01:02.19 | Mikk | hai! |
01:02.25 | Charitwo | hello |
01:02.25 | infobot | hola |
01:02.31 | Mikk | i've got a discussion going with sky2042 |
01:03.48 | Mikk | regarding whether or not there should be a /najentus redirect |
01:03.50 | Sky2042 | did? o_o |
01:06.18 | Mikk | i'm arguing that there should be one to help visitors |
01:06.27 | Mikk | he's arguing that there shouldnt be one so visitors learn to type |
01:07.36 | Mikk | i'm thinking that it isn't wowwiki's job to teach visitors how to type the hard way |
01:07.48 | Mikk | nor make them believe that there is no article on naj'entus |
01:08.37 | Sky2042 | Mikk: btw, if they somehow come to that article, and it's a deleted with "Content was "#redirect [[Naj'entus]]", that reason will show up on the page. |
01:08.40 | Mikk | we've been using redirects for common misspellings since day 1... i don't see why naj'entus needs to be different |
01:08.48 | Sky2042 | ie, they can still get to where they want to go. |
01:09.03 | Mikk | erm |
01:09.10 | Mikk | deleted articles dont show for regular users |
01:09.17 | Mikk | that's the purpose of deleted |
01:09.35 | Sky2042 | Mikk: no, there's a reason that shows up that says "this article was previously deleted, and this was the admin's reason" |
01:09.45 | Sky2042 | s/reason/page (in first use) |
01:09.55 | Kaso | I believe there should redirects for misspelllings, what possible negative consequences could there be for having one other than some elitist "they should spell right goddamnit" type argument |
01:10.09 | Kaso | its not like its going to kill the server |
01:10.20 | Sky2042 | Kaso: it's not an issue of killing the server. :/ |
01:10.40 | Kaso | i know it isnt, but i cant see any real argument for not having them. |
01:10.43 | Sky2042 | Mikk: if that didn't show up for you, than that's because it was deleted before the user merge, which wiped all the user logs. |
01:11.32 | Mikk | i mean.. we even have a category of common misspellings |
01:11.51 | Sky2042 | and we shouldn't. |
01:12.05 | Kaso | Why? what are the cons for having one? |
01:12.12 | Sky2042 | what are the pros? |
01:12.22 | Sky2042 | the only pro is that people can be lazy. |
01:12.25 | Sky2042 | oh, wait. |
01:12.25 | Kaso | pros: users who cant spell as well can find articles easier |
01:12.58 | Sky2042 | and if they're having issues spelling it, they should be able to get to the article by using a proper search, rather than changing the name in the address bar |
01:13.00 | Kaso | We should remove the search function too, that just makes people lazy in finding articles |
01:13.10 | Sky2042 | LOL |
01:13.25 | Kaso | stopping people being lazy is not a good enough reason imo |
01:13.52 | Sky2042 | but neither is "let them be lazy" |
01:14.25 | Mikk | why would they be able to find the typoed name via search if all our editors are elitist jerks and refuse to even mention the typoed version? |
01:14.32 | Kaso | Sure it is, one of the first rules of interface design is to let your users get what they seek with the least number of interactions as possible. |
01:14.51 | Sky2042 | Mikk: "naj" and or "entus" |
01:15.09 | Mikk | .... |
01:15.19 | Mikk | that implies that they know where the ' is |
01:15.23 | Mikk | which e.g. i didn't |
01:15.30 | Mikk | now, i'm a fairly literate type of guy |
01:15.37 | Sky2042 | Mikk: and now you've learned something. |
01:15.39 | Sky2042 | ;P |
01:15.53 | Mikk | i would have learned something by watching the name that i got redirected to too |
01:15.59 | Sky2042 | Kaso: that shouldn't prevent the wiki from being easily maintainable. |
01:16.07 | Mikk | "one of the first rules of interface design is to let your users get what they seek with the least number of interactions as possible." |
01:16.10 | Mikk | accessibility > elitism |
01:16.13 | Sky2042 | Mikk: i doubt it, as you just said you've done the fight dozens of time. |
01:16.16 | Sky2042 | times* |
01:16.20 | Mikk | yeah well |
01:16.25 | Mikk | i'll doubtlessly forget it next week again |
01:16.29 | Mikk | i know there's a ' somewhere in there |
01:16.34 | Mikk | i cannot remember where for the life of em |
01:16.39 | Sky2042 | -_- |
01:16.40 | Mikk | so i could go na'jentus -> nope |
01:16.45 | Mikk | najen'tus -> nope |
01:16.49 | Sky2042 | that sounds like a personal issue |
01:16.50 | Mikk | naje'ntus -> nope |
01:17.07 | Kaso | http://www.wowwiki.com/Special:Search?search=na%27jentus&go=1 |
01:17.10 | Kaso | Case point ^ |
01:18.35 | Kaso | I do agree that the current redirect system isnt the best way to do this, but its what we have at the moment and user experence is a prioirty imo |
01:19.03 | Sky2042 | but so is maintainability; do you want to hunt down the misspellings? |
01:19.24 | Kaso | What Links Here: ? |
01:19.41 | Sky2042 | yes, but that makes /my/ job harder. |
01:20.47 | Kaso | Is there a VP topic on this? it feels like perhaps a wider concensus should be attempted |
01:22.14 | Sky2042 | no, there isn't. i pmed mikk as he was wondering about it in an undeletion summary |
01:22.55 | Sky2042 | then he brought it here. |
01:23.45 | Mikk | http://www.wowwiki.com/Category:Misspellings |
01:24.01 | Mikk | http://www.wowwiki.com/WoWWiki:List_of_common_misspellings |
01:24.29 | Sky2042 | Mikk: and? your examples only show that that is how it /has/ worked, not how it can / will work. |

