21:05.16 | Robotnick2 | Anyone alive? |
22:06.37 | Robotnick2 | Anyone home? |
22:06.55 | Robotnick2 | Blimey, STILL no-one? |
22:07.00 | Robotnick2 | -_- |
22:31.04 | morgoth1145 | Robotnick2: You might wait more than 18 seconds between asking if anybody is home and saying that nobody is on |
22:31.14 | morgoth1145 | Not that I've been here, but still |
22:31.41 | morgoth1145 | Woah, somebody's been busy with Taxons |
22:31.53 | Robotnick2 | Yup :-) |
22:32.13 | Robotnick2 | Almost done all of mammalia. |
22:33.10 | morgoth1145 | Wow. Showing both Ose and I up in the whole "Converting Taxons" category |
22:33.18 | morgoth1145 | though I've been too busy to do so since Summer |
22:34.12 | Robotnick2 | ;-). I was talking to ose last night, and I asked how you convert them, and then I was hooked since then, so... it's very boring sometimes though... |
22:34.31 | Robotnick2 | Especially if you have loads of families! |
22:35.09 | morgoth1145 | I found it boring period |
22:35.32 | morgoth1145 | I assume you're making creature infoboxes for any pages that don't have them, right? |
22:35.46 | Robotnick2 | Yes. |
22:36.58 | Robotnick2 | You wait, I'll have two dozen angry Spore-ers wanting to know why I was meddling with their creatures! |
22:38.38 | morgoth1145 | If they keep complaining, Ose and/or I will take care of it. Unless you did something crazy, they shouldn't have any right to complai |
22:38.41 | morgoth1145 | complain* |
22:39.13 | Robotnick2 | oh no, noone's complained yet, I was just predicting a riot. |
22:40.33 | morgoth1145 | Oh, there shouldn't be one |
22:40.48 | morgoth1145 | Most of the people who made these creatures are rather inactive |
22:41.54 | Robotnick2 | Actually, I have to agree. I'm astonished at how many people don't even bother putting the tax stuff into the infobox! It's right there! All they've got to do is stick some exrta info in! |
22:42.17 | Robotnick2 | Makes my/your/Ose's work MUCH easier! |
22:43.26 | morgoth1145 | You mean people making tax info now? |
22:43.26 | Robotnick2 | </rant> |
22:43.39 | morgoth1145 | because there's not much classification going on right now |
22:44.13 | Robotnick2 | No, I mean generally, in the past, people were just dumping info onto the creature pages. |
22:44.27 | Robotnick2 | Heaven forbid they use the infobox... |
22:44.28 | morgoth1145 | That's because in the past this system didn't exist |
22:44.48 | morgoth1145 | in the past the infobox either didn't exist or wasn't made to handle taxonomy |
22:45.00 | Robotnick2 | Ah. *feels very stupid* |
22:45.28 | Robotnick2 | How recently has it been since the infobox's have supported taxonomy? |
22:46.17 | morgoth1145 | I'm not sure, but more recent than most classifications have taken place |
22:47.19 | morgoth1145 | I assume that you've just not gotten to the 2 taxons under Mammalia that don't show up yet? |
22:48.07 | Robotnick2 | It should be three, and no I haven't. I'm in the middle of Perissodactyla, should finish that soon. |
22:49.27 | morgoth1145 | Is that 3 including Perissodactyla? Because once you convert a taxon, even if its children aren't done yet, it'll show up on the parent |
22:50.14 | Robotnick2 | Oh, I forgot that. in my head, it's just alist of done's and not dones, I forgot that the parents will always display their children. |
22:50.53 | morgoth1145 | Also, when you're changing infoboxes (that have prior classification stuff), I suggest not using the form. The 4 unneeded fields stay and are thrown at the bottom. |
22:51.28 | morgoth1145 | Just something to know from now on, I'll probably clean up the ones in the log |
22:51.44 | Robotnick2 | But yes, it was. The other 2 are Primatiodea and Arteriodactyla. And, I don't, I always use the raw text. |
22:51.49 | morgoth1145 | but if you look at the history of the Lake Leep creature, you'll see what I mean. |
22:51.55 | morgoth1145 | Oh, really? |
22:52.01 | morgoth1145 | Well, you missed that one |
22:52.15 | Robotnick2 | Oh, lake leep was one of my early ones, I might well have done. |
22:52.54 | Robotnick2 | In fact, it was one of my first, wasn't it? |
22:53.16 | morgoth1145 | yeah |
22:53.34 | morgoth1145 | hm, a couple later you added the 4 unneccesary fields back in for some reason |
