About  tags
The wiki does not allow it, you use square brackets (no alternatives) which cannot have classes. A method you can use instead, is wrapping it in a span tag and using: span.tibiatext a { ... } -- Sixorish 23:33, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

I never realized it did not even allow html links, would be convenient in this case. Not quite sure if this is what you mean; either way it did not work but wikis are not quite designed for this type of thing. --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 23:47, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

I meant... Tibia = normal link;

Tibia = your desired link;

Tibia = "red text, blue link" - example of how styles are taken from the innermost to the outer -- only will an  be the other color if it is set by styles directly, because inheriting will only work if  is not set, and most browsers have set  to a blueish color. There's no  in the wikitext at all; the  renders the  after it is parsed, and the CSS only takes effect when it reaches the client - which is after the wikitext is parsed.

On second thoughts, it's acting weird right now, because it works, just not on Wikia.

This should render greyish text, no blue or text decoration: Tibia. I'll save this page and hope it's a caching issue.

Edit: Okay, it seems the comment was the problem. ( = "start line comment, end block comment." It should work now. -- Sixorish 01:33, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for saving the day again, however simple it may be. Wikis seem to squash my ability to script. --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 02:12, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

cemetery quarter
Not totaly true at cementery quarter, I have see death people from tormented ghost (I think that was the name) they get summon doing a quest in the church and they can be lured anywhere, people can summon like 100 if they want, also the nightmares and necros can shot people over the fences. Maybe adding a small warning, if you you afk theres a big chance some one can kill you with a couple of pushes. --Kwigon the sharpshooter 16:11, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

I did not realize that is where the tormented ghost appeared and i have been hit by the necros just did not think about that. Corrected the page now, thanks. I have been going through quarters adding and correcting things but i am a low level so i cannot explore dangerous areas well. --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 16:26, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

user account ~
I'm not abusing anything. I created and currently own the character Kvip, and do not wish for the information of the character to be posted.

There, check the comment on tibia.com for kvip. And I believe I was crath back when tibia wiki was on erig.net? I dont think i've ever set up an account on wikia.

It has been checked, thank you are sorry about the trouble. --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 05:03, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

house listing
Should we add non-player ownable houses to the lists? -- Sixorish 23:06, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

The idea is to include all significant buildings, i just forgot to add White Wave Cellar there. I figured either a building with an NPC or larger buildings deserve a page, but not smaller ones like a Mill. The NPC page itself can work in place of a building page (i.e. just mentioning the depot NPC not making a page for their whole depot), but that can change. --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 23:52, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

TibiaNation
Ok. I thought the person that edited my page was an admin and I was a bit upset because he removed it without any previous warning. I will do what you said. By the way, we already have contacted CipSoft and we are currently on the monitored fansites list. Thank you.--TibiaNation 08:53, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

I was just wondering why my account seems to not be autoconfirmed. I am trying to update a stub but can't do it as i am not able to upload pictures.
 * I was trying to upload a route to mino hell,with the maps, but was told i cannot upload pictures due to the fact that i am neither an autoconfirmed user, nor was I an admin, tester, etc. Could you shed some light on this issue for me?

Beejay answered your question on your user page --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 21:18, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

Shops
How/what do you do to make it easier to add information to the shops page? If you do anything. I'm finding that the bigger the page gets, the more difficult it is to find the right place for information. I'd appreciate any advice you have for me. beejay 13:59, April 27, 2010 (UTC)

I edit it in Notepad++, but any RTF or HTML editor works. The rows are all on one line (scrollable) so it is easy to see and not crowded like when editing it on the wiki. It also helps to memorize the alphabetical order of the cities when added NPCs who buy/sell so you do not have to always scroll up or down, also the cells will not always line up when there are longer entries in cells (i.e. cell: || - / - || ). --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 15:53, April 27, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you. I already have Notepad++ but I am quite unfamiliar with it so haven't used it much, but it is more helpful than Notepad, which was what I was using before. Is the next step for the shops page to add the amulets and rings? beejay 09:39, April 28, 2010 (UTC)

I use Notepad++ for many things, but its 'find' (ctrl+f) capability is much more helpful than notepad as it can do more advanced searches and replace text that is searched for. Any text editor (notepad, wordpad, word) can be used to edit the text and make it easier to see a whole row in Shops. Yes, adding any item that people normally buy/sell is good - i am not sure if there is a limit (e.g. rings, amulets, runes, equipment, etc.) One consideration is adding table of contents or pictures with the items names, but it is not necessary and may look messy or just added to the page width. --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 16:38, April 28, 2010 (UTC)

I do prefer Notepad++ for long pieces of text, never known how to make it easier to see long lengths of text with other programs. I made the tables for amulets and necklaces and rings just incase but I haven't gotten around to checking if they are correct. I'm not quite sure what the wanted end result of the shops page is, whether it is to list everything that can be bought and sold in a shop or the most popular bought/sold items. I think images would mean adding to the width, and when the next city appears in an update, that will be the limit to the width of the page. Although as you previously said, people already have to scroll on lower resolution screens. beejay 18:29, April 28, 2010 (UTC)

Chicken Edit
Hey, I was wondering if you might have made a typo somewhere in this edit, since you incremented the kills with 10 and the empty ones with 20.. ^^ Bennie (talk ~ fellows) ^^ 07:12, May 12, 2010 (UTC)

Not sure how i made that mistake, but thanks for catching it. Fortunately i still had the correct stats. --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 18:51, May 12, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for work on city streets!
Hiho, I just stumbled across your page on Fibula houses and streets and followed the links to house page of Carlin and other street pages. I just wanna say Thank you for your work, it is great someone takes the time to help people find their way around Tibia and find the NPCs they are looking for. Will there be pages like this for Thais and other cities, too? Gosh what would I have given for such a "road map" of Svargrond when I went there the very first time, in search of NPC Robert, mislead by unclear wiki info about his location... Made me curse at my screen for about half an hour ^^

In general, I would like to encourage the wiki team to add more detailed maps of places. Yalahar and ofc Zao lands still show a lot of "white spots" when it comes to maps.

