Profile
Hello, i want to delete my profile and can't find how to do that. Can someone help? GVytautas (talk) 12:11, November 30, 2013 (UTC)
 * Do you mean like the fact that you exist? An admin can delete your user pages and lock your ID indefinitely, if that's what you want. -- 13:48, November 30, 2013 (UTC)
 * If you instead want to completely disable your account Wikia-wide, see Special:Contact. 19:42, January 27, 2014 (UTC)

Removing some content from image pages
Recently while recategorizing some images in Category:Location images, I cam across some stuff that was on the image pages. Basically, it's == Category: == what happens when you preselect a category from the dropdown menu on Special:Upload. Would it be possible for someone to use their bot to remove these please? It serves no purpose, and it wouldn't be too much work for the bot to remove them. 07:44, December 3, 2013 (UTC)
 * Also, in addition, could some please remove Category:Location images from File:Historical Scaperune image.png and replace it with Category:Images in other Realms? Thanks. I'd do it myself, but it's locked for some reason. 03:49, December 4, 2013 (UTC)

Beastiary work
I have been starting to do some work on the beastiaries recently, and was wondering on what to do with monsters that are no longer present. Monsters such as the Turkey and Saradominist gatherer which currently still hold a place on the Levels 1 - 10 page, however are no longer attackable in the game. Do they stay on the Beastiary, or are they removed?

If they are removed then I have no problem, however if they are required to stay I believe it may be benaficial to add a 0 combat page, as there are many which are starting to expand the length of Levels 1 - 10 quite dramatically. Along with the reversion to 138 combat the pages are only going to get longer if the current boundries persist.

 * I'd say remove anything that is no longer attackable otherwise it's just confusing.
 * You also might be interested in Forum:My database code is finally ready. It's a bit technical if you're not familiar with javascript, but the aim of it is to convert the bestiary into a searchable database. If you talk to Yitzi, he'd be happy to share his ideas about how to improve it.

Droprate template
Hello one and all, I need some help with a template I want to use on all my impling logs.

This template would involve an edited version of DropsLine as far as I'm aware, although it might be easier to create it from scratch. It would be called like this in one of the logs:

User:Everystat13/Impling logs/DroprateHead

Item

(eg. Air rune)

This would make a line in a table similar to a drop table:

It calculates the percentage by dividing the amount with the total and multiplying by 100, colors the cell accordingly with the same colors found in DropsLine (for instance, 25% to 50% green, 20% to 25% yellow, etc.) and then puts that percentage in the cell at the end.

I am not a template handyman, so if anyone could make this for me, that would be greatly appreciated.
 * Never mind, Joeytje had a template that worked well enough for me.

Impling loot submission template
My first template isn't even done yet and I have a second request already!

I want a template that does something similar to Charm log header, but with an interface that is similar to Calculator:Prayer. Here, someone would select the impling type in a drop-down menu, type the drop and the amount of items received from that drop, click submit, and a line would be added to a table I would have at the bottom of User:Everystat13/Impling logs. This way, anyone can submit impling data, I would organise the data every so often into the correct pages and delete the contents of the table, and in this way we can get closer to a calculator as suggested here. Thanks in advance!
 * Never mind, Joeytje said it's too hard to make this :p


 * It's not that hard. As a rough idea:

// create the form var $table = $( ' ' ) .append(       $( '<tbody' )            .append( $( ' ' )                   .append(                        $( ' ' )                            .append( // dropdown goes here ),                       $( ' ' )                            .append( // item input goes here ),                       $( ' ' )                            .append( // number input goes here ),                       $( ' ' )                            .append( // submit goes here )

)           )    );

// insert the table into the page $( '#imp-log-form' ).empty.append( $table );

// on submitting the form // assuming the submit button has id="imp-submit" $( '#imp-submit' ).on( 'click', function {

var data = { imp: 'type', item: 'item', number: 'number' },       page = data.imp, template = '';

// from here we use ajax to append the template to a subpage // one subpage for each type of imp // each subpage is then transcluded onto the main page

} );
 * This will need various checks for making sure the info submitted won't cause an error and it will require policing of the submitted info to filter out any vandalism, errors not caught by the script, etc. but it's not as hard as you might think.

Factual correction
When discussing certain things, which cultural explanation do we use?

- For instance, I edited a page to say that the floor that is level with the ground (ground floor) is equal to that of the name, the first floor, whilst (as far as I know), in Britain their understanding is Ground floor, then the floor above is the first floor, which I have a hard time understanding, and I'm sure they do the same to my interpretation.

So which do we use? OR How else can we resolve this?
 * We use British spelling and British flooring conventions. You can check out this page for more information. When editing articles, we sometimes use Template:Floor or Template:FloorNumber to help people understand the British flooring system. 15:00, April 5, 2014 (UTC)
