If you have a FFXIclopedia-related request, such as tweaking or creating a template, feel free to post it in this section. You can use the Edit link beside the section title to ensure you are in the right place. Make sure you include as much detail as possible, including a link to the page (or at least the exact page title). I will try to accommodate you as best as I can! --Abbydon 17:31, November 17, 2010 (UTC)

Hi, I'm relatively new at editing Wiki. I added this page: [Duelist's Chapeau +2], but when I begin typing in the search box to look for it, it appears as "Duelist's Chapeau 2" instead of "Duelist's Chapeau +2." What am I doing wrong? Thanks! SharMarali 20:56, December 25, 2011 (UTC)

Hi! I really like the format you used on your NM Hunts page. Mind if I borrow that format for my own pages? --Altheav 14:43, October 21, 2010 (UTC)

• Sure! I haven't updated it in a long time, so it's a bit outdated. It's one of those pages I want to work on soon, including adding in NMs from areas I plan on hunting in. --Abbydon 16:31, October 21, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for taking the time to do all that. I've been neglecting to check those categories for a while. I should be able to get caught up soon. Tahngarthor^{talk-contribs} 17:36, December 14, 2010 (UTC)

• No problem! I love this wiki, so I want it to be uniform and tidy. I enjoy helping out any way I can. Thanks for checking them out! --₪ ABBYDON ₪ t/ c 17:55, December 14, 2010 (UTC)

Next time please do some research. Not only do "Evoker's Attire" and "Summoner's Attire" provide convention for the name, but this is also the name that the armor storer's use. If anything, the ones that don't conform to what the armor storer's use should be changed. --Tarage 10:53, December 24, 2010 (UTC)

Okay seriously? You did this to every armor page, and every one of them is wrong. I don't have time go go around and fix all of them. --Tarage 09:42, December 25, 2010 (UTC)

I completely agree, stop trying to go into every single one of the AF3 pages and change their names and post rude comments about how the pictures should be named according to your naming standards. You don't own this wiki, and all of the prior armor storage slips list all types of armor stored as "attire" so theres absolutely no reason to change ANY of them. Please revert any changes you've made to any of the AF3 pages. --Jaela 07:38, December 27, 2010 (UTC)

• I don't recall leaving "rude" comments anywhere. Nor did I say anything about my naming standards. There are existing Policies. The File Policy has the following notes regarding names:
  • Images of key items should be uploaded with a filename containing only the exact name of the key item and nothing else. (e.g. Silver Sea ferry ticket or Map of the Aqueducts)
  • Images of items should be uploaded with a filename containing only the item or description name and nothing else. (e.g. Stone Arrowheads or Handful of stone arrowheads)
  • Images of NPCs should be uploaded with a filename containing only the exact name of the NPC and nothing else. (e.g. Sagheera or Kaduru-Haiduru)
  • Images of monsters should be uploaded with a filename containing only the mob's name and nothing else. (e.g. Robber Crab or Leaping Lizzy)
• It has other information regarding image policies, such as altered fonts and obstructions, but those are the points regarding names. As far as the move requests, I am replying in the sub-section below. Also, they are not "AF3": they are Empyrean. --₪ ABBYDON ₪ t/ c 21:48, December 28, 2010 (UTC)

I'm not sure I quite see the distinction between AF3 and Empyrean, at least at the moment. By the same reasoning, there's no AF2 either (it's Category:Relic Armor). People still call it AF2 for convenience/by convention, and I think it's reasonable to extend that to calling Empyrean armor AF3 at least in casual discussion.--31415 23:30, December 28, 2010 (UTC)

Can you make a template for Key items, preferably one for Atma/Abyssite and one for other key items? Thanks. --Duzell-Levi 01:49, January 9, 2011 (UTC)

• Sure! I'll work on those today. :) ₪ ABBYDON ₪ t/ c 15:04, January 12, 2011 (UTC)
• I had some other things to take care of, so it took longer than expected. However, it's ready now. It's the same one as always, {{Infobox Key Item}}, but lots of changes have been made. Take a look at the template page for details. ₪ ABBYDON ₪ t/ c 20:37, January 20, 2011 (UTC)

I reversed 2 of your speedy move requests for renaming job gesture key items, but before I do more I think we had better discuss it. Why do you think the naming convention is wrong if that's how the key item is written in-game? According to Naming Conventions "Key item page names should reflect the name of the item as it appears in your key items list". --Wagner17 05:42, January 12, 2011 (UTC)

Key Items appear to be either way. Many of them are exactly as they appear in the Key Items list, but there are also many that follow standard wiki naming (propercase). It is understandable to reverse the requests on those. Proceed with any others you find. --₪ ABBYDON ₪ t/ c 15:03, January 12, 2011 (UTC)

Great work! I can't wait to see the finished product, based solely on the documentation in existence so far. --SimuAndy 20:12, January 26, 2011 (UTC)

• Thanks! I've been using icons in a bunch of templates I've made and am working on, and I had a heck of a time tracking down a bunch of them. So, I decided to make a multi-purpose template that could generate them all for me. lol. I'm working on the sub-templates now and am almost done with it. :) --₪ ABBYDON ₪ t/ c 20:15, January 26, 2011 (UTC)
• And it's done! The template is now ready for use: {{IconEx}}. --₪ ABBYDON ₪ t/ c 20:35, January 26, 2011 (UTC)

So, was I supposed to wait until the Destrier Beret was actually released before I made the page? I vaguely remember hearing something about that a while back. I tried to check out the Prohibited Articles page to verify, but I'm an idiot, so I don't know how this situation would be interpreted. Trying to hold back on making the Prishe Statue article. (>_<)

BTW, I know we have an Item Template for stuff like armor, but the way the stats section is piled up seems sloppy. Is Template:Armor still a proper way to organize those stats? The latter template seems more organized and easier on the eyes. (>_<) --Aerroenu 16:01, April 28, 2011 (UTC)