Keep up the good work! =]

Barathorn 08:01, July 23, 2010 (UTC)

Hmm ok well its not my pics tho but since servers like to flash rares and things they have i dont see why they cant have there own picture place to put up boss kills, fun events etc...

---

Hmm with that you said there, im not really sure if you now said its ok to have the pics there or not, ofcurse i dont mean one person to post when they reach level 2 or something but more special advances/things achived such as hard quest pics, etc

those pics where of the person on premia thats the only one and first to reach 110/110 in stats which i myself have to say is quite special not many will even make it that far

CPL
Hey,

when you messaged me last time, i didn't saw you are in CPL :D Though i left Chimera 3 years ago, Rowane is still in there :D

If you ever need help on Tib.wiki again just throw me a message :) For the time being i'll try to contribute a bit more, now i got

the hang of it!

Ciao

Ok, cool. I have only been in CPL for a year although i have been in Chimera since it's existence. After Character World Transfer came about we lost a lot of members to Premia whom you may have seen. We are trying to revive CPL with new members, new guildhall: Dark Mansion, etc. More people are active around 20CET/14EST so come by for a chat. --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 18:02, August 3, 2010 (UTC)

About Tibiacz
Hello! I saw you take care of the deletion request, and i have 2 comments/questions:

1. 3 days ago, Bennie deleted Pltibia because do not longer exist ( 6:06, 2010 August 2 Bennie (Talk | contribs) deleted "PlTibia" ‎ (Unnecessary page: content was: ' {{Infobox_Fansite|List={{{1|}}}|GetValue={{{GetValue|}}} | name = plTibia | url = http://www.plTibia.com.pl | logo = | caption = |) ), but with Tibiacz you didnt delete, you just add the deprecated warning. So i ask, why one article was deleted and the other (very similar) was retained?

2. I understand why pages like Draken Chestplate must be retained, but i would like to know why pages of rumours must be retained too? (lettuce, etc) there is nothing about those items (only the name).

thanks for reading me :) &raquo; Sez ~ Talk &laquo; 19:39, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

The first thing is just no communication between DM and me about this, I would have deleted it. Well, I agree with DM's decision though, there is a difference: the one was supported and the other one wasn't. ^^ Bennie (talk ~ fellows) ^^ 20:19, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

For certain things we have rules and some things we just have to make a decision on and those vary with different people. As Bennie said a technical difference for the two fansites is that one was supported and the other was not, but i was not even aware Bennie has deleted the other one. I left Lettuce, Starfruit, and Hydra Meat because on the test server forum they said they did not have time to finish them and they may still be implemented. They could be deleted and recreated, but they could equally stay as they are now until they are implemented. --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 02:13, August 6, 2010 (UTC)

Isle of the Kings Library
I went through the library last night and the book is indeed The Bonelords Threat III and not The Bonelord Threat III like the first two in the series, unless it has already been fixed.

The You Cannot Even Imagine (Book) doesn't have a page, yet. I noticed it in the IotK yesterday, but I know I had read it before and was looking for it under a different name, but didn't have much success. If I don't run across it, I will add the book text once I get home. --Kharzad Ironfist 15:34, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

Ok, sorry i once again assumed they would not make small mistakes. I will correct my mistake then, until they fix theirs (Fall patch - unless that is what this was). --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 15:46, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

Spider Egg Spoiler
Hello DM,

In the Tools (Objects) page you can read the Spider Egg spoiler without any restraint, I hope you can (or any other contributor) fix it :)

http://tibia.wikia.com/wiki/Tools_(Objects) 22:10, October 16, 2010 (UTC)

Unfortunately there are quite a number of these problems (several other Objects pages too). The problem is the DPL software that creates the dynamic tables grabs all the information including spoilers and includes them when it makes the table. This has been discussed before if you care to search for it, but i do not recall any easy or simple solution except to remove DPL tables (but consider the reason to have DPL is that information is automatically added when a new item/object page is created). I have been absent the last few months due to my workload, perhaps another admin can add something else useful. --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 03:08, October 18, 2010 (UTC)

Dear DM

Interaction between NPCs and Item pages
Hey DM, how is it going? I just saw add items to Rock_In_A_Hard_Place and adding items with Template:Infobox_Item/Trades/Buy (and the Sell version). I kind of forgot what the goal was of this template, because I thought on all item pages, which you now added to this NPC page, this NPC would also appear as a vendor. So, for example, on Axe in the sell to list, Rock in a Hard Place would appear as NPC. The idea behind these templates is to save a lot of manual edits, isn't it? Can't we build a template which would be used on all item pages, which searches through all NPC pages to see if they sell or buy the item? If it's technically feasible I would say we should give it a try. -- Bennie (talk ~ fellows) 10:34, December 3, 2011 (UTC)

Hi Bennie, welcome back!

I think that was a general goal, but it didn't quite get finished. I am not even sure where we had those conversations. Right now on each item page there are the npcprice and npcvalue attributes which appear with these buy/sell templates. Cip changed most trade values to be the same price for all NPCs with a few exceptions, so presently i think we have to still list the items on the NPC page in these templates and only change the values if they differ from the npcprice/npcvalue. Between Sixorish and Daniel Letalis i thought they were working out a solution to put the NPC name on the item page, but not sure if this was completed. --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 14:05, December 3, 2011 (UTC)
