. Also, the reason why you never enter the second number is because if you enter one number (lets say width) the other dimension is automatically corrected in the way that the aspect ratio is kept. So, here we should not be actually talking about which size is the thumbnail, but which ratio is original (cawwot.png is 1:1, another option would be 4:3 as the tv aspect ratio - giving images like 100x80). Comments? --ilmarine 17:54, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * BTW! I was actually wrong. The wiki doesn't use both of the numbers. This 100x75px actually produces 75x75 (click on image and select properties). Actually, check out all the properties to see what wiki has done. Since your images can be resized with numbers you provide without breaking aspect ratio, it has done so. But since cawwot's aspect would be broken, it only uses one of the numbers.--ilmarine 18:09, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Saw what you are referring i was looking for some reference and have not found any thing that mentions using that trick with the 100x75px not sure if it takes even the 2 numbers in consideration as what the wiki is looking if for a number that its attack for a "px" so i guess that if you put 75x100px it will take the 100px and make the image 100 pixels--Cizagna (Talk) 19:58, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * So a decisions must be take with the image size in the output, as im already starting to update weapon pages template information and my template is fixed to 100px as lirielle thought of it as optimum and need to know to do the proper adjustments before i have more than 200 pages with that template and have to do "adjustments"--Cizagna (Talk) 04:34, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * For imaze size reduction, see Extended image syntax on Wikipedia. --Lirielle 12:01, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Image size decision?
Yes, I used to advocate for a 100px-wide image. I've implemented a 120x90px size in my last constributions, though, and I'm satisfied with it. So my vote goes for 120x90px (about size reduction, see the reference above). --Lirielle 12:01, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * i quote


 * Size
 * {width}px or {width}x{height}px, scales the image to be no greater than the given width and height, keeping its aspect ratio.


 * So as ilmarine discover it will take the lower aspect ratio of 90px basically --Cizagna (Talk) 15:18, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Since I'm now unblocked, I can contribute :) I still think we should never have to resort to specifying both the sizes for an image, because wiki will still only use one of them in order to keep the aspect ratio. So, in my mind the image code for items/resources/weapons looks like this:
 * PAGENAME.png|120px|PAGENAME
 * This way we can make sure that the images longer side is 120px (and even if some vertically higher images get in, they won't be too high).
 * All in all my propositions for images are:
 * Item/resource/weapon - 4:3 aspect ratio for the original (the best might be maybe 600x450), background #DAD6B8 (same color for the background of the table cell), code looks as above.
 * Monster/pet/whatever (for instance i found those nice images of all the workshops that could be used to create pages for each individual type of workshop) - 1:1 aspect ratio (600x600 or 500x500 maybe), code is PAGENAME.png|200px|PAGENAME, background #ffffff (same color for the background of the table cell).
 * All the rest is a variant of the two thumb sizes, background #ffffff (this of course only is meant for images that use ingame items/objects/symbols that can be gotten straight from the swf resources - for screenshots, maps, etc it's a matter of context).
 * I think this would work. Also, Cizagna, as I stated above, I feel incomfortable about using transparent PNGs for at least a year or so. Backgrounded images won't hurt anybody and we can also avoid the glitches that some images (eg. female cra) get when trying to make them transparent. Comments? --ilmarine 15:44, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * as ilmarine discover it will take the lower aspect ratio of 90px basically . Well no. It makes sure that it fits both sizes. If we have a 360x180 image and a 120x90px restriction, the displayed image will be 120x60, not 180x90. So both dimensions count, and I really don't understand why we couldn't have both. With 'vertical' items such as Woolich braid, a wikian could easily submit a 120x260 image... Well, look at my Imagesize page if you're not convinced.
 * as for the original file size, I really don't care, provided it is bigger than or equal to 120x90. The 180x134 size that I use leaves some margin for a reasonable enlargement of the display size. --Lirielle 19:38, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Ahhh ok sorry i did not understand that, ok now i got your idea, and i have a counter proposal instead of adding 120x90px we could add the 120x120px se your image page i regroup them as the examples was way to long to notice if there where difference, but this way we have the best of the 2 worlds images that have higher height or width will be force to a 120px and images that size 1:1 will be exploit at maximum, what do you think now? viable?--Cizagna (Talk) 20:33, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I agree, code 120x120px seems to be the best way to go. Btw, just to mention it here, using transparent background GIFs is a dead end - no quality to speak of and the transparency has to use some color around the edges to save (so that when you dispaly an image meant for light background on dark, you will see a lightish border around it).--ilmarine 06:36, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Resource and Items format
Since I've been looking at many resource pages lately i would like to offer this as my idea for formatting everything else besides the templatebox:
 * First a small introduction (Evil Dandelon flower is a flower.) - its possible to add here if something is particulary important for something or particulary useless (Apparently this item has no uses.)
 * Then Obtained from or Obtaining (I prefer the first wording because it sounds more correct and goes better with other titles). I usually don't add Dropped by: if the item can only be dropped, but when there are more ways to get it i used:
 * Dropped by:
 * Gobball
 * Exchanged with an NPC at -2,0 for 1 kamas.

Since to me this seems to be the cleanest way to go for resources (and basically also for items), I would like to ask for your approval and help to spread the word about this.--ilmarine 03:24, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Then in case of Hemp flowers and suchlike come the Gathering, Antibot and Locations infos. I differentiate these from obtaining info because this is specific and applies only to a certain profession.
 * Then comes Used in the craft of (the of in the end is why i prefer Obtained from)
 * Then Exchanges (here I would like to add for example the detailed info about scroll exchnages as on the page of Bluish Jelly) and Other uses (or Also used for as on some pages)


 * go to Template:Skelitem and work that out, that its a skeleton template all the will be remove and a clean skeleton can be made then a proper template can be work out, try to cover as much as you can. See also the Template:Skelweapon but edit it, as you will see i started to structure it as i want a clean thing to start. Work it out there as those template i will transform them in style guides later on. And you and Lirielle can work that out as both of you have work out a lot of the item/resource pages. Oh and from that item we will base later on the resource skel template.
 * The "Antibot" category sounds so awful it was make in a rush because that whats part of its purpose but i will change in the future to "Resource Guardian" as that describes in a more ingame term than "Antibot".--Cizagna (Talk) 03:46, 12 January 2007 (UTC)


 * I'm unconfortable playing with this until the templates are improved. So far, Itembox does not include a Description field like the other templates. But Cizagna wouldn't change templates until the weaponbox is finished... :/ --Lirielle 11:03, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Guidelines
Could we add a posting guidelines link to the left menu. This would include the points that a regular user wouldn't think about immediately when he/she posts. For example:
 * Aplhabetizing list
 * Image ratios (if agreed upon)
 * Thumbnail sizes (if agreed upon)
 * Etc

Ideas, comments? --ilmarine 19:26, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * This info can be develop at Dofus:Community Portal/Style Guide
 * Alphabetizing its a natural thing so its no need to mention unless you poiting something specific
 * Image ratios once we finish agreeing
 * Thumbnail its more like a sort of remark that will be noted on the templates explications and features as it will be forced.
 * etc we will see

--Cizagna (Talk) 20:37, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Set Table
Would you mind if I put User:Cizagna/SetProyect on a page titled template:skelset? It would make updating the set pages much eisier. --Scyth02 02:15, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't get how it would be easier as its not a full template the only easy one its the name typing--Cizagna (Talk) 02:29, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Monster Categories
Since I don't know how or am not allowed, I would like to request adding the following categories to the monster subcategory: Moon Island Monsters, Kanniballs, Pirates and Boss Monsters.--ilmarine 15:14, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
 * If you are having one that is "Moon island" you dont need the kaniballs and pirate ones as every thing will be there as a subcategory of monsters. But for now do as you see fit as i have not think that much how to order the monster category properly.
 * How to is adding  and the category will be created automaticly, now you go to the category and add   like in this case "Monsters" and that will be done. Removing a page in a category takes around 1 day to 1 week. --Cizagna (Talk) 15:24, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

