Mordor Project

Hey Avedram, I've made a Mordor project page. The main goal of this page is to have a central place where we can look up what needs doing for Mordor. It's pretty hard to get an overview of what's been done if everyone works in their own little bubble. Hopefully we'll get Mordor complete soon when we're all working together!
If I recall correctly from Discord, you were interested in helping out with Mordor, or you've done things for Mordor related topics in the past. (From what you wrote, I think you've been busy with adding Mordor quests?) Could you check out the page for me and add the following (if applicable):

• what you've worked on in the past
• put your name under To Do on the topic(s) you would like to work on now
  

Perhaps you're just working on the music project right now. It's still useful to write down what you've done in the past, though, so new people working on the same topic know who to ask if they don't understand how something is done. Of course, if you think of anything that needs doing that's missing, you can add it to the page. That would help tremendously. Thanks! --Ravanel (talk) 11:12, 7 February 2018 (UTC)

I haven't added anything for Mordor, I almost did but then unfortunately forgot with a few quests not on the wiki. I'll look over the age and see what I can help with though! Avedram (talk) 18:52, 7 February 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for the update, much appreciated! It's nice to have an overview, but it's also a bit daunting to see how much still needs doing. It's a lot. So all help - no matter how small - is very welcome. :) --Ravanel (talk) 23:56, 7 February 2018 (UTC)

Promotion

Congratulations. Thanks to your contributions, you may now be known as a Lotro-wiki ninja. Keep up the good work! --Ravanel (talk) 11:27, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

And now you have been promoted to Editor. This mostly means that your edits are automatically marked as patrolled and do not need to be reviewed by administrators. You have been doing great work and I have the utmost trust that you will continue to do so. :) Sethladan 23:37, 27 February 2018 (UTC)

• Tip: when creating a new page, use the Article Management Tag

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.

Grats on the promotion! Well deserved —Lotroadmin (talk) 07:08, 28 February 2018 (UTC)

A belated congratulations on your promotion! I think I already did on Discord, but one cannot be congratulated enough. ;) --Ravanel (talk) 10:49, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
