Devil Helmet Quest
Hey I just registered to make an edit on this page ( I was using it and realized there is some misinformation present) but realized I don't have the privilege, so I'm hoping you or another admin can. The Wiki page for this quest sais:

"You cannot solo this quest. You must have a partner, and the partner will not get any quest items, unless you do the quest twice." - Devil Helmet Quest/Spoiler

BUT at the end of the article, when it talks about how to leave the area, it sais:

"Go west in the quest room down a small passage. Use a pick at the end of this passage to reveal a hole in the floor. Fall down the hole. You will now be in a small passage inside of the castle inMintwallin, and will emerge in the throne room with Markwin."

I know via personal experience that you can easily instruct the person who has the stand on the switch to activate the grate, to walk to King Markwin's room after their buddy passes through the grate, through the level-door, and then stand against the boulder blocking the passage (of the 2 squares adjacent to boulder, its the top one), and when the partner who killes the dragon and makes it to the quest room uses a pick to open that hole, they can rope their buddy up, so they can also loot the treasure, without having to reverse rolls and do this all over. Does this make sense?

P.S I think it's fair to mention in the devil helmet quest page that key 3667 can open the door to get key 3610. The wiki page makes it sound like there is no other way through there unless you're the one who moves the wall. Superkurd13 01:43, January 10, 2011 (UTC)

That is correct. I've removed the misinformation.Art Featherpitch 18:38, January 10, 2011 (UTC)

And I've contacted Art. :P

Thanks, Art! However I thought you were going to write about the options the second person has to do the quest, and something about the key 3667... someone should do that...

The page also includes (still) this paragraph:

This is where you split upEdit

Note: At least one person must go this way. The selected person will go down the ladder, a bit west then up a hole. Go south to a blocked off passage. They must stand on the open square. This will open a grate for the others to go down. This party member will not be able to complete the quest.

Thanks,

Superkurd13 23:19, January 11, 2011 (UTC)

Ok, I removed the sentence "This party member will not be able to complete the quest."

Thanks for reporting.

Samera
Hi, I'm having some problems with editing the Samera-page on here. It says that the top clubber is Samurai Adam with skill 100 (I tried to change it to 101), but Nex Pinnen (me) has 101. I don't know how to edit the name, would be helpful if you could tell me, or do it.

I just did that for you. :)

The easiest way to do a change like that is to press Ctrl+F and look for the name you want to change, so replace it by the desired name. Remember to preview your edit (press Show changes button) before saving it (Publish button).

como faço pra postar uma foto aki no sit ?

nao consigo postar fotos =/ Gar6 12:46, April 1, 2011 (UTC)

Para postar imagens, a sua conta deve ser "autoconfirmada", o que significa que você precisa fazer no mínimo 10 edições (em artigos do site) e a sua conta deve ter sido criada, no mínimo, há 4 dias (veja TibiaWiki:Autoconfirmed users). Quando ela for autoconfirmada, você poderá postar imagens usando a ferramenta Special:Upload. Lembre-se que o TibiaWiki não deve ser usado como um álbum de screenshots pessoais, mas você pode postar algumas na sua "user page" (User:Gar6), sugiro que leia as seguintes página: TibiaWiki:User Page Guidelines e TibiaWiki:Policy.

Bem-vindo ao TibiaWiki!

English version:

To upload images, your account must be autoconfirmed (see TibiaWiki:Autoconfirmed users), then you'll be able to use Special:Upload. Remember to avoid uploading excess personal screenshots, please, read TibiaWiki:User Page Guidelines and TibiaWiki:Policy.

Welcome to TibiaWiki!

Myths Page
Hey hunter of dragoes,

I want to make a new page but I am not sure if it is good idea so I post it here as a proposal.

Maybe we could make a page called 'myths' which lists all the myths in Tibia. I was inspired by a thread on the rpg board on tibia.com (http://forum.tibia.com/forum/?action=thread&amp;threadid=3229896). The Serpentine Tower Quest is now listed as a quest but we don't know yet if it is a quest.