NPC template
ok, scratch the info about npc template, i didnt notice your reply. however, please do check out the talk page for template:classbox.--ilmarine 11:00, 16 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh looks like my edit did not go out, with the class box i dont have issue that its implemented its only affects 11 pages, maybe colors on the bars but as the way you put it looks nice check or considerer how will it looks with a horizontal layout like "male/logo/female" or vice verse or the classic one (with the new pictures) or the one you propose, there are options to choose but i leave it for now to your hands --Cizagna (Talk) 19:16, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

I'll put it here also if you missed the line in recent changes - go and check out your sandbox03 (I hope you don't mind me meddling a bit).--ilmarine 03:00, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
 * hey, also another note. first go and check out User_talk:Ilmarine/SWFList and second. since other items (wearables) depend very much on the weapon box becoming a stable release, could you please tell us how usable the current weaponbox is, if it is final or not, and what are the problems, if any.--ilmarine 08:49, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
 * also, could you maybe add the line "belongs in the set " to your weaponbox? i think this would be a good feature to add. --ilmarine 08:56, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Huge list makes me dizzy just to try to read it, but we have to see lirielles comments as its a potential chaotic bomb just waiting to happen, the problem is where we could manage the information in a sort of private way for us, but i thought of a forum but it does not have wiki flexibility. So im stuck with that meanwhile.
 * Well the weaponbox was ready until this request, my problem with IE got corrected (still i did not like the nesting but it had to be done in the necessity of "compatibility"). Now my problem is where could i fit it? also it would have to be big enough to fit "Golden Scarabugly Gear" or "Legendary Crakler Set" currently the longest gears(set) names. Aside from that I was checking all the style possibilities for the skellweapon template that will change to a style page. --Cizagna (Talk) 00:34, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Sets or Gears
I know most if not all players tend to use "Set", but the official name is "Gear" (see User:Lirielle/Itemsets). I suggest that main pages for the sets/gears be labelled according to official names, even if we continue to use "set" everywhere else. Of course, redirects would be created from sets to gears. --Lirielle 12:59, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, they need to be change, but not now, we better finish with the rest and then we have to see this, as renaming a page its not just moving or deleting, its correcting all the links that are pointing to the redirect other way you are still encouraging the wrong name, thats why i waste all my time doing link corrections due to the constant names changes. --Cizagna (Talk) 23:55, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Code generator
Not exactly what the title says, but from my item DB, I'm automatically producing the code for the Temp template, the Resourcebox template, and the Obtaining(craft) section. I just need to copy/paste, edit Damage/Effects/Conditions in Temp, and add the profession Lv. required in the crafting info. This makes editing very quick and makes sure all data are correct, including the official names of the ingredients. If you want a copy, e-mail me. --Lirielle 15:11, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I will answer you on Ilmarine scary talk page --Cizagna (Talk) 17:22, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Bans
Pls. review the bans I've done these days and let me know if they are ok or not (namely the blocking time). --Lirielle 17:56, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Done most of them where fine, little harsh on one as his insult comment was a little indirect but still... about the last one because the multiple vandalize i added a little extra time so he has time to think what he did. --Cizagna (Talk) 14:03, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Forgemaging
Since the introduction of the new system, items with very crazy forged stats are starting to pop up all over the place. I'm already afraid that some of the items may have been updated using the wrong stats somebody has seen in-game without realizing that the item has been forged. In the future, especially if the forging gets fixed, the number of items with craxy stats will be even higher and consequently the number of edits that make the base stats wrong. So, I am proposing that we should implement some sort of a message into the site. Whether it is the main page or whether we should add an alert into the beginning or the end of weapon/item pages, I don't know (we could add it to the template?). But something must be done and, I think, the decision must be made quickly, in order to avoid unnessecary checking and re-checking later on.--ilmarine 12:49, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * There is already a bit of a chat about this here:Dofus:Community_Portal/Forgemaging_Concerns. I generally have been looking for edits to stats that have all (or mostly) new minimums, or to existing items that have well-know ranges from the community site. This doesn't work for relatively new items, but they are probably too rare/expensive to risk mageing. I have already place such a message in the source of Prespic Set. //Peet TM 14:04, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * yeah, and i will add the msg when i change the temp template to weapon box template, i only need time to study bot programing --Cizagna (Talk) 14:07, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Class Builds
Huh... I know we've got so many things to do, but major changes seem to be planned for the 1.17 release in terms of classes that may make some builds compeletely obsolete. It might be a good time (end of the month) to start thinking about a validation procedure for class guides? --Lirielle 13:41, 5 February 2007 (UTC)


 * I'd back this suggestion Lirielle although I can't see any builds being made completely obsolete. Perhaps adding sections into builds affected that suggest how to cope with changes brought about by the 1.17 update and a note at the top of the guide saying that it was written previously to the update and some of the suggested spells have been changed since its original conception? If there was a validation procedure for class guides I think it would be useful to create some sort of standard quality all guides should aim for. At present some guides are poorly written or are written by players who have flaw/limited knowledge of the class they are playing or of the game's mechanics. (I guess guidelines to improve information already exisiting would be in order) - klan.


 * All the Sadida builds using EQ/PW are pointless in current version on test server, for example []. -- Fogleg 10:23, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

Yes as I read the update a few days ago, and thought about this, there is no plan on plan on "validating" I have propose various ideas, other people have propose ideas, but for the lack of comments there has not been any progress, so i have change direction to other things while more comments come.

Now the problem is that guides are subjective as it has been comment a lot of times, so in order to give justice to one guide, one must have experience (true experience not 20 or 50 levels) on the class to do the proper modification, the active people on our wikia its like 5 to 6 people and there are 11 classes, each class with their own variations so that makes it hard to "validate" any given guide in a short while and experience from the user who is editing them. So the best approach for now as we don't have a predetermination system on how to filter the guides its to let them be as they are and people will adjust they see fit until we can find a way to filter them (and the time to do it) as any way this its just a mayor balance update, instead of 8 class focus updates. --Cizagna (Talk) 14:30, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Exchange template
Hi, I'm considering using Template:Exchange on the pages of all individual items and NPCS involved in exchanges. The same template is used in both item and npc pages, the npc field is simply not filled in for npc pages. See User:Lirielle for examples. I think it would contibute to a neater look, but I'd like yours and Peet's opinions before implementing the changes. Consider that, if an item is used in several exchanges, we'll have as many boxes as they are exchanges, but it makes the use of the template easier. --Lirielle 13:17, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
 * There are some issues, as with the clear line also the exchangebox will basically colide with the item/resource box when there is no text or minimal text (well thats the clear for but look the effects on various exchange boxes). here is the example --Cizagna (Talk) 15:23, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Note: im going to blank soon my sandbox03 as i will have to do soon new testings. in case you need to see how it looks follow this link

Re:Custom edit tool
Hola. Es curioso porque a mi no me pasan los problemas que comentas. Te dejo un enlace a lo que hay que poner para que funcione: w:c:es.pokemon:MediaWiki:Common.css, w:c:es.pokemon:MediaWiki:Monobook.js y w:c:es.pokemon:MediaWiki:Edittools. En Firefox funciona perfectamente. En IE ahora me he dado cuenta que realmente no inserta los caracteres a los lados del texto :S, pero intentaré arreglarlo un día de estos... Posiblemente en Firefox te haya fallado porque por algun error de la página no se te haya cargado la hoja de estilos personal, o cualquier otro problema. Vuélvelo a intentar y me comentas. Saludos Ciencia Al Poder Disc


 * El problema está en que MediaWiki:Edittools de esta wiki está vacía. Esta extensión es sólo para usar en todo el sitio, porque lo que hace es que los caracteres que se inserten en MediaWiki:Edittools siguiendo la estructura de w:c:es.pokemon:MediaWiki:Edittools les añade la caja de selección, los estilos y la acción de insertarlos al hacer clic. Tengo pensado mejorarlo para que los usarios puedan agregar fácilmente nuevos caracteres desde su monobook.js, pero ahora no tengo tiempo.

