Quest template[edit]

Hello Kraldor, let I've todl you on the forums and thank you for your efforts.

However, I'm seeing you making the same "mistake" in each quest page you're editing. The "zone" field need to not have any internal links ([[text]]s). The reason for this is to not have any broken categories. When you look at the bottom of the page, you'l see that the template has put the page in a few categories. One of them is Category:The Vale of Twilight quests. If you go and put an internal link in the zone section, it breaks the addition to the catgory and the page doesn't figure in the category.

However, I know that the real you do this is for this information to be presented as a link to The Vale of Twilight in the MissionInfoBox. I'll fix this over the template. I'm not sure if I should link directly to the Vale or to the category.. which you think would be best? (This is also open for Yoko, Dragon and Smith to chime in on this of course)→ Borror0 22:06, January 20, 2008 (EST)

I think it would be better for the link in the mission info box to go to the area page, not the category for quests.→ Kraldor
Consider it done. :)

PS: No need to add a colon, the post template indent it for you.→ Borror0 23:32, January 20, 2008 (EST)

Is there an easier way to type out these messages without putting in all this code with brackets and equal signs and such? Kraldor
Are you refering to the quest template? If so copy and paste works really well. ;) If you're refering to the talk pages, not really. Howevr, it becomes a second nature. For me, it takes me 10s to get from {{ to 3=, so I don't know if that is your concern..? Borror0 23:52, January 20, 2008 (EST)


yep was just talking about talk - i guess i'll have to get used to writing {{post|5|[[User:Kraldor|Kraldor]] |3= every time Kraldor
Nah, even shorter. For this post, I typed "{{post|6|~~~~|3=text}}"
Hope it helps. :) Borror0 01:53, January 21, 2008 (EST)
Yep, that makes it much easier, thanks. Kraldor 02:31, January 21, 2008 (EST)