17:07.23 | Ose | [19:05]<Ose>on http://www.wowwiki.com/index.php?title=WoWWiki:Server_project/Guild/Entry&action=edit : can I somehow make the <h5> not break lines? |
17:07.30 | Ose | yes no? |
17:07.47 | Kirkburn | You'll need to place the rest inside the h5 |
17:07.58 | Kirkburn | Actually, hmm |
17:08.01 | Kirkburn | What is it for? |
17:08.40 | Kirkburn | I think floats may help |
17:08.52 | Ose | the guilds on http://www.wowwiki.com/Server:Khadgar_US/Progress links to their entries on guild list |
17:09.38 | Kirkburn | This is what I used on the main page: |

17:10.55 | Ose | eh? |
17:10.59 | Kirkburn | i.e. I used positioning to make the search link stay on the same line |
17:11.45 | Kirkburn | You could try just using float:right on the non h5 stuff |

18:35.18 | Kirkburn | 333 looks like it should be part of the bg |
18:35.27 | Kirkburn | I just find it jarring |
18:35.32 | Sky2042 | huh |
18:36.23 | Kirkburn | That a template box should have "transparent" areas |
18:36.23 | Sky2042 | strange, as #333 is what it was before i changed it :P |

18:39.34 | Sky2042 | ie, " – " |

20:20.44 | Sky2042 | Kirkburn: I only know this because a person at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template_talk:Navbox was having issues; UseTidy didn't fix it, so I told him to upgrade to 1.12. |
20:20.52 | Sky2042 | Jimdinventor: erg. why not a second page then? |
20:20.53 | g0urra | I mean {{navbox/doc}} |
20:20.54 | g0urra | or something |
20:21.05 | Sky2042 | Jimdinventor: something like "Advanced macros for druids" |
20:21.29 | Jimdinventor | It is my belief that those pages will be created as category pages. |
20:22.02 | Jimdinventor | In fact, I was playing with the idea of adding "Category: Druid Ability" to the bottom of those macro pages that apply. |
20:22.16 | Sky2042 | as well Jimdinventor, <name> (macro) is ambiguous, which is part of the problem. |