 * Hola! He reescrito el código. Ahora funciona bien en IE y es totalmente personalizable. Puedes encontrar documentación al respecto en w:User:Ciencia Al Poder/CharInsert y al final de la página enlaces a su implementación en WikiDex. Si te interesa, ahí lo tienes :).

NPC template and pics

 * I've starting testing a new npc template: Template:Npc2. This is not a definitive version of course. The main point is that, like the newer Template:Temp and Template:Monsterpic2, it takes the graphic file extension instead of a full filename for the pic. Style is closer to the other main templates (grey border...).
 * Just like monsters, npcs have two possible pics: a full pic as used when you see them on the map, and a waist-cut pic that displays on top of their dialogs. See Aga_Dou.png and Aga_Dou2.png. Only the second one is to be found in the swf files. My preference goes to the "real" full pic, but we tend to use the more elaborate swf files for monsters. So what about npcs? --Lirielle 14:59, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Monsters i wanted to use both pictures but since iliele started to work on that i leave it for now most monsters have their own artwork and looks awesome but some are just recycle pictures (tofu, sick tofu, trow tofus. Various pandas, etc) for example treechnids had the same picture, until amakna they decide to change them. in this case what i proposed was to put a "-A" for artwork and "-B" for battle in the last part of their name (eg: wabbit-A.png) that could apply the same for NPC's, but if you only want to use one, im incline for the battle one (normal how it looks in the map) if you want the art one to be use i dont have a problem also, but many npc's have the same artwork, for example all enus are alike. --Cizagna (Talk) 18:17, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

Unavailable items
Yet another template... But I think it would be useful to flag items that are in fact unavailable to (most) players. Feel free to test and update Template:Unavailable, currently implemented on the Pellet Sling (without reason) and the Lordsoth Daggers (reason: GM item) pages. Be aware that the reason must be one from a fixed list, as it generates a Category tag. --Lirielle 07:28, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I have added Dazzling belt and Kapa Tass with reason for (Only exists on Jiva) - if this is not acceptable please let me know. >< Should the Clint be added?
 * The reason for limiting the implementation of the the template is that it still needs reviewing and any change to the template impacts all the records where it is used. But basically, yes, it should be implemented on all records where it is appropriate. --Lirielle 10:42, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I have to do some changes and constrain the field because if some one wants to vandalize and create a fake category like "because gms are (censored) that dont want to give it" it will create that category, and aside from those category will not be properly categorize for example, also "GM feature" its not the same as "Gm feature/gm feature" and will create separate categories if the same sensitive for normal name pages applies to categories. --Cizagna (Talk) 21:21, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Living Bag
Ahh this is how I reply, its regarding the Living Bag spell. It has been nerfed in the latest update as per changes made. I wasn't the original editor of that page, but have confirmed (sadly) that the information is correct. --82.29.85.191 04:11, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Living bag has not been nerf, what it has been nerf is the sacrier skill Sacrifice, the way living bag is been affect by an indirect way so the note must be in the sacrifice spell page, not in the living bag page.--Cizagna (Talk) 04:17, 15 February 2007 (UTC)


 * It has been nerfed, I am telling you now as I fight it has been nerfed. Living Bag is an entirely different spell for a different class.  This information needs to be shown in one way or another. It clearly says 'Lasts 5 turns'. Go check. --82.29.85.191 04:26, 15 February 2007 (UTC)


 * SPELL -> Living bag: Nb. of turns between two cast = inf. This spells is used to summon call Living Bag
 * SPELL -> Sacrifice : "Nb. of turns between two cast = 5". This spells is used to receive target sacrifice damage it cast by "living bag", "sacriers", some cementery monsters that i dont remember their names, etc.

You are talking of 2 different spells. why because after 5 turns does living bag disappear?, No, and why is that? it's because what it disappears is the bewitchment of SPELL sacrifice that is been CASTED by the living bag SUMMON thats has been summon by the SPELL living bag. --Cizagna (Talk) 05:25, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

I hear what your saying, but after 5 turns the bag will NO LONGER sacrifice ME in the EXACT same way as it did before this update; I double checked the Log Book forum and they was no mentioned of this effecting the normal operation of the Living Bag. I would think that is currently a glitch and they will separate the operation of the Sacrifice spell for the two individual classes. Regardless I still think there should be some mention of it/this problem. --82.29.85.191 05:42, 15 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Then its a bug, what you are editing is the summoning spell page if you want to inform of the bug is different but the spell is infinite and its correct as it is, the sacrifice spell cast by the living bag its bug as it only cast it one time, and i gues you waited till the 6 turn for the recast right?--Cizagna (Talk) 06:04, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Well to be honest I didn't expect a 'Recast' as thats not how it worked before, having just actually tested it, on the 6th turn the bag does indeed 'Recast'. So I guess all in all its only a slight variation in how it worked before. Between the 'Recasts' you will be Vulnerable for at least 1 turn? If so, thats different to before. --82.29.85.191 06:37, 15 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Yeah before it was infinite, but thinking on a sacrier point of view thats horrible because now you will have to pay attention and every 6 turns you will have to invest certain quantity of AP recasting the skill instead of doing a killing attack.--Cizagna (Talk) 06:51, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Not sure how many players would successfully keep their Living Bag alive for that long anyway, as I had to go out of my way to test! LOL --82.29.85.191 06:40, 15 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Yeah i understand your point of view i have 2 enus, one for pp and one for fun but i barely use the 5 turns in rare occasions its out more than 5 turns, basically thats the twist it has now you are expose in 1 turn of course if the bag survives as once you have living shovel one normally will cast living shovel instead of living bag, as living bag its just a 1 time use per battle so you will save it when you are in danger to survive enouft to kill what ever is almost killing you (or chasing). --Cizagna (Talk) 06:51, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Quotes or ?
You may have noticed that I prefer using the standard pairs of three quotes for bolding rather than the internal link way (like this: User talk:Cizagna). I do this not to contradict you or for any selfish reason, but because the brackets, when used at the top of the page, sometimes create a disgraceful blank. Look at your Revision as of 15:36, 14 February 2007 of the Soft Oak Dungeon Key for an example. I left this sample page unpatrolled so you can easily find it back in the Recent Changes. --Lirielle 09:38, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Oh i did not notice that, as i work with Firefox and looks perfect but IE mess it up. Thought the effect that produces its a Sangría in English is known as Normal Indentation. In a way it looks nice when the lead section gets more information but if you still want to change to the other quotes i will change it just let me know. --Cizagna (Talk) 14:33, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Hey
Thanx for the info on a better way of Grinding Large quantities for baker and farmer. But I do have one question. Why is it so difficult to find Bird Meat. I'm trying to make large amounts of Tahde Bread but Bird Meat seems hard to find.
 * I understand its not question for me, but anyway. Bird Meat is hard to find because hunters are not interested selling raw meat. Hunters only get xp by preparing meat so all the meat they get goes into preparing. It might be easier to create your own hunter char then looking for bird meat on sale. Bird meat is available for hunters at level 1 so you can take your new hunter, go into Tofu Corner and pop Tofus. -- Fogleg 10:25, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

In regards to Xavier Bakers Flour
I found some variables you can add that you may have over looked.

Rice Flour (It has no known use) Now this variable just brings in more variables about what it can be used for.

Magical Cereals. Possible, but very expensive.

If it's used as a powder, maybe water is not needed.

Now if water is not needed. Maybe it is made of only flours. Considering adding yeast wouldn't be a smart idea for baby powder.

Maybe we are thinking to much at the rules of Baking. Considering if you look at them, some recipes have exceptions to the rule. Maybe this has quite a bit exceptions.

It may be light. But maybe to make one item with it, it has to be extremely heavy.

The odds are definetly against us.


