News reporter update

  • Hopefully, when you go to Brickipedia_News:Home, you should now see a box to create new reports, which will only appear for news reporters. So to make a new report, just type in the name of the article and all the stuff is preloaded into it (meaning you don't have to do all that copy-paste work anymore). (Also, in case you don't know, there's an active member request here) NovaHawk 23:43, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

I think we need a Caek wikilove barnstar :P UltrasonicNXT (talk)

Files

I uploaded 12 or so files but they aren't showing up in recent changes, nor are they showing up on the page they've been uploaded to.BobaFett2 (talk) 14:00, 16 January 2014 (UTC)

The files exist, too.BobaFett2 (talk) 14:01, 16 January 2014 (UTC)

Weird. I refreshed a few times and it didn't work. Thanks BobaFett2 (talk) 15:31, 16 January 2014 (UTC)

Ratings

I'm starting to do that botting now, sorry :P. After its finished, I'll work on a new template for your pages. (It would be really easy to do it like last time, with a massive list with icons next to each article name, but I'm sure I can get it with headings like you've done it now if you like :) ) UltrasonicNXT (talk)

Images

All those images imported, running through some other ones at the mo too. :) UltrasonicNXT (talk)

Re:The Great Video Game Overhaul

  • No, I saw that, and it reminded me of my plan to restructure all of the video game pages :) NovaHawk 23:09, 18 January 2014 (UTC)

so if i have suggestions about the site layout, who do i ask FB100Z (talk) 01:22, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

Re:Tabs for year pages

  • Oh cor, I only just about remember... It was just a yeartable inside tabs, with tabs for sets, books, gear, etc wasn't it? Sorry, no clue... :/ UltrasonicNXT (talk)
  • YearSet - er, no, I don't think the third parameter is even referenced in the template! No clue why it's like that, where is it? Definately not needed as far as I can remember... UltrasonicNXT (talk)

{{ImagePortalYear}}


Yeah, sorry about that, my bad. xP Vasko (talk) 16:12, 24 January 2014 (UTC)

You've got your reviewer rights back

  • Sorry if you wanted to give them to yourself instead, I guess having 'crat but not QC is a rare case where you can give yourself rights you didn't already have before :P NovaHawk 12:19, 28 January 2014 (UTC)
    • Oh, and check the gallery again, the alignment of all the boxes together is messed up, but I think the rest has been taken care of, let me know if you find anything NovaHawk 12:21, 28 January 2014 (UTC)
      • No need, it turns out I just figured out a way to format them all automatically :D (I wasn't expecting it to work) The only thing left is getting the number of minifigures- I thought there would have been a string/parser function for that, where we could just detect the number of times there was a *[[ , * [[ or <br/>, but I can't find one :( Any ideas for other ways around it? NovaHawk 23:25, 29 January 2014 (UTC)
  • Hey, so what are we actually doing with the gallery? Is it meant to replace the table on years? NovaHawk 01:08, 31 January 2014 (UTC)

2014

  • Hey, there seems to be some problems with Template:2014/Table, which was causing 2014 to not load (it was happening to at least SoH and me). At the moment, only one of the subtables is in the template, because I can't add either of the other two back in (hitting save just causes my page to not load). I think the problem is that all that data is just too much for the template and it causes an overload (I'm not sure, it's just what I'm guessing). I think what we need to do is stop nesting the sets in a table. Instead, we could do something like:
{{YearTable/header}}
{{YearTable/themeHeader}}
{{YearTable/set|Set 1}}
{{YearTable/set|Set 2}}
.....
{{YearTable/end}}

I'll try and work on it sometime soon unless you've got any other ideas as to why it may not be working or a better solution NovaHawk 22:52, 3 February 2014 (UTC)

I assumed the slowness with the yearTables was because of the semanticness, but yeah, you may have a point about all the nesting. (talk page stalking XD) UltrasonicNXT (talk)
You're/NXT's (depending on who's reading it :P) right- it's all the SMW grabs ;( I just tried to make up a 2014 gallery using {{ImagePortalYear/Semantic}} and it crashed. Now I don't know what to do... NovaHawk 00:01, 5 February 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the Cookies

Re: Chat

  • Spy? Is that DLC? There were no spies or diplomats for when I played through :( I wouldn't be too worried about missiles.. unless they have Nuclear Fission already so they have the tech for bombs. But Atomic Bombs only have a range of 10 anyway. It's the Nuclear missiles (from Advanced ballistics) you need to watch out for. Maybe go into a trade and see how much Uranium they have? If they don't have any, you should be ok, or you could trade for it so they can't build anything (bombs=1 uranium, missiles=2). If it was me, I'd just get my units placed as well as possible, then sneak attack and take as many cities as I could in one turn, then see how it goes from there. Are there any anti-missile buildings in the game? There used to be a SAM Missile Battery you could build, you might want to build something like that on any cities near them :S NovaHawk 04:40, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

Newbie question

Over in my talk you offered to help with any questions I had. I'll take you up on the offer:). I have a few questions regarding the overall content of this wiki. In the Manual of Style, it was mentioned that Brickipedia is not meant to be a set database. Looking back on some of the 'year' categories, such as 1996 and 1997, there are a lot of red set links. Should these massive amounts of set pages be created? Would that be spamming? Lego613master (talk) 12:56, 9 March 2014 (UTC)

Help

Eh... this is probably strange, but this is BobaFett12d. I seem to be having troubles with logging in. Is there a problem, or am I lost for eternity? 209.89.234.187 03:53, 10 March 2014 (UTC)
