Take a look at the difference between how this page renders between browsers , especially IE6.
I don't preach to people about which browser they should use...It does genuinely look/work best in Gecko-based browsers. Template:Smiley --duckie0fq.gifLain Iwakura 18:52, 30 November 2006 (CST)

I suppose you're talking about the rounded corners, which you add using a vendor prefix -- no wonder it looks different. I could start using IE-specific or Opera-specific stuff as well, and then claim the wiki looks better in those browsers. However, that's not what it's here for. The wiki is a source of information for people playing Wurm, not a browser advertisement. - Dashiva 19:12, 30 November 2006 (CST)

Template:Key

Heya thanks for fixing that..one carriage return! It's always the simple fixes isn't it? Doh! Occam's Razor wins again I guess...Template:Smiley --duckieta2.gifLain Iwakura 01:35, 26 January 2007 (CST)

Categorising Pages

Today I have reduced the amount of uncategorised dramaticly, reducing it to only 23 pages. I have noticed that AstroResearch 1 is uncategorised, I however cannot edit this, so please can you, if possible. How do I catergorise foreign language pages also? I was not sure how. Thanks --Mollsmolyneux 14:35, 7 January 2008 (CST)

The Babel categories should be limited to English pages. Other languages have their own general categories. I can't help you with Astroresearch, you need a sysop like Egal or Kilean for that. - Dashiva 01:53, 8 January 2008 (CST)

Thanks for the compliment :D And I like your idea also :D - Tritus


All the namespace correction work you do...

Just to say keep up the good work! Without you Wurmpedia would be a much messier place. --duckieta2.gif Lain Iwakura 10:22, 11 July 2008 (CDT)

Thanks. I have a dream, though, that one day I won't be needed anymore. :-) - Dashiva 11:33, 11 July 2008 (CDT)

One Day You Will Not Be Needed ..

I dont know how to do this ...

... can we have a template to make the top and bottom of every page say something like? ..

Ingame: <f1> wiki pagename

Doing it on every page would mean adding a template to every page, which brings up some design questions. If it's meant for every single page on the wiki, doing it as a wiki extension would be best. If it's just for items, we could add it to the item template. If it's, say, all the pages in the CDB, we could make a lint-and-breadcrumbs template and add that to those. - Dashiva 15:49, 17 July 2008 (CDT)
Well, retrospectively I realise that I phrased my question poorly since it implies that I was asking for that to be done rather than what I actually meant which was more are we allowed to do that and how would I go about doing so.
What had been in my mind at the time was that I had been trying to work out how to make the ingame wiki more helpful and that one way of doing that would be to make it clearer to players to start with that it was there for them to use.
That partially came from a chat I had with Thorgot who helpfully pointed out that the way I should have made the house guide more accessible ingame would have been to copy the page and create a redirect to the new page from the old page.
