Thanks for helping clean up the wiki info. For the dollar values, gold coins were intentionally priced at $100 even though it wasn't the lowest common denominator -- I put more comments at the top of [[Talk:Trading]]. --[[User:Tycho44|Tycho44]] 03:04, 18 May 2006 (BST)

''*ping*'' On the [[Animals]] page you said that Shark bites persist, but this should probably be reported as one of the [[Bugs]]. On the [[Game Design]] page, the first section (Persistent Shark Bites), [[User:Simon|Simon]] claims that:

==Shaman redirects==

:''Response: [[User talk:John Sevier#Misspelled SCS page]]''
Re: [[Shaman]]. Yeah, my thinking was redirecting the village shaman names to the shaman page since they aren't moving right now. However, I think it is beneficial to keep the wandering shaman articles listed individually so that chronological reports can easily be made and very geeky shaman tracking data can be extrapolated. --[[User:Lint|Lint]] 04:46, 23 May 2006 (BST)
 
  
:You're right, tracking them over time would be interesting and probably insightful. How about redirecting their pages to [[Shaman]] and tracking them by commenting out previous date/time information each time the table is updated? The advantages would be that we would have all shaman information in one place and that each sighting would require only one edit. It'd be tricker to update, but not terribly difficult. A few comment tags in the code and an explanation in the article should be enough for most users to understand the process. — [[User:Elembis|Elembis]] 04:54, 23 May 2006 (BST)
 
  
::I'm not sure if the current table layout would work because it would become increasingly difficult to dig through the growing commented code to record new data. Will the data be stored under headings for each shaman to allow for quick section edits? --[[User:Lint|Lint]] 05:12, 23 May 2006 (BST)
 
  
:::Yes, code clutter could be a problem. I think the best way to limit it would be to leave the current table alone and put a big comment tag under it. It would look something like this (feel free to edit this yourself):

:::This would be accompanied by a note on the article: "When you see one of these [wandering] shamans, please edit this article and move the old GPS and time to the 'Previous Sightings' comment tag that you will see." Even if we don't do this, wandering shamans should get their own section in order to make updates easier to make and also easier to summarize (since edit summaries for section edits automatically start with the section's name).
 
 
 
:::BTW, I previously changed "coordinates of spring" to "coordinates" because springs are invisible and inseparable from their respective village shamans. Traders, on the other hand, can apparently leave their huts, which is why the related column header on [[Trader]] reads "coordinates of hut". &mdash; [[User:Elembis|Elembis]] 05:38, 23 May 2006 (BST)
 
 
 
::::I was just thinking... We could tear down the existing shaman pages to list only the most recent coordinate and timestamp. Then we hide the past positions wrapped in a <nowiki><noinclude></nowiki> tag. We then reference the individual pages using the composite page mechanics on the Shaman page. --[[User:Lint|Lint]] 06:02, 23 May 2006 (BST)
 
 
 
:::::''Beautiful''. If that works, and I don't see why it shouldn't if we use the <nowiki><nowiki> and <noinclude></nowiki> tags properly, the current locations of wandering shamans would be shown on [[Shaman]] and their rovings (and current positions) would be displayed on their respective pages. That sounds like a great plan. &mdash; [[User:Elembis|Elembis]] 07:31, 23 May 2006 (BST)

Thanks

Elembis, thanks for deleting the misspelled 'shartak cryptozoologcal society' page; I had thought I had done so but I believe a browser error prevented it. Much appreciated! --John Sevier 15:19, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Response: User talk:John Sevier#Misspelled SCS page


I uploaded the images to put on the clan's wiki page but removed them once I'd found better ones or had changed my mind. I don't plan on using the three in question any time soon so feel free to delete them from the wiki if you like. I'm sorry if this has been an inconvenience and will try to be more frugal in deciding what images to upload and making sure they're all in the public domain. -Tyler Whitney (12, August)

Just wanted to know if it's possible to view ALL logged kills within a 24 hour period, instead of the last three? Cthulhu
