Comments to Fandyllic Edit

Renew wowwiki pageEdit

Hi Fandyllic! First of all I would like to thank you for your comment. Although it might sound negative I would like to justify as to why your opinion might arrive:

• First of all there is a major change in how talents and spells are fashioned in the current live build
• the wowwiki page, honestly most of the spells and abilities are outdated
• The current boilerplate doesn't fit some of the changes done in-game as to this reference site: i.e. talent can be availed at certain level with three different option. No new template is existing
• Most of the content there are manually update and as of now I don't have the time to do so. If you have spare time kindly join me in updating this page since this would be my 1st move.
• The idea of the content would be entail a renewed format for this page.
  • If there are existing TGC photos include it in the page
  • post any flavored text
  • add an internal link to that specific TGC card within wowwiki pages
  • content are divided in current phase which is what ever existing in game state this spell has and the details
    • include the description of what is currently working and from what patch did it started
    • include any spell modifying talents, specializations, glyphs, tier set bonus and their internal link
  • sub sequent state contains all the previous spell changes that where made on the spell itself, the previous talents affecting it (under the old talent system passive or active), any glyphs, or tier set bonus.
  • change the outdated link to external site i.e. wowhead,mmo-champion database, thotbot with the new current spell id
  • provide any guides from external sources.

THat would be all and I do hope you can help me with this endeavor Vertigo12 (talk) 02:02, September 15, 2012 (UTC)vertigo12

I'd be glad to help. I assume you're talking about [Renew] primarily. I will start helping by updating the {{Infobox ability}} template with things like specific level required. I think |talent_tree= can serve for specialization requirement. Blizzard seems to have made "spec" more analogous to specialization rather than talent tree now anyway, so I may just add support for |specialization=. I also take a look at {{Infobox talent}} which might even need more work.

My main disagreement with the "Present State" vs. "Subsequent State" section organization is that it is too vague. Present state for what? Current patch? Subsequent state for when? Expansion release? If this was more clear, then I wouldn't mind so much.

When writing wiki pages, you have to read it back to yourself as if you were someone who knows very little about the current state of the game. If there is future stuff, you need to be as clear as possible about milestones for that future (or past). Give patch versions or expansions like Patch 5.0.5 or Mists of Pandaria.

Lastly, as a general practice WoWWiki doesn't try to include too much historical info about stuff in order not to confuse readers. If you want to preserve most of the old info on a spell for example, move it to spell (old) and link to it from the spell page. Don't try to preserve all the old info on the main spell page. --Beware the sneaky smile! Fandyllic (talk · contr) 15 Sep 2012 11:56 AM Pacific

Twitch TV Embed Interest?Edit

Hey there Fandyllic,

My name is Jorge and I'm on Wikia's Community Development Program. I actually want to reach out to gauge your wiki's potential interest in embedding some Twitch TV content.

To give some background, Wikia is interested in working with Twitch to get some native embeds for interested wikis. Twitch provides live-streaming of games, from simple lets-plays to massive tournaments and competitive events. Embedding could allows users to easily find streaming content or get together to chat about particular events. If the wiki is interested, you could also have you very own wiki channel/group to stream content to users, make your own show, etc. If might fit well with Pandaria BETA, launch, and Battlgrounds events.

Do you think this is something the WoW wiki community might be interested in? If so, how do you think it would be used? (home-page embed, its standalone page with just links or an actual embed? something else? Producing your own show? Etc.) Either way, let me know your thoughts by leaving a message on my talk page. Also, if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Best, Jorge (profile)•(talk) 18:58, September 24, 2012 (UTC)

I got your message and that's great to here! I'll make note of it, contact Raylan, and keep you informed about Twitch TV progress!

