BG-Wiki Status Update!

[Rocl]

Hmm, noticed no one posted a red mage guide yet, guess I'll get to work on that.

Oh, and no refresh jokes pls.

EDIT: HAH, guess I can't make one on the fly. Oh well, I'll type it up in notepad or something and send it to rocl

You wish the Red Mage guide is mine
I'll accidentally lose yours in a terrible editting accident

You find a better explanation of Last Resort than SE hates DRK.

I'm more likely to believe SE is simply bad at balancing than they actually hate anyone. Sundi wouldn't harm a fly. (I don't think someone looking for tips on how to play DRK needs to see that, I mean, they could just go to KI for that. But it is your guide).

Last resort is a joke and I treated it as such. Period. No, I didn't go for the dryness of other guides, but that's just how I chose to make it. It needs some editing and some additional tips, and I'll get to that, but overall I think it's rather useful and I addressed many questions people have asked me about how to play DRK and why to play DRK.

If somebody wants a guide on how to play DRK, how to gear DRK, etc and not just a database of abilities/spells without posting in a forum (and a lot of people DON'T like posting in forums) then they read guides. I am TRYING to have people not be failures after reading my guide.

I didn't say it was bad(and the jokes were quite appreciated) ;o

Is it possible to try to minimize all the inside jokes for bgwiki? So far it's great, but for an outsider (eg. not forum insider), it just looks like just another LS site instead of a professional wiki page for the game. Specifically, the logo of the bgwiki (hat + shoe) is just....

It was never our intention of permanetly leaving that logo up >_> At least, not as far as I know

Just put the clothcrafting spectacles on the boot so it looks scholarly like the frog.

Looks like you're going to have an RDM guide traffic jam, I was going to copypasta 101 v2.0 once I figured out how to edit a wiki.

EDIT: looks like it needs editing, I wrote some misinformed stuff back in the day.

It's just a temp, I'm working on a few logo designs (I've made about 7 or so thus far) but I'm waiting till I find one I'm happy with.

Here's one I was working with, but theres an issue with the type being readable. I'm messing with it to find a color that doesnt blend into the Qiqirin to much and also just making a few more designs at the same time.

There can always be multiple guide

Any estimate on when the unwashed masses will be able wiggle into the bgwiki? Everything is still editable only by the Bureaucats (yeah, I said it), and I'm excited ! Anticipation, etc.!

[Kazen]

Believe they said sometime this week on vent, just a few things need done before we go live. The templates and stuff seem to be done, but now they need to load the images into the respective places and it'll probably be ready to go live.

We're still working out templates for a few of the major items (no pun intended) of the Wiki. My guess is once that is done, it will open up.

Oh, and just for the record, by the time I'm done with this, I'm going to need a hueg bottle of aspirin. Hueg like xbox.

[isladar]

Thanks so much for responding. While I don't know that I'll be able to contribute much to large-scale things (seems like people are frothing at the mouth to get at the big stuff), I'm actually stoked about adding little shit like equipment stats and whatnot. Never felt like contributing to The Wiki That Shall Not Be Named, and BGwiki has really piqued my interest.

Looking forward to the green light!

Is there a place where all the templates are located? It would be nice to have the templates easily accessible so that the people who edit can get familiar with them and can quickly copy/paste to the proper pages.

There will be a template compilation page.
