Umm... I'm wondering why this wiki doesn't have some parser functions? such as if.

Is it disabled or something? If this is a wiki from mediawiki, I'm sure I'm using the right coding, but instead of being hidden like a code should, it just displays as text on the page.

Edit: It seems this version of mediwiki is too old and doesn't come with it. Here's the page that tells how to install it: link Sylmeria 14:49, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

Also, I've added this template, if you wouldn't mind checking the candidates for deletion category once in a while to delete any duplicated files (a lot of images are in .jpg, and you can't update them with another format, just create a new file). I'm not sure what exactly are the policies here about deletion, so sorry if you'd rather keep them/not have the template, but I don't think its any good to keep unused files all around.

I see... What you can do with a template gets very limited without those, hope he updates it soon.

Well, a lot of them are very bad jpg quality images (and personally, I see a lot of image degradation, considering how the original could have been, anyways, you can see the artifacts in many of them, while you can save jpg in a fairly decent quality, many of them definitely aren't), and personally, if I'm to put better ones (which I want to), I'll do so in png, so that will have them be separated/duplicated. For the monster ones and so on specially, since jpg doesn't have transparency.

I'm sorry if this sounds rude or anything, its definitely not the intention, but I really don't see why/don't want to leave quality behind, and jpg is terrible to preserving the image.

Sorry for bothering you again, but could you add a minor thing in the css?

Just a .table { background:none }

Tables with no specification have a white background, you must specify it to be blank, and invisible tables are useful for some things, and its better if they are kept simpler. [and you can just specify a background for them normally if you want to, which will override the none]

As an example of what you can do, on the monster table, you could put the drops side by side to occupy the entire space instead of a big list using a blank table. --Sylmeria 23:20, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

I don't mind going over all the troube of making them again. And for the npc location ones and similars, I don't think it matter which character is in it, or it could even have none, but yeah, I noticed the headgear ones had a specific look, I'd only apply a filter to it or try to take an identical one, don't worry.

Ahh... Thought you could do at least that. Well, I'll save you the trouble and ask him directly next time. --Sylmeria 07:39, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

And what would these areas be? If I might suggest, a "to-do-list" for the wiki would be awesome.

I've passed the custom gear template that was in someone's user page to a normal template page here and also made some modifications. I'd like to know what you think before putting it into the real pages. I'll change the card one to the same layout if you like it.

There's a small fix that should be done on the help page [I can't edit it, by the way, if we are now locked onto registered members, there's not much point in having those kind of pages protected, is there?]

The following:

"If you are new to the wiki, consider creating an account. That way you will be credited for your contributions and other members can contact you through your talk page. "

Should be updated to how it really is now.
