Whitelist
Hello, I have been now and then been updating the Tibia wiki during the last years, but still I am not "whitelisted". What does it take to become "whitelisted"?

(Jag är också svensk)

Lukotibak (talk) 20:49, August 19, 2015 (UTC)

Hey Lukotibak. Very few people have been whitelisted, although there's no reason why you can't be whitelisted. Unfortunately it seems all JavaScript files are locked until Wikia deal with their recent security issue. All edits, even from new editors, will become trusted after a few days; the warning just allows us to warn the user about possible vandalism that hasn't been dealt with, giving us time to deal with it. -- Sixorish (talk) 01:13, August 20, 2015 (UTC)

Maybe we can disable (put comment tags around it or something) the warning javascript when it's possible to edit js again? The vandals have stopped for some months. -- Bennie (talk ~ fellows) 09:07, August 20, 2015 (UTC)

Outfits 10.82
Hey Bennie!

I just came back home and was planning to add new outfits to outfiter, but as I could notice in the recent activity, you've been taking care of the new sprites just few minutes ago, so to avoid double work, may I ask you what else are you going to add?

Thanks,

Cauli92 (talk) 21:01, September 30, 2015 (UTC)

Not the outfits or mounts (you can do them), only the new items I could find. Which is only a 52 frames animated mask. Amazing, I think CIP never made an item with so many frames. -- Bennie (talk ~ fellows) 21:03, September 30, 2015 (UTC)

Yeah indeed, pretty impressive! But it wasn't made by Cip :P

These two items are obviously fansite prizes and I'm sure Hunter can verify which fansites they belong to on their internal forum - I'm too lazy to browse through all contests from last months :D

Thanks for the info concerning mounts! I was wondering if you could also make the sprite changes page? If it's necessary(more than few items), of course.

Cauli92 (talk) 21:13, September 30, 2015 (UTC)

Ah, you are probably right. Well, it's done. I managed to move frame 45 and 46 by one pixel first, had to redo those. Now I'm seeing moving stuff everywhere, but it's probably in my head.

I'll take a look if there are sprite changes. -- Bennie (talk ~ fellows) 21:29, September 30, 2015 (UTC)

Wow, do you mean to tell me you were cutting them manually one by one? I can't see any errors concerning the sprite btw.

Code review
Hey Bennie,

Just a reminder that when we change code in any MediaWiki: JavaScript pages as you did on MediaWiki:Custom Scripts/VandalWarn.js, we need to click the shiny yellow review status button so that Wikia can make sure we didn't do something crazy. -- Sixorish (talk) 03:38, April 12, 2016 (UTC)

RE: AF
Hello! Done. Let me know if they will break thro this filter. http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/mlp/images/6/6f/FANMADE_Luna_S1_flying.gif Kopcap94  18:00, 11/5/2016
 * Hello again. That was interesting since filter catch edit via test. Probably they just break through due to some problems with some special page. Changed filter to match something else. Should be fine for now. If they will do it again - let me know! http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/mlp/images/6/6f/FANMADE_Luna_S1_flying.gif Kopcap94  20:06, 16/5/2016

Gaming footer
Hi, Bennie!

A user recently nominated Tibia for inclusion in our gaming footer program. Would you be interested?

Best regards,

Raylan13 ( talk ) 17:55, May 20, 2016 (UTC)
 * I'll add it momentarily ;) No worries about other wikis - participants just have to do what they're already doing, namely being a welcoming presence on their sites! Raylan13 ( talk ) 15:54, May 21, 2016 (UTC)

Dread Intruder
Hello, I saw your editing on Dread Intruder "adding bestiarytext and immunities from tibia.com". It seems the description about immunities on tibia.com is wrong. I kill them every day with stoneshower runes. They are definitely not immun to earth damage. Gaasmoos (talk) 17:55, June 27, 2016 (UTC)

That is strange but possible. Maybe it's best if to email support@tibia.com so they can fix the website. You can revert my edits back to what you know is correct from your experience. -- Bennie (talk ~ fellows) 18:43, June 27, 2016 (UTC)

Bot
Hey Bennie,

Are you using scripts/programs to make edits under User:469Bot? If so, how are you doing it? -- Sixorish (talk) 05:09, June 29, 2016 (UTC)

Hey Sixorish,

Yes, I downloaded a program called AutoWikiBrowser. After setting up tibia.wikia.com as wiki in the preferences and logging in with username and account, you can make a list of pages on which you want to do edits, e.g. all pages in a certain category. Afterwards you can select what kind of find and replace you want to do, since you can use regular expressions this is quite powerful.

