Welcome

Hey man. Nice update on the Mana Globe. I edited that, and the Health Globe a bit. Welcome aboard DiabloWiki.net ;) Hope you'll be around to help when/after the BlizzCon stuff floods us :) --Leord 14:40, 21 August 2009 (CEST)

You there? Seen more nice edits from you :) If you feel unsure on how to reply, check out Help:Talk --Leord 14:02, 4 September 2009 (CEST)

Thanks! I'm just concentrating on the Lore section right now, since its mainly text. I still need to learn how to properly edit pages, will do in a few weeks.--TheWanderer 02:49, 9 September 2009 (CEST)

Oh! That would be awesome! We need lore and lore navigation improved. I am a lore lover, and I keep trying to get to the lore, but bloody Blizzard keep releasing new D3 info. Check out the Help page I made for help. :) Other than just editing text, there is not much more needed doing on lore articles. Ofc, pictures are great as well. But mainly you only need to know how to write (doh) and add pictures :) --Leord 17:50, 9 September 2009 (CEST)

Also, I just saw your other edits. Good job man! :D --Leord 18:23, 9 September 2009 (CEST)

Weird Links

• http://www.diablowiki.net/Talk:Inventory%E2%80%8E&rcid=11745

Where did you get hold of these URLs? They are not regular ones, they contain an invisible sign. In the URL you can see the "%E2%80%8E", and that is how the browser interpret it. Very good of you to create redirects, but I might delete them later, depending on where you got them :) --Leord 11:30, 25 September 2009 (CEST)

It was on the first page:D, in the 'Did you Know?' section. -- 00:24, 26 September 2009 TheWanderer

Oki, ty, I fixed the problem :) That can happen when you copy text from the "recent changes" page. There's an invisible character after each word. So beware :) --Leord 19:14, 29 September 2009 (CEST)

Great work on the lore!

Really nice one with the characters and stuff! :D

I just want to remind you that in order to get people to actually find the articles and read them, you need to put them into a category of some sort. Characters from books go into "Category:Characters", and so on. Also, a navigation box would be good. Just add this code: {{NPC navbox}} of any NPC or character you add. On top of that, click the little "[e]" in the navbox when done, and add the character to an appropriate column :)

Great work though! :D --Leord 11:52, 25 September 2009 (CEST)

By the way! On the Template:NPC navbox, we can see a VERY long list of "Other" characters. Are you sure none of those are "Minor" characters, and can be put in the bottom end in alphabetical order instead? --Leord 12:46, 25 September 2009 (CEST)

What happened with the classes

I left a message for User:Krunkest404. So, basically, he managed to fuck up the boilerplate as well as the Classbox. This was obviously beyond your skills, but what you SHOULD have done is restoring the classbox, and then moving it back to it's real name. That would have fixed it without deleting the classbox code from each of the class pages.

I appreciate you did as good as you could, and it's honestly better without class boxes than having a fan class on EVERY single class. However, if you feel unsure in the future, don't delete, just comment it out. I am now gonna write a long message for Krunkest404.... :P --Leord 13:33, 25 September 2009 (CEST)

Range of updates

Saw the updates from Monday evening. Bloody nice :) --Leord 11:17, 14 October 2009 (CEST)

Thanks! Though that's Monday morning or Tuesday marning:)--TheWanderer 02:52, 15 October 2009 (CEST)

I Know, I am a bit late. I did see it back then, but I was fiddling with stuff and never got my finger out to comment. :) At the moment, I am doing Diablo II skills in the D2 wiki. You could help me fill out the lore entries that gets created from that! It's primarily the flavour text Blizz added to spells and classes. We really need to re-write the Amazon, Paladin etc articles to be more "wiki", and also incorporate much info available on the skills. The Amazon skills are particularly full of info about the Amazon pantheon, which would be cool to map out in a [[Amazon pantheon of gods]] or similar article. Perhaps [[Amazon gods]] would suffice as a name...

Also, cross referencing skills with lore articles etc.

In the D2 wiki, we won't do much lore, so changing links from local lore links in the D2 wiki to use the {{iw|link link}} template (check here for how to use. Basically, replacing links in D2W that leads to lore in D2W with links to DW.net. :) --Leord 12:40, 15 October 2009 (CEST)

Got it Chief!--TheWanderer 00:51, 16 October 2009 (CEST)

Cool, then you got something to do if you become bored :P --Leord 15:34, 16 October 2009 (CEST)

Nor Tiraj and other new pages

Regarding Nor Tiraj, I just wanted to say - awesome you add them - but you need to add them to categories and navboxes, or they will just be forgotten in the flow of wiki articles. So, put articles like that in Category:Characters, and add the {{NPC navbox}} to it. I know, he's not an npc, but we'll sort out the "character navbox" and "NPC navbox" etc later on. Perhaps also add characters of the Horadrim to Category:Horadrim... --Leord 12:49, 15 October 2009 (CEST)

In the most literal sense of NPC, Nor Tiraj is one too. I don't recall being able to play with Nor Tiraj? :P --Vipermagi 21:17, 15 October 2009 (CEST)

Well, saying "NPC" indicates they are part of the game, and they are not. So they are "Characters" pure and simple. We reserve the term "NPC" for characters we'll meet in-game that are not controlled by the AI. Either way, the navbox will do fine until we get more characters and NPCs, at which point we'll have to organise the whole thing better. --Leord 15:34, 16 October 2009 (CEST)

New Work

I think I'll start working on the Deadend pages and Lonely pages :) listed in Melianor's page.--TheWanderer 00:58, 16 October 2009 (CEST)

Saw that. Awesome :) Also, consider looking into "short pages", and "wanted pages". You can find them all here, and you can put the links you use a lot on your own user page for reference. I would link mine, but that one's a mess, don't even go there :P --Leord 15:34, 16 October 2009 (CEST)
