GWWT[edit]

that might not work as intended. You might want to try replacing the contents of your js page with {{subst:User:Chieftain Alex/GuildWars2WikiTools/install.js}} instead - a while ago I ported it to this wiki. Same as the original gwwt except its been modified to work on this wiki. -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 18:13, 7 March 2015 (UTC)

Thank You. I was gonna mess around with it and start looking for the correct one. I noticed immediately that it wasn't working. Good thing I still know how to wiki edit. User DrogoBoffin sig icon.png Drogo Boffin 04:35, 8 March 2015 (UTC)
So you need help making a sig, or are you unhappy with the styles you were trying out? -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 11:55, 8 March 2015 (UTC)
I'm trying to split my name up with two different colors. "Drogo" linking to my userpage and "Boffin" linking to my talk page. I have the coding it just wouldn't work properly. User DrogoBoffin sig icon.png Drogo Boffin 03:41, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
Here is what I had used before ''[[Image:User DrogoBoffin sig icon.png]]'''[[User:DrogoBoffin|<span style="color:red">Drogo</span>]]'''''[[User talk:DrogoBoffin|<span style="color:black">Boffin</span>]]'' everything is working properly but the link to my talk page.

Try it on another page - you're linking to the page that you're already on, which makes bold text bolder and removes links to the current page. I've put it on User:DrogoBoffin/sandbox to demonstrate. -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 07:43, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
I reckon you have too many apostrophes though - you have 2 at the start (open italics), 3 at the start of your username (open bold), 5 in the middle (close italics, close bold), and then another 2 random ones at the end that the wiki markup is ignoring. Perhaps remove two apostrophes either from the start (bold username, italic usertalk page), or from between the username + talk page (bold and italic username, italic only usertalk) -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 07:48, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
Been so long I didn't even think about the link not working because it was on the page. I hope I start to remember this stuff rather swiftly. I would also like to put a space between "Drogo" and "Boffin" so it shows "Drogo Boffin". Thank You again. User DrogoBoffin sig icon.png Drogo Boffin 20:19, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
Just remembered that I had it that way because I had all of the ways to do my name registered on the other wiki with them all linking to my main userpage. User DrogoBoffin sig icon.png Drogo Boffin 20:21, 10 March 2015 (UTC)

Per this revert[edit]

Why link to GWW articles, when we have GW2W articles of the same topic? 173.188.195.94 12:45, 4 September 2020 (UTC)

There were no links in just about every instance you changed and the GWW has expanded articles and more information see GWW:Fissure of woe vs Fissure of Woe. When referring to GW1 subjects the GWW has all the information and would save the trouble of having to bring that information here.
