TO-DO LIST
Here's a to-do list for RuneScape:


 * Add more information to all the guides.
 * Improve the skill guides.
 * Vastly improve the 'members' quests' walkthroughs.
 * Get to work on the Construction Guide.

Archived
I have archived the old talk page, as it was pretty old. Richard 23:41, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Pictures
Thissly needs pictures. It just looks so... bland. I'm suggesting that maybe some pics could be added to the skill guides right now. Anyone agree/disagree? --Richard 03:41, 17 April 2006 (UTC) Agree!

Couldnt agree more.--Megabug 16:21, 27 August 2006 (CDT)

Vandalism
One or more vandals have been going around adding rude sentences as well as references to websites and email addresses. I've reverted everything I could find already, which has included stuff in the members and item price guides as well as this page. However this particular vandal is very sneaky and seems to have added stuff to the end of sentences where it's hard to notice. Please read through some of the guides to see if you can find anything that I missed. Shadowsong 22:27, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
 * You know you can just go to history on a page to see who has edited them and exactly what changes they've made?


 * Vandalism? Grrr....hope they get punished--Megabug 16:27, 27 August 2006 (CDT)

Readability
I read a few pages, and they managed to use a lot of terms that I'm not very familiar with. I played Runescape for a while (although it WAS quite a bit ago) too. I think it'd be good if some of the runescape terminology intra-wiki linked to a terminology page and specifically to the section explaining it. Most of these guides are pretty slim on the intra-wiki links and I think this would make everything completly clear to those who are looking for info (since they are often not the best players at a game). -- Mason11987 (Talk - Contributions) 16:18, 4 May 2006 (PDT)

Just to refresh you, LOL means Laugh out loud. Hope that helps--Megabug 16:24, 27 August 2006 (CDT)

Construction Guide has been started!
Hey everyone, I started the Construction Guide! If you want to add to it you can. Go to the Skills section of this page. --Megabug 16:20, 27 August 2006 (CDT)

And now a new quest guide is with us...
Eyes of Glouphrie quest guide has been added! Hooray! --Megabug 17:24, 27 August 2006 (CDT)

RuneScapeWiki
Hello world, I don't know if this has been discussed before, but I was searching for good guides for RuneScape and discovered http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page. This wiki guides seem to be more complete than ours. I think that we should use this wiki as are main source of information for RuneScape guides. Or we could just have a link from our main runescape page to runescape.wikia.com O_o Darth Vader 007 10:09, 9 February 2007 (CST)
 * Copying their content is immoral and would just lead to disparity. If you want to propose anything major (such as outsourcing our RuneScape guide (or part of it) to their wiki), please do so in community issues. --DrBob (Talk) 11:26, 9 February 2007 (CST)

The ToC
Hey, is there any specific reason most of the pages don’t have links in the ToC? It’s so weird that most of the ToC pages are just lists of links to more pages. Since there are so many hidden pages it’s also hard to find what is currently being looked for. Just asking so I don’t unintentionally kill the guide adding missing links.

Also, is it just me or is this guide too subpaged? Example: Beef and Snake (a lot of the specific monster pages have only 1 sentence of content). Just giving you a heads up on cleanup that will be happening unless there is some sort of valid reason for this. --Zaiqukaj 08:29, 5 April 2008 (CDT)
 * Do what you will with it! It's a complete mess, and as you say, there is too much subpaging and too many links missing from the ToC. --DrBob (talk) 08:39, 5 April 2008 (CDT)
 * Oh, good, I'm not just easily confused. In my mind any random could-be new user that first finds us by stumbling upon this guide will become miffed and leave. The guide has a lot of good information too. This is going to be my new highest priority after getting those darn bulbapedia enconter tables into place for Pokémon Mystery Dungeon. --Zaiqukaj 09:00, 5 April 2008 (CDT)
 * Indeed, the oversubpaging will need to be fixed, and turned into something more like what MapleStory has. -- 14:51, 5 April 2008 (CDT)
