Re: Image templates
Hey Kroq, thanks... :) Oh, and soon time for an archive ;) EbonySkyrim (talk) 10:34, April 9, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Test templates
Yeah, you can name your testing pages/templates to whatever you like as long as your username is part of it. It doesn't necessarily always have to have "Test" in the title. :) — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  21:36, April 15, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Dispel
Hi, Thanks for the positive comment! About Dispel: I just took a look at the page and noticed that the article is very Oblivion-oriented (all the links point to Oblivion articles, etc.), and was wondering how I should proceed. Would you suggest creating a Morrowind section, creating a new article, or simply adding Morrowind to Appearances? Thanks, 02:01, April 18, 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the quick reply. Both Dispel (Morrowind) and Restore Health (Morrowind) are on my to-do list and will get done within a couple of days. :) 06:30, April 18, 2013 (UTC)


 * I'm in the process of updating Dispel links at the moment. I'm just not sure what to do about MW ingredient articles because of how the infobox template works. Having "Dispel (Morrowind)" in the infobox doesn't look right, and I don't know how to take care of that. (See Bungler's Bane for an example.) 00:38, April 20, 2013 (UTC)


 * That's great news for the template, especially if it will fix everything with one change. Nice work! I don't mind doing some of the more tedious things around the wiki, but if you have tricks up your sleeve that will take care of problems in one fell swoop all I can do is applaud. How did you learn about editing templates, by the way? That's one area where I'm clueless. BTW: Regarding your message on Tomb's talk, I can confirm that there are ingredients with less than four effects in Morrowind. 15:48, April 20, 2013 (UTC)

Re: References in "Appearances"
For both of your questions, you should go ahead an create a CT about making possible changes to the Appearances section. Not something me alone could call judgement on.

I am for your idea of adding a reference to where the page in appearance was "Mentioned Only", not just for proof, but, I want to see that line of text in my game with my own eyes! Did you know Blacklight was mentioned in ...oh, wait, no you don't, not yet. :P — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  19:42, April 18, 2013 (UTC)


 * About #2 on Talk:Uderfrykte Matron, I think you may have been referring to me? I recall saying that the individual color schemes for each game is great (I love that aspect of the wiki!), but they're not useful for the casual reader to identify which game the article is referring to. Colors are ambiguous, blue may indicate Skyrim to us, but the word "Skyrim" is obvious and immediately understood by everyone in a way that a colors could never accomplish. Honestly, I found it a horrible nuisance to scroll down to the bottom of the page for Appearances before I became familiar with the wiki colors.


 * I've grown to appreciate the game name being eliminated from leads, especially in location and character articles, but at the same time I can't help but feel that having that information at the top of the page was a good thing. Unfortunately I don't have any suggestions, other than perhaps adding appearances to infoboxes as I've seen elsewhere. But that is often not an elegant solution, it works OK when there's only a game or two, but it can get ugly real quick. Regards, 00:59, April 19, 2013 (UTC)

Re: SkyrimIngredients
If it's all done and ready to be used, then go ahead an transfer the content over to the template. I don't know what to do about the "for sec" area. Is it really that important to be listed in the template, how many seconds eating an ingredients causes the effect to last? I guess maybe it could be useful, but OblivionIngredients and MorrowindIngredients don't list the "for sec" property, but then again, it could be something that was added for Skyrim only. I could check in the Oblivion and Morrowind CS if it shows duration of effects when an ingredient is eaten. Which ingredients in Skyrim only has one effect? The Chokeberry ingredient in Oblivion only has one as far as I know, oh, and also the Lichor and Ambrosia. Maybe get Jimeee's opinion on this, because I believe he's the one that added the addition of the "for sec" in the ingredient template. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  17:53, April 20, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Journal
Hi Kroq, looks fine to me. Table's fine... When doing journals for Oblivion I have gone the easy way and copied/pasted from another quest. But as there are so few in Skyrim yet... :) and they are a little different ingame as well. I'll be adding some too when I eventually get back to Skyrim LOL... whenever that happens.

Re: Edit
The trivia about the glass in Hearthfire was about not being able to create it from malachite ore or refined malachite in the game. Not in real life.

The part about the "glass" appearance of armor and weapons would be better suited on the Glass armor and weapons page, since this glass in Hearthfire has nothing to do with the formation of glass armor and weapons. — TombRaiser  SPEAK!  04:25, April 22, 2013 (UTC)
