I don't quite understand this, but it looks very clever. --Jackard 13:01, 7 February 2008 (EST)

No hard feelings.
your questions about Category:Stone

All worked out, thanks. I should sleep more and refrain from editing the wiki when not ;) Thanks for (repeatedly) cleaning up after me, too. --Koltom
qd question
Is it possable to get a blank space character in qd? Thanks in advance, Hex Decimal 00:34, 26 February 2008 (EST)
- I think I could add one. What character do you want to be blank? VengefulDonut 00:49, 26 February 2008 (EST)
- I was replacing a simple text only picture in Preferences. In the end I just used span tags but it looks silly. If you do put in spaces maybe you can set it up to use a combonation like "\\" instead of a real character. I don't think the need for blanks will come up too often.

- It seems i can't, but I found a different solution. VengefulDonut 03:18, 26 February 2008 (EST)

qd problem.
This picture: Template:Qd Template:Qd Template:Qd Is showing up fine everywhere except the only place it belongs: Design strategies#Moody Dwarves Where instead it just shows:
"#if:`
Template:Qd Template:Qd"
If you edit the section it will show a working preview but if you display the whole page it messes up. --Hex Decimal 04:11, 29 February 2008 (EST)
- Unfortunately, this is a problem beyond my ability to fix. There is a limit on how much template data can be on a single page, and large qd diagrams take up quite a chunk. I've made it as compact as I can while keeping it's purpose. There may be a way to compress it more that I haven't figured out :/. If you're interested, there is more info about it here. Feel free to copy the template over to your userpages and fiddle with it - if you can reduce the pre-expand include size of large diagrams it would be pretty spiffy.
- Also, you may have noticed that the link to wikipedia is to an old revision of the page. That's because wikipedia has a new system that uses preprocessor node count instead of pre-expand include size to limit the number of templates on a page. If we can convince Senso to get it, it would be easy to make a much more include-friendly version of qd (although I suspect the current qd would also experience a huge boost to its include limit).
- For now, I guess either split the article or cull some diagrams. VengefulDonut 09:57, 29 February 2008 (EST)
- Or, we could just turn the largest ones into images and put their code on their image discussion page. You'd have to reupload the image each time it was altered, but it would work. --Savok 11:52, 11 March 2008 (EDT)
galena/billon
Do you really think that the fact that an ore turns from 'lead safe, silver maybe' to 'silver safe, lead no' is not worth mentioning? Also, we don't have a page on silver ores or any other source for what does generally count as silver ore or not. With this logic you could just go on and remove the info on tetrahedrite too. The page for silver even states "Galena (50%)" which in this case is plain wrong. --Koltom 21:55, 26 March 2008 (EDT)
- The ores of silver are all listed on the silver page. Tetrahedrite is one such. Galena is one such. You want to include the non-reaction properties of galena (and probably tetrahedrite now that I've told you abut it) with a reaction.
- Also. The special case for tetrahedrite on the billon page is a nod to tetrahedrite counting double when used to smelt billon - one tetrahedrite makes 2 billon bars. Nothing exceptional happens when galena is used. VengefulDonut 10:23, 27 March 2008 (EDT)
Shame on me(Ayk)
Hi, I quite don't get the meaning of the WTC reference related to the armor/armour pun. On the other hand, maybe my comment sounded too political (but references to past or present characters, conflicts and administrations would be purely coincidental etc.). Or maybe you were just joking and I'm being thick.--Aykavil 03:06, 8 July 2008 (EDT)
