Ask me (almost) anything!

You can ask me just about anything, just by typing in a title in the box to the right, and then clicking the button. You'll be taken to an edit box with your title already in place, where you can pose your question. Don't forget to sign / date it with 4 tilde characters!

Interests within / about Elanthia

The wizard profession, and associated skills and spells.
Technical discussions about Mac OSX, Lich, Front Ends and Macros / Scripting.

Template / article design for GSWiki.
Elves - with a specific but unmentioned focus.

To do list

Templates

Evaluate use of 'Help file' style template, assess if it should become a template
In April, begin discussion on whether or not InputBox has a standard play to generate 'Talk' information.
- First, find a way to overload placement, so that it isn't at the bottom, but at the top
- Second, define risk
Need an improved format / template for scripts
Need a format / template for Game Entry (OS) help type information

Regions

Sort out in-game regions for GSWiki.
Confer on proper categorization / layout to visually show regions on GSWiki.

Climates

Identify all possible climates in-game.
Find way to visually show climates on GSWiki.

Terrain

Identify all possible terrain in-game.
Find way to visually show terrain on GSWiki.

Longer term projects

Incorporate regions, climates, terrain and associated display with forage and maps.
Update herbs, woods, and appropriate forage-able items with appropriate information about where to find.

Questions

Is there a possibility of fumbling a check in the forage cascade?
Can InputBox be incorporated to search local page lists?
How do I best to incorporate script / macro submissions from users?

Activities Completed

Wizard beginner's guide
Redirect additional information template
SP template (add non-breaking spaces, probably deprecated)
log2 template using PRE to preserve spaces and line returns as viewed in game
Updated Foraging with cascading check messages
Too many tweaks here and there
Re-consumed (borrowed / stole?) this wonderful user page design from User:BELATHUS <- credit, may make a template!
Recreated the Wizard (front end) Help file that is distributed, to provide a linkable reference throughout GSWiki.

The Deprecated Files List

Do we need these?

Hybrid creature

Stone family creatures

The Marked Delete Files List

All cleaned up! New files being sought even now.

Interests outside of Elanthia

Fairly private, so don't expect to see much here.
