Tips for New Editors

What is this language we use here? The code we use is called wiki markup. It is not HTML but under the hood the wiki-engine creates HTML from the markup; see Wiki Markup for more information. Lotro-Wiki uses MediaWiki which recognizes wiki-markup, many HTML tags, and CSS. Staying Current In the left-hand column, the link "Recent discussions" will list any recent change to a talk page. Using that link is an easy way to "stay current". An even better way is to chat with other editors and admins. Red links in Preview Mode If a link turns out red it indicates an error, usually a typo or "page not found". Something that should be fixed before saving them page. However, when editing in newly added areas we accept red links for pages expected to new added soon; all red links can be found using a link under "Special Pages" in the left-hand column. Removing "Stub" Tags Some pages have an Article Management Tag, meaning the page needs additional work. When adding the missing information, please remove the tag, which removes the page from e.g. Category:Stubs/Mob or whatever category the page was tagged for. Creature vs. Mob "Mob" is an enemy inside an instance, while "creature" is any other enemy. Kill vs. Defeat At Lotro-Wiki we never say "kill" but always say "defeat". How to Delete a Page? Only Administrators have the ability to delete pages. Instead you can tag a page for deletion by adding {{Delete Page|<reason>}} at the top of the page. However, we prefer to keep old pages around for reference so we use the {{Obsolete}} tag. Similarly, certain information on a page could be useful for future reference. Either hide that info under a collapsed table titled e.g. "obsolete info", or move that info to a section at the bottom of the page, similarly titled, or to a new page with a name indicating the info is old. Chat with other editors for advice. How to Move (Rename) a Page? Only Administrators can move a page, use the {{Move}} tag, and give a reason why.

Quest chains

Yes, you are right. I changed it, because I work on lotro-wiki since years and I hate nothing more, than changing things (for Updates, etc.) on more than one place. Shoult we change it back in {{Category:All that Remains Quests}} (as you had before) in the quests and change the headline of the categoies in "quests" instead of quest chain? But than the category of the quest will be "Cliving Quests" and not "All that Remains Quest"? Have you some better idea? Barny (talk) 21:42, 9 October 2014 (UTC)

Problem with coda

I'm guessing someone else fixed it. Probably Sethladan as I note that he added the "<noinclude>" Wrapper around the category entries.

UPdate to Tomes

When Bullroarer came up tonight I began updating the Tomes of Might and Tomes of Vitality. They clearly changed pretty radically.

The toatal bonus is now +320!!!

See: Stat Enhancements

Still have to do the other 3.

Wm Magill - Valamar - OTG/OTC - talk 06:10, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

Good to hear. It would make sense that they would upgrade them.

320?... Ah! The higher levels give more. Nice

Minstrel Shield by Weaponsmith?

Some days ago, you made some Changes on Crafting. You added some items to the table Profession vs. Class, and especially you added Shield to the table cell Weaponsmith/Minstrel. Are you sure that it’s the Weaponsmith and not the Metalsmith who crafts a shield? --QNo (talk) 09:53, 22 May 2016 (UTC)

Well spotted, I messed up one of those. I think I got it correctly this time.

TP-reward to LP-reward

Are you changing all those deeds by hand? You can ask an admin to do an automatic search and replace, that would save you a lot of effort. Gnagerwine (talk) 16:49, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

Oh, but if Category:Pages using deprecated TP-reward parameter from Deed template is all that's left I guess there's not much point to that. Gnagerwine (talk) 16:50, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

Alright, then. Just making sure you considered it, to save you some work. :) Gnagerwine (talk) 17:28, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

misc cleanup

I've been cleaning up old pages, and that looks like one that I didn't have a direct link to.

List of Pages

Hi there and happy 2020! I removed a link from your List of pages to prevent the creation of a red link: [1]. I'm not sure what your list does; if my action was incorrect, feel free to do as you deem fit. :) --Ravanel (talk) 15:29, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