 * Rice flour was introduce with this new update, magic cereals i did consider them but like you said to expensive, the water is all recipes i don't know of any bread make only with flour (real life speaking), the yeast was part of the initial testings once i tested all possible combinations with yeast i would pass to all possible combinations with "no" yeast, yes maybe we are thinking to much on the rules of the baking but we dont have another choice unless we can get a grip of some sort of solid evidence we are still walking on the dark. My other thought was that its use with an already baked bread to increase flavor (that is done in real life for some breads). But how and how much, that is a pain to know.--Cizagna (Talk) 23:24, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Status on templates
Note: not all of the following is new, but I thought it would help if I drew a comprehensive picture of recent changes to the major templates.
 * Globally:
 * In Itembox3 I've implemented a slight change compared to Temp, that makes "kama" and "pod" to be displayed instead of "kamas" and "pods" when the variable value is "1". Planning to reflect the change on "Temp" as soon as you have tested it and given your go-ahead.


 * Weapons: Suggesting the singular/plural test as above.
 * Items
 * Itembox2 is a variant of Itembox that differs on image handling (takes image file extension as variable instead of full image name) and integrates Description. I have been using for all new edits for some time, considering Itembox as deprecated.
 * Itembox3 is a suggestion of a new template closely based on the Temp layout (slightly narrower). It uses the same variables as Itembox2, but due to the use of your new syntax, moving from Itembox2 to Itembox3 requires to remove initial  in Effects and Conditions. The rest of the transition goes smoothly.


 * Resources: Resources2 is a suggestion of a new template closely based on the Temp layout. Basically, same as Itembox2 but basic info (Level, Price...) moved to left-hand column as they are no Effects and Conditions.
 * NPCs: "NPC2" is a variant of "NPC" that uses the new image handling. It also implements subcategores per region
 * Monsters: "Monsterpic2" is a variant of "Monsterpic" that uses the new image handling.

Deployment Strategy

 * General: As I don't want to neglect patrolling of recent changes, I'm implementing the new templates each time an item page is being changed for any reason, except for weapons as stated below.
 * Weapons. I'm progressively implementing the "Temp" template category by category. Done so far: Scythes, Bows, and Daggers. Now starting on Wands.
 * Items: I have been using Itembox2 for all new edits for some time, considering Itembox as deprecated. New edits will use Itembox3 and I plan to progressively update existing Itembox2 pages to Itembox3.
 * Resources: Planning to use Resourcebox2 for new edits. Considering Resourcebox as deprecated.
 * Monsters: Using Monsterpic2 for new edits. Monsterbox is to be considered as deprecated and to be replaced with Monsterpic2 + Statsbox.
 * NPCs: Using Npc2 for new edits.


 * We need to create a page where we can coordinate all this do you have any names in your mind? "Current work" or something like that so i can create in the proper place...
 * General : I patrol as i have time weekends and Tuesday its are days i cant patrol properly but still trying to keep the moderating work.
 * Weapons : I have been sloppy on this as i drift on other proyects see below
 * Items : As i stated before in one of our multiple conversation with also limarie item box will be homologue with the new weapon template so it will change the difference will be on some fields and the colors. But all the changes you are making are ok as it is already standardizing the format of the page (what the weapon lacks for just a template change). I will check the item3 later as there are some changes that i have been saving for the new weapon template when is finalize.
 * Resource : Same as items.
 * Monsters : im ignoring it until the item section is totally cover (but do moderation functions).
 * NPC : Same as monster
 * Style : As you have seen on my latest edits i have work stuff like the overhaul of the profession page, and adding the navigational template (but isn't complete as i'm stuck) for now only the "profession navigation" has been made but have plans for many other navigational bars, but i'm stuck as i have not get any answer on the Hierarchy in order to develop the sequence of sub hierarchy's from the master one, as its a key element to all modifications that i'm making(like what to put on the new main page). I asked to Kishou also but he may be holding a grudge from our last discussion, but he is good on this stuff would be great to have his help or at least that he reply that he can't. You will see im doing css coding for the skin change that even thought it only appears little modification im currently investing hours testing before i save something.

I modify your comment a little bit giving more structure but did not modify the text, if you are dislike the change you can revert it. About your question see the Translations page you will see the Founders info thats the one you have to request power, if he does not respond in over a week then you can talk with the Wikia staff for sysops power and later on for bureaucrat power but if you don't have contributions to that wikia where they can see you have real interest they will reject the request, also as the wikia is almost dead you can work with out any problem i don't think you will have that much vandal attack.--Cizagna (Talk) 21:25, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Tag
The  is used because Parserfunctions trims the start and end of the statements of whitespace. Using a at the start of the statement forces it to add the line break that comes in between it and the text. This is done because * only creates a list element when it is located at the beginning of a line. Basicly it means that when a value is set, it will create a line break so that the * is at the start of the line after the other, so it ends up like: * 1 Instead of ending up as (if there were no  ): * 1* 2* 3 That's what the difference in output would be if the were removed. As you can see listing only works when the tag is there to add the line break. And you can't do the line breaks outside because you end up with blank lines if you miss values. But with the line breaks inside of the if functions as long as you don't skip the first parameter you never have extra lines messing up how it looks. Dantman (Talk) 22:36, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

Rank Page
Cizagna,I added the 120x120 edit you told me about and got an edit conflict error. I'll try again later tonight to fix it. The first few are actually smaller than that size so I'll let them be. If you want bigger sizes I can make them, transparency is fairy easy on the Brak and some of the Seriane wings but the higher level Bonta and Seriane have those hazes around them so that will be tough to make transparent without it looking odd. I'll give it a shot though. Please let me know on my talk page what sizes you wish to have and I'll try to go that tonight or tomarrow. Thanks for the info. The Crimson Order

Pywikipedia
I don't know the exact root of that error. But I'll start by trying to address some things. console_encoding = 'utf-8'
 * I wouldn't recomend placing pywikipedia inside of the python folder. Mine works fine working out of My Documents/pywikipedia.
 * I don't know how much difference it makes, but I also have this at the end of my user-config.py
 * I don't know why it's not taking family like it should. But try adding -family:dofus to the parameters when you run the login script. Or any other script for that matter.

Now for a big one. That family is going to cause you another error in the future. Wikia has an extra 2 namespaces by default for the forum system. You'll get a glitch if you don't take all the namespaces into account. I know that some do inherit, but I specify them all myself just incase. Here's the one I use for the animepedia (my first was with The Gaiapedia, but we have 3 extra namespaces that you'd half to deal with.) Base your family off this one.

import family
 * 1) -*- coding: utf-8  -*-


 * 1) The Animepedia. (anime.wikia.com)

class Family(family.Family):

 * I found some good python function documentation linked from their website. http://rgruet.free.fr/#QuickRef but you'll need to figure out the basics yourself. But that's only if you're going to do things like making lists (equivilant to most programming language's arrays) or using special functions or regex. Most of the pywikipedia engine just uses calls to the wikipedia.py file or one of the other files. Dantman (Talk) 04:57, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

About F2P monsters page
I'm currently a F2P player and a list of monster which I can encounter was very handy to me. I thought it may also be of a help to somebody so I put it here (that's the idea of this wiki, right?). Deleting a page of a new user is not very good way to create a community - from now on I will probably put all important stuff in other place, where a random user can't just ruin my work because he doesn't agree or understand my intent clearly... You could have put a clarification with your comments on the F2P monsters page, simply deleting it just like that was IMHO worst possible option.

And please at least give me the data back, I spend some time to gather it from different sources. --Milagro 14:49, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Good skin, but this green text is hard to read now.

Dark Chest page
Someone keeps editing the image of the real entrance in the discussion page, further more there is absolutely false info on the front page about the where abouts. If you like i could take you to the dark chest in game so you can see for your self. Until then i would really like if you or someone else with authority here could keep an eye on the Dark chest page (found here : http://dofus.wikia.com/wiki/Dark_Chest) and also fix the false info on the front page. It seems some elitist high level player wants the monster spawn to him/her self, thus diluting what this wikia is about , and thats facts what there doing to the page is just leads to lies upon lies.

