Any more commentary or last minute changes? I want to put this into effect. As for the speedy delete template, I was considering {{sdelete}} or {{speedy}}. Any preference? --User:Charitwo/Sig 17:51, 28 June 2007 (CDT)

I've updated the templates, feel free to update FFXIclopedia:Guide to Deletion when you get a chance. --User:Charitwo/Sig 11:36, 29 June 2007 (CDT)

Also, I've no time to do it now, but after work I will go through and change all the obsolete templates to {{Delete}} or {{Move}} so they can be deleted.

Special:Contributions/Factionrider Started an edit war, the talk page clearly outlines the 10% delay for Dual Wield I, yet he continues to revert the change. --User:Charitwo/Sig 12:50, 21 July 2007 (CDT)

Not that he's done anything yet, but per this:

Going to keep an eye out. --User:Charitwo/Sig 09:06, 1 July 2007 (CDT)

Special:Contributions/BlueberrykushOfCaitsith He's at it again, made an unwarranted change to cover when there is specific debate on the talk page and complete re-wrote another user's strategy on a Shattering Stars subpage. I also recall him blanking the main page and screwing with it on one of the other language wikis. I don't think he learned his lesson from the first time you blocked him. --User:Charitwo/Sig 10:37, 29 July 2007 (CDT)

They were not really links, they were added in like category without the : in front of it and it didn't do anything to the article anyway. I did suggest some sort of template table to be made sometime to cross link other language pages once the new site is built up. I was thinking of some sort of table that will span across the bottom of the pages. I'm no good at creating tables though so I am hoping someone will pickup the project. --Wayka †Talk† 08:49, 4 July 2007 (CDT)

What's the point of having both? Relic Weapon and Relic Weapons both redirect to the category, searching for Relic Weapon will be covered by the latter redirect. --User:Charitwo/Sig 13:17, 4 July 2007 (CDT)

That's very odd, it used to be able to do that. I'll keep that in mind. --User:Charitwo/Sig 13:19, 4 July 2007 (CDT)

Techno just uploaded that like 5 minutes ago. --User:Charitwo/Sig 11:21, 5 July 2007 (CDT)

Project Abandoned? Many broken links and construction tag in-place since Nov 06. --User:Charitwo/Sig 19:39, 5 July 2007 (CDT)

Any idea to fix the spacing issue? A similar collage of images is at Final Fantasy XI 5th Anniversary Fan Event for reference. --User:Charitwo/Sig 08:19, 6 July 2007 (CDT)

To be honest ... I think this one ought to be left alone as an outside link, rather than trying to duplicate it in the wiki. --User:Mierin/Sig 08:20, 6 July 2007 (CDT)

I was split on how much we could/would mirror. But at the very least I think a page explaining that SE has this guide with a link to it might be nice. --GAHOO t/ c 08:22, 6 July 2007 (CDT)

MediaWiki:Site_Notice doesn't really serve a purpose does it? --User:Charitwo/Sig 11:25, 9 July 2007 (CDT)

It's what's in my modified version of the Item Template, one without all the invisible text and such clutter. It's what I've used, and seen used for most, if not all pages I've formatted. It redirects to the category anyway, so not like it matters. --User:Charitwo/Sig 08:31, 11 July 2007 (CDT)

Was just wondering, thanks. --User:Charitwo/Sig 11:01, 11 July 2007 (CDT)

Please check your messages on IRC. I'd much prefer to keep the current discussion private. --TtOaXrIuCTC 11:27, 12 July 2007 (CDT)

Perhaps we could make templates for each quest section (San d'Oria, Bastok, Windurst, etc). This would make for far less digging around, because editing that page is going to become VERY long and VERY annoying when it gets all 500+ quests listed. Perhaps now would be a good time to stop that from happening before its too late :) --TtOaXrIuCTC 14:55, 12 July 2007 (CDT)

Why did you revert that? The entire armor set enhances the effect, listing individual pieces of it isn't necessary. --User:Charitwo/Sig 21:27, 12 July 2007 (CDT)

I brought it up with Gani, he said to leave a link to it on his talk page so he can read up on it when he gets back. Thought you might have some interest too. User talk:Ganiman#Oversight --User:Charitwo/Sig 23:08, 12 July 2007 (CDT)

Is it ok to create templates for use in a discussion? I'm working on creating a "Guild Points Value" template for use on item pages and it'd be nice to have the template up and working before suggesting it on the Item Template page. I don't know what the policy is on these sorts of things, so I thought I'd better ask before creating it. ~ Karuberu 17:35, 13 July 2007 (CDT)

