| − | == Chrome search title == |
||
| − | |||
| − | Congrats on the move! I wanted to report an error I noticed earlier searching the site via the Google Chrome omnibar. Quick recap: Chrome recognizes searches on a site, and thenceforth when it sees you typing the url it will offer you the ability to press tab and enter keywords to search using the site's search functionality. When you do press tab, Chrome places an icon on the left side of the omnibar that says "Search [site name]:". ''When I searched Wowpedia for the first time, [site name] is still "WoWWiki" according to Chrome.'' I don't know where it pulls this name from, but apparently it didn't get changed over. Threw me for a loop for a second. I'm aware you can change this name manually, which I've done, but obviously the default should be fixed. |
||
| − | |||
| − | TLDR: The Chrome omnibar search functionality still calls Wowpedia "WoWWiki". |
||
| − | |||
| − | ...and grr, it looks like I'm unable to repro this; when I delete the search from Chrome and make it re-generate it, "wowpedia.org" is displayed now. Still could be because of my edit though, so I guess I'll let you guys take a look at it just to be sure. Perhaps you fixed it already.

Specifically, in the [[http://www.wowpedia.org/Wowpedia:DNP_policy#Other_prohibitions_enforced_by_this_policy DNP Policy]] article. I'm not sure where that link really should point, and it's an important enough part of the policies that I really ''don't'' want to get it wrong. So, the next best option seems to be "alert an admin". Well, consider yourself alerted. :) --[[User:PaxArcana|PaxArcana]] ([[User talk:PaxArcana|talk]]) 04:57, 23 October 2010 (UTC) |

I believe the Vector skin would automatically put nearly all of it in nested form. With open/close arrows. I am curious if that is true. If that is true, then if things don't work out at Wikia I may move my wiki to a wiki farm that has the Vector skin. I don't know how long it will be though, before the MediaWiki-based wiki farms upgrade to version 1.16 of MediaWiki. I believe version 1.16 is the first non-beta version with the Vector skin as the default skin. --[[User:Timeshifter|Timeshifter]] ([[User talk:Timeshifter|talk]]) 22:55, 30 October 2010 (UTC) |

While I'm aware that it is in response to events at WoWWiki, I would suggest that we should not allow ourselves to stoop to their level. Let Wikia's foolish actions expose themselves for who they are, and let the community judge with its choice of where to go. We don't need to do anything to help them shoot themsleves in the foot.

| − | Could you help me find the policies governing pages covering now obsolete questlines, NPCs, etc.? I'm looking for pages to clean up and there are still a lot of them about quests that no longer exist. Are we preserving this information? Let me know how I can help out!

| − | : Quick follow-up: if we add the {{t|Removedfromgame}} template, should we remove the other categories? I would think that the "Quests in Feralas" category, for example, should only contain current quests, but what's the policy? -- [[User:Metaneira|Metaneira]] ([[User talk:Metaneira|talk]]) 21:07, 2 December 2010 (UTC) |
||
| − | :: And one more question -- I'm assuming that some categories are added from templates (e.g., [[Quest:Natural Materials]]). Do we have an obsolete questbox template to use that won't populate categories? Or do I just remove the questbox?

||
| − | |||
| − | Looks like you changed all the old wowarmory.com links to use the new battle.net URL's. There's just one problem. In the URL the realm names and character names need to be lower cased; otherwise, you get a big "character not found" error page. Edit: Or not, it appears to be something else. Edit again: Oh, it's a dash rather than a plus for a space in realm's name. —[[User:Egingell|<span class="ajaxttlink">EGingell</span>]]<sup>[[User_talk:Egingell|T]][[Special:Contributions/Egingell|C]]</sup> [http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/cenarion-circle/treader/ Treader of Cenarion Circle] 21:51, 7 December 2010 (UTC) |

| − | Spaces are converted to "-" and apostrophes are stripped (Anub'arak => Anubarak and Cenarion Circle => Cenarion-Circle); however, the URL is not case-sensitive. It's quite dumb, really. —[[User:Egingell|<span class="ajaxttlink">EGingell</span>]]<sup>[[User_talk:Egingell|T]][[Special:Contributions/Egingell|C]]</sup> [http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/cenarion-circle/treader/ Treader of Cenarion Circle] 22:23, 7 December 2010 (UTC) |

| − | == Support from Blizzard? == |
||
| − | |||
| − | The other day I was having a look at my characters on battle.net. Hovering over a profession will display two external links for that profession, to Wowhead and Wowpedia (which I guess you know anyway...). I know wowhead is pretty popular, but it surprised me they had included Wowpedia. I thought Blizzard were hesitant when it came to supporting Wowpedia, which is why Wowpedia is hosted by Curse instead. Have they mentioned anything else concerning any cooperation, or did it just appear out of the blue?

| − | :We were already aware of it. --{{User:Pcj/sig}} 20:47, 18 December 2010 (UTC) |
||
| − | ::Yea, but are they doing anything else besides linking to us, such as considering hosting us (if it would be needed) or donating? I'm just asking out of curiosity. [[User:WrathOfDeathfrost|WrathOfDeathfrost]] ([[User talk:WrathOfDeathfrost|talk]]) 16:25, 19 December 2010 (UTC) |
