| | + | == Images == |
| | + | Due to a security risk, we've had to temporarily disable the plugin that allows Thumbnail creation for images. Images can still be uploaded, but until the plugin is patched, new thumbnails cannot be created. We expect a patch to be forthcoming within a week or so. --[[User:Resplendent|Resplendent]] ([[User talk:Resplendent|talk]]) 23:22, 4 May 2016 (UTC) |

| − | ==About Plural Links==
| + | [[Category:Project Pages]] |
| − | Okay, I'm noticing a LOT of people doing this. When making a page link PLURAL, as in <nowiki>[[High Priest]]s</nowiki> do NOT put the "S" INSIDE the <nowiki>[[Link]], like [[High Priest</nowiki>'''s''']] this. Instead, add the "S" to the OUTSIDE of the link, like <nowiki>[[High Priest]]</nowiki>'''s''' this. It's creating a lot of "wanted pages" and it's really time consuming to go through all of them and fix em. Thanks. --[[User:Resplendent|Resplendent]] 22:51, 17 September 2007 (MDT)

| − | :Another thing that is putting a very large number of pages on [[Special:WantedPages]] is articles are being copied and pasted, and when people see a link to ''Berserk Potions'' (or any item), and they simply change it to ''<nowiki>[[Berserk Potions]]</nowiki>''. Double check links before doing this, many of them are originally [[Template:Item]] and actually are supposed to link to [http://rode.doddlercon.com/ R.O.D.E.]. If people dont want to look up ID numbers, thats perfectly fine, leave it as ''Berserk Potions'', likely someone else will eventually change it --[[User:Biochemistness-76|Biochemistness-76]] 00:10, 18 September 2007 (MDT)

| − | == Gif's vs Png's ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | At this point, we already have almost all the skill icons and a large number of item icons uploaded in .png format. There was some brief [[Talk:Posting_Rules|discussion]] on this topic, but the only contributions were regarding jpg vs png since screenshots are originally jpeg. If peoeple desire to use a different format across the wiki, there should probably be some further discussion on the topic rather than people just blindly changing templates back and forth.
| |
| − | | |
| − | (also, [[Template:Skill]] and [[Template:Skill List]] are serving the same function, one should be decided on and the other should be disposed of.)

| − | :[[Template:Skill]] seems to be the more frequently used template; [[Template:Skill List]] is probably only used because it appears in the Templates Category, while [[Template:Skill]] doesn't (should be fixed if it's the one kept) --[[User:Reiko|Reiko]] 04:00, 24 September 2007 (MDT)

| − | == Policy Development ==
| |
| − | I would like to see some actual coherent, consensus-supported policies come into existence here.
| |
| − | | |
| − | A potential skeleton for these could be:
| |
| − | *Editing Policy
| |
| − | **[[iRO Wiki:Civility]] - Policies regarding dealing with other editors, such as assuming good faith, civility, etc.
| |
| − | **[[iRO Wiki:Deletion]] - Policy regarding deletion of articles and other media on the wiki.
| |
| − | **[[iRO Wiki:Protection]] - Policy regarding the protection and semi-protection of articles.
| |
| − | **[[iRO Wiki:Moderator]] - Policy regarding the provision and revocation of sysop status as well as sysop-specific policies (e.g. policies regarding wheel warring)
| |
| − | **[[iRO Wiki:Vandalism]] - Coherent policy against vandalism (with a definition of what vandalism is)
| |
| − | *Content Policy
| |
| − | **[[iRO Wiki:Verifiability]] - Policy that verifiable information is preferable to non-verifiable information.
| |
| − | **[[iRO Wiki:Use iRO]] - Policy that information from private servers is strictly prohibited and information from legal servers other than iRO (e.g. kRO) is less important (and less useful) than information from iRO.
| |
| − | *Style Policy
| |
| − | **[[iRO Wiki:Manual of Style]] - Create a coherent theme that should be shared by all wiki articles. Should include a section on naming conventions as well.

| − | :These are all currently in the main namespace, were they intended to be in the project namespace? I can see some value to having them (at this point) out of the project namespace, as that will allow people without sysop to edit/contribute to them. Though ultimately they should be in the project namespace.

| − | == Maintenance Script ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | The maintenance script apparently did not preserve any of the page information associated with any of the images. So it seems all the images are without categories, and any images that may have previously had descriptions no longer do. Can this be solved by some simple tweaking of the script, or will categories & descriptions need to be manually added every time the script runs? --[[User:Biochemistness-76|Biochemistness-76]] 15:11, 26 September 2007 (MDT)
| |
| − | :The maintenance script was a one time deal. We totally reinstalled the wiki and transferred everything over via importing and that script. It won't happen again, but I think we'll probably have to manually redo everything that is missing, sorry. Beats having a broken wiki though! --[[User:Resplendent|Resplendent]] 16:11, 26 September 2007 (MDT)

| − | == Kafra Shop and VAS Pages ==
| |
| − | It'd be nice if there was page describing, in general, how the KS functions, its benefits, and payment methods for iRO in particular. Since this isn't a wiki for any other version, I wouldn't worry about how others do it, especially since it would probably only confuse people. We might also want to do pages for the Value Added Services, since there's soon to be a Stat Reset along with the original two. --[[User:Resplendent|Resplendent]] 00:00, 8 November 2007 (MST)

| |
| − | :I'm thinking for this maybe have a [[First Classes Job Change Guides]] page with all 6, then a different guide for each 2nd class, and an [[Expanded Classes Job Change Guides]] page for Super Novice, Gunslinger and Ninja.

| − | * Lots of missing [[:Category:Skill Images|skill desc images]] (for active skills which should have one)

| − | :RODE seems a bit slow as of late, and to a noticeable extent doesn't have complete 11.3 info up. (Presumably in anticipation of RODE2). Amesani on the other hand seems to have more of its info up to date but is a slightly different look & feel for people to get used to. Too much switching around is probably not a good idea, (so it would be good if amesani is around long term).

| − | I'm having trouble because of the reduced contrast. My eyesight is ok, but the contrast is too low in my opinion. Any possibility of providing a second, better-contrast alternate stylesheet? Technically, the current body text color (RGB 96 109 125) in grayscale is 110 (out of 255), in other words less than half contrast. I find it slightly painful. Links also need to stick out more, methinks. --[[User:Steax|Steax]] 23:48, 13 June 2008 (MDT)