22:53.54 | Robotnick2 | < is now very confuzled |
22:54.02 | Robotnick2 | Why the hell would I do that? |
22:55.16 | morgoth1145 | Don't know |
22:55.29 | morgoth1145 | [[Creature:Pex]] is also borked, I'll go fix that up later |
22:55.30 | morgothBotPy | morgoth1145 meant: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Creature:Pex |
22:55.43 | morgoth1145 | But hey, you seem to be doing well in general |
22:55.56 | Robotnick2 | Oh yeah, pex. I was tired at that point, I messed that one up big time did't I? |
22:56.07 | Robotnick2 | Left the infobox blank? |
22:56.35 | Robotnick2 | And, that must be uber embarrasing. |
22:56.44 | Robotnick2 | Corrected by your own bot... |
22:57.10 | morgoth1145 | It's supposed to do that |
22:57.21 | morgoth1145 | it's now a link |
22:57.36 | morgoth1145 | instead of having to type that entire thing out, the bot makes the link for me |
22:57.48 | Robotnick2 | OIC. |
22:57.56 | morgoth1145 | yeah |
22:58.01 | Robotnick2 | So, if I said [[SporeWiki]] |
22:58.02 | morgothBotPy | Robotnick2 meant: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/SporeWiki |
22:58.08 | morgoth1145 | if you just said [[]] |
22:58.09 | morgothBotPy | morgoth1145 meant: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/ |
22:58.13 | Robotnick2 | :-O |
22:58.17 | Robotnick2 | Cool. |
22:58.37 | morgoth1145 | {{infobox creature|templates work too, and the fields are taken out, even.}} |
22:58.37 | morgothBotPy | morgoth1145 meant: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Template:infobox_creature |
22:58.47 | morgoth1145 | [[|Also alt-text for links]] |
22:58.47 | morgothBotPy | morgoth1145 meant: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/ |
22:58.53 | Robotnick2 | Also, when Ose said [[parent: mammalia]] last night... |
22:58.54 | morgothBotPy | Robotnick2 meant: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/parent:_mammalia |
22:59.06 | morgoth1145 | actually, it was [[parent::mammalia]] |
22:59.10 | morgoth1145 | I've fixed that |
22:59.16 | Robotnick2 | How did you...? |
22:59.23 | Robotnick2 | Log, right/ |
22:59.23 | morgoth1145 | it's my bot |
22:59.27 | morgoth1145 | oh, that |
22:59.41 | morgoth1145 | yeah, I'm special |
23:00.01 | Robotnick2 | [mutter] special... [/mutter] |
23:01.15 | morgoth1145 | dinner |
23:01.25 | Robotnick2 | Oh, ok. See ya later! |
23:17.55 | *** join/#sporewiki Robotnick2 (n=568acd0f@gateway/web/cgi-irc/irc.wikia.com/x-brxsaohmadicwbtj) |
23:33.13 | Robotnick2 | How was dinner? |
23:39.59 | morgoth1145 | Wait, how'd you know that I was back? |
23:40.02 | morgoth1145 | I didn't say anything |
23:41.50 | morgoth1145 | Also, in case you didn't already know, just flag genus taxons for deletion and set the infobox to register the family as the parent |
23:41.54 | Robotnick2 | You edited Pex ;-) |
23:42.38 | Robotnick2 | And, ok. |
23:43.56 | morgoth1145 | yes, I did |
23:44.52 | Robotnick2 | Aagh, I wish some l33t scripter would hurry up and make a bot to do the taxons <hint, hint!> |
23:45.37 | morgoth1145 | harder than it seems |
23:46.06 | Robotnick2 | I know it is, I can script RBX.Lua (kinda). |
23:47.00 | morgoth1145 | You'd have to have it read the text, though |
23:47.41 | Robotnick2 | Yeah, too much variation to do it with. I suppose if it were uniform already it would be fine, but it's not! |
23:50.59 | morgoth1145 | Also, you see that little cross symbol that's used when creatures are extinct? That can go in the species name, if it's extinct. (At the beginning) |
23:51.27 | morgoth1145 | You don't need to change it to (extinct) at the end |
23:51.47 | Robotnick2 | Oh. |
23:52.01 | Robotnick2 | Oops. |
23:52.57 | Robotnick2 | :-( |
23:54.42 | morgoth1145 | It'll get changed back eventually. Or not, it may not get changed back. Iunno. |
23:55.13 | Robotnick2 | Knowing this lot, it'll get changed when we next redo the taxonomies! |
23:55.56 | morgoth1145 | The point is to never have to go through all this work ever again |
23:56.37 | Robotnick2 | Oh, good. But we will, one day. |
23:57.18 | Robotnick2 | Someone will think "Oh, won't it be nice if it were all in l33tsp34k." And it'll start all over again. |
23:57.26 | Robotnick2 | :-) |