20:22.51 | Jimdinventor | Please elaborate. You are expressing the existence of a problem admirably, but I don't realize exactly what the problem is. :-) |
20:24.32 | Sky2042 | Jimdinventor: colating all the macros on one page (two, three, w/e) ensures that information is not duplicated (for one), and two, ensures naming issues (such as the one just specified) also aren't developed. Naming something "x (macro)"... I could click on "x (macro)" as a mage, and it wouldn't help me in the slightest. |
20:24.41 | g0urra | Jimdinventor: http://www.wowwiki.com/Useful_macros_for_druids |
20:24.44 | Sky2042 | (currently) |
20:24.47 | Sky2042 | g0urra: i just said that. |

20:25.01 | Sky2042 | g0urra: also, agree with examples. You can work on that if you want :P |
20:25.13 | g0urra | I'm trying to keep track of a NHL hockey game, BT instance run and IRC channel at the same time |
20:25.21 | Sky2042 | o_o |
20:25.36 | g0urra | luckily it's just radio ad right now |
20:25.53 | g0urra | but the boss start now so meh |
20:26.13 | Jimdinventor | <emphatic nod>. Duplication of information is indeed my 1st motivator. You'll note that macros are duplicated all across the class-macro pages. Am I rash, then, in thinking that moving them to their own, categorical pages is a bad idea? |
20:27.02 | Sky2042 | Jimdinventor: if they are duplicated in such a manner, they should be moved to [[Useful macros]] or some such. Making them their own pages also makes them more difficult to search for. |
20:27.45 | Jimdinventor | Okay. I can agree with that. May I pose something else for your consideration? |
20:28.21 | Sky2042 | feel free =) |
20:29.03 | g0urra | 3-0 pittsburgh yesss |
20:30.23 | Jimdinventor | Thank you! I see macros as "deep" to the same degree that mob and items are deep. That is, just like a mob gets an article to discuss its abilities, location, strats, etc, so too do macros get discussed in terms of "what purpsoe does this serve?" or "when does it fail?". In your opinion, do the total-macro-pages permit the space for this depth? |
20:30.23 | infobot | Jimdinventor: my pleasure |
20:30.43 | Sky2042 | wtf infobot? |

20:31.40 | Adys | thought so |
20:33.13 | Sky2042 | Jimdinventor: I see what you mean, and I would say they do, though of course that's opinion. |
20:34.26 | Jimdinventor | :-) Alright. I will sideline what I was attempting, for now, and work instead on removal of duplicates on the class-specific pages (moving them to the Useful Macros main where appropriate). That's a good job anyway! |
20:35.06 | Sky2042 | Jimdinventor: certainly. I can definitely agree though that in many cases, the information on each macro could be expanded. |
20:35.26 | Jimdinventor | Thank-- uh, m e r ci - much for your perspective in the matter, Sky. I really do appreciate it. |
20:35.26 | infobot | sure thing, Jimdinventor |

20:37.16 | g0urra | heh |
20:37.18 | Sky2042 | ~gourra |
20:37.32 | Kirkburn | Sky2042, yeah I wrote 5 originally. I should have just stayed quiet :P |
20:37.39 | Jimdinventor | "g0urra is an infobot interrogator. I wish he'd leave me alone." |
20:37.55 | g0urra | infobot, g0urra is an infobot interrogator |
20:37.55 | infobot | g0urra: okay |
20:38.04 | Jimdinventor | bwah ha ha haha |
20:38.13 | g0urra | infobot no, g0urra is an infobot interrogator. I wish he'd leave me alone. |
20:38.14 | infobot | g0urra: okay |
20:38.20 | g0urra | ~g0urra |
20:38.21 | infobot | i guess g0urra is an infobot interrogator. I wish he'd leave me alone. |
20:38.41 | Jimdinventor | I guess I can die fulfilled, now. |