Hunting Drops
I was actually able to recieve the larva drops at those levels, and I just tested the scaraleaves and plain boars today (as I just reached level 50 hunter today). --Qazwsxfkly nh 00:02, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

Dragoturkey page
Hey the Dragoturkey is terribly unorganized and very difficult to read so I made a new one where the new breed name is first followed in the same order for each generation after. This is much easier to search through as well. I want to put it up but it breaks alot of the links on the page. Since the links are redirect back to the same page I think we should do it but can you take a look at it before I post it please? It is a big change on a highly used page so I don't want to screw it up. I put the code on my wiki page so you can see what it would look like. Thanks, TheCrimsonOrder

Curious...
How can I become a Sysop? I know a lot about the games ins and outs. I am currently in communication with Ankama about products. I love to correct grammar and spelling on ANY page here. I love to update the links. I like to help people in the Dofus community. So, what does it take? -druja 10:54, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
 * The page you are looking for is Dofus:Requests_for_adminship. //Peet TM 11:31, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Thought if you are requesting Adminship to do that sort of stuff there is no need to be an Admin as those things can be done with out any problem by any user, you can see contributions of User:Fogleg, User:Ethaniel, User:GrauGeist, User:PresqueVu and others, that they are not admins and still contribute in a wonderfully way, and if they involve more in helping maintain the community they are been given rollback power. For you i will recomend you more time and experience in the wiki, and more involvement in the community--Cizagna (Talk) 18:56, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

It's rather long. Could you do a favor to people who post here and archive some please? Thanks //Peet TM 11:31, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

My Template!
Hello Cizagna. On the 16th May 07 i made a new template(well 2). There called "QuickLinks" and "QuickLinks2". These two templates have 8 little links to 8 "important" or "commonly used" pages. I would like it used on the main page so people can quickly and easily get to certian pages. I have no problem with you editing the template, infact i would be honoured if you edited it :D.

I have used wiki for over a year now, tho i have only been a member for...3-5months(short term memory loss) lol. I know its unlikely but im on here everyday and i thought it a good move if i asked for "administrator" rank. I believe i would be a good admin as i am active on the wiki and have a good understanding of the wiki editing. As i have shown(if you look at my template) i have capable skills with the programming side, and im always willing to help others! (Not to mention i have nearly 3years playing dofus( no comments about my lvl, i have a 72 sram, and a 71 eni, and then i did a feca, and lurved it :P so i went with feca, and i spent roughly 1 year on each account!)

Thanks, Oscardog (IGN : --Kiriath--) (RL name : Ashley)

If you could reply by mail( like when i recieved a mail from an admin i clicked a link and it showed me the message) :D
 * I will answer you in your talk page as for personal and security reasons i prefer to keep my email private --Cizagna (Talk) 14:06, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Sure!
Hi and thanks for being so quick to reply. As for helping, i would be overjoyed! I think it would be easier if you sent me another message with strict instructions on what you want me to do... (you mentioned hierarchy)...

I would also love to help on the templates, and help to set-up the in-between links on the "inner" pages (ie class). On a seperate note i think i mentioned before that i would love to be an administrator, but on the message you sent me you didnt mention that. So in the next message could u please lemme know bout admin(and if its a no, could you inform as to why the answer was no, and also tell me what i can do the change your mind.

Could you also reply in the same way you did before?

Thanks, Ashley(oscardog)

Class toc
Hey, i was bored and decided to make a little toc for class(i was really bored) during my lunch hour lol. I wondered if you could at least have a look at it, and give me some feedback, and if there are some "easy to fix" mistakes, could you tell me about em, and then fix either tell me how to fix, or fix yourself?

I have tried to get it to go on the right(where if it was placedit would go) but it just wont go! lol so if you could have a look at that, would be awesome!

That would be most helpful, --Kiriath 12:10, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I guess what you have in mind is a navigation bar like the Profession one? If so, your template seems correct at first sight (haven't looked into the code), but it is not to be used on its own. It should be combined with the nav template. The usage is thus: . Does this answer your question? --Lirielle 12:23, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Dynamically Changing Stubs...
The Stubs on the main page are broken! (well not the stubs) the actual template "stubs" is broken, its not dynamically changing like it should, i had a quick look at it, but couldnt find the source of the problem. IT all seemed to be fine! but its clearly not.

--Kiriath 13:43, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Its because a MediaWiki issue it takes rather the newest one a put them there until the article is remove the stub template --Cizagna (Talk) 13:45, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Ok... can you explain again, didnt quite get it... mediawiki(get that) but whats this "newest version".. and (i dont think you did) but did u say remove the stubs template from the main page? (sorry for being an idiot, and not understanding) --Kiriath 13:50, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
 * No it means that stubs are listed on FIFO basis and that pages remain listed as stubs as long as they include the template.--Lirielle 13:54, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Every time some one puts a stub tag to a page (main page=article page not the home page) it will apear on the list, replacing the oldest one in the list, and will be there for a while until some one removes the tag from one of the displaying pages, or some adds a new stub, also when some one edits a page with that has the stub tag it will refresh and be readded to the list in some cases, as i have not plunder that much as when we get upgraded to the next version of Mediawiki (wikia has 2000 of 2500 wikis already updated we are one of the last ones as we are one of the big wikis they have) the code will be change and maybe that will fix it. --Cizagna (Talk) 14:02, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Monobook.css (bis)
Back to the skin issue ;), what if I want to use the default dofus wikia monobook skin, but simply change the background colours (say for the main box and the toccolours?) --Lirielle 14:19, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
 * in your myskin.css there should be a tag that says toccolours between the {} you can add the parameters you want to change like background, for the codes you can look at here its a wonderful resource for me. Also the following is a conversation i had with sparkla in the irc

 a.new are red links to non-existant pages  a.extiw is an interwiki link  a.external is an external link  a.stub is a stub link (rarely styled differently)  the colon modifiers are behavior pseudoclasses  :visited are links you've clicked recently  :active are links you are in the process of clicking  :hover are links your mouse is over  :link is, I believe, an unvisited link  so for example:  a.new {color:red; text-decoration:none}  a.new:hover {color:blue; text-decoration:underline}  a.new:active {color:green; text-decoration:underline}  a.new:visited {color:yellow; text-decoration:none}  a nonexistant page link would be red, and would be blue and underlined while your mouse was hovering over the link  it would be green while you had the mouse button clicked over it, and would be yellow if you went back to the page <Splarka>. indicates a class, and : indicates an action <Cizagna> ahh got my next questions xD, another one # means the id right? and @ what does it means i see it on the memory-alpha <Splarka> yes, # is id <Splarka> @ is for um... special actions <Splarka> like defining what media the css will affect, or @load-ing another css <Splarka> you shouldn't need to use that much

But when we finaly finish the weapon template, and im a person that likes changes im shifting back to changing the skin... as the complains where little but i partially agree with them, so should we copy the skin of the dofus site and try to shape it to our needs? or do like the w:c:Wakfu where they did minor adjustments to out old skin by implementing certain light pastel versions? --Cizagna (Talk) 14:44, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Image edit war
I somehow entered into edit conflict with User:DOCTORCZ on the minotot gear item pages. He uploaded pics for these items, in some cases overriding perfectly valid existing ones. Since these pics did not have the usual background, I replaced/reverted them. Then he reverted back and I posted a message on his talk page explaining why he should not. Later on tonight, he came back editing the Minotot Sandals pic, this time with the 'correct' background, but with a different aspect ratio. There was no reason whatsoever to change the current pic, so I consider this as a sterile edit war behaviour and I blocked him for 2 hours in order to temporarily protect the pic file. (I wanted to unblock him just after this was done, but it seems I can not do that.) I don't want to enter sterile edit wars and I don't care who posts last provided the edit is an improvement, which wasn't the case (he can copy my file and upload it under his user name if he fancies, I really don't care to be credited.) Tell me if I did wrong and, if so, what I should have done, because I don't want to look like I'm make abusive use of my sysop privileges. --Lirielle 22:33, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
 * DOCTORCZ sent me by e-mail a screenshot where my pic looked ugly. I replied saying that it was obviously a cache issue. I'm sorry that he didn't talk to me instead of replacing the image. Hope this settles it. --Lirielle 07:23, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Glad to read that ^^ --Cizagna (Talk) 14:13, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

revert Larval_Set
Hello, thanks for all your work, but why did you revert my changes to Larval Set, when you aknowledged the healing effect in Talk:Larvaresque Wand yourself?
 * Well its a terminology we use in the wiki, if you notice we use Effects and Damages instead of only Effects like Amakna, that way its easy to distinguish which are effects done by using the weapon (close combat attack) and which are permanent effects. In this case the the healing effect is done to the target of a close combat attack and is already noted in the set page (see to the right above the weapons characteristics) but there is no "8~12 HP (Healing)" in a permanent way like using a healing spell and if what you put was correct that case it would be name as "+8~12 Heal" and would mean that you had a constant healing bonus, hope this clears your answer. Also i will correct the AP as it has been proved to be damage delt not permanent --Cizagna (Talk) 23:50, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Ahh now I see, I didn't noticed the healing dmg at all since I expected it to be next to the AP lose. Thank you for clarifing this, and next time I will take a closer look before changing a page, so I will get it right the first time. Teferi 00:41, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Its ok even i do mistakes ^^ --Cizagna (Talk) 00:48, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

