CitePostbag
Help me. ;-; 19:31, December 26, 2013 (UTC)
 * Speaking of which, the template should have a vardefine thingy like CitePodcast so that you can give the issue and it provides the title, issue and url. A bot would have to remove all the title and url parameters from articles... CiteGodLetter and CiteLore should also use this, but those are are used much less. 19:48, December 26, 2013 (UTC)
 * Meow? 12:56, December 30, 2013 (UTC)

 * Will a template like this do? 10:45, January 2, 2014 (UTC)

Let's steal more stuff from WP
Ya know how you want to remove navboxes from the mobile skin because of how huge they are? What about the stuff up top? I'm not sure if you've browsed WP on a mobile device, but when you come across those top-of-the-page templates, they are removed and replaced with "This page has some issues". Anyone who cares to see what those issues are can click those words and find the templates on their own separate page. This makes browsing on a phone much more convenient. We can't exactly just hide those templates as you plan to do with navboxes because they usually have important information (I'm thinking about templates like rare item, postbag, etc.). I'd love to be able to do exactly what WP does; however, I need to know if it's actually feasible. If you can actually write this script, that'd be awesome, and either you or I could write up a forum that everyone will nodoubtedly support. If you can't, is there anything else we could do? Or anyway we could get Wikia to help (if the reason is incompatibility, etc.)? 13:15, December 27, 2013 (UTC)

Common.js/geupdate,js

 * Note: This messages has also been posted to User talk:Joeytje50.

Hello Cam! User:Undamaged brought to our attention that the "Update price" button on the Exchange: pages were not providing the correct prices, as seen here. Assuming that the GE Graph API was being derpy again, we decided to check it against the in game GE. This lead to us finding that the thing was, in fact, pulling the incorrect data. However, checking the api directly, I found that it does have the correct price "1388102400000":31 for today. Confused, I figured I would check TyBot to ensure that it was still pulling the correct information, and it was. I am a complete novice at Javascript, so I was hoping you'd be able to look into this and fix it if possible. Thanks, 17:05, December 27, 2013 (UTC)
 * And this one is also posted to User talk:TyA ;)
 * I've fixed the bug. The problem was that it was going through, with   being a string of the name of the property of pricelist (if that makes any sense XD) which is not sorted by numerical value. That caused the last iteration of that loop not to be the actual most recent price (which it previously was though), so that was what broke it. I've fixed it to now look for the highest value for the UNIX timestamp on the json page. 02:34, December 29, 2013 (UTC)

Feedback script
I'd love to give some suggestions, but can you give me a rough outline of what you have planned already, including what you are considering. 18:57, December 31, 2013 (UTC)

File:11-07-09 01.06.39.png
Hi I just moved this file that was on your page of unlicensed files. It was actually an image of a Treasure Trail scan location and I renamed it to File:Scan clue Lumbridge Swamp Caves north-west of Tears of Guthix Cavern entrance.png. As far as I know there is no license for these images so I have not fixed the redlink, I thought you might want to remove this file from your list instead. Thanks, 21:07, January 1, 2014 (UTC)

You didn't do a full archive
Shame on you. 23:33, January 1, 2014 (UTC)
 * well then you wait until there's nothing you need to keep to archive@ 01:46, January 2, 2014 (UTC)

Treasure Trails/Guide/Scans page
Hi, I am having some problems with the map images on this page, they are getting cut off on the right hand side. Do you know how I can make these images display over the sidebar? Thanks, 18:28, January 3, 2014 (UTC)

re:anonexchange
I believe that was in the time of a proposal to remove the edit button from the Exchange pages for anons, or something. I don't really remember it that well, but I think what it did was that it was a thing on the notice templates that would only show up for anons, or something. I don't really remember it that well though. 19:50, January 3, 2014 (UTC)

Category:Parser function errors
Hi. For some reason, the MW messages that add that category are transcluding it onto non-mainspace pages even though the messages are using Mainonly to add the category. This is fixed with a null edit to the page. I'm stumped as to why it works that way, honestly... I've been cleaning up this category with the necessary null edits myself, but I also just asked Az if he wouldn't mind having his bot take of the null-editing as a part of its daily routine. That's literally all I know about the problem except for when these messages appear, but I'm fairly certain you'll know once you see the messages, so I don't think I need to explain that to you. Is this something you can look into/fix? :ɔ 14:59, January 6, 2014 (UTC)
 * More or less correct. The only detail you got a little off is that not every page was added right away. The cache seems to be taking its sweet time with this and adds maybe 50 to 100 pages a day or so. I'm hoping and assuming that once a page has been null edited to clear the category that it will never pop up again, but I can't say for sure. 15:09, January 6, 2014 (UTC)
 * So there's nothing we can do? No easy work around? :c 15:39, January 6, 2014 (UTC)

VE
It doesn't understand a lot of things. Like headers and reference tags or redirects. 00:11, January 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * No, I haven't. 00:17, January 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * Possibly this, where Leon adding to the conversation put an extra number/bullet at the top of the numbered/bulleted parts. And you would have to ask Leon if the change from bullets to numbers here was deliberate on his part or a product of the VE. 00:22, January 8, 2014 (UTC)

Archival
The forum references on here probably need your archiving magic. 12:22, January 8, 2014 (UTC)

