| − | :Whose palm do we have to grease to get ParserFunctions installed? This type of functionality could be very useful--[[User:Petzl|Petzl]] 08:49, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
| |
| − | ::In January we'll be upgrading the ChaosForge Wiki's to 1.20, which will add ParserFunctions from core. If by February this isn't done, you can officially stab me with a pointy thing until it's done --[[User:Epyon|Epyon]] 06:26, 20 December 2012 (CET)

| − | :::It's February... -- [[User:Roy|Roy]] 02:22, 21 February 2013 (CET)
| |
| | | | |
| − | Semantic MediaWiki would offer two main advantages. First, most lists and tables on the wiki could be automatically generated. This means that most existing lists/tables could be kept automatically in sync, and it also means that adding more useful tables would be trivial. For example, I think it might be nice to have, on every page like [[list of deep elves]], a summary table showing HP, HD, MR, etc., of each monster. The second advantage is that users can make custom queries, such as "show me all backgrounds and their starting spells" (i.e., spells from the starting spell books). -- [[User:Roy|Roy]] 18:29, 17 February 2013 (CET)

| − | The old wiki has been put up at [http://old-crawl.chaosforge.org/ old-crawl.chaosforge.org]. Username: old_crawl, Password: dungeon. --[[User:Flun|Flun]] 15:36, 24 March 2013 (CET)
| |
| | | | |
| − | Okay, does anyone know why the password on the old site stopped working? I was migrating a bunch of species articles and then it died... I hope I wasn't doing something incorrectly. -[[User:Ion frigate|Ion frigate]] 23:38, 20 December 2012 (CET)

| − | ==Background articles==
| + | See the [[CrawlWiki_talk:Community_portal|Discussion]] page for general community talk about and around the wiki. |
| − | Just a general notice, I think a lot of these may be outdated, and they also tend to be woefully short. Admittedly, background isn't that significant, and I think that's why a lot of these articles haven't gotten much attention, but still, it's something we should work on (although it probably will have to wait until we have most or all of the articles moved over).
| |
| | | | |
| − | ==Something that will likely take a while==
| + | [[Category:Community]] |
| − | Just a general notice: redirects. They're never in categories on the old wiki, meaning they can't be conveniently exported. Thus, they're pretty much going to have to be created manually. So, if you see a red link in an article, search to see if the topic already exists, and if it does, create a redirect. -[[User:Ion frigate|Ion frigate]] 02:14, 23 December 2012 (CET)

| − | | |
| − | ==Strategy guides==
| |
| − | A general guideline I think we should adopt for anyone writing a guide, and one that should be retroactively applied to already-written guides as much as possible: say the version(s) you are basing your guide on. That should give newer players a decent impression of how up-to-date/out-of-date the guide is. -[[User:Ion frigate|Ion frigate]] 22:32, 6 February 2013 (CET)
| |
| − | :This should probably apply to all articles - perhaps it should be a goal to tag every page with a version? -- [[User:Roy|Roy]] 20:43, 18 February 2013 (CET)

| − | ==Wiki engine upgrade update==
| |
| − | I sent Kornel an email about when the upgrade is coming. He is at the moment busy with getting a new version of DoomRL out and doing some server upgrades.
| |
| − | | |
| − | At the moment the VPS split is our primary objective. Once that is
| |
| − | done, we need to setup the dummy DoomRL modserver (also primary
| |
| − | objective because it's stalling the 0.9.9.7 release :( ), and then
| |
| − | we'll be updating all MediaWiki installations.

| − | ==Inception==
| |
| − | On the main page I found today a red link of "inception". The wiki search mask didn't give any hints what this could be. But especially on the main page there should remain NO red links longer than one day! Anybody able to "blue" it with some contents that males sense? -- [[User:Bwijn|Bwijn]] 11:05, 30 March 2013 (CET)
| |
| − | :Whatever it WAS it's no longer there now. I'm removing it from the page. --[[User:MoogleDan|MoogleDan]] 14:22, 30 March 2013 (CET)
| |
| − | | |
| − | :"Inception" is the name of the branch where the new Abyss was developed. I guess that this branch was available in CSZO for testing purposes, and later it was removed when inception was merged into master. --[[User:CommanderC|CommanderC]] 19:35, 30 March 2013 (CET)

| − | ==Attack Speed articles==
| |
| − | I've seen that [[Attack Speed]] and [[Attack speed]] are both articles that exist, although it looks like [[Attack Speed]] is just an older version (0.11, to be precise). Is there a policy on keeping articles around that refer to old versions? If not, I propose turning the [[Attack Speed]] article into a redirect only. [[User:Antdos|Antdos]] 16:30, 15 June 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | :: Yeah, a redirect would be a good idea. There should be only once copy of that article. --[[User:Flun|Flun]] 16:58, 15 June 2013 (CEST)
| |
| − | | |
| − | :: I think the general rule is: if it's something currently in the game (not counting trunk), it should be updated and any outdated versions/pages should be deleted. If something is removed from the game, mark it as obsolete and keep the page for historical reference. --[[User:Lokkij|Lokkij]] 20:30, 15 June 2013 (CEST)

| − | ==The Tavern & the wiki==
| |
| − | I've seen some people on the Tavern saying this wiki is *not an accurate source of information*. This might be true for some articles, but really, most of them are up-to-date and have version tags if they aren't. So why are they saying that?<br>
| |
| − | Also, if there isn't already, it might be a good idea to make a I-noticed-a-mistake-on-the-wiki-but-I'm-too-lazy-to-correct-it-thread (although it might have to be renamed :P). Do you think that would work? --[[User:Lokkij|Lokkij]] 22:39, 22 June 2013 (CEST)
