Easier editing

The Show preview button (right next to the Save page button) lets you see how your changes will look before saving the page. You can use Show preview as many times as you like until you get the page how you want it. You can also edit the whole page at one time, as opposed to by section, by clicking the Edit tab at the top of the page. Hopefully these little shortcuts will make it easier for you to get the desired result when you're editing, and save you a little time. Thanks for working on the wiki! — Moydow ^(talk) 02:42, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

Image uploads

Please see our policy on image naming and categorization. For consistency and ease of use throughout the wiki, image names should contain the name of the game or its abbreviation and a one or two word description. All images also need the appropriate categories added, as well as the guide-specific image category (e.g. [[Category:Game Name images]]). Thanks for helping to keep our images neat! — Moydow ^(talk) 02:42, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

Hi, can I ask you to look at the Policy on image categorisation? You uploaded some images for the MapleStory guide, which appeared to be icons, so I've added that category and Category:MapleStory skill images to the images. In future, can you please add the equivalent categories to any images you add? For example, a screenshot of a skill would go in Category:MapleStory skill images and Category:Screenshots. Thanks, Moydow ^(talk) 20:39, 23 March 2010 (UTC)

Yet again, I find myself reminding you to please add a description and categories to any images you upload. You have been making very good edits everywhere else in the MapleStory guide. Don't be discouraged from continuing your great work there. I'm just telling you this to help you out in the long-term. But do try to follow the image policy as best you can. Thanks for understanding. Moydow ^{T · C · Boxes} 20:55, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

Dual Blade skills

Instead of cluttering up Thief Skills, wouldn't it be a better idea to put Dual Blade skills in Dual Blade skills? -- Imjon 20:19, 23 March 2010 (UTC)

MapleStory work

Great job!

A little thank you…
For adding information, reverting vandalism and fixing misinformation on MapleStory pages.

Hi, great job on the MapleStory edits and fixes you've been doing! Keep up the great work! :D — najzere^T 20:49, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

Category system

The image categorisation system is used to keep all images for a certain game in one place, where anyone who needs them can find them. For example, if you needed an image for Super Mario 64, you would look in Category:Super Mario 64 images. On the other hand, if you want to upload an image from Super Mario 64, you would type [[Category:Super Mario 64 images]] into the description box. But, you must also use a category that sorts by type of image. For example, the icons you uploaded for MapleStory go into Category:Icons. A screenshot goes into Category:Screenshots, characters in Category:Characters, and so on. The Image policy page has a list of these types of categories. (Category:Guide-specific images isn't used on images, so leave that one out.) Basically, when uploading an image, it needs at least two categories: the game category and the main image category. If you need help, just ask. Thanks, Moydow ^{T · C · Boxes} 15:36, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

Hi, you're starting to learn how the categories work. But just one thing: to place an image in a category, put the name of the category between two square brackets. Copy this into the description box (but not from this page's edit box): [[Category:MapleStory skill images]]

Also, you don't have to re-upload the image to fix a wrong category. Just click the 'Edit' tab at the top of the screen to edit it like a guide page. Another category is also required: for an icon, like you're uploading, put in the following: [[Category:Icons]]

I've fixed the last few you uploaded. Look at the edit box on one of those pages to see what I did. Let me know if you need any help! :) Moydow ^{T · C · Boxes} 21:53, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Good, I'm finally getting somewhere with these categories.. anyways, thanks for catching my back with these. Still kind of confused a little bit when it comes to what category applies to an image. What happened with triple blow was simply trial an error. I managed to figure it out eventually though. Also when adding the categories, does the bar on the bottom of the image screen appear automatically after a few minutes or is it something I'm doing wrong? User:Zienth

No problem, glad to help. The last few images you've uploaded have been done perfectly. There are a few categories used alongside the game category, used to separate images into types. Icons go in Category:Icons, screenshots in Category:Screenshots, boxart in Category:Box artwork, character art in Category:Characters, and items in Category:Items. Images that can't be sorted go in Category:Artwork. Those are the main ones. The bar at the bottom of the screen (Categories:...) appears if categories have been added correctly. Blue links if a category exists, red if it doesn't. On an unrelated topic: when signing your name, use four tildes (~~~~) to automatically create a link to your userpage, and a timestamp. Moydow ^{T · C · Boxes} 22:21, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Remember that on pages that you want to categorize, omit the colon that precedes the word "Category." If you don't, it just makes a link to the category. The differences are as follows:

• [[:Category:MapleStory images]] (a plain link to the category; disabled here to display the code)
• [[Category:MapleStory images]] (this categorizes a page; it does not create a link; it is disabled here to display the code)

No more undoing Spadow's translations

Zienth, please refrain from rolling back Spadow's translations. I don't care what web translation engine you are pumping the Korean through, Spadow is a native speaker of Korean, and therefore is more qualified to provide translations than you are. If I see you reverting his translations again, you will face a ban for a short period of time. If you strongly object to Spadow's translations, please provide proof of why you think your translations are more accurate than his before reverting them. Thank you. Procyon 20:00, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

1.2.318

Do NOT change any of the skill or monster pages until this update goes live in KMS. -- Imjon 03:37, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, that part is fine. I meant how you added the new level range on the ToT page. And sorry if I sounded angry in what I just said^. :) -- Imjon 03:40, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

While it would be a great idea to get started on it now, I think we should wait until it's in the real server. Everything in 1.2.318 is subject to change. But, if it does go through, I honestly have no idea how to make it all fit. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. -- Imjon 03:48, 18 June 2010 (UTC)
