06:09.19Skyfirehey Sko
06:10.21Skosirisyeah?
06:12.21Skyfirehehe, just saying hello ;P
06:12.42Skosirisoh :p
06:12.48SkosirisHello there :)
06:14.21Skyfireargh
06:14.26Skyfireguess i'm unregistered...
06:14.28Skyfire-_-
06:14.37Skyfirejust ask it here... there's no-one listening
06:14.42Skosirislol
06:14.45SkyfirexD
06:15.08Skyfireor you can leave it on my talk page if you have an account :O
06:16.21SkosirisI was wondering why Gryphon decided to place both Thott & Alla links above the Wowhead one in the Elinks-item template
06:16.40bleetahare they in alphabetical order?
06:16.49Skosiris<PROTECTED>
06:16.49Skosiris<PROTECTED>
06:16.49Skosiris<PROTECTED>
06:17.00bleetah/shrug
06:17.02Skyfiredo -not- ask me that. I was wondering the same exact thing
06:17.28Skyfiretbh, it should prolly be alla-thott-wow to be in alphabetical... :/
06:18.44Skosirissorting links alphabetically would be a good way so that people don't think there's a bias, but don't you think sorting the links by relevance would be a better solution?
06:19.34Skosirisit's your call, I'm just wondering :)
06:19.39Skyfirehow is yours more relevant than, say, ampwows? i'm just curious.
06:19.41Skyfire;P
06:21.13Skosirisplease don't get me started on AmpWow
06:21.23Skyfirejust an example
06:21.27Skyfireanswer the question ;P
06:21.42Skosiristheir work is very flattering
06:22.15bleetah'ideally', the default view would be alphabetical, then logged in people would have a preference setting... but I guess that'd be 'Hard(TM)' to implement

