Beta, I made an npc Template, and converted over mushroom jack.  Should make all npc pages look the same and should we need to make adjustments it'll just be in once place. Could you take a look and let me know what you think? thanks

: Sure. See if you can message me in-game or at the link found on the [[Discord]] page. I like the overall concept, but it does cause a few issues right now. [[User:BetaNotus|BetaNotus]] ([[User talk:BetaNotus|talk]]) 14:11, 31 August 2019 (EDT)
  
== Purging multiple pages ==
+
== Request for Assistance :D ==
Hello.  After some edits yesterday a number of pages seem not to be updating past their cached version (see e.g. [[Mushroom_Jack#Sells]] to see the problem). This applies to edits made to [[Template:Icon]] and [[Template:MOB_infobox]].  I'm looking to purge multiple pages (or the whole wiki) to fix this.  Wanted so see if you had any experience with this before proceeding.  Discussion at [[Template_talk:Icon]].  I've posted on Extractum11's talk page as well.

== Remove Template:Vendor recipe row ==
+
I'm trying to incorporate level requirements into the Dailies page and I wonder if you might be able to help with that? I started putting some info on the talk page here [[Talk:Daily Quests]][[User:Ransel|Ransel]] ([[User talk:Ransel|talk]]) 22:06, 29 June 2021 (EDT)
 
 
I created this template when trying to sort out how to make recipe rows at a vendor show icons and link to the proper pages.  I tested the template on the [[Braigon]] page and was not happy with the result.  With several other changes, Template:Vendor item row now works in this capacity, and produces a satisfactory result.  I've changed the Braigon page to Template:Vendor item row and as such this template is no longer used or needed (and may add confusion).  We need someone with sysop to delete please. Thanks! [[User:Arindor|Arindor]] ([[User talk:Arindor|talk]]) 22:55, 15 March 2017 (CDT)
 
:Since chatted with [[User:Alleryn|Alleryn]] and he suggested use [[Template:Delete]].  Added to page. [[User:Arindor|Arindor]] ([[User talk:Arindor|talk]]) 23:04, 15 March 2017 (CDT)
 
:: Thanks for using [[Template:Delete]]! It throws pages into Category:Candidates for deletion, which notifies me when something is added to it. [[User:BetaNotus|BetaNotus]] ([[User talk:BetaNotus|talk]]) 11:30, 20 March 2017 (CDT)

Hey BetaNotus,  would it be possible for you to rename the current page   Copper ore  to  Copper Ore  ?

== ItemT changes ==
 
 
 
Please notice icon= syntax for [[Template:ItemT]] is deprecated.  This was dropped when ItemT was converted to use [[Template:Item_icon]]. See docs for details. [[User:Arindor|Arindor]] ([[User talk:Arindor|talk]]) 09:43, 3 May 2017 (CDT)
 
: I have to admit, I completely missed that change (which I really like). Thank you for both implementing it, and pointing it out. [[User:BetaNotus|BetaNotus]] ([[User talk:BetaNotus|talk]]) 18:06, 4 May 2017 (CDT)

== Linking in quest text. ==
 
 
 
I had not been linking, changing case, or correcting any spelling inside quest texts.  My understanding was that we should provide the text from dialogs exactly as provided by the game, without any further manipulation.  Mentioning because I noticed you made such changes recently on [[Find an Amethyst]].  '''Summary''' information is directly from Quest Journal and, of course, the '''Preface''' text is from dialogue with the NPC.  I ask this question because I seem to be the only one adding the quest text to quests. :) [[User:Arindor|Arindor]] ([[User talk:Arindor|talk]]) 09:35, 6 May 2017 (CDT)
 
: Good question. The only reason I made those changes was to improve connections between pages on the wiki. There were a few players in-chat last night that requested improved information on Amethysts, so I added a few links between pages to hopefully alleviate some of their concerns. In my opinion, it would be beneficial for users of the wiki if editors were to link to wiki pages of items, characters, and locations that appear in the Quest '''Summary''' information. To preserve spelling and capitalization, [[Amethyst|things could be linked like this, which would work]]. What is your opinion? [[User:BetaNotus|BetaNotus]] ([[User talk:BetaNotus|talk]]) 11:50, 6 May 2017 (CDT)
 
:: In my opinion, I think linking and even correcting are fine, as long as we stay "faithful" to the intent of the developers.  I am asking the question because I thought I saw somewhere (perhaps in one of the templates?) to quote '''exactly''' as written, and not to attempt to correct.  Final opinion (just a grammatical item), I think technically it should be amethysts and not Amethysts in the text; in those cases use <nowiki>[[Amethyst|amethyst]]</nowiki> (as you suggest).  But opinions aside, I'm happy conforming to whatever standard we choose!
