I always fail at reading captchas, too. Welcome aboard! :) Sethladan 21:03, 16 August 2011 (EDT)

Task Names

Ahoy! As for Task:Broken Halberd vs. Task:Broken Halberds, I added a note inside the Quest:Task: Broken Halberd saying:

Article Note:

The Tasks Bulletin Board at Gondamon printed "Task: Broken Halberd" which does not follow the consistent naming of quests based on several trophies collected from some intelligent creatures. The names are all plural for sheaths and clubs. There is a high chance that whoever was typing the name for the quest "Task: " really meant "Task: Broken Halberds" and, thus, this article redirects to the correct and consistent naming for the Task instead of creating another article that functions as a quest for the exact same trophy.

since the naming convention of the tasks is not uniform. I went with the majority option of naming the task to the name that it uses the most for these types of items: "halberds" and not "halberd".

Welcome back!

Good to see you around again. :) I bumped you up to Ninja status so you should be able to bypass CAPTCHA now in the event that it's still an issue for you. You've been busy these past couple of days, so two thumbs up. Holler if you need anything. Sethladan 14:51, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

Rangers of Esteldin categories

Currently, the various pages for Rangers of E... stuff have links to the RIGHT page, but mediawiki still points them at the wrong page due I believe to past versions of Mediawiki that did not support Unicode.

I have corrected the Quests category by the simple expedient of opening the page for editing, then saving (as a minor edit) without touching the text. This causes Mediawiki to recalculate the categories the page is put under.

Note that this works equally well with category pages as with any other page.