Best, Jorge (profile)•(talk) 15:58, September 25, 2012 (UTC)

Tier 14 Edit

I got them from the WoW Site --RaceLord (talk)

Background Edit

Had to update the background to work with the break that's now between the content area and the wikia bar at the top. Let me know if it works for you. If not, I'll do some more fiddling during the week. Raylan13 (talk) 03:07, October 11, 2012 (UTC)

Yup. Not quite seamless, but a good quick fix. --Beware the sneaky smile! Fandyllic (talk · contr) 10 Oct 2012 7:17 PM Pacific

deletion Edit

Hey, I don't really know where I should ask for this, but could you please delete or deactivate my account and talk-page and all the related pages? Thanks a bunch! T igiarmpr C 05:16, October 16, 2012 (UTC)

I can delete specific pages that no one else has contributed to, but otherwise the answer is no. Please tag the pages you want deleted with {{speedydelete|Author request.}}. Only Wikia can de-acivate an account and they rarely do it. --Beware the sneaky smile! Fandyllic (talk · contr) 16 Oct 2012 6:58 AM Pacific

video conferencing Edit

Just wanted to point you to the ongoing discussion. Pinged you, but won't be back for a few hours. Raylan13 (talk) 23:27, October 25, 2012 (UTC)

Update: Guild:Turus Thalanaar (Wyrmrest Accord US) has been vandalized with additional actionable content;Gwydionbrenn (talk · contr) 10 Nov 2012 12:28 PM Eastern

Reviewed editing history of both the guild page and talk page. See my response here. Raylan13 (talk) 18:09, November 10, 2012 (UTC)

I have requested deletion of my own page; voting should no longer be an issue. Gwydionbrenn (talk · contr) 10 Nov 2012 2:32 PM Eastern

Question about promoting other wikis Edit

Fandyllic? I have a question. Does WoW wiki promote a WoW Fanon/Rp Wiki? Like a smaller wiki that is inside of the wiki?

Thanks - Count the stars - Shao 03:05, November 21, 2012 (UTC)

What specifically do you mean by promoting? We have a Fansites page for links to WoW-related wikis. Is that what you mean? --Beware the sneaky smile! Fandyllic (talk · contr) 21 Nov 2012 4:37 PM Pacific

Like on avatar wiki the site likes all fanon to a wiki for the series' fanons. That way both wiki's are linked. Count the stars - Shao 19:49, November 22, 2012 (UTC)

I guess we don't have a specific page like that, but I'll think about creating one. Right now all we have is Fansites#Lore_and_role_playing, but I'll probably separate Roleplaying from Lore and make a new Fanon and roleplaying section. --Beware the sneaky smile! Fandyllic (talk · contr) 23 Nov 2012 10:34 AM Pacific

I made a new section in Fansites, called Fanon and roleplaying. I really don't want to create a whole separate page for fanons until there are at lease 6 or more to list. --Beware the sneaky smile! Fandyllic (talk · contr) 23 Nov 2012 11:02 AM Pacific

Ok Thanks. I'd take a look at that site because it's pretty well organized and there's a shit-ton of work setting up a portal like that. Count the stars - Shao 15:23, November 24, 2012 (UTC)

SockEdit

Yes, those two are both my profiles. I'm sorry, but I have major indecisiveness when it comes to usernames. How did you come up with such a unique username? If you have any ideas, I would really appreciate it.

I'm sorry for any trouble I have caused. Vadske (talk) 02:10, December 4, 2012 (UTC)

So, are you going to delete my two profiles? Vadske (talk) 02:57, December 4, 2012 (UTC)

It would probably be best to close both accounts; due to my indecisiveness, I may just make a new account (I promise, I won't make two), and nine times out of ten, the next user that is me will be a user with the same description on their userpage (you know: "I've never played a WoW game in my life, etc.").

Patrol logs in recent changes Edit

Hi, I'm from a wiki discussing whether to instal Recent Changes Patrol and had a question I hoped you could answer. I've also left this message on User talk:Raylan13 in case you don't get this for a while.

From what I can see from Special:RecentChanges marking an edit as patrolled does not show up, but does in Special:Log. Is this the same if you are able to mark edits as patrolled, or does the patrol log show up if you have the right?

Thanks, Cåm 18:13, December 5, 2012 (UTC)

See response on Message Wall:Cåm. --Beware the sneaky smile! Fandyllic (talk · contr) 5 Dec 2012 12:22 PM Pacific

Reporting Vandals Edit

I do not seem to be able to add any names to the WoWWiki:Violations page, so I would just like to let you know that Wallisthedoosh has been vandalizing the Server:Illidan US repeatedly by adding Elinks of Call to Arms youtube videos.

