It's because you mispelled "Category". I've fixed it.

Poor Tudana...did they not put in a Tudanese translator? *comforts*

I saw it last night.

Ok so I want to help add things in but am finding that I'm too noob at wiki to be of any help right now. Can someone please help me understand how you add an article to the NPCs? I understand the basic coding, but whenever I click on edit on the Vendors page, all it has is the text at the top of the page. It doesn't list the vendor articles that are on display. Any assistance is welcome.

Sounds like you're trying to edit a category.

Go to the sandbox and edit it instead. Please the name of the vendor you wish to add in [[brackets]] and then save the sandbox.

Click on your new link. An empty page will be created which you can edit. Add your details (use the NPC template if you understand templates).

Put a category down the bottom [[Category:Vendors]]

That is how you add a vendor to that list.

Thanks for the help! With that info I was able to figure out how to add an NPC. My next question is, how do I take the border off of images? I don't like the thick orange square that surrounds the little coin icons...

[Therian]

You can either bug Nolaquen about it (it's part of the design), or use a frame

I added in a new Template for items to make things a bit more easier. The name of the template is called "Drop". It has everything i can think of and I will be using it as I update what all I find.

To use it all you need to do is copy/paste


{{Drop|Name=Item Name
|Zone=[[Zone]]
|Mob=[[Mob]]
|Soulbound=Soulbound?
|Type=Type
|Slot=Slot
|Damage=Damage
|Speed=Speed
|DPS=DPS
|Modifiers=Modifiers
|Item Level=Item Level
|Weight=Weight
|Armor Class=Armor Class
|Required Class=Required Class}}

into the page you are editing and fill in the correct information.

Hope you guys like it.. let me know if something needs to be changed, or if you know how to add/change it feel free to do so =)

Pages should come out something like this Twisted Resin Coated Dagger

Just a note: I believe Nolaquen still has plans for a formal item database.

That's what I have been using today to get as much info in as possible and its nice and consistant with the other forms

Correct me if I'm wrong, I thought I read that its better to get the info in than not on the items.

Logging in to SV does not log you in to the wiki. You must actually "login" on that portion of the site.

Ok this might be a silly question, but how do you register for the Wiki portion of the site? If I click on the "Create an account or log in" link and click on create account it takes me to the forum registration page, not the wiki registration page. I am not able to login to the Wiki using the information I entered there, just into the forums.

I hope to find a way around this at some point, but as it is now, the wiki can't handle any spaces or other unusual characters in usernames. Even I have to create a new account to edit the wiki since I have a ó in my board username.
