I don't know why, but Iocaine Milk Smoothie was constantly pointing to the main Mycology page. I created a page for that recipe, and added it (a bit awkwardly) to direct to in the Training list. If anyone can fix it like other pages so it doesn't need the brackets, please do so! --[[User:Ashtalia|Ashtalia]] ([[User talk:Ashtalia|talk]]) 15:37, 30 August 2022 (EDT)
: Iocaine Milk Smoothie points to the Mycology page to act as a workaround for a problem encountered by the bots which populate parts of the wiki. The item Iocaine Milk Smoothie does not exist. None of the poisoned items do! The recipe you learn from Mushroom Jack is '''recipe_307''' - Iocaine Milk Smoothie. The output of this recipe is '''Item_5409''' - Milk Cap Mushroom Smoothie. This is a different item than '''Item_5406''' - Milk Cap Mushroom Smoothie. The produced items have the same name and description. Internally, '''5409''' is poisoned and '''5406''' is not. Following the layout of the wiki, these items should share the same page titled Milk Cap Mushroom Smoothie. Not all of the bots can handle updating information of two identically named items yet (There should be two entries for Moldy Ancient Shirt as an example), so a workaround was created. '''Template:NPC training row''' takes user input and feeds it through [[Template:Recipe]] to determine an output. '''Template Recipe''' is written to process recipes and items which do not match their training menu names and creates redirects to the skill pages which lists those recipes in their Complete Recipe Lists. It also redirects recipes which have no item output. Just as Iocaine Milk Smoothie is not an item, neither is Poisoned Apple Juice. The recipe Poisoned Apple Juice creates a variant of the item Apple Juice, but no item named Poisoned Apple Juice exists. The information on how to use that recipe can be found on the Mycology page, so the workaround for now is to treat poisoned items as if they have no output. I am not sure what progress has been made on the better solution (having the bots correctly place both poisoned and regular recipes on the same page), but I will check!