 * I'm desperate! Please advise. --Lirielle 00:53, 18 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Edit: I sort of solved it by playing with the zoom and font size options of the browser until I managed to get to the Skin tab in my view. A quick-n-dirty solution but it worked ;). Back to my messy Monobook now. --Lirielle 00:57, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Thats way awkward, FF2 and IE7 runs it with out no problem, and i can tell you thats the full code of the monobook given by Wikia its on every page... maybe there is an issue with your cache in your computer or something your IE cant process because before i gave it to you i tested in FF, IE6 and 7 and now im using the my skin and is working with out a problem... --Cizagna (Talk) 01:03, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I tried in IE6 and the problem is there. Lirielle 01:26, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
 * mmm the navigation on the left has in between space and the preferences are moved but not the color as your page strange maybe is one of those strange array fixes that are only explorer activated and are not present on "myskin" i will try to investigate it with some staff tomorrow to see what they tell me --Cizagna (Talk) 01:36, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Interface questions
Now that you're bacoming an interace guru ;), I have 2 questions to ask: 1) See Template talk:Prettytable 2) Have you discovered a way to make collapsable lists (you now, with + and - buttons to display/hide subsections). Would be most useful in hierarchical lists (areas, monster categories, etc.). --Lirielle 01:35, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
 * already answer it
 * Sadly that i still have not seen the closest thing is by using tables sytems like the one i use in my user page, or in fact the one im using on the equipment template, well that will enable complex listing arangements other way is by using a wiki table with a class but that will make the full wikitable to hide, and not just by sections
 * --Cizagna (Talk) 02:31, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
 * OK I'll ask the help desk just in case. --Lirielle 02:47, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

My Plans(Areas)
Hello i thought you would just like to take a quick look at my plans for the Areas Page. I have detailed what i plan to do on the discussion page of the Areas page.

Thanks (feel free to give advice, i would like some advice :D)

--Kiriath 09:46, 23 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Hello cizagna. Before i changed any of the links i checked ingame, ingame the dreggon peninsula is just "Dreggon Peninsula"... it has no "The" infront of is :S some of lirilles page names on his geography page are outdated...  So could you revert the page name change as it is(at the moment) wrong...


 * Also Thanks for the go-ahead for sorting the Area's page. I am following yours and Lirelles advice.  I am in the process of making a "skeleton" page.  This page will basically just be layout design with no information.  When the page is ready, if you wouldnt mind, could you look over it?  Anyway when it is ready and checked i will start (from to top) applying the new layout to all the pages so they will all look roughly the same.  I am going to use Lirelles advice(again) where he suggested all the sub-categories.


 * Thanks, If you could reply on my talk page please?
 * Thanks again,

 * I will answer you at your talk page --Cizagna (Talk) 14:11, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

I have made the table on my User:Oscardog/Areas but i want to make the table the amakna brown background(like the images, and background of most pages). I have tried and tried but it just wont "play ball" (do what i want). I try to apply the style etc and it just makes a block of colour, not where i want it!

If you have any spare time, could you have a look for me?

Thanks, heres the link again... User:Oscardog/Areas

--Kiriath 20:29, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
 * you cant use the colors correctly to give the background to the whole page while you are using pretty table
 * Thanks for the reply... is there is NO way in which i can colour some parts of the table? (eg - the Amakna ) so basically it would be great to turn the main parting coloured.
 * Hope its possible, if its not, could you suggest another table to use that may allow colours?
 * Thanks,
 * --Kiriath 07:35, 25 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Hey i felt an urge to make a header for the Areas page(the one im making) and i basically took the main page header and modified it. Could you(whenever you have time) have a look and give me some feedback(or edit if it needs it).

 * I revise around from 60 to 99% of the changes done daily --Cizagna (Talk) 14:13, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Your comments have not change since the ones you made yesterday, Lirielle has already give you some pointers. As a side note: On Wikipedia, an admin is defined as a "trusted user". Nothing more, by your previous request you're in charge of this area project see as you see fit, if we see that there are some issues we will point them out and try to resolve it out by obtaining a consensus with you on how to resolve the issue. Other way if we are doing all the decisions then we will have to set our priorities on this matter and possible will stay as we are currently doing, me and Lirielle working on the item pages, me as the template and style worker, and Peet helping us with vandals and rewordings, and when we have the time we will focus on the maps.
 * last but not least, if you are using the talk page and talking about the same subject use the edit link of that section to keep your comment with the section rather than creating a new section and putting a title that will reference to what you're talking. --Cizagna (Talk) 14:34, 29 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Sorry i put the wrong page link! The new comment is on the User:Oscardog/Areas!(wasn't awake this morning).  Sorry for this mistakes.

I see you have had a look at the amakna page. Would it be ok to go ahead with the rest of the main pages with the same style?

Thanks, --Kiriath 15:29, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Like i (and Lirielle) have said in the past "thats your call not mine" --Cizagna (Talk) 15:33, 30 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh ok i thought i may need "consensus" from my fellow wikians and the "ok" to go ahead from you. I will update them all within the next couple of days.


 * No need active wikians would have seen you working will have already comment, but if there is an issue it will appear once you have start, as those pages are mostly abandon i dont think there will be that big of an issue as its giving new lights to the information of each area, just remember that you have to adapt the old information with your format avoiding removing information that is useful unless you are moving it to a more proper place. --Cizagna (Talk) 15:44, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Sub Pages
As you have probably noticed i have completed the Main Area pages (eg - amakna/astrub). Whenever you get some free time could you have a quick look and drop me some comments on MY TALK page(so i notice it as soon as possible). Now that those pages are complete i would like to move onto the Sub Area Pages( eg - wild canyon, astrub forest). This is a much bigger task as there are alot more pages to update and there is alot of information that needs gathering. I estimate that the update will take me at least 3months. I am currently still at school(for another 6 weeks, then i get a break) and i have exams for the next 3 weeks. Thanks,

--Kiriath 21:36, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Skeleton page/colours etc.
Hey Cizagna, firstly thanks for sorting out the colours on my page. I have started my edits on the skeleton page(for sub areas). I have nearly completed my Header for the Areas page.

Could you have a quick look and tell me what i could do to improve it?

The Pages i would like you to have a look at are below:


 * User:Oscardog/Areas
 * User:Oscardog/HeadingAreas
 * User:Oscardog/SkeleAreaSub

Thanks, --Kiriath 19:48, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the feedback, i have increased the number of resources, NPC's and Monsters to 10. If the number exceeds 10 then they should delete the bullet points and add a new page for the resource/NPC/Monster.
 * As for your comments on the table, i don't quite understand what you mean. Maybe you could modify the table a bit to show me what you dont like? or even better, you could edit the table so it looks better( so how you would like it).
 * Thanks,
 * hope to hear from you soon,
 * --Kiriath 10:07, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
 * mmm i think you are getting the msg wrong i said its too little quantity. --Cizagna (Talk) 13:58, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Well could you please explain what you mean by "too little quantity"? Maybe edit something on the page to help me understand?