Thanks in advance

Devalix 13:11, April 24, 2011 (UTC)

According to TibiaWiki standards and policy #4, information should only be added to the wiki if it is accurate. Therefore, a "myths" page wouldn't follow those guidelines, and it's not a good idea in my opinion.

Note that there are already articles on some of those "myths" like Excalibug and Beholder Language. Feel free to edit those articles, but remember to avoid personal (or somebody else's) guesses and rumours.

Regarding Serpentine Tower, there aren't proofs that it is really a quest so far. Thus, the Template:Infobox_Quest shouldn't be applied on such article and it shouldn't be considered a quest, in my opinion.

&lt;·&gt; Hunter of Dragoes &lt;·&gt; My Talk &lt;·&gt; My Contributions &lt;·&gt; 23:48, April 25, 2011 (UTC)

Ok no problem, I'm glad I asked you first. :D

Devalix 16:13, April 26, 2011 (UTC)

Oh, well, let me be part of this discussion too... =P

I really think that a myth page is a good idea and that really don't break the guidelines. See, the policy says we can only add accurate information, but in the case of a myth page the "information" isn't what the myths says, it's the myths itself. Even tho what the myth says isn't actually an accurate information, the existence of the myth is a fact.

For example, here at the wiki we already have a Sword of Fury page full of rumours and speculations and that isn't bad after all. The rumours exist and even tho the rumours aren't true (or it is? ;P), the fact that these rumours exist is true and since the wiki says specifically that these are in fact just rumours I don't see any harm.

Another example right now: the formulas. It's a little obvious that the majority (or even all) of the formulas aren't the formulas used at the game (it's possible that Tibia don't even use all the formulas we have here, maybe just overlays of calculations being done, anyway...), but even tho these formulas aren't the real ones, they are good enough for what we need.

Excalibug and Beholder Language was already said and there's probably yet another examples that I don't remember just now. So, in conclusion, I don't think it break the guidelines and it's a cool idea. And I bet the talk page of that article would be cool too. 19:22, April 27, 2011 (UTC)

Provided that a myth page is unbiased / has accurate info (info based on books and NPC stories, for example), it doesn't break the guidelines.

The "myths" page can contain a brief definition of myth and the list of myths linking to each of them. Thus, info about a specific myth will be found on its respective page.

Good luck with such articles! :)

Hello Sir, I need to know How to become Admin here and What are the requirements?

Olá Senhor, eu preciso saber como se tornar Admin aqui e Quais são os requisitos?

 Craggles  ಠ_ಠ  Talk ∙ Contribs  08:07, May 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * Requirements are years of wiki dedication, noticeable contributions to the site and recognition amongst the admins that you'll do a good job.

I would like to apply for admin of tibia wikia (:
hi good afternoon my name is Jesus Manuel i have played tibia for 4 years. i've used this wikia for years and i think i can help to improve a lot of things ... i speak english, portugues, spanish and german

Sincerously jesus

my mail :chuy.ae_boam@live.com.mx

To reiterate what Craggles said in the above comment, first you should become a regular contributor and establish yourself as a good editor. If the need for another administrator rises the first considered are those who have consistent and good edits and can commit to the work. I also commented on your talk page. --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 03:20, June 2, 2011 (UTC)

Somewhat off-topic: I think all of the people who request adminship have the belief that adminship is required to edit. I had a short discussion in English chat a few days ago where I made an edit for someone and the entire chatroom was surprised that anyone could edit most pages. -- Sixorish 07:09, June 2, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks Craggles and DM for your responses.

Interesting, Sixorish. Maybe we should edit the text "How to Contribute" on Main Page (we can make it clear that everyone can create an account on Wikia and edit unprotected pages) and create a poll (e.g. "Are you already a user or are you still just a visitor?"). What do you think?

