Hiscore
Template:Hiscore, Had been broken for months now and no one has looked in to it. It's a very usefull tool in the calculator world. It was made by Catcrewser, a user that has been offline for a very long time. So yea, what do you think, should some one look in to it?

How is it broken? It only prints 2 and 4 as levels. -- 22:58, October 30, 2010 (UTC)

#var
Ok, i done quite some work with coding on this wiki, but there is one thing i don't understand:. How does it work? is it some kind of but a little different or something? 15:00, October 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * sets up a variable with the name being VariableName and having a value of InitalValue. To change the variable name, you would use . Then if you were to use the variable you have created you would use , and it will use the value of the variable. At least this is what I got from reading this from Q.  02:55, November 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Look at mw:Extension:VariablesExtension, it helps. 10:17, November 1, 2010 (UTC)

PAGENAME
Code for PAGENAME to make is subst the FIRST word of the pagename, and the link it to that metal bar. For example: Metal pickaxe to Metal bar Thanks, 13:17, November 1, 2010 (UTC)

There's no such parser function/magic word listed on the MediaWiki site (see mw:Help:Magic words). Sorry ! 13:27, November 1, 2010 (UTC)

Following
How you you follow a talk page, or for that matter, any page? Cartermac4 18:15, November 1, 2010 (UTC)Cartermac4
 * Two ways: click "Follow" at the top that has a gold star to the left or if you have a little bit of experience with URLs, you can add "&action=watch" to the end of any page's URL. 18:19, November 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't see the follow button. Cartermac4 20:34, November 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * You are probably on the new skin and not Monaco. On the new skin, find this and click it: http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/2287/followd.png it should be on all follow-able pages. 21:01, November 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * It says I'm following. But when I go on my user page and click followed pages, it doesn't come up. Cartermac4 21:06, November 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Special:Following, that page? 21:15, November 1, 2010 (UTC)

Changing Avatars
I'm having an annoyingly hard time changing my avatar picture. When I go into preferences, there isn't an option. When I click my avatar and select "Change", there's only an option to actually change it *half* the time. When I do manage to get the box where I can browse for a new pic, it doesn't save after I click Save. Grr. 20:53, November 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Uh... most likely there is nothing we can do. You can tell Wikia though. 21:20, November 1, 2010 (UTC)
