Talk:EZ Server Wiki

Arthon, I see you added the T5 expedition back to the main page - is it back up? (I haven't played in probably 6 months, when Darpey is on, it's my brother or guildies)

Also, due to the still relatively low number of editors for this wiki, and the large number of pages, I thought maybe using the main page's (EZ_Server_Wiki) "Talk" page to communicate across editors on big picture wiki issues would work perhaps better than on individual pages. Plus it won't clutter up the EZ forum with things that only 3-4 people care about.

Kruciel, glad to have you on board :) also I see you attempting to use consistent formatting, which is awesome :)

Yeah, he's been rearranging some of my mess, I'll get the hang of it eventually

Honestly, it had been bugging me so bad how much wrong info was in t9 portion for a long time, that was what pulled me here finally =P

--Kruciel (talk) 23:50, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

I take a break and you guys go hyper. Thats awesome! Glad someone got T9 as I haven't spent enough time there. If you have any questions feel free to hit me up, or just be bold with it.

Honestly, I don't see myself doing Tier 2 anytime soon, but I'll try and get the missing screenshot of the Charm Upgrades, Zerka, HG's chest, and Ancient Willowisp tomorrow. I'll probably just do an update to the Dragon Class stuff without screenshots. But like I said, going to bed too tired. Also, if someone with access to the Main Page could add Sunderock Springs (Tier 10) I'm not going to post anything in it for a while, out of respect for others. For some of us, exploring it first is the most enjoyable thing ever (obviously I believe in sharing info or I wouldn't be here, but I also find running around a new zone without a clue exhilarating), but I can get it started with some Names and get the basic layout started for later.

Can't say I know if T5 expedition is back or not, thought it was an oversight lol, if you see me on, it's my buddy playing, he's been trying to get master essences forever, I haven't played in ages, just was tinkering with formatting and stuff I knew that could be tweaked.

PS - Is there an easy way to reply on here? I just did edit at the top and put it there....

Just have to click the bottom at the Edit box and type =) and as Darpey pointed out to me, using the squiggly looking button second from the right will put your signature in for you.

--Kruciel (talk) 19:21, 22 October 2015 (UTC)

Added Sunderock Springs page, if anything else needs to be changed, let me know. If you guys can start adding Categories to pages you modify, it will give us another means of finding information, not a big deal, but maybe something that will be found useful.

There surely is lots of consistency things that can still be done, we'll eventually get there. I tweaked the T7 boss pages to be setup essentially the same. For stuff like Zerka, I'm wondering if we should include the spawn tips on the Zerka page too or maybe even only have tips like that on the individual mob pages, having duplicate data in multiple places sucks, I know I created the mess with spells, but couldn't come up with a good dynamic way of having a singular list that would display only appropriate info on each zone and class page. If anyone has super wiki and/or web skills, by all means, fix er up.

With T10, I want to make sure that Hate's on board with the amount of information that we put out soon after release. I can email him, or any of you can ask - but want to make sure that we don't put "spoilers" in the first amount of time breaking into T10, and I'm not sure what the balance is of "spoilers" vs. not

--Darpey (talk) 20:17, 22 October 2015 (UTC)

I only intend on adding screenshot of spells and things like boss names etc. Not spawn mechanics or spoilers just yet. I uncovered quite a few in the final beta test =p

--Kruciel (talk) 20:20, 22 October 2015 (UTC)

I'm sure you did - I don't play on Darpey and haven't for a while (although I probably will once T10 is out) but I was looking over my brother's shoulder as he was playing Darpey, and saw you spent quite a bit of time there during Beta. Yeah, I'm sure a proper map and spells would be fine, spawn mechanics not. I'll check with Hate, or direct him to this thread and have him put in his word

--Darpey (talk) 20:22, 22 October 2015 (UTC)

I agree on T10, although info spoiled on the boards I would say is fair game, people are going to find that just as easy (or easier) than on the wiki.

--Arthon (talk) 20:28, 22 October 2015 (UTC)

I'm fine with posting T10 gear/spells/whatever. My only request is that you avoid mechanics for a bit (month or so) and only post what you have unlocked. Darpey and Kruciel do have #fi access (finally fixed btw, thanks to Kruciel's diligence). So if you only own Pants of the Angry Gnome and Sleeves of the Angry Gnome, I would like to not see the entire set submitted by you. :-)

Temporarily changed the front wiki page to have a top link to the three Halloween articles (including forum) - feel free to change the layout if you can think of a cleaner way to show it. *shrug*

--Darpey (talk) 14:28, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

Removed the line "Any changes are greatly appreciated, and this wiki is a community effort from the players of EZServer. To sign up for an account: Click Here" and added the last bit "To sign up for an account: Click Here" To the previous paragraph to save space.

This line was largely put in place to encourage wiki participation, which we now have. I think consolidating these sentences can improve the look of the front page IMO

--Darpey (talk) 14:58, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

Darpey, funny, I was thinking about tweaking those lines earlier this morning myself. Separate topic, we should clean up these talk pages periodically, we have lots of chatter now showing up on them some of which is pointless to continue keeping.

--Arthon (talk) 16:11, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

Yeah - it's too bad there's not a built-in better way to do this - or even just "pages" to break up the large amount of text. I'm sure there's an extension for it. The individual page talk pages could probably stay indefinitely, but this MAIN page might need to be cleaned. That or we could just leave it a huge block of text and scroll to the bottom :/

--Darpey (talk) 16:43, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

Topic test

Hopefully this doesn't break anything or do something weird.

Well, looks like we could break it down into topics, that could help a bit. --Arthon (talk) 19:14, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

On some wiki software with enough topics, 3+ I think, it adds a contents menu. That could be useful for organizing it. --Leis (talk) 06:00, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