06:22.56Skosiris<PROTECTED>
06:22.56Skosiris<PROTECTED>
06:23.29bleetahi said ideally, not in reality :P
06:23.47SkosirisI'm replying to Sky
06:24.07Skyfirepersonally, I'd like to see wowhead too, since you guys are so much better than the other two. but rules are rules ;_;
06:24.07bleetahkk, soz
06:24.12TekkubGryph's using Alexa to order based on un-biased popularity ratings
06:24.13Skyfireand I don't think it was on purpose
06:24.20Skyfireor that
06:24.22Skyfire:O
06:24.25SkosirisI wouldn't want to praise my own site, so I'll let you guys decide based on your preferences
06:24.31Skyfireit's because you said "Tekkub"
06:24.35Skyfirehe awoke!
06:24.45TekkubI just happened to be here too :P
06:25.05Skyfirelol
06:25.06Tekkubthe *optimal* solution is to make the order random...
06:25.15Tekkubfind a way to do that and we'd all be happy
06:25.23SkosirisI understand that using Alexa, just like using an alphabetically sorted list, are good ways to show a non-bias
06:25.26Skosirisbut here's my point:
06:25.42Skosirissay Myspace release a new WoW db site, would it be the first in the list just because their Alexa rank is higher?
06:26.02Skyfireeven though they aren't dedicated?
06:26.10Skyfire(adding on to his question)
06:26.22TekkubI think the first step in breaking people from habit is not using popularity as a measure
06:26.58bleetahcorrect, many people mistake 'popular' for 'good'
06:27.01Tekkubbut I don't think alpha is gonna work either, that's never worked
06:27.01Skosirisexactly
06:27.10Tekkubopen the yellow pages to 'A'
06:27.19Skyfirelol
06:27.25Skyfiretruth
06:27.35Tekkubso what oes that leave us?
06:27.37Skosirisalso, what's with this "oh noes, bias!!" attitude? :)
06:27.51Tekkuba specific bias towards one site, or towards popularity...
06:27.53SkyfireNPOV
06:27.54Tekkubor what?
06:28.05Skyfirehttp://www.wowwiki.com/WW:NPOV
06:28.08Skyfire:x
06:28.14Skosirisif all of you guys agreed that one site is preferred over the others, you should listen to your hearts
06:28.24Skyfiresomeone's just advocating their site ;P
06:28.35Tekkubwe don't agree, the fact Gryph changed that proves it
06:28.37Skyfirethe one problem I have with it is your icons :/
06:28.40Tekkubthe template is protected
06:28.58Skosirisoh
06:29.13Skosiristhis NPOV policy is great
06:29.28TekkubI personally like random, I just don't know how to pull it off
06:29.30Skyfireall I get when I right-click and then click "View Background Image" is http://www.wowhead.com/images/icon_border_large.png
06:29.45Skyfireif you had the proper icons, I would <3 you
06:29.53Skosirisas the NPOV says, I don't think you guys should be linking to any site just because you "like" it or want to encourage it
06:30.09Skosirisbut if you guys really do think that 1 site is more relevant than the others, then it should be a neutral point of view to link to this one
06:30.34Skosirisoh
06:30.40Tekkubwell the goal is to provide equality in the external links really
06:30.40Skyfirewhich would require that the links be random... and I don't think that's possible ;_;
06:30.53Tekkubmake it easy for them to find more info on the site they prefer
06:30.57Tekkub*any* site
06:31.07Tekkubbut... people are bitchy about order
06:31.23Skyfirethe very fact we list some sites and not others is PoV... but what can you do?
06:31.27Skyfire:(
06:31.37Tekkubactually, you know what the ideal solution is here?
06:31.42Tekkubthat we'll never pull off
06:31.47Skyfireoh boy
06:31.48SkosirisI don't know much about how powerful is the Wiki code you use to make templates and pages
06:31.52Tekkuba user setting for their prefered site
06:31.59Skyfireooooo
06:32.00Skosirisbut would there be a way to code something like this:
06:32.11Skosirisif the current hour is odd, then show site #1 first
06:32.15Skyfirelol
06:32.15Skosirisif it's even, show site #2 first
06:32.16Skosirisetc
06:32.25Skyfirewhat about site 3? :P
06:32.34Tekkubwiki templates aren't very powerful, and getting things implemented serverside is essentially a nonexistant option
06:32.53Tekkublike I said, just random order :)
06:33.04Skosirisrandom order sounds good
06:33.12Tekkubwe *can* pull day of the week
06:33.15Skosirisstill better than Wowhead listed 3rd :P
06:33.20Skyfireeh
06:33.32Skyfiredid you read what i had to say about your icons? Huh? DIDJA?!!
06:33.34Skyfire;P
06:33.34TekkubLook at tip of the day: http://www.wowwiki.com/Main_Page
06:33.51Tekkubso you run head?
06:33.58Skosirisyeah I read  :P
06:34.00Tekkubyou like my slogan?
06:34.03Tekkubdo ya?
06:34.11Skyfireits a good slogan, tbh
06:34.16Skyfirelol
06:34.24Skyfirea bunch of users would freak, however :x
06:34.25TekkubI had an idea for head that ya'all might like
06:34.33Tekkubaside from the slogan
06:34.41Skosiristhis "issue" is caused by the fact we use an overlay <div> which adds the icon border to the icon image
06:34.51Skosirishmm
06:35.19Skosiriswhat was the slogan again?
06:35.23SkosirisGimme head?
06:35.27Tekkub"gimme head"
06:35.35Skosirislol
06:35.46sancus.
06:35.47Tekkubanyway, the idea... wiki links!
06:36.03Tekkublet users submit a page name for any item/NPC/faction, etc
06:36.39Tekkublike the aldor/scryer faction pages could have "Comparison of Aldor and Scryer rewards"
06:36.56Skyfireoh...
06:36.58Skyfirehuh
06:37.05Skyfirethat would be hard on the db, i think
06:37.07Tekkubso head users can link to less static pages for in-depth infos
06:37.53Skyfirei wish i was an admin...
06:37.56Skyfire;[
06:38.11SkyfireI have to add {{speedydelete}} to way too much crap
06:38.22Tekkub:) Basically the wiki's "External Links" in reverse
06:38.49Skosiriswhat if the External Links were sorted reverse-alphabetically?
06:38.55Skyfirelol ;P
06:38.56Skosiriswould be fair too, right? :)
06:39.05Tekkubthen Wowtail comes first
06:39.50TekkubI'll try to devise something based off the day
06:40.48Tekkubuhm... sky
06:41.11Tekkubif you're gonna speedydelete transclude pages, <noinclude> the {{Speedydelete}}
06:41.46Skyfirei did
06:41.50Skyfireor i thought i did
06:41.57Skyfireand it isn't transcluded anywhere anymore
06:41.59Skyfire;)
06:42.07TekkubComparison of Aldor and Scryer rewards is on Category:Articles for speedy deletion
06:43.08Skyfirehow?... i thought i removed the link... both of them
06:43.24Tekkubmaybe it's cached or something
06:43.34Skyfirei think it is
06:43.41Skyfirenot showing up like that for me :/...
06:44.07Skyfireyup, cached
06:46.27Skosirisbtw guys I'm sorry
06:46.36Skyfire?
06:46.37Skyfirefor?
06:46.37SkosirisI shouldn't come here and mess with your decisions :P
06:46.45Skyfirehehe, it's a wiki ;P
06:46.53Skyfiredemocracy and all that hoo-hah
06:47.41Skyfiredid you touch the templates -_-
06:47.56Skosirisof course not
06:48.09Skyfireno, not you
06:48.19Skyfireheh
06:50.03Skyfirebtw, Tekkub, why is the bottom of http://www.wowwiki.com/Comparison_of_Aldor_and_Scryer_rewards showing up like it is?
06:50.22Skyfiresomething to do with the difference between the old <div> method of items and {{tooltip}}?
06:54.17Skyfireeh, he left me! ;(
06:56.28Skyfirebtw Skosiris, you've had a few items -not- update since last patch. is that normal?
06:57.28Skosirisyou mean that some item pages are still displaying the old 2.0.8 info?
06:57.52Skyfireyes
06:58.14Skosirisstill should fix itself automatically within the next 24 hours
06:58.20Skosirisjust give it some time :)
06:58.28Skosiristhe site needs to make sure the new items are real
06:58.38Skosirisoops
06:58.40Skyfireeh, ive now seen 3 articles that haven't fixed themselves... how much time do you give leeway wise?
06:58.41Skosiristhis should fix**
06:59.28Skosirisok I'll be honest
07:00.05Skosiriswe haven't done any push of data since the last 5 days
07:00.33Skosiriswe've got the week off (no school) so we went pay a visit to our parents
07:00.38Skosiriswe: mystadio and I
07:00.47SkosirisI mean, he visited his parents and I visited mine
07:00.51Skosiris(we're not brothers)
07:01.13Skosirisanyway, we're compiling the files we've received in the past 5 days at this very moment
07:01.24Skosiristhis should result in some new items, and *many* updated ones
07:02.10Skyfirekool
07:02.12Skyfire:]
07:07.12Skyfireargh, we got lazy with http://www.wowwiki.com/Comparison_of_Aldor_and_Scryer_rewards
07:07.43Skyfirethey're all in the form of {{:Item/Tooltip}}, instead of the proper {{:Item}} (with noinclude tags on the proper item article)

