Hi.

Protect means was unable to upload screenshots to some quests and people pages!!!!!!!
Well maybe my fault somewhere!! On wiki I'm "TheHawkNe". When registering would not accept me as TheHawk (with password I had entered), said already taken.
But still, as registered on wiki, thought allowable to add screenshots to protected pages?
Will not have time now to do anymore.

Also have noticed, if anybody needs to find screenshot, it is a real pain. If search within slideshow will not find. Had to input search 4 times in normal gallery window to find.

If i remember correctly, what Kassandra said, protected means only registered users, and not just anyone, can edit the page.

[kassandra]

Yes, Himmelslicht is right.
You're admin Hawk, it's not in my power to block YOU^^
I use medium level of protection ' block new and unregistered users' and especially with articles that I regarded as 'finished' or 'almost finished'.
If we want to start 'advertising' Wikia on other games forums, as Blink mentioned before, I'm not even sure that this means of protection will be enough as some people might start deleting articles just for fun ? (hope it won't happen but people are unpredictable...). So I'm even thinking about giving maximum protection on walkthroughs - 'only admis can edit them' ( of course for finished articles only ) What do you think?

As for other sections, I guess simple 'rollbacking/undeleting' should work, but I don;t know how to odo it yet:P

As for the photo it appears there must be a problem on Wikia... Ixadias had similar problem and the pages he started editing are definitely unprotected.

PS. You can always unprotect te page and check if that was the problem.
To protect/unprotect a page, click the small arrow on the edit button to activate the dropdown menu.

Hello,

Rollback right is not automatically granted to admins, I just noticed that. Do you want me to grant you rollback rights Kassandra?

Edit: I will also mark unfinished pages with the 'Stub' sign on top. 'Stub' means that the page is not yet complete and contibutions are needed there.

[himmelslicht]

There should be a Moderation page or something on the Wiki, where you can see ANY change done in the past time. As a admin you should have the rights to undo any evil done.
Im not sure uf this option exists, but there should be a way where changes have to be approved by a admin or something like that? Maybe that would be helpful.

[kassandra]

Well... I guess the more of us have htis 'rollback' option, the better. I thought it was something that admins have:P Apparently not. So I guess it woud be good if all of us had this option.

And Shatar, did you make Arvisrend a Bureaucrat?
Hawk, I just read from Admin FAQ that admins can delete images. If the Wikia's database is so full of images, maybe not all of them are necessary?
And Himmelslicht, I haven't found anywhere that changes have to be accepted by anyone. Simply rollbacking/undeleting , blocking users, protecting.

Stub? I guess I don't have this one:P

[Shatar]

I'll grant all the admins the rollback option. And Arvisrend seems to be a bureaucrat already. Maybe Becca did this already.

A stub is a short article that can be expanded with more information on a subject by any user. To mark an article as a "stub" add the code {{stub}} to the end of any article. Hope that helps.

[Defianc4]

I would love to pitch in a few articles.

[kassandra]

Great Choose which sections you want to write articles in and a short how-to is here:
http://nehrim.wikia.com/wiki/Wiki_How-To

If you have any more questions, ask here


EDIT: Ok guys and girls I edited more in Wiki How-to and this time on adding links. Hope it helps you. Took me some time to figure out why some obvious URLs weren't found by Wikia. I guess it's still a bit bugged. But I wrothe there a 'trick' so that the URLs can be found.


EDIT2: Wow, I just noticed something really strange. Any ideas WHY every new user on wiki gets an automatic message :"Welcome thank you for editing blah blah blah" nad it is... singned by ME !! I did't change anything :O I did the same message when I started editing from Bec. Why has it changed?

I think it's a random automatic message which is signed by a random Admin. I saw the same message on another user's talk page, but it was signed by Blink.

Well, that explains it then. I received an unsigned message from someone the other day on my "talk" page and couldn't tell who it was from. I really wish the program wouldn't do that. I guess I should go edit my talk page to let people know that they can contact me there then.

[Garnet]

It's possible in section armors/weapons add a page like "armor sets" because how it's now is a bit confused for someone who is looking for entire set. I don't
want do it myself, just want that older "wikis" consider this option.

[kassandra]

Hi Garnet
Nice suggestion, I guess Shatar should see to it as he knows the most about sets and it was mainly he who focused on collecting sets. I know nothing about it. I guess no need to delete antyhing, just add another page with 'armor sets' and copy some existing info there. Or you can do it yourself, I' sure Shatar won't mind. But please don't delete anything:)

And Garnet no need to address us as 'oder wikis'. Wiki is really young, only about 3 weeks I guess. We hadn't known each other before:P

[Shatar]

No problem. I'll make a separate link for Armour Sets on the Items page. I'll move the images with full sets to that page then.

Edit: I've made an Armour sets page. Each set has a section and a table with all the pieces. I was planning to put the Enchantments in the second colon, but I don't have the time right now.

[Garnet]

Thanks.
I have a problem, just start The Northrealm villages and try to use the concept from Mahrnitz, but i don't understand the linking system (something like section).
Can you give a link from Wikifordummies, it must be somewhere. And how works (hide)?

[Defianc4]

I filled in the table for the Blood Mage's Embrace set.

[kassandra]

Hi!
@ Garnet
Check this page : http://nehrim.wikia.com/wiki/Wiki_How-To . Inside you can find a link to official Wikia guide.
And.. .what 'hide' do you mean?:P

@Defianc4
Thanks a lot

[Defianc4]

If anyone has information on where to find any piece of any armor set, please check here and post the location you found it plus its attributes.

[Defianc4]

Ok, just finished linking between the Generic Armor and Armor Sets, and I filled in all the Armor Sets info.

I hope this helps others as much as it helped me!

@kassandra
Contents (hide), I check the link tomorrow.
