btw, for tackling the new template! Looking great! - Rari Talk 04:06, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

Freaky '

The apostrophe does cause some parsing issues with the new templates. The fixes:

  • {{itemstats}}, always definate name=
  • {{DPLitemslist|Full category name}}, example {{DPLitemslist|Category:Dropped by A crate (Sales Logs: Hogcaller's Inn)}}

It has to do with DPL parsing a category= function with an apostrophe. Not sure why it goes into panic mode, but that's the fix!

Rust Key quest

Ok, Rust Key quest is going to need to be broken down into three pages. I'm going to tell you how to do this, instead of just doing it myself. The reason it needs to be done is that you can't have more than one Questinfobox on a page. Make three pages, you can pretty much just copy/paste from the Rust Key quest page, but break it down: Rust Key quest (Iron Dead), Rust Key quest (Free Machines), and Rust Key quest (The Rust). Make sure you add | sub = 1 to all of the Questinfoboxes. Then, replace the text on the Rust Key quest with an overview page. The template will look like this:

{{Quest overview|
*[[Rust Key quest (Iron Dead)]]
*[[Rust Key quest (Free Machines)]]
*[[Rust Key quest (The Rust)]]
}}

Overview description <!-- Replace this obviously-->

{{clear}}

As always, let me know if you need any help. - Rari Talk 17:59, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

Yeah I considered splitting them up when I made the edit, but with the absense of any info at all on the other 2 factions I decided not to, I did not realise that multiple questinfobox cant go on the same page cause everything looked ok. :P
Thanks for the guidance, I'll make the edits later... Laurane 18:48, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
No problem, it's not immediately obvious. But yeah, it screws up the feedout on the pages that pick information out of templates: the quest boxes on Zone pages, the Quest timeline and the Quests by class / all pages :P. - Rari Talk 19:00, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