07:09.42Skosirispages are cached for 24 hours, so it might take up to 24 hours for a page to refresh =/
07:09.56Skyfiredoh! xD
07:10.31Skosirisor I could force some pages to refresh just to make sure everything is okay :)
07:11.19Skyfireeh, the former works
07:15.10Skosiriscould you list me a few items that changed in patch 2.0.10?
07:16.18Skosiris1 or 2 of them
07:16.49Skosirisbtw     http://secretgeek.net/ms_search.asp   <-- this is hilarious

13:31.10CrakeHunterhello, a quick question . im going to start to play for the first time after the new patch is d/l. is a undead warlock to hard for the beginning?
13:31.22CrakeHunteri dont want to end up frustrated
13:31.42PyrrhusWell
13:31.53PyrrhusDepends.. how fast can you adapt?
13:31.58Pyrrhusare you a quick learner?
13:32.28CrakeHunterhmm, mmorpg wise no ;)
13:32.53CrakeHunterso far i have only played guild wars. but i didnt like thtat... so i bought wow
13:33.26CrakeHunterso which combinations are good for starters? (besides paladin )
13:34.16equiraptorHunters can be good, just make sure you actually read your quest logs, rather than just assuming you can figure everything out.
13:34.25equiraptorThere are a few things around level 10 that can be confusing if you don't.
13:35.03equiraptorRogues can be good in the early levels, but I find they get a bit harder as the level, and because they're common, it can be very hard to find good things to do in endgame.
13:36.48CrakeHunterok... hmm just read s.th. about draenei... too bad i dont own burning crusade... ;)
13:36.58CrakeHunterthey look kewl