Thanks, the links are on my page.. --Kiriath 14:06, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Already answer in the skeleton talk page --Cizagna (Talk) 14:16, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Oh i get it! well thats why i suggest a new page... so IF the number exceeds 10 (like bonta/amakna) then they make a new page. This idea means that the page is not overloaded with links. So say (for example) the NPCs for Amakna... they are well over 10 NPCs. So instead of there being a list of 30-50 NPC's on that page you make a link to a new page. On that page there is a list of all the NPCs in amakna... if you follow the link it helps to understand what im saying :


 * Category:NPC/Amakna

Images
Hey, again, sorry for spamming your page lol i was just wondering if you could give me some information on images.

I have previously uploaded images but Lirielle says they should be the amakna brown background...which is fine. But how do i apply the colour code i have to the picture so it is the right colour?

Thanks, --Kiriath 11:49, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
 * For the color it is above in a conversation i hold with lirielle and ilmarie, how to put the background color that i cant tell you that well --Cizagna (Talk) 13:58, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Talking about images, I'm currently "standardizing" on the following criteria:
 * "amakna brown" background
 * 1:1 aspect ratio (identical width and height)
 * 2-pixel "margin"
 * size between 350x350 and 500x500 pixels
 * Explanation:
 * the amakna brown has been discussed and agreed before ;)
 * 1:1 aspect ratio is to avoid color discrepancies between the picture itself and the surrounding background (from the template), due to png color rendering issues in IE. Note that if all pics had a 1:1 ratio we could as well remove the background ;)
 * 2-pixel margin is to efficiently fit the picture in the placeholder (and give a similar look to all pics)
 * size restrictions are to avoid screen 'overflow' on lower resolutions.
 * Do you think we can agree on this criteria and publish them as "official" guidelines?
 * --Lirielle 09:19, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I always have prefer a fixed size of 500x500px for the possible image resizing bugs, but saw long ago that your images did not keep the same size (but as I'm busy with other stuff i just let it go). Yes we can add them to the guidelines i was going to do it, when i started to work on the policy pages any way. --Cizagna (Talk) 14:36, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I'd have preferred a fixed size too, but the only free swf viewer that I know (and use) doesn't have a continuous zoom, but a stepped zoom, so the sizes available vary for each picture. :/ I wonder what the other wikians (D0CT0RCZ and Oscardog) use. --Lirielle 18:17, 30 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Just to add, i use PAINT!!! lol i think its nice and simple to use, apart from i have to make images fit the fixed white area(i havn't worked out how to decrease the white area that is "default"). --Kiriath 17:02, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Main Page Information bar
Was just wondering if you could enter into the template that says "builds are currently being updated" and "the equipment pages are being updated" and could you just add something like "The Areas page are being updated with a new style, please be patience while the person/persons in charge finish". This would just let people know whats going on.

Thanks, --Kiriath 17:04, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

StatBox Template
How do i use this in a page( eg - my user page). I copied the script from the guildopeida but now im unsure how to use it in a page, could you maybe edit my page so it works?

thanks again, --Kiriath 18:00, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
 * the fact is that this template is a debate for us we dont record character information, guild information, and ethereal weapons, thought for contact information we leave it but only on the user pages--Cizagna (Talk) 18:10, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Well i am only using it on my user page so that should be ok. Did you see what i said above? --Kiriath 18:17, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes and im still finishing the change of the mage --Cizagna (Talk) 18:28, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Miscellaneous
--Lirielle 07:38, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
 * 1) Semantic MediaWiki: Like you, I'm following this on the helpdesk and it's obviously incorrectly installed ATM.
 * 2) Equipmentbox template: Don't know if it's flawed, but it doesn't exactly work as the weaponbox: border is offset and lets the heading lines appear behind it. Also, I'm still convinced that it would be nicer to narrow down the right column to the size of the pic box, even if it makes a few categories wrap to next line (we have plenty of vertical room, anyway.)
 * 3) Images: I've found a way to make 500x500 px images, but it takes a little longer. It will take a few days till I catch you up.
 * 4) Sortable: As you've noticed, it doesn't correctly work with numeric contents (sort is alphabetical). Do you know where this is documented? Is there a way to specify a numeric sort (I tried using the numeric format tag but to no avail.)
 * 5) Search: The new Search function is a pain. Makes *creating* a page sometimes "impossible" (there are worakrounds). Shall I report this to Helpdesk?
 * Yeah thats what i thought.
 * Yes i already informed you of that in your talk page, i will corrected in the CSS (mostly when i will try to change from fixed parameters to CSS parameters for the different skins colors).
 * If you want to continue how you been doing there is not big deal i mean you have uploaded already +500 images with a range from 350 to 500 px. On a side note there is a bug with the Image database in Mediawikia 1.10alpha so pages with ' we cant access them but the files are there, already reported that so will see what tech guys say about it.
 * Wikipedia:Help:Sorting
 * Its been report all around the place around 3 topics in Central wikia forums, in irc and in the inside.wikia.com where is the testing on the new forum+phpbb(or bbphp), so we will have to wait --Cizagna (Talk) 14:32, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Area Bugs
I have had a quick look at the sources of both pages but cannot see why it is making the page "bugged". The two pages are Bonta and Brakmar. They seem to move everything to the middle of the page, this ruins the page.

Hope you can fix it, Thanks, --Kiriath 10:04, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

Adminship
I had a look at the admin pages, and i think i fill all the criteria. I am active, i log in everyday for at least an hour(noemally two hours). I have initative (shown by my areas pages work). I am helpful and co-operative. I am also poilite.

So what do i do now? do you think its worth me standing for adminship?

--Kiriath 16:28, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
 * as per Dofus:Requests for adminship "History on the wikia, of at least 2 months minimum, so we know how you work with others." --Cizagna (Talk) 16:38, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Ah, ok... i must be nearing the 2months, how can i tell how long i been wiking for? (or do i just guess)... if im guessing i'd say 1month 2weeks. --Kiriath 17:01, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
 * By looking at your contributions (top right, beside "log out") the oldest one you have is "2007-05-01T10:19:11 (hist) (diff) Main Page" --Cizagna (Talk) 17:19, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Ohh. well i was close with my guess, so i need 3more weeks(3-4 weeks) then i can apply? do you tink i would gain admin status?and would you have any problems with me being an admin? Thanks --Kiriath 17:58, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
 * As it says, you will require 3 users to support you in a certain period of time other way your request is taken out but you can request again, thought you start with 0 current supports, normally i stay outside that voting as then i have to do another separate voting with the rest of the admins to reach consensus, maybe some one will ask you something so then you will have to answer --Cizagna (Talk) 18:02, 7 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Hmmm so i have started "campaigning" and gathering votes, im guessing this is ok? So if i get three votes from people, and all the admins have no problems with it, i become admin? --Kiriath 18:16, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Users can vote as support or opposed. If you want you can start campaigning but that will show lack of patience because you already doing something that you have not even started (in this case request the adminship and to do so you need the 2 months) the supporting votes is to show your credibility with the community, then it happens the same thing at admin level, then it will be determinate if you get or not. admin status is just some one who takes cares due to vandals (ban vandals and remove illegal content) after that an admin is like you, and can be remove of the charge for miss behaving --Cizagna (Talk) 18:28, 7 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Ok i will remove the voting thing for now, and i understand the things admins get(they also get revert). I can be patient just i like to get on with things ^^ but i can wait.  When i have finished my Area project and have 2months i will request the adminship, until then i will not campaign or anything.  Thanks for the help/guidance --Kiriath 18:31, 7 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Well normal users have "undo" its a little less automatic and when you have more than 1 edit thats when it can be a pain, but i dont use all the time revert, sometimes i use undo, so i can put an explanation on why im reverting, if you show interest on reverting vandals and stuff like that you can start doing so, and if we see that you are doing a good job on helping, we may give you rollbackpower (its a revert power) --Cizagna (Talk) 18:40, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Oh cool, i think presqueVu or something has just the revert power. So if i can gain that i s'pose thats a step towards Adminship. The main reason for getting adminship is the ban power, i see quite frequently people vandalizing pages(eg - the sram page) and all i can do is change the edit back, but often the admins dont notice that its been deleted and the rule breaker doesnt get banned. As you can probably tell i dispise rule breakers as it ruins the wiki. Also i like helping, and if im given adminship its like a "special" title, and people would know im an admin so they are alot more likely to come ask me questions, if i keep my normal account then i doubt i will be able to give advice, and less people will come ask me things. --Kiriath 19:57, 7 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Banning is a last resort option (and even that is temporal, remember many people use dinamic IP so why you ban some one he can get a new IP in a couple of days and you will affect other person), normally i let the first days to pass vandalize Peet and Lirielle + Fogleg or Presque vu get those vandals i patrol all the un-patrolled edits later so i get vandals sooner or later depending their damage its the ban, non critical pages i ignore them just revert the vandal and go to next, basically the more people are maintaining the wiki to possible vandals the less is require to ban a person unless he/she becomes stuburn --Cizagna (Talk) 20:02, 7 June 2007 (UTC)