CSS
Collapsible table-ception cells are white (ex: Template:Infobox Monster). Can you make them beige to match the rest of the table? 17:33, January 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2 more things:
 * What happened to the charm log script? All submissions for the past couple days don't seem to be using it.
 * Would you be against adding my forum to the site notice? Something along the lines of, "We're looking to start on a complete revamp of our strategy guides! If you have any ideas or suggestions, post them at Forum:Strategy pages brainstorm."
 * 17:41, January 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * Huh. It is working completely fine, but I haven't seen it actually being used by IPs... It works from both the monster page and the /Charm log page, so I have no idea why IPs have been been doing manual edits. I'll keep trying to find out why. Can we also set up an abuse filter to disallow non-autoconfirmed edits to charm log pages unless it's with the script? It's much more difficult to diagnosis vandalism when it's not done with the script. 17:53, January 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * Actually, I got it. The script isn't loading for IPs at all. I went incognito and clicked the submission form, it took me to the editor instead of displaying the js submission form. 17:55, January 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * Hi, it's been about two weeks since I asked about that template script, and I haven't heard anything from you about it since our S:C PM. I'd just like to know if you've looked into this idea any further; whether or not it's something I can look forward to having on the wiki one day. If for any reason you don't want to work on it, is there anyone else who maybe would? On the otherhand, if it's something we simply can't support having on the wiki, do you have any possible alternatives? I do understand you dislike using js on the mobile skin, but this might be a worthwhile use of it. I'm not trying to be a nag, and this is not a pertinent issue in any sense, so ETAs, etc. for anything don't matter to me. I just want to know if this proposal has any future whatsoever. 14:18, January 10, 2014 (UTC)

Sorry
I made a whole page where every ref is to the RSOF. 20:45, January 10, 2014 (UTC)

Finnish Rswiki CSS
My name is Henry and Im admin and bureaucrat at http://fi.runescape.wikia.com/wiki/

I was thinking of updating the wikias appearance. I have been chatting with editors and they told me to update the CSS. Tho, I dont know where I can find it in my wiki or if the page even exists. The page Im looking for is like this: http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css but I havent found it in my wikia.

I tried to update once, but it ended up with errors. I wish if you could add the code, or tell me how I do it. The point is to make the finnish version of the wiki same as the english version, but Im struggling.

Sincerely, HenDaBen

CiteTemplates
I've removed the parameters from invocations of the template, can you remove them from the actual source code? Everything except CiteGeneral and PlainCiteGeneral. 19:28, January 14, 2014 (UTC)
 * They're not protected, no. They're just stupidly complex, and I'd rather not deal with them. I already broke CitePostbag recently... I did fix it though, and now the links it creates take you not only to our page, but they bring you to the exact letter as well! Also, as long as you're tending to your talk page, you never responded about the feedback script :c 11:45, January 19, 2014 (UTC)

Switchinfobox
Hi,

I'm trying to add a SwitchInfobox on my wiki( runescapefanfiction ) just like the one onthis wiki, but whenever I use the template, it displays all the items in the template rather than the item which is linked to the button that I click on and also the loading button doesn't dissapear after it has finished loading and a whole bunch of empty paragraphs appear out of nowhere, like on this page for example. I've used Matthew2602's javascript and css code for the switch infobox on my wiki(which is here(js) and here), I've also made sure that the script and css pages are imported using the importArticles method(which I don't really understand how to use) in the common.js page. I think for some reason javascript is not working on my wiki, or maybe I'm not importing the scripts properly on my wiki. Do you know how I can check to see if this really is the issue and how I can fix this?

Thanks

i've been meaning to tell you this for a while but I keep forgetting
I'm totally on board with having our CSS in LESS even without mediawiki support for it. If you ever desire help with that, I can totally help you. 08:58, January 20, 2014 (UTC)

RS:AD
You should remove the ajax refresh... I mean it doesn't even work... DPL is cached. 22:45, January 20, 2014 (UTC)

Template:Switch inline
I'm having an extremely tough time trying to figure this template. Could you maybe improve the documentation and have some really simply usage examples? Also, can you move the inner workings of the template out of your userspace? I copied the code into a template namespace page, but that broke it for reason... 19:13, January 21, 2014 (UTC)
 * Okay, that's understandable. But how come it seems to work on the template page itself, even if not ready for deployment? 20:00, January 21, 2014 (UTC)
 * That's what I get for being lazy and using subst: 20:17, January 21, 2014 (UTC)
 * So we shouldn't be using switch inline yet? I guess I can bug joey to fix it more. Also, can you still write some usage examples. Also, the inline will be able to change two different parameters at once, right? Like, if I wanted two parameters in one infobox to change but nothing else, I could use switch inline and it will change both parameters simultaneously? Also, I keep typing it out as "paramaters"; what the fuck is wrong with me? 13:03, January 22, 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, it is! And it also answers my last question. So can I not use it yet? Because I had a pretty big plan for pet pages. 13:18, January 22, 2014 (UTC)

Re:VE
Ty! I got helped about that.. Now... it automatically goes to VE. Which is a great help! 12:49, January 22, 2014 (UTC)
 * Sorry... my memory is also quited flawed :P I think they may well have been "intentionally". But how it's now, is the way it's supposed to be. Hope that helped? :3 13:05, January 22, 2014 (UTC)