14:36.39Tekkubwhat should I call glyphs, inscriptions, arcanum, mantles of the dawn.. all those "prepackaged" enchant items?
14:37.17Tekkublike, a page title for a list of them all
14:37.44Tekkub"Instachants, just add water"
14:38.06Tekkub"No enchanter needed"
14:40.14TekkubI don't want to call em "Enchanting items" cause to me that implies items used by the enchanting tradeskill

16:32.02MontaggQuestion for the masses: I'm trying to install BC on another computer. I've tried and failed a couple times. Now, when I try to run the BC installer, it says "Burning Crusade already installed" even before I've installed it.
16:32.52MontaggI think this is due to a partial install that occured when one of the CDs locked up. I've copied the contents of the CDs to the hard drive and I'm running from there. Anyone know what I have to delete so WoW doesn't think I have BC installed anymore?

17:12.07CrakeHunterhello, if have a problem with the game. im a undead hexmaster (lev 5). now if i take the zeppelin from one land to the other. the game somehow stops while showing me the route on the great map
17:12.25CrakeHunterstops means i can stil move my mousepointer. but then for a minute nothing happens. then i rebooted
17:12.50Kirkburn|WiiHullo
17:13.09Kirkburn|WiiHmm, odd, you can't switch continents
17:13.33Kirkburn|WiiAre youa  brand new player?
17:13.41CrakeHunteryes
17:13.57Kirkburn|WiiThen firstly, welcome :)
17:14.18CrakeHunterthank you :)
17:14.28Kirkburn|WiiNot heard of that issue before - you have a PC that's reasonably specced?
17:14.28CrakeHunterwondering, if i can do anything to restor eme character. cause right now whenever i reenter the game shows me on a zeppelin then happens the above: (
17:15.08Kirkburn|WiiIf it keeps happened for, say, half an hour, do this:
17:15.30CrakeHuntero, i should let it load for half an hor?
17:15.38Kirkburn|WiiNo, I mean keep trying :P
17:15.45Kirkburn|WiiIt might be that the other continent is down
17:16.25CrakeHunterhrrr my undead forces have doomed this continent :D
17:16.35Kirkburn|WiiIf it happens for ages and you don't hear any news about problems, create a new character and send a support ticket on that
17:16.49bleetahif your system is scratching the bottom of the minimum specifictions, it's possible that you're lagging out whilst it tries to load the other continent and thus crashing.
17:17.11CrakeHunterno it isnt , 4000+ amd64, 7600 gs , 1,5 gb ram
17:17.24CrakeHuntereverythign on high tho

17:29.06Kirkburn|WiiYeah
17:29.17Tekkubcan I call em Instachants?

17:43.21Tekkuband people might want to add other links besides the templated ones
17:43.44Tekkuba template for just a section heading is kinda pointless :)
17:44.57Tekkubnow if it was like {{Elinks|item|1234}} I could understand
17:44.57Tekkubbut when you make the other template call too? meh, redundant
17:44.57watchoutyeah, I thought that too TBH... the first time I saw that elinks template, I thought it was a generalization of elinksitem/mob

17:57.10Tekkub<3 wikipedia
17:57.20bleetahwowwiki > wikipedia
17:58.05bleetah'cept when it's about detachable penises
17:58.12watchoutwell in maths, wikipedia is definitely on top
17:58.58bleetahmeh, check out the essjay incident, and what Wales is doing to try to regain any form of credibility for either himself, or Wikipedia
17:59.07bleetahand don't rely on the wikipedia entry about it, either
17:59.23watchoutor http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theoretical_computer_science
17:59.56watchoutwhats essjay?
18:00.26bleetaha guy who'd made it all the way to being an employee of Wales' corporate arm.. senior wikipedia editor
18:00.56bleetahhad done a number of edits based on his claimed profile, which included a doctorate or two, tenure as a theological professor, 30-40 years old
18:01.08bleetahturned out he was 24 y/o, no doctorates, etc. etc. etc.
18:01.32watchoutwell, all that stuff can backfire
18:01.34bleetahthose who'd been questioning his authority on certain edits had been shouted down 'coz of his alleged qualifications to speak on the topic
18:01.42bleetahyeah
18:02.00watchoutwikipedia is still an awesome project
18:02.02bleetahanyways, they've had to look at introducing some method of verification for senior editors, and stuff
18:02.09bleetahin theory, yes
18:02.18Tekkubsuch are the issues of social projects
18:02.48Tekkubat least with WoW we have one final difinitve source for all info
18:02.58Tekkubthere is no questioning Blue
18:03.22bleetahin practice, as highlighted by this incident, the 'argument from authority' turns out to be completely falsifiable, therefore until such time as the editors, senior editors, the arbitration board, etc. can be verifiably relied upon, it's difficult to even have some small amount of believability for any article
18:03.31bleetahinsofar as reading a topic which one doesn't already know
18:04.08bleetahsure, the idea of the project is awesome
18:04.13bleetahit's implementation blows goats
18:04.24watchoutbleetah, you just need to add some brain when looking up information
18:05.00bleetaher yeah... but the editors feed on self congratulations, etc.

