Instructions
Welcome to the RuneScape Wiki User Help page. This page is here to offer a central location for those who are participating with the development of this wiki to make general requests for help. For admin help, go here.
Note to users: Remove requests once they have been fully dealt with. Archive those that have a notable discussion.
Note for requesters: Once a solution has been presented and implemented, please add a comment signifying completion, if the request hasn't already been archived. This is to help other users know when to archive completed requests.
- Coding help. Requesting help with writing templates, making a nice user page, or any questions on writing wiki-code can be asked here and users will help to the best of their ability.
- Requests for non-administrative actions. If help is required with an action (such as moving a page), asking users here for help with that action is acceptable.
- Questions on how the wiki works. All the policies and processes in use on the RuneScape Wiki may seem a little overwhelming at first. If you need help in understanding any of the policies, or more in depth instructions on a process, asking here is a good start.
- Other questions to the users of the wiki. - While the Yew Grove is often a better place, a simple question may be asked here for a quick response.
- An all-in-one place to put things. Many of the Wiki's procedures are lesser-known, so putting a note here is a good way to do something if the correct procedure is not known.
- Requests for actions involving administrator tools. Please use Admin requests for such requests.
- Larger discussion with other users on policies or other wide-ranging actions. The Yew Grove is a more suitable location to discuss larger changes to the Wiki's policies, procedures and high-use templates.
- General chat (about RuneScape or not). General chat about RuneScape (or an off-topic subject) should be taken to individual user talk pages, or article talk pages when applicable.

Quest numbers
I noticed a few odd things with the numbering of quests.
The List of quest release dates shows 181 quests, and Elder Kiln is listed as #181, which matches the number it has on its own page. However, Within the Light is #156 on its own page and #155 on the list, because the list removed the number from Unstable Foundation. There are many other quests that had their numbers removed, and I think that aside of this causing a lot of trouble changing the pages of all quests that have been release since, it is also incorrect.
A good example is Recipe for Disaster. This was a special quest released as the 100th quest, and the page still says it is the 100th quest even though its number has been changed to #97 because one of the earlier quests had been removed, and two are no longer considered to be quests. In my opinion removing quest number 4 does not turn quest number 5 into 4, it just means that quest number 4 no longer exists in the game.
Either way a lot of quests have been incorrectly numbered. Either the lower level ones if we do change the numbering with each removed quest, or the higher level ones because of the removal of Unstable Foundation and/or Learning the Ropes.

Kalphite Queen/Strategies problem
I went to the Kalphite Queen/Strategies page and it has been gutted from what it used to be. Large, useful sections are completely gone, including but not limited to the solo section. The last most-useful version seems to be the 17:08, July 19, 2012 version; see http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Kalphite_Queen/Strategies?action=history. Someone should check things out and maybe revert it if that's the right course. Inelcirc (talk) 19:37, September 8, 2012 (UTC)
