User talk:The Mol Man


 * Rules
 * 1) If you neglect to make a new header when you post a new message, I will make one for you and it will be stupid; also, you will have no right to revert it
 * 2) If you post first or any other ordinal, your message will become a subsection of the section "I'm a loser"

Loser

Wtf
Look at Lowerniel Drakan. The references are VERY broken. Compare the source to the actual article and the reflist... it's ridiculous. What the hell happened? O_o I fear other pages may be affected like this as well... 17:57, January 15, 2014 (UTC)
 * Look at it! The references are broken and some are simply absent from the reflist. Also, they are randomised. For instance, if sentence A has ref 1 and sentence B, five sections ahead, has ref B then it's something like ref 2 appearing next to sentence A and sentence B having nothing at all. 18:03, January 15, 2014 (UTC)
 * CitePostbag rollback seems to have fixed it. Whatever the hell was wrong with that coding, it's very very strange. 18:07, January 15, 2014 (UTC)

GEP v. GEPrice
Just wondering why you change it to GEPrice. Preference? 22:34, January 15, 2014 (UTC)
 * Noted. Thanks. 22:45, January 15, 2014 (UTC)

I Will Try Airuts
Alright, Mol. My membership subscription just ran out though, and I'll record the kills per hour when I resubscribe. Neutralino (talk) 20:24, January 17, 2014 (UTC)

re:Lookbehinds in JS
Yeah JS is nub and doesn't support lookbehinds. After a short bit of googling I found this, but then you'd need to inject JS. So, in short, there's no lookbehinds in JS, you're just gonna have to do something like  and then replace that with   (so, just match it like a normal string, and then replace the matched string with group 1). 16:39, January 18, 2014 (UTC)

Re:Template:Invlink
Okay, that makes sense. A lot of places I had seen before separated with a space but I'm well good adapting.

Main problem I see with using the template is that it needs some work, because not all items have the same name for the inventory picture, and we also don't always want the link text to be the full item name. I'm fine doing either way. So for now I think using the template requires enough exceptions that I will just stick to |link=.

The story: After seeing a lot of stranded quest items, I wanted to make navboxes, and I was talking to Cook who said it would a good idea to make them for entire quests (Npcs, items, music, etc). It seems to work pretty well for something like Template:Carnillean Rising so I might keep doing that for more quests.

If you have topics that you would like me to make, I can definitely try. Mostly just been sticking to stuff I've recently done in game though so I sort of know what I'm doing.

20:02, January 18, 2014 (UTC)
 * If you make a list of navboxes you want me to look over/edit manually, I would be totally okay going through it. All my edits are manual anyway 21:24, January 18, 2014 (UTC)
 * While you're at it see if you can mess with Template:Chatl to add similar functionality 21:43, January 18, 2014 (UTC)

Re: CSS (2) & CiteTemplates
The header template thing is something that should be addressed in my opinion, but not something that I think should be done with js. It's extremely difficult to test mobile browser js and there's a problem with cross-device testing. It's not like I can just download another browser to test things in safari on my android phone for example. I also don't know which phones/mobile browsers are targeted by wikia's mobile site so don't know what can/will go wrong.

I will however, have a chat with User:Mira84 to find out as much as possible about implementing such an idea. If it can be done server side (I guess enwiki does it that way) it stops me having to support it myself and I can complain to someone when it breaks instead of not having a clue how to fix it.

I'll fix the templates up soon as I get time (I just got back after a week and am tending to my talk page lest I forget things). I assume they're protected or something?


 * I wanted to emulate wikimedia's latest update to their feedback extension
 * Did you find what you were looking for? (Y/N)
 * Do you have any further comments? ...Enter text here...
 * With various things that have cropped up and various other projects that I've taken on (far too many as usual), it's been pushed to a bit of a back burner for the moment. I may eventually try and learn php for creating an extension for it which would be so much better.


 * And I'll go disable the RS:AD refresh now.


 * Just spoken to Mira, he likes the enwiki problem template thing, so that's a step in the right direction. It's in their roadmap to discuss with the design teams, which will take a while but it'll happen (hopefully).
 * The switch-inline isn't actually ready for deployment. You'll notice I never started moving things over to using the new switch infobox template and never moved the switch inline template. It's because Joey discovered a XSS weakness in it which we patched but not on the version here afaik. Last I heard he was developing an extensiony-thing to do it properly as verbatim isn't really a good way of doing it. I'll have to ask him how he got on with it.


 * It works, but it still has the weakness. Also, you copied switch content over wrong.


 * And cite templates have been de accessdate-d.


 * Template:Switch inline/example has 5 switches within it, hopefully that's something like the example you were looking for?