I also noticed it automatically does some cleaning up, such as changing dates formatting. Right now I use it semi-automatically, by manually checking and accepting every edit, but it can be set up as a bot.

What did you use for User:SixBot? -- Bennie (talk ~ fellows) 10:39, June 29, 2016 (UTC)

I just wrote JS scripts that communicated with the API. -- Sixorish (talk) 03:27, June 30, 2016 (UTC)

Gewen
What are your reasons for thinking Gewen is male? He/she looks emphatically female to me... -- Wouterboy (talk) 22:54, July 28, 2016 (UTC)

Just the parameter gender which said male, but the outfit looks amazon/female like, indeed. I'll change it. -- Bennie (talk ~ fellows) 07:49, July 29, 2016 (UTC)

Template:Infobox Book
The book infobox template contains an error, apparently. It doesn't accept the input for the author parameter. Could you take a look at it? -- Wouterboy (talk) 16:18, July 31, 2016 (UTC)

Oops, thanks for spotting this mistake, I fixed it. -- Bennie (talk ~ fellows) 16:53, July 31, 2016 (UTC)

Awesome, thank you! -- Wouterboy (talk) 17:29, July 31, 2016 (UTC)

Portable infobox conversion project
Heya Bennie! Man, I gotta tell you I've been doing portable infobox conversions all around Wikia, and I've never seen anything like the organisational skill you've been showing off here. Seriously, very well done.

If you'd like some help finishing up the rest, I'm happy to offer my services. Maybe it would speed things up for you if I did rough drafts and you took care of approvals? I don't want to interfere with your process, but I know how tedious it can be doing the basic coding of these things. So if I can be of assistance, please don't hesitate to ask. — CzechOut 16:38, August 15, 2016 (UTC)

Hey CzechOut,

Thanks for your praise. I think I have done the bulk of the conversion I wanted to do, there are some infoboxes left which already look quite ok on mobile devices and it is therefore not so important that they are converted. My main reason for the conversion project was to have one uniform design for all infoboxes and get rid of some old html tables which looked bad on small screens.

But I will keep your offer in mind if at some point in time I decide to convert the rest. Thanks! -- Bennie (talk ~ fellows) 07:15, August 21, 2016 (UTC)

RE: Thanks
I certainly hope so! Let me know if the issue isn't fixed within a few hours (due to caching) and I can have another look. Mark ( talk ) 20:40, August 22, 2016 (UTC)

Help, site broken
Hello Bennie,

Could you check this section, its broken, I don't know how to properly report it.

Well, it wont let me to send you the link, its the Quest list

tibia wikia com wiki /Quest

Hope you can fix it please

Thanks a lot

Oops, I broke it yesterday. Fixed it now, thanks for letting me know! -- Bennie (talk ~ fellows) 17:12, November 29, 2016 (UTC)

Help, site broken
Hello Bennie

Thanks a lot for fixing the last link I found another one broken

tibia.wikia com/wiki/World_Quests

Thanks for your amazing quickly solution! :D

Thanks for noticing again; it has been fixed. -- Wouterboy (talk) 13:49, December 2, 2016 (UTC)

Spirithunters Slime
Does the Squidgy Slime that gets triggered to appear during the Spirithunters Quest give any experience? -- Wouterboy (talk) 10:47, December 27, 2016 (UTC)

Dunno, I didn't test this myself. I don't think so though, this squidgy slime just replaces all instances where a slime is summoned. -- Bennie (talk ~ fellows) 11:05, December 27, 2016 (UTC)

I know, but if it does yield experience, we need two Squidgy Slime pages. If it doesn't, then it is clear that Cipsoft treats summoned creatures and triggered creatures the same and that Angry Demons therefore logically shouldn't yield experience either. -- Wouterboy (talk) 15:19, December 27, 2016 (UTC)

Melting Frozen Horror Loot

Hey Bennie, I saw that you edited the Melting Frozen Horror loot recently and there is Icy Culottes added in there. I was wondering if you have any proof of that or anything because while I heard it mentioned somewhere, I have yet to see anything myself. Just wondering if it is just the rumor written down or there is proof I don't know about. Thanks!