 * True i see logic in your actions. Are any of the current admins english/ or live in england? --Kiriath 20:11, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I do not know --Cizagna (Talk) 20:12, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

oh, ok lol. Well if there was no-one from england/or who is english then thats another reason for adminship. As is DOFUS has a large english population there should be an english admin? well i think there should be. --Kiriath 20:20, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
 * as i repeat its a community and admin community consensus. Of the actual active admins, that speak english is Lirielle and Peet from where they are i dont know, i just work on templates moving and arranging, and maintained the wiki so the others can focus in improving the wiki rather than been busy handling all the issues, rules and all the other stuff and both of the just correct me if i have wrong spelling in the articles. --Cizagna (Talk) 20:33, 7 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Yeh i understand about the consensus and stuff. I think Lirielle is from america(the way he spells certain words are american). Peet... hmm im unsure of him, maybe european? well anyway it doesn't matter thanks for all your help, i'll keep you updated on the Area Pages and will maybe ask you on how to properly request adminship in around 3 weeks! Thanks again --Kiriath 20:41, 7 June 2007 (UTC)


 * For the record, I'm from the UK. I've added a little map to my userpage showing where. Although I'm English, I tend to spell things the American way, as it is American English used in the programming languages I use (color, center, etc). //Peet TM 09:08, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

Pandala
I have noticed that we dont have "Water pandala"..."Air Pandala"..."Fire Pandala" and "Earth Pandala". None of these are listed on the Areas pages!

if you look on dofus(ingame) then water pandala is a "main area" (like Astrub). So instead of putting Akwadala under Pandala make a Water Pandala a "main category" and put Akwadala as a sub-category. (this would be the same for all the other pandalas)

I think im right... :P
 * Yup you are but not in a full context, there is not such thing as "pandala" in the first stages of the island it was call "pandala" to the neutral potion, what is real is the "Pandala Island" and if you pay close attention, "Wabbit Island" and "Moon Island" has the same problem --Cizagna (Talk) 14:51, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Not even "Pandala Island" exists from a technical point of view. Of course, it makes sense to add it as we are used to name it. As for your comments, Oscardog, you're right, but at the same time you were in charge of that page so blame on you :p. Notice that they are all listed on User:Lirielle/Geography ;).
 * As you didn't chose a hierarchical view but a tabular view of the areas, based on Ankama's area/subarea categorization, I'd suggest that you simply add all the missing pandala parts as you say, and leave out Pandala Island from this table. --Lirielle 18:15, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

Vandalism
So the link you gave me, i go to that page and report any vandalism etc so you can find the information easily?

--Kiriath 15:17, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
 * yes, as soon as i see it i will check. --Cizagna (Talk) 15:20, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

Reverted?
Hmm.. dont see why it was reverted, was total rubbish... chafer foots have nothing to do with teenagemutant ninja turtles!

--Kiriath 16:06, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Its a talk page, not an article page. Clean up does not goes in the same way, every one must respect other peoples comments, if the comments is full of insults then yes a deletion may be possible, other way it should stay --Cizagna (Talk) 16:09, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

User talk pages
Can you see to that? (diff) (hist). . ! User talk:Ren108‎; 22:31. . (-787) . . Ren108 (Talk | contribs | block) (Redirecting to wikia:User talk:Ren108) (diff) (hist). . m User talk:Ren108‎; 22:29. . (+154) . . Lirielle (Talk | contribs | block) Thx --Lirielle 23:12, 9 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I dont see whats wrong, he is implying that if you want to reach him you have to do it trough the wiki central. Like my signature its work out that way so when i talk something in other wikis i always get a response here at the dofus wikia, this was very useful during the period the user messages across wikis was disable so you only knew that you got a msg by actually browsing that wiki, also it's practice by staff members User:Rieke Hain, User:GHe (he's not a staff member, but something to central wikia), User:Angela and User:Sannse have a more elegant way. And its his user talk page, he can do what he wants while he does not violate any of our main rule/ethics (swearing, making his guild list here, ethereal or putting information totally non dofus related --Cizagna (Talk) 02:02, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Could you explain..
Ren108 (who im sure is doing things right) is adding things like "en:bla bla"... "de:bla bla". Whats it do because it doesnt seem to appear on the pages... is it something to do with languages?

Thanks, --Kiriath 14:36, 10 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I think Peet already answered this. What it does is to create links to the equivalent Dofus wikia pages in other languages. Look at the bottom of the left column, you'll see a "Deutsch" link appear. --Lirielle 14:44, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Beta Testing
I would love to try out the new monobook skin. I love the current one so would also like to try the new one.

Hope i can try it

--Kiriath 20:43, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Ok i will let experiment it, but not sure if you can be a beta tester, you jumped in conclusions right a way with out reading the rest of information im questioning, as this is on its initial stages any bug you want to report hold it as it may be resolve when i start actually testing the skin, if you dont want to see it any more the skin you will have to remove all the content of your personal monobook.css file --Cizagna (Talk) 21:17, 10 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Hmmm... Well on first looks its nice! newyz enough of the compliments, if i find any bugs... i'll do what you said and "keep hold of them". What did you mean by "Jumped to conclusions?" i read ALOT of the pages that you had previously posted on regarding the new skin.  So i have read quite a bit :D.  Thanks, cool skin. good luck. And thanks again --Kiriath 21:36, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Beta tester is some one in this case who i will keep more updated with the skin information by leaving a msg every time i have make a change, and i will expect more detailed feedback from them.
 * Also if you know how wiki works, every thing is open to every one, how much is open depends on how is stated on the page, in this page i have never stated that its limited. So there are actualy at least 2 pick options, and 9 questions in that page --Cizagna (Talk) 21:48, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

jello back
nice you found me and hi ^^ --Babalu 22:18, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

New Skin...
Just wondering, when are we allowed to suggest changes/report bugs for the skin im currently testing? Thanks, --Kiriath 07:39, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Suggestions any time (if your suggestion is about an old color, then its no use, your version is 54 edits different from the one i currently have) as what is CSS is fun and easy to edit because it gets overwrite easily what i mean if in line 1 there is a specific command stating color white for the background, and in like 2 there is the same command but instead of white it says black it will follow the most recent command in this case black, the code i added to your monobook is raw (as i have say before) code from the main css file, so its like reverting to default skin and on top of that I'm rewriting the new code. So it wasn't ready when you asked for it, its still not ready for beta testing, is not ready for a bug report that i may correct, but is open to suggestion according to the images i posted --Cizagna (Talk) 02:03, 15 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Hmm, so how can i update my CSS style? Is there a page link you can give me so i can update mine? Also as a suggestion (you may of sorted it on the newer versions) but on the "discussion" "article" etc there are little white blocks which dont look particuarly good. Thanks. --Kiriath 09:53, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