I hate you

 * I have no clue who that is. I also doubt he'll know who "The Mole Man" is. The first two sentences in my sandbox say that you shouldn't edit it. Maybe I need to make the font bigger.... 16:33, January 20, 2014 (UTC)
 * But if you really want to... I guess I'll say hi next time I see someone like that.  16:33, January 20, 2014 (UTC)
 * There's a certain forum that I made almost 4 years ago that you should read. 16:37, January 20, 2014 (UTC)

RE:Warning vandals
Shouldn't that be listed under usage on the templates' pages? Or am I missing something somewhere? 21:38, January 20, 2014 (UTC)

Re:Interface
Why, thanks. Eyeballing over, it looks good, but I'll give it a more thorough read later. Do note that you're asking me in the middle of my exam week. ;) 20:24, January 21, 2014 (UTC)

Re: AmauriceBot
You don't need to worry about notifying me. The az and ty bots are the main bots for updating exchange prices. My bot just acts as a backup in case of failure of the other bots.

When new items turn up in the Exchange: namespace, my bot will automatically add to its list (providing the name matches the name the official RS site has used). However, if the name changes, then my bot will write a message to its log. I simply check these for possible vandalisms, and if okay, update the expected results.

Note, my bot will also write log entries for new items that do not match the official RS site names. This catches the occasional case where people have copied another Exchange: page and forgotten to update the ItemId.

So just notifying az and ty is fine. 13:35, January 22, 2014 (UTC)

Universal drops
Regarding this, according to the Divine tears page itself, they are dropped by "any creature that drops summoning charms", which'd land them in the same category as spirit gems. IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 18:28, January 22, 2014 (UTC)

Loot from 1 hour of Airuts
I killed 81 of them and amassed a profit of 2.36 million. This includes one scale. Looks like you're the better airut culler! Neutralino (talk) 21:31, January 23, 2014 (UTC) Mostly the herbs and rune items, and the nature, death, and blood runes. Oh yeah, and the bars too. The bones themselves amounted to over 900k, although that's moot because frost dragon bones are worth more. These are the normal drops. Airuts, however, are the most common non-boss droppers of sirenic scales, so I think you should take that into consideration. Neutralino (talk) 21:43, January 23, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Special Voyages
I just figured nobody had uploaded a picture of Terracotta yet, and thus it hadn't been added to the template. Thanks for adding it; I find dealing with images much more annoying than textual information. Huzzah for the new beta, and several stocked rerolls. If only I remembered what I could gather data on during this beta... Gathering POP voyage/crew probabilities seems futile due to the large number of (expected/assumed) hidden parameters. IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 19:09, January 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * Well, yes, I'm sure there are many things that gathering data about would be beneficial. However, I seem to fail recalling anything at this time; other than looting impling jars. I'm not sure how useful that data would be, there might be other more important things to work on (first). IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 19:13, January 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, but do you mean this? Perhaps if boredom strikes I could gather more data on the matter. I'd love to do the same for a Crystal triskelion, but I'm 1 fragment piece short, and those things are utterly rare. I could grind Jadinko males for another month and not get that third piece... IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 16:28, January 25, 2014 (UTC)
 * Apart from a handful of dailies, I was at dwarf traders for all of 98-99 Thieving. And no luck. Received a few Hard clues (which I dropped immediately anyhow), and not a single Elite clue. My luck must absolutely suck (no surprise). I was hoping I could gather data on something new, but I'll take a crack at Crystal chests without row if I can't find/think of anything better. IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 16:38, January 25, 2014 (UTC)
 * Thinking about it, I'd really really love to get to do the Triskelion xD ... Perhaps I should go grind dwarf traders first. Otherwise, both Soul Wars and Barbarian Assault gamble options seem interesting, although as you say, how many people will be interested in the data... There're also way too many different clue rewards to gather data on those with any form of efficiency or significant results. IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 16:57, January 25, 2014 (UTC)

Charm logs
Is there anyway I could get you to make the Charm: pages for Category:Needs Charm Log, specifically Stick and Zilyana? 05:08, January 27, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Superior reefwalker cape
Sure! I'm not very familiar with editing/working around this wiki, so you're welcome to take an image of the cape. My ign is "Artemi s" sans quotations. There's an update at the moment, I'll catch you after? ArtemisDusk (talk) 15:13, January 27, 2014 (UTC)

That's fine, I'll be around for about two hours. --ArtemisDusk (talk) 15:17, January 27, 2014 (UTC)

I'm a disaster
Could you maybe re-do Dual wield? I keep making it more and more messy. I feel like you could do it better with your extensive knowledge of wiki syntax. --

Yeah
That's probably better 16:38, January 28, 2014 (UTC)

Such a beautiful equation and you ruin it by using imperial units :c 18:54, January 28, 2014 (UTC)
 * But cm gives a bigger number, and bigger = better surely 18:56, January 28, 2014 (UTC)
 * You are completely right. 18:59, January 28, 2014 (UTC)
 * B-b-but you can't use infinity like that. 19:01, January 28, 2014 (UTC)