I just translated the Templates Delete and SDelete into german as well as the Category:Articles for Deletion, 'cause I created accidentally a duplicate of a translated page. I named the german category "Zu löschende Artikel" - can you have a look at it and delete the article quoted there?--Calvagh 07:34, 15 July 2007 (CDT)

I made a table for the How to Obtain section on Salvage Armor. I put it on the Ares' set. i.e. Ares's Mask Just wanted to get your input on it before I put it on the rest of the pages. Seemed like a table would fit more with the Item Template as opposed to the line of text or list depending on the page. --Terin  ( my talk /  my contributions) 17:05, 17 July 2007 (CDT)

Morning, Gahoo. Is there any way you can remove the anti-bot sum field for us patrollers? It's not a big problem, but it does get a little tedious when adding the new user template to people's talk pages. If no, no worries. Have a good day. ^^ --TECHNO-- Talk / Contrib 09:17, 18 July 2007 (CDT)

In case you hadn't noticed, I knocked that out the other day if you wanna take care of those extra categories now. --User:Charitwo/Sig 19:28, 21 July 2007 (CDT)

Also, while I was at it, I went ahead and created a new Category:Political Geography and changed everything that linked to the lowercase Category:Political geography version to the new one. --User:Charitwo/Sig 20:37, 21 July 2007 (CDT)

I asked Chrisjander first, he said to clean it up per his edit on the user's talk page. But I do agree now. --User:Charitwo/Sig 19:10, 23 July 2007 (CDT)

A lot of articles I come across, it seems random, but a lot have category inclusion on the bottom of the page, with youtube code or other see also links at the bottom, it would probably be a good idea to document somewhere that the standard for categories is at the top of the page(other than in the templates). --User:Charitwo/Sig 19:24, 23 July 2007 (CDT)

Please see MediaWiki talk:Talkpagetext at your conveinence. --User:Charitwo/Sig 17:57, 24 July 2007 (CDT)

So is this in full implementation yet? I used it on a few pages the other day and it seems to work ok. If so, is it ok for the Item Template and relevant pages to be updated accordingly? --User:Charitwo/Sig 09:50, 29 July 2007 (CDT)

It looks great in my opinion. A few errors but nothing that can't be added very quickly... Did you do it some automated way or all by hand?

Also..I noticed on the items "fr:Adargas" and "fr:Adargas noirs" on the french wiki. Both of the items refer to Guarding Skill(unless I'm mistaken.) but both have different statistics.
I feel that "garde" is more correct if a category for guarding was made because defense is used as a player's DEF....What should be done in this case? --Cactuar 11:30, 31 July 2007 (CDT)

Nynaeve is being problematic again, she is making passive-aggressive attacks on Roger (see his talk pages, as well as the newly created talk pages for her guide and Chrisjander's talk page). Can you remedy this? Thanks --Aurikasura 20:32, 5 August 2007 (CDT)

The problem here is that you are butting your nose in where it doesn't belong again. If Roger wants to complain about me, he can, why do you insist of persecuting me months later dear? I can create talk pages for my Guide - It is my guide after all. And everything I stated on those pages was simply me trying to get across a point that was made many, many times already. I even used quotes and links to prove said point.

Gahoo, if you have a problem with me and wish me to tone it down than fine, but really - this is ridiculous. I didn't want to bring the guide back in the first place and can just as easily wipe it clean again if he is going to point out every time I monitor my own guide. I have no problem with Roger and my tone in itself is a lot better than some other well known editors. I am nothing compared to them so please refrain from YOUR comments against me and stop pointing fingers. Thank you love! <3 --User:Nynaeve/Sig 20:42, 5 August 2007 (CDT)

I haven't had the chance to test this personally, as my digging bird has both Bore and Burrow. Ayrlie was able to confirm for me that the digging results are the opposite of everywhere else; see the discussion between our talk pages for the full details. I have a hard time believing it as well without seeing the proof in front of me, but there you have it.

I probably won't have my own bird to do the testing personally for at least another month. When I do, I'm probably going to double-check some of the items I'm not convinced about. --Tinuvael 13:05, 8 August 2007 (CDT)

Forgive me, I misread. You were correcting back to what it was after someone else edited it. I guess I'll try to read more closely next time. Please disregard. /blush --Tinuvael 13:18, 8 August 2007 (CDT)