21:05.58 | Kirkburn | I have no idea |
21:06.23 | Kirkburn | kd3, I *think* people are more used to how it works now |
21:07.03 | kd3 | meh... here's hoping |
21:07.27 | Kirkburn | I don't think we were quite so proactive last time |
21:07.42 | Sky2042 | wonders wth you two are talking about. |
21:07.46 | Kirkburn | (we didn't know about the F&F alpha until later certainly) |
21:08.09 | Kirkburn | Regarding that official map ... wtf at the size of Storm Peaks |
21:08.36 | Kirkburn | It seems to have engulfed Azjol'Nerub /and/ Crystalsong Forest |
21:08.54 | Sandwichman2448 | http://www.wowwiki.com/Image:WorldmapNR.jpg |
21:09.09 | Sandwichman2448 | It that his art or the map? |
21:09.12 | g0urra | art |
21:09.13 | kd3 | that's art |
21:09.13 | Kirkburn | His art |
21:09.26 | Sandwichman2448 | K |
21:09.30 | kd3 | map was NorthrendMapOfficial.jpg |
21:09.43 | Sandwichman2448 | There may have been more than one... |
21:09.51 | Kirkburn | Still wonder how Azjol'Nerub will be done - WoW doesn't support underground areas well |
21:10.05 | Sky2042 | Kirkburn: gnomer, imo. |
21:10.06 | Kirkburn | Normally they have to be entirely modelled, as opposed to a heightmap |
21:10.24 | Sandwichman2448 | Yeah. All one doodad. |
21:10.29 | Kirkburn | Well, gnomer is a huge model |
21:10.39 | kd3 | so is IF, now that I think about it |
21:10.45 | Kirkburn | But AN has got to be much larger |
21:10.49 | Bagginsww | you could make sky using a skybox right? |
21:11.06 | Kirkburn | true, but that'd be such a cop-out |
21:11.08 | Bagginsww | the rest fo the world wouldn't be loaded while your there |
21:11.17 | Kirkburn | You're underground, cause we blacked out the sky :P |
21:11.23 | Bagginsww | lol |
21:11.27 | Sky2042 | Kirkburn: it works. |
21:11.34 | Bagginsww | well a brown texture mapped skybox |
21:11.35 | Bagginsww | :p |
21:11.45 | Bagginsww | and tunnells too :p |
21:11.58 | Kirkburn | It's possible they could do more than one heightmap, but that'd be unprecedented in WoW |
21:12.08 | Bagginsww | closer you get to the roof they could then spawn an actual roof |
21:12.21 | Bagginsww | with stalactites |
21:12.39 | Bagginsww | depends on how far they want the roof to be |
21:12.51 | Kirkburn | True, we have no idea what scale they're working on |
21:12.54 | Bagginsww | depending on which part of the the area your at |
21:12.57 | Sandwichman2448 | They say something about it here: http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?pager.offset=1&cId=3163178 |
21:13.04 | Kirkburn | All we've seen of AN is some caverns in TFT |
21:13.17 | Bagginsww | but ya anyone play KOTOR? |
21:13.26 | Bagginsww | the underground in that game was pretty cool |
21:13.34 | Bagginsww | on the first world. |
21:13.34 | Kirkburn | "It's going to be exterior terrain, but underground" |
21:13.49 | Kirkburn | "It'll feel like you're in a cave, but it'll be gigantic. Buildings, temples -- a look and feel very similar to Naxxramas, since [the Nerubians] are where the Scourge stole that architecture from." |
21:13.51 | Bagginsww | probably something like the underground in KOTOR |
21:14.13 | Kirkburn | For it to be exterior terrain, that has to be a height map o_O |
21:14.19 | Kirkburn | I'm so very intrigued |
21:14.19 | Bagginsww | but maybe something akin to Moria in FOTR movie |
21:14.37 | Bagginsww | btw, LOTRO is doing the same thing with Moria |
21:14.42 | Kirkburn | I played KOTOR :D |
21:14.42 | Bagginsww | huge Underground world |
21:14.52 | Kirkburn | I've forgottem most of it >_< |
21:14.55 | Bagginsww | lol |
21:15.01 | Bagginsww | well I played only the first world :p |
21:15.05 | Bagginsww | before I got sick of star wars :p |
21:15.06 | Kirkburn | I got withing 5 minutes of the ending and never finished it ... >_> |
21:15.12 | Bagginsww | not because of the game |
21:15.23 | Kirkburn | Just cause it was star wars? |
21:15.23 | Bagginsww | but because of the changes to the movies... for the worse... |
21:15.27 | Kirkburn | :O |
21:15.42 | Kirkburn | makes plans to play KOTOR again |
21:15.48 | g0urra | holy shit 6-0 |
21:15.53 | Bagginsww | I'll play it... but not because its star wars |
21:15.57 | Bagginsww | because I like the company that made it |
21:16.06 | Bagginsww | I love their jade empire and mass effect |
21:16.22 | g0urra | flyers are getting owned |
21:17.32 | Kirkburn | Annoyingly, I can't make a WMV screenshot of Anub'Rekhan ... the colours get all washed out for some reason |