&lt;·&gt; Hunter of Dragoes &lt;·&gt; My Talk &lt;·&gt; My Contributions &lt;·&gt; 18:47, June 3, 2011 (UTC)

It is a good point so i followed your idea and made a poll for next week. --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 19:38, June 3, 2011 (UTC)

Late reply sorry. Good points there and I don't think it helps that you need to go half way down the homepage to see the "How to Contribute" section. I never read it when I started editing, more than likely because I never saw it or was more interested in learning myself. Maybe as an encouragement for users to sign up, without moving anything about, there could be a message in the news section directing players on how to help or even in the "Tip of the Month" section, since for a long time it has been focused on just game content. I think there should be a big note on signing talk pages anyway. Beejay 00:44, June 7, 2011 (UTC)

Nice ideas, Beejay. :D

I and a few friends, 4 of us total have just started the Thais faction of the secret service quest, and on mission one we found that after setting fire to venore docks, you must wait aprox~ 7 minutes for the fire to die down so the next person can set fire to the docks. I thought this should be made mentioned in the spoiler, but found the quest locked from editing. I would appreciate it if you or another admin could include a [Note] with a sentence or two noting that you will have to wait 7 minutes in between each players turn. Thank you for your time.

Kukironosuke 20:04, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

Main Page Tweaks
Hello, my name is Nic and I'm a member of the Wikia Content Team. I was wondering if you would be interested in having your main page tweaked a little bit to make it more exciting and engaging. As the number 5 Wiki, we'd like to reach out to you and help you with this, if your community wants it. If not, just let us know. We also will help you with some of the Projects on here if you'd like. - Wagnike2 14:40, October 26, 2011 (UTC)

Hello, Nic.

Could you make this "tweaked" version of Main Page on a test page? So we can see compare them and choose if we will accept the changes or stay as it is now.

What do you mean by "number 5 Wiki"?

Thanks for offering help. =)

&lt;·&gt; Hunter of Dragoes &lt;·&gt; My Talk &lt;·&gt; My Contributions &lt;·&gt; 20:17, October 26, 2011 (UTC)


 * I was planning on making it on a test page indeed, and by the number 5 wiki. I mean traffic wise, your wiki is the 5th best gaming wiki. - Wagnike2 06:00, October 27, 2011 (UTC)

What do you have in mind with "more exciting and engaging". Can you give some examples of ways to achieve this? It would help more than a visual example because we could better fit it to our wants/needs. -- Sixorish 16:57, October 27, 2011 (UTC)

A few suggestions - 1.) Revamping the news section, instead of having the news like you have it maybe you could do it in a News Section like on Fallout, 2.) A content slider of sorts - maybe like the one on Dragon Age, 3.) Perhaps a Featured Video, would help to also even the right and left hand columns a bit. Those are three suggestions off the top of my head. If you guys want to proceed with this on your own, please just let me know. - Wagnike2 18:12, October 27, 2011 (UTC)

1) Fallout's news are posted on "User blog" pages, our community has never used the blog and I don't know if we would get used to it. 2) Yes, we could choose some screenshots (and concept arts) to make a similar slider. 3) No, we have no videos. Unless somebody wants to be responsible for recording them.

&lt;·&gt; Hunter of Dragoes &lt;·&gt; My Talk &lt;·&gt; My Contributions &lt;·&gt; 21:59, October 27, 2011 (UTC)

Some tweaks i would like:

Regardless i personally i set my own width and block any elements i do not like, but it would be nice for most other Tibia visitors here. --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 01:09, October 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Let us adjust the "WikiaPage" content width instead of having an imposed standard width.
 * Remove the sidebar widgets (ads, calendar, photos, 'read more', etc.) as they are mostly irrelevant as used.
 * Or let us customize them more, like select pictures by category or namespace.
 * Reconsider some of your ad images that do not match the stories and are inappropriate at least for our younger visitors (e.g. most websites selling stock usually show people wearing all their clothes, but not on wikia...)

Christmas event on Harmonia
Greetings! A person in my guild on Harmonia asked if some admin from TibiaWiki could come online on Harmonia some day and talk to him about maybe donating a fansite item for a christmas event he's arranging. I have no info about the event so you have to talk to him about it.
