Hi, Spionida! How are you doing? Ssmiley happy.png When you have time, please create your user page so we get to know you better! (I confess red-links give me headaches haha) See you! Ssmiley happy smiling.pngValento msg 17:49, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

OK --Spionida (talk) 17:50, 18 December 2014 (UTC)
Hahah, lovely. – Valento msg 17:50, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

NPC service categories[edit]

Those should all be lower-case, as per the existing Category:Guild weaponsmiths. If you need help with template editing, let me know. —Dr Ishmael User Dr ishmael Diablo the chicken.png 03:52, 9 January 2015 (UTC)

As I was doing it, I had a bet with myself. If I had chosen "Guild weapon smiths", it should be "Guild Weaponsmiths" and vice versa. If you look, half where W and the other half w. Similarly for Armor and armor. Still, fine. I'll change them. --Spionida (talk) 03:58, 9 January 2015 (UTC)

Sorry, little dude[edit]

You need to put Sharks into the Fish category, because sharks are fish. Please stop being a noob. --Lustre Of Havoc 01:51, 25 February 2015 (UTC)

Well that was uncalled for. Category:Sharks is an actual subcategory of Category:Fishes, and whether or not the shark category should be used (for whatever purpose) is worth discussing. Tyndel (talk) 02:00, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
My friend tried discussing and got blocked because this noob kept reverting it instead of talking it over. --Lustre Of Havoc 02:03, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
Also, all the shark links that Spionida put up lead back to the shark NPC, not the shark enemy type. Just thought I'd clue you guys into that mistake, as well. --Lustre Of Havoc 02:07, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
Just checked, and Sharks count towards the Fish Slayer achievement, so they need to be changed back to the Fish race. Sorry that you're wrong, Spionida. --Lustre Of Havoc 02:16, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
Yes, sharks are fish. That's why Category:Sharks is a subcategory of [[:Category:Fishes]] (ugh, really should get that one renamed to the proper plural "Fish"). There's no reason we can't sub-divide the game's mechanical Slayer designations (which aren't always about race, anyway). —Dr Ishmael User Dr ishmael Diablo the chicken.png 02:45, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
But sharks ARE fish, why do they need a separate category? You may as well put every type of fish in its own category. --Lustre Of Havoc 02:53, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
We can, but we want to avoid trivial categories that only contain one or two pages. Shark is a non-trivial subcategory.--Relyk ~ talk < 05:44, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
(Reset indent) I blocked both Spionida and Louise for an equal length of time for blindly reverting each other; comment at the bottom of User talk:Louise#Revert War.
I don't see a problem with keeping the status quo, and denoting sharks as a subcategory (organisational wiki category) of the slayer main category, fish.
@ish: The Category:Fish vs Category:Fishes thing is dicussed briefly on Category talk:Fishes, but yeah it looks awful. -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 08:15, 25 February 2015 (UTC)

Stop this[edit]

Instead of just reverting everything Louise does, how about you get a second or third opinion. Stop creating more problems for this war. --Lustre Of Havoc 23:08, 25 February 2015 (UTC)

Louise, please don't post on another's account or prompt them to do so. Thanks. --Spionida (talk) 23:09, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
This is isn't an other account FYI. I don't want to drag this thing longer than it should be. I put the sharks in the two sub-categories, waiting for someone to edit it further, but you decided to edit them back, so don't blame me. Louise 23:13, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
If you look, I edited the NPC infobox to list them. That's a/the solution. can't see anyone objecting. --Spionida (talk) 23:15, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
The thing is, when you post something in the infobox, it's supposed to lead to another page like the race of the NPC in question, like the Skale or the Drake. In this case, since the Shark doesn't have a page like this, it leads to nothing. Louise 23:18, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
But it works for all the others. It can be fixed. Not everything has to work immediately. Work in progress. --Spionida (talk) 23:20, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