18:05.17sancusTekkub: Would that Blue actually was correct more than 50% of the time :P
18:05.46bleetahfor example
18:05.48sancusAnd that's when they're posting facts about the game, not even when the CMs get all uppity and think they're game designers.
18:06.21bleetahthis essjay guy wrote a missive email to some lawyer lecturer type who'd dared to suggest that wikipedia isn't a decent source of information, and wouldn't be acceptable as a source. he ranted on about his 'qualifications', etc.
18:06.23watchoutand bleetah... In a scientific magazine, one can still write 100% bullshit in there, and if the boss there messes it up, it will be printed too
18:07.02bleetahyes, but at least that journal will have the name, the quals of both the article writer and the boss, etc.
18:07.26watchoutwikipedia could introduce "trusted editors" or alike
18:07.36bleetahwikipedia can write articles, editors and all claim some form on un-verifiable authority
18:07.42sancusthey'd have to learn how to check credentials first :P
18:07.50watchoutsure :P
18:08.05bleetahthe fact that Wales hired a fraud says a lot ;) :P
18:08.23sancusprob feels really stupid now and won't make the same mistake again
18:08.26sancushopefully
18:08.37watchoutI guess that too
18:08.45sancuswikipedia tends to be a decent resource
18:08.55sancusit's when you use it as your ONLY resource that you're fucked
18:09.12sancusbut that goes for any documents
18:09.37watchoutit's a typical executive error, just many fire at wikipedia - especially scientific magazines because WP steals their customers - because it's open source
18:10.17sancusof course, lots of academics are going to hate wikipedia
18:10.41sancusbecause the very concept of being able to write academic stuff without going through the required maze first is anathema to them
18:11.22sancusBut the required maze is there for a reason and isn't always stupid, though sometimes it is
18:12.08kasohey what the hell
18:12.15kasowhen did thottbot start using blizzard item ids?
18:12.20watchoutyou know... the professors at my university often refer to wikipedia "if you want to get more info" but tell us to check everything first ;)
18:12.57sancuskaso: never?
18:13.40kasohttp://www.thottbot.com/i4964
18:13.41kasothey do now
18:14.08sancushm
18:14.13sancusLooks like they do both now
18:14.20sancusIf you search for goblin smasher, it gives you a differentl ink

18:15.11kasohmm, yes but all the links on the search results page are in the new format
18:15.17kasoperhaps theyre part way through converting
18:15.25kasosee: http://www.thottbot.com/?s=Goblin
18:15.38watchoutyeah... time to edit the elinks-template? :D
18:15.49sancusyeah
18:15.51kasothough the "of the X" links are still old kind
18:16.06sancusMost likely they'll leave the old links working as well
18:16.14sancusI don't know why thott didn't use the in-game IDs in the first place
18:16.17Tekkubslow people
18:16.20sancusI told him to do that like 3 years ago!
18:16.28sancusbut it's good to see he finally fixed that
18:16.30watchoutsancus, I guess performance issues
18:16.35Tekkubno, you :P
18:16.38kasothey didnt because in the old days they indexed each "of the" item seperately
18:16.53kasothough i guess they could have used a itemID:ofTheID
18:17.46sancusTekkub: I don't even play this terrible game anymore, why would I keep up to date with what item sites are doing? :P

18:44.53Tekkubit's the only orc class I'd play that I can't play on tauren

18:51.06watchoutthat was a ambiguous statement...