Thanks

RyanPT (talk) 06:30, December 8, 2012 (UTC)

External liks Edit

I have noticed a few external links on this realm page Alexstrasza US (PvE) for guilds and such, is that allowed? I seem to remember reading that only two external links were allowed per page.

Thanks

RyanPT (talk) 20:55, December 8, 2012 (UTC)

There is no limit on the number of external links by policy, but only approved sites may have multiple external links to the same site. We're much looser on character, guild, and realm pages as long as the external links are relevant to the character, guild, or realm. --Beware the sneaky smile! Fandyllic (talk · contr) 8 Dec 2012 3:51 PM Pacific

Hello,

My name is Catalin Chivulescu and i want to submit a new World of Warcraft mirror site, the site is ready and launched but i don't have permission to edit the patch_mirror page. Could you tell me what steps should i follow in order to register my website as a mirror on Wowwiki?

Thankyou,

MM101 issues Edit

hey, I am having a bit of a issue regarding User:MM101. This user posted an edit on the Item level page, which contains what appears to be comments on the outdatedness of the article. I asked them to instead post it on the talk page, as they clearly had good input for the page, but I felt it was not an appropriate edit. The user is not satisfied with my explanation and I would appreciate it if you could explain it to him.

Thanks.

RyanPT (talk) 07:24, December 11, 2012 (UTC)

Patch Mirrors Edit

I figured I would bring this to your attention, someone just edited the Patch mirrors page and changed the files for one of the patches. I honestly have no idea what the proper patch mirrors should be so I left it as it is in case the user was making valid contributions.

RyanPT (talk) 18:54, December 12, 2012 (UTC)

• Alright, thanks.

  RyanPT (talk) 19:15, December 12, 2012 (UTC)

Videos Edit

Hey, what is the protocol for adding YouTube videos? Nialinius has been making pages about a few scenarios and adding videos of him doing them. He also added a YouTube video of him completing an achievement on an achievement page.

RyanPT (talk) 23:25, December 12, 2012 (UTC)

That's fine if it is on topic. If the video is advertising something like a pay guide, then it is not okay. --Beware the sneaky smile! Fandyllic (talk · contr) 12 Dec 2012 8:28 PM Pacific

Patch mirrors Edit

Hi,

I talked to you on 10th of December about adding a new website in the patch_mirror. The website is ready but i still don't have permission to edit the page.

Could you check my account if it has the permission to edit that page in order to publish the links?

Thankyou—This unsigned comment is by Catalin.chivulescu90 (talk • contribs) 15:33, December 11, 2012‎. Please sign your posts with ~~~~!

Mount Icons Edit

Hey, before I forget, I just wanted to mention that we currently do not have the mount icon for the Pandaren racial mounts, the Dragon Turtles. I haven't the slightest clue on how to add them in the proper format, or where to get them from. Thanks, RyanPT (talk) 06:23, December 14, 2012 (UTC)

WoW wiki patch Edit

Hello,

I talked to you about permission to edit wow wiki latest patch page.

You suggested me to create a new page and you will edit it. It's no problem i can wait, but my account was made on 10th of december and it's 14 of december.

Could you do the checks? To see what's wrong with my account?

Thankyou —This unsigned comment is by Catalin.chivulescu90 (talk • contribs) 06:17, December 14, 2012‎. Please sign your posts with ~~~~!

I researched it and the "new user" time period is 4 days and not 3. See Project:Autoconfirmed users. So tomorrow you should be able to edit. --Beware the sneaky smile! Fandyllic (talk · contr) 14 Dec 2012 9:00 AM Pacific

Updating Edit

Hey, is there anywhere in particular you would like me to edit/update? I believe I have finished all that I can on the mounts page for now. Thanks. RyanPT (talk) 04:47, December 17, 2012 (UTC)

Miniver Edit

Can you please ban Miniver soon? He has been undoing my edits and replacing them with very suspicious Elinks. It's getting frustrating. Thanks RyanPT (talk) 19:48, December 18, 2012 (UTC)

List of Mining Nodes Edit

Hey, I have been trying to edit the List of mining nodes page, and I keep getting an error telling me that your filters have blocked a Elink. The trouble is that the Elink was already on there, and it is legitimate. Raylan checked it out and moved some stuff around but it still won't let me edit it. What do you think?
