DPL list of NPCs

As you can see, the way exp variation is written in articles makes the DPL greps from NPC articles quite ...colorfull. Would it be better to have fields for min and max exp values for the NPCs from the template calculates average exp worth and that average would be used in the NPC listing OR Come up a policy about how to write down the exp values of mobs, so that the listing works. Like rounding to nearest k, having space before and after -, having each number show in k's and so on. BlackSmith 13:05, 19 October 2008 (EEST)

Layout

The new layout sucks in my opinion, the centered headings with left-aligned information doesn't look good. --Nuane

You can hone it yourself too. Illustarte what can be done to better it if you cant do it yourself. Comments like 'that sucks' wont help nor make anything any better. BlackSmith 22:00, 27 September 2008 (EEST)

Finger bug

Oh, and also you screwed up by changing the template, see the finger part in Hell's dojo for an example. Please DO NOT fiddle with the templates at all if you won't bother testing them first with several articles. If you do a change to a template, it should never require change in every article. As a matter of fact, this is approximately the millionth time your template changes have broken something, so i'm seriously considering locking all templates for good. --Nuane

FYI Templates can not be "previewn" in that sense. You can test a existing template to non-exisisting article but not vice versa. Altough not this is not the place for it, you can read more about wiki editing from http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Editing Most of templates are already locked down. Feel free to take part honing them at their own discussion pages or about templates in generally at talk:templates. The finger bug was now fixed. BlackSmith 22:08, 27 September 2008 (EEST)