19:51.43Bagginswwya its a classic
19:51.58Bagginswwits also for a fund raiser.

19:53.33Skyfirebaggins, why did you give the daemon-kiljaeden section a speculation tag?
19:54.07Skyfirethe some fans contend part?
19:55.37Bagginswwwell, ya there is a disagreement
19:55.56Bagginswwwe've discussed this in here before that discriptions in ROTH were pretty vague
19:56.02Bagginswwjust that "similarities" were seen
19:56.36Bagginswwragestorm contends that its an all out retcon removal of kil'jaeden's warcraft II apperance
19:56.47Bagginswwactually he's probably the only person I've discussed that has that view
19:57.14Bagginswwothers I've discussed it with think the book was vague enough it can cover all previous interpretations and explanations in other sources
19:57.14Skyfirekil'jaeden has changed though... :x
19:57.25Skyfireaha
19:57.27Bagginswwwell later sources claim he is the diceaver
19:57.33Bagginswwand can change his appearance
19:57.52Skyfirew1 actually has him as the deceiver... :O
19:57.56Skyfireiirc
19:57.58Bagginswwwell ya, that's true
19:58.12Bagginswwbut that power has to do with how he can appear before people
19:58.16Skyfireyes
19:58.26Bagginswwanycase ROTH describes him as having horns
19:58.38Bagginswwwhich can describe his warcraft II appearance, LOL
19:58.47Bagginswwhe didn't have horns in Warcraft III
19:59.22Bagginswwother artistic renditions of him show a lack of horns as well
19:59.34watchoutah Skyfire I mixed up the days :P
19:59.53Bagginswwhttp://www.wowwiki.com/Image:Kiljaedendeciever.jpg I think that's the samwise version?
20:00.25Skyfirewhat do you mean, watchout?
20:01.04Skyfirehe has horns in w1 too ;P
20:02.28Bagginswwright he had horns in w1 in the "daemon/orc-like" form
20:02.31Bagginswwhe didn't have horns in the "eredar" form in warcraft 3
20:02.35Bagginswwjust the crest
20:03.21Bagginswwhe was shown as blending ered crest, and horns in Shadow & Light, but that was apparently to point out he is capable of changing his shape
20:04.12Bagginswwhttp://www.wowwiki.com/Image:Kiljaedenallendilling.jpg
20:04.23watchoutSkyfire, Gryphen changed the template yesterday, at about the same time
20:04.37Bagginswwwhat si the BC template?
20:04.38Skyfireyah
20:04.45Bagginswwthe one that puts the tiny BC next to an element
20:05.16Tekkub{{bc-inline}}
20:05.21Skyfireyes
20:06.23Bagginswwty
20:08.05Bagginswwhttp://www.wowwiki.com/Necrolyte
20:08.09Bagginswwadded it to that
20:14.40Skyfirewhats the name of the slot where you would put a wand, except for a Druid/Pal/Sham?
20:14.52Skyfirecannot, for the life of me, remember those items
20:15.34Bagginswwlibram, relic?
20:15.53Bagginswwidols
20:16.00Skyfireaha
20:16.05Bagginswwtotems and stones
20:16.22Bagginswwrelics = libram, totems, stones, idols
20:16.36Bagginswwor so says wowwiki
20:16.51Bagginswwok stones were changed to "relics"
20:16.57Bagginswwin patch 2.0
20:17.17Bagginswwhttp://www.wowwiki.com/Relic
20:17.39Bagginswwits in the offhand slot rather wand slot right?
20:18.13Bagginswwhmm maybe you are right
20:18.31BagginswwI thought warlocks could use wands?
20:18.35Skyfirethey can
20:18.47Skyfirethey can also switch their wand out for a stone of their choice
20:18.57Bagginswwahh interesting
20:19.08BagginswwI think mages should get something too ;)
20:21.05Skyfire... I'm just fine, tyvm >:)
20:21.14BagginswwI'm a mage, ;)
20:21.28BagginswwI'm just saying having more gear to use would be nice, :)
20:22.00Bagginswwlike maybe something that turns decursing into mass decursing
20:22.05Bagginswwmaybe they could call them "amulets"
20:22.24Bagginswwor charms or something
20:23.28Skyfirehuh
