Hello, GS4ALASTIR. I'm letting you know why I undid two recent edits that you made to [[Mana-Infused Armor]]. Your two edits consisted of moving a table that you previously created on the article from the "Additional Information" section to a section above the tiers for the item script. Per [[Gswiki:Style guide/Item scripts]], the tier benefit breakdown table is appropriate for the "Additional Information" section as it provides a side-by-side comparison of different tiers and their properties as opposed to a brief introduction about the item or information specific to a single tier. I realize that the various item script templates in their current state are very involved and can cause confusion due to their complexity. This is one of my roles as a moderator is to follow up on recent wiki edits to bring them in line with the style guide so that wiki contributors do not need to be overly concerned about general content edits. If you have any questions about the style guide for item scripts or in general, please do not hesitate to reach out to the wiki team or other knowledgeable players on the Gemstone [https://discord.com/channels/226045346399256576/1061330227843833926 Discord forum's wiki thread].

Hello, GS4ALASTIR. I'm letting you know why I undid two recent edits that you made to Mana-Infused Armor. Your two edits consisted of moving a table that you previously created on the article from the "Additional Information" section to a section above the tiers for the item script. Per Gswiki:Style guide/Item scripts, the tier benefit breakdown table is appropriate for the "Additional Information" section as it provides a side-by-side comparison of different tiers and their properties as opposed to a brief introduction about the item or information specific to a single tier. I realize that the various item script templates in their current state are very involved and can cause confusion due to their complexity. This is one of my roles as a moderator is to follow up on recent wiki edits to bring them in line with the style guide so that wiki contributors do not need to be overly concerned about general content edits. If you have any questions about the style guide for item scripts or in general, please do not hesitate to reach out to the wiki team or other knowledgeable players on the Gemstone Discord forum's wiki thread.

After consulting with the GM wiki team, I have reverted your last two edits to the Mana-Infused Armor article. Those two edits consisted of removing a significant amount of contributions made by other users. Please be aware that Gswiki:Policy addresses editing civily and respectfully. Removing the work of prior editors does not constitute a good faith edit, nor is it respectful.
While use of the itemtier templates themselves is optional for item script articles, the purpose of the templates is specifically to help set up the overall article. Gswiki:Style guide/Item scripts#Additional Information touches on this. Part of the reason for this is that some scripts have multiple layers of complexity, such as various interactive components with differing tiers, which result in the information associated with those items being too complex to function with the templates. However, overall page cohesion can still be maintained even when not using the itemtier templates. (You can see one article that does this with the Mini-Smelter.) The other part of the reason for this is that not all wiki contributors are comfortable using complex templates such as itemtier or itemtiermulti. While users should try to be familiar with the style guide, it isn't necessary for all users to be experts in all facets of it so long as they are able to get the information onto the wiki. One of the roles of moderators is to update user contributions to conform with the style guide, which includes adding in those optional templates for articles created (or edited) that are missing them.
You noted in your comment to me on my user talk page that you have been having difficulty navigating to the additional information portion of the Mana-Infused Armor article. After reverting your last two edits, I updated the header for the Tier Benefit Breakdown so that it is a level 2 header. This should allow you to easily navigate to the table via the article's table of contents by clicking on it directly while still presenting it in the appropriate portion of an item script article. If you have further questions about the style guide, the best place to ask them is on on the previously linked wiki thread. HOST-GSKEBECHET (talk) 09:17, 8 October 2024 (CDT)
