== About templates == | |||
Thanks for calling my attention to this problem. I have scheduled a cleaning for next Saturday - all templates that are not being used or lack a clear purpose will be deleted. ~ [[User:Aria der Donau|Aria der Donau]] 15:17, 4 December 2011 (EST) | |||
:You're welcome. :) Most of those templates were Amy copying stuff from Zelda Wiki... [[User:BrandedOne|BrandedOne]] 16:27, 4 December 2011 (EST) | |||
== Hey... == | |||
Can I ask you what the purpose of adding line breaks into those articles is for? And why you are now [http://fireemblemwiki.org/index.php?title=Vanessa&curid=4109&diff=23676&oldid=23646 reverting] pretty much all the stuff I just spent quite a bit of time working on? [[User:Natasha|Natasha]] 01:08, 22 January 2012 (EST) | |||
:Line breaks are all about the display. We want to make things aesthetically pleasing, and that's why we put line breaks there. I appreciate the work you've done, that actually saved me the time that it would have taken to do it myself, so thanks. :) I'm putting back the qualifiers for the siblings because I think it's important to know that Tana is Innes's younger sister, etc. I believe I only actually undid one edit there, and I'm not trying to waste your time. However, little things like reorganizing the order of the infobox fields really doesn't do anything... so while it's not wrong, it's a little unnecessary. Thanks for the time that you've taken to fill out all of those captions and help text fields, it's a really big help! :) [[User:BrandedOne|BrandedOne]] 01:16, 22 January 2012 (EST) | |||
::The problem with line breaks in this case is that not everyone uses the same resolution or browser when visiting the website. For some people, a line break disrupts the word flow such that it forces the text onto more than just two lines, making it look awkward and out of place. A line break after every sentence is absurd, and even the games themselves don't use line breaks in their descriptions. | |||
::Using "qualifiers" for siblings according to age isn't something that can be held universal in all situations. Sometimes, you don't know whether a sibling is older or younger because the games simply don't mention it. If someone is that interested in knowing whether Innes is older than Tana, they should look it up on the article page about Innes because there would probably be a reference which mentions that kind of information. | |||
::And reorganizing the order of the infobox fields according to the way they were originally set up in the template is for convenience sake, so that every time something changes or new information is discovered, it can be added without having to first figure out which fields are missing from the infobox. [[User:Natasha|Natasha]] 01:43, 22 January 2012 (EST) | |||
:::I understand your point about people viewing in different resolutions, but our infoboxes are all fixed in width, meaning everyone views them at the same resolution. That's where I've been putting line breaks, where everyone can clearly see the effects of them no matter the computer they're using. So, just because we don't know all of the qualifiers for siblings doesn't mean we don't know some of them. Why not display the knowledge that we have in its full extent? People want to retrieve information quickly this day in age, and so putting the qualifier there saves them the search. Plus, I believe our editor-in-chief [[:User:Aria der Donau]] began listing siblings this way, and it would be good to follow her example. Having said that, I see where you're coming from in regards to organizing infoboxes. I wouldn't need it myself, so my first thought is that it's a bit of an overkill, but I can definitely see where that would be useful for other people.

::::If you’re going to make up arbitrary rules without any collaboration from other users or rationale besides “this is the way we’re doing it,” at least have the common courtesy to tell someone before they invest their personal time and effort into trying to improve the wiki. Or at least have an established manual of style or policies that are agreed upon by the community that people can refer to before they start editing here. Precedent examples are not a rational basis in and of themselves. | |||

==Question== | |||
When I first logged on here, I could create pages. But now I cannot. How come this right was taken away? --[[User:34Krom43|34Krom43]] ([[User talk:34Krom43|talk]]) 05:49, 29 June 2012 (EDT) | |||
:And I can no longer move pages. Something happened when our webmaster made some updates a while ago, and we're not sure exactly what. We're trying our best to resolve the issue. [[User:BrandedOne|BrandedOne]] ([[User talk:BrandedOne|talk]]) 15:51, 29 June 2012 (EDT) | |||
:Hmm... actually, I'm not sure. I'll see if I can find anything out. You sure you're logged in when you're trying to create the page? Try using the entry box on the Main Page? [[User:BrandedOne|BrandedOne]] ([[User talk:BrandedOne|talk]]) 15:55, 29 June 2012 (EDT) | |||
:I tried it, and it does not work. --[[User:34Krom43|34Krom43]] ([[User talk:34Krom43|talk]]) 06:18, 30 June 2012 (EDT) | |||
::I'm ashamed to inform that this seems to be an after-effect of the measures taken to control the spam. However, not all users have been denied this right, so... 34Krom34, I would suggest to keep helping other pages; at certain point you should "gain" the right to create pages again. ~ [[User:Aria der Donau|Aria der Donau]] ([[User talk:Aria der Donau|talk]]) 23:51, 5 July 2012 (EDT) | |||
==Good afternoon!== | |||

== A template issue == | |||
The template for Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn has a problem - Micaiah shows up in the bosses section of the template, but her name is misspelled as Michaiah. I don't know how to fix it, and I don't seem to have the authoritah to either fix the template, or get respect for my authoritah. Can you fix it? Thanks.

== Do you want to continue working on the Archanea art sandbox == | |||
[[User:BrandedOne/Archanea_Artwork|You have a very nicely done page]] full of Archanea artwork which I greatly appreciate. I'm wondering if you want any help? For example, FireEmblem.wikia has a higher res version of the [[Rucke]] artwork you could crop? [[User:Emperor Hardin|Emperor Hardin]] ([[User talk:Emperor Hardin|talk]]) 04:39, 22 January 2018 (UTC) | |||
:I'm glad you appreciate that page. At the time, it helped me keep track of what we had and what we didn't. I'm not actively working on it, and my source for scans isn't around at the moment. However, the scan of Rucke you mentioned looks like it's from the same book, so I may take the time to make it transparent soon. Thanks for pointing it out!
