Ok, I'm in Trello... now what?
Also, is the TS down? I get error every time I try to log in.
I'm Mountain Time USA, weekdays (except tuesday) after about 6pm. Weekends whenever.
I'm available via that TS, Skype, here, email chat, whatever.
Yeah, I've wondered about that as well... whether to capitolize everything, or have it like in game (which seems to be inconsistent as well)
So I've been using the browser one too, just to make sure (like you are) that we aren't making duplicate pages that need to be cross referenced and whatnot later.
8Squared is already huge and we've gone that way with it - having a list of smaller areas on the main page.
I see that, looks like a good way to go.
I guess I haven't messed with things other than writing pages, so I've not seen any issues regarding messing with tables and other things. Though I've had no issues using the browser editor, but than again, I'm not doing anything that complex... yet.
Is that a problem with how this Wiki works? I know that there will eventually be a lot more quests in each zone (especially the bigger ones - 8Squared, BugWorld) as well as notable NPCs and having monster entries for these zones may yield the same issues.
If it is going to be a large issue with looking at a zone page and having it freeze out because of the massive data comiled on it, then maybe we need to ust have links on the zones main page to each area, and then the quests and NPCs...
Not sure the best way to handle it. It might be annoying to have to flip back and forth, but also be annoying if the page doesn't work because of the lag with all the data.
I suppose if we keep them seperate then perhaps change the "Lambda Mall" to "Lambda Mall Concorse" or is that too much? I'm not sure it is necessary to do that, I think people get that LM is the equivalent to LM Concorse.
I'm torn on keeping them seperate and making them inclusinve. Perhaps we have to wait and see how much more those areas get fleshed out on whether to make them their own page. I think that Bad Sector is going to have a section that will be "PvP on" so it might be different enough from the rest of LM to warrant keeping it seperate. Whatever the fate of Latern District, it might be worth making that a sub page of LM.
!Xabbu's Apartment is also under the LM heading (portal wise) and since it is mostly just included in parts of LM, I think it could probably just be placed inside LM without losing too much of the function.
Though USpace and ClanSpace should be their own entries (which they are currently?) due to the complexity that each of those areas is going to entail.
Well Luna (I think) reworded some of the descriptions by interpreting what was meant so I went and did the same for the rest of them. Going forward I'll put as much of the original text as is seen, and fill in the blanks as best as I can.
Full release is probably going to see these quests go away/change, so it's probably only really helpful for EA anyway... but we'll see.
It's that when you click the link in categories it brings up a category page. Which is different that the page of the same name.
They are two different links with a different purpose. When I clicked on the category link it gave me a page that didn't have anything on it. (Which most of the category pages have nothing but the pages they are linked to)
Just my misunderstanding on what the category page does.
Nevermind, Category pages are different than the other pages...
Don't mind me, I'm learning this wiki thing as I go.
I'm trying to make the category USpace to connect quests to that zone. The problem I'm having is that it doesn't properly link to the USpace page. Which I think is due to it originally being called Uspace, and I name changed it to USpace and the system isn't connecting the dots when I make it a category.
Or I don't know what's going on, and the whole thing is goofy.
Oh, I missed that... good point. Will have to add categories as I edit.
The things I wrote in the Description boxes are taken from the game when you open the log and read that box. So those are also as written in game. The box isn't big enough to see all the dialogue. The text inside [ ] is what I imagined makes sense, or left [ ___ ] when I didn't want to make a guess.
I've been using the Additional Information section for editorial commentary of my own observations and whatnot.
Sorry for the confusion. I don't mind editing, it's fine, I doubt the devs are going to use this to correct grammar/spelling errors anyway. I just wanted to know if we wanted to play teacher or not.
I've notcied that there have been some edits to some of my pages. Which I don't mind at all, but I'm curious about one thing. When I am copying the text directly from the game it is often the case that the typos (mispellings) are not from my translation, but are direct quotes from the text in game. That is, the devs and the game has the typo/mispelling not me. Do we want to "fix" the errors we see in game with how spelling and grammar should be or leave it as it is in the game?
The Limbo page also has the Bad Sector quest box in it too... perhaps move that around?
The character template could probably be used for everything else? It's generic enough to allow a good base for everything non-quest.
How do we edit what gets put in the infobox?
Edit - Ok, I think I got it, copy and pasted the stuff.