21:29.59 | Bagginsww | its got a huge expansion on goblin information |

22:48.33 | Mike-N-Go_ | I add it to the list there? |
22:49.44 | Sky2042 | lol, Mike-N-Go_, tag it with a {{fact}} |
22:49.55 | Mike-N-Go_ | Sky2042: Thank you. |

22:51.31 | foxlit | I is outraged! |
22:51.42 | Mike-N-Go_ | I do not know the wiki markup well. |
23:16.17 | Bagginsww | I suggest, watching eman's edits. While some of his additions are ok... some of it shows a high degree of horde bias, or mechanic comparisons |
23:16.45 | Bagginsww | also he has a tendency to modify quotes |
23:17.30 | Bagginsww | By that I mean adding stuff into quotes that wasn't said there previously. |
23:17.58 | Bagginsww | While paraphrasing should occur, simply modifying blockquoted material is not paraphrasing |
23:20.33 | Bagginsww | lol |

23:41.22 | Mikk | No, don't go sticking {{fact}} into the UI FAQ |
23:41.39 | Sky2042 | Mikk: then cite it, imo. i know it's true, but it needs a linkie |
23:42.08 | Mikk | The UI FAQ is fairly devoid of wiki markup for a purpose |
23:42.52 | Bagginsww | oh ok dark factions pdf is out? |
23:42.56 | Bagginsww | ok must order now :) |
23:43.00 | Mikk | Err the whole section is blockquoted stuff |
23:43.11 | Mikk | What exactly needs to be more clear there? |
23:43.23 | Sky2042 | Mikk: A LINK TO THE OP |
23:43.29 | Sky2042 | do you not get that? >_< |
23:43.41 | Mikk | No, i'm liek st00pid |
23:43.45 | Bagginsww | momentaryil :) |
23:43.49 | Mikk | That was 3 forums ago |
23:44.12 | Sky2042 | well then, explanation should be on the page, eh? |
23:46.23 | Mikk | Fine. I have now explained that posts can disappear from the blizzard forums. |
23:46.31 | Mikk | And that this one indeed has. |
23:46.50 | Sky2042 | Mikk: cool. works for me. |
23:46.53 | Mikk | Not that that in and of itself makes it any more verifiable nor believable so I fail to see how it serves a purpose. |
23:46.59 | Mikk | shrugs |
23:52.48 | Bagginsww | personally never consider forum posts all that reliable or easy to cite :p |
23:52.54 | Bagginsww | because of the instability |
23:53.14 | Sky2042 | so you cite an archival site |
23:53.21 | Bagginsww | if I can find one |
23:53.32 | Sky2042 | o_o |
23:53.34 | Bagginsww | but ya I use wayback on occasion |
23:53.45 | Bagginsww | but it doesn't always have all the archives |
23:54.09 | Mikk | http://mikk.cjb.net/chillpill.jpg |
23:54.27 | Bagginsww | yay pdf is almost downloaded :) |
23:55.10 | Bagginsww | next best thing to having my actual hardcover :p... but doesn't require me lugging around all my books over here... |
23:56.29 | Bagginsww | sweet |
23:57.18 | Sky2042 | watches as Bagginsww starts jacking off. |
23:57.19 | Sky2042 | ;P |
23:57.27 | Bagginsww | eww |
23:57.44 | Bagginsww | there is "prawn" in the book :p |
