09:03.41harli wonder, is that wowwiki article about wow alignments just a copy of the original d&d alignments meant to loosely adapt to the ways things are in wow (for the fun of it and the sake of role-playing).. or is there actually an alignments system burried within wow (the tcg included) that pretty much resembles the same segmentation d&d alignments already had..

21:02.52sannseg0urra: here?
21:02.59g0urrayes
21:04.06sannsehey :) your edit to the sitenotice is somewhat misleading... as any edits can be transfered between wikis whenever they are done, and as wowwiki on wikia is still going to be editable long-term... can you remove it pelase?
21:04.17sannseonly spelt right
21:04.58g0urranotice "may not"
21:05.45foxlitsannse: we'll alter it to reflect what you want.
21:06.04pcj"please edit here, wikia needs the ad money"
21:06.09sannseg0urra: I'm sure they will, I know you guys have the ability to make that so
21:06.26sannsejust removing that part would be great :)
21:07.03sannseabsolutely refuses to get in to being snarky with pcj ;)
21:07.28pcjtoo fucking late
21:07.49foxlitsannse: out of interest, did you end up cancelling the queued dump? :)
21:08.09sannseI've not been snarky with you at all pcj, I may have disagreed with you, but nothing more.
21:08.37sannsefoxlit: no, I didn't have a request for that (although I guess it's not needed?) - I did the opposite and bumped it
21:09.10foxlitsannse: it's just that Special:Statistics was being weird earlier and showing the "Request dump" button rather than the disabled "Dump has been requested" button.
21:09.38pcji don't think that button even works :P
21:10.47sannseI'm not sure of the exact process -what I know is that the button sends a request to the queue, unless the current dump is less than a week old, and unless there has been a request in less than a week
21:11.20sannseso it may be that pcj's request was older than a week, and kd3's previous dump was older than a week... so it showed, then someone clicked it
21:14.03foxlitHm, I wonder.
21:14.41foxlitFor a request to be in the queue for a week you'd either have to have a long queue, or it'd have to take ages to actually export the content -- or both.
21:16.07sannsewe are in the middle of a major project, all the queues are massive right now :) including the to-do list of the guy who does the dumps... he's working on several major things right now
21:17.11sannseI just checked the request queue - looks like I was right about why the button went again - pcj... I take it that means you /do/ still want the dump even though you have the pages already
21:17.12foxlitShould really be a cronjob :)
21:17.37kd3just for sanity purposes
21:17.39pcjan sql dump would obviously be more lovely
21:18.03kd3still wonders how tfwiki wound up with their image dump a few years back...
21:18.06sannseyep, it was, and should be again... but the job has to deal with more than 160,000 wikis now
21:18.20sannsepcj: I've bumped the ticket
21:18.31pcjok ty
21:18.45sannsekd3: you saw my message, we just got told 'no'... we didn't realise the implications back then
21:19.08foxlitUnfortunate, but nothing that can't be dealt with.
21:19.14sannsealthough we should have, apparently wikipedia has refused to do them for the same reason for quite a while
21:19.15kd3indeed
21:19.26sannse*nod*
21:19.30kd3wait, wha?
21:19.33kd3tabs open commons
21:19.42sannsewikipedia != commons
21:19.50sannsewikipedia allows fair use images, commons doesn't

22:10.56sannsefoxlit: no, I'm afraid that doesn't work.  WoWWiki isn't moving, some people from WoWWiki are moving to a fork they have created.  the current wiki will still be in place and available for anyone who wishes to use it.
22:11.23g0urra"some people"
22:11.35mike32547ahhh wow...
22:11.39kd3is still amused that the ongoing discussions at wikia hq think this is a 'me and pcj only' thing
22:11.44mike32547and i thought mine was bad..
22:11.56Shirikas for chrome
22:11.57mike32547i usually have like 10 opend
22:12.00Shirikwait it gets better
22:12.05sannsekd3: no, we don't think that
22:12.21foxlitsannse: Yes, I see the connotation. Can you suggest an alternate wording that communicates the same thing?

22:12.47sannsefoxlit: let me see...
22:12.59mike32547you must have a quad core processor
22:13.03mike32547with at least 4 gig of ram
22:13.16Shirikthis is actually a laptop
22:13.23Shirikthough it does have two HDDs in RAID 0
22:13.27mike32547whats on it
22:13.28Shirikand 4 GB RAM
22:13.35mike32547o yeah ownage
22:13.36Shirikcore 2 duo
22:13.39Shirikno I need a new one
22:13.41Shirikit's pretty slow
22:13.48mike32547i have 5 gig of ram 500 gig hardrive
22:13.53g0urraShirik: how many tabs are that
22:13.54mike32547intel chipset family sereies 3
22:14.07Shirikg0urra: I forget, but it was enough that they actually wouldn't all fit on the window
22:14.13pcji have 8 GB ram, 2 TB disk space, quad core processor
22:14.16pcjdo i win a prize
22:14.17Shirikthis is how I found out chrome doesn't have a scroll button to scrolll through the tabs
22:14.24Shirikso you actually can run out of space
22:14.30g0urradamn you pcj
22:14.40g0urra6 GB ram, 1 TB disk space :(
22:14.48pcjwtf g0urra that's crap
22:14.48g0urrano wait
22:14.50g0urrait was 2TB

22:17.33mike32547do you think cata will be all what its hoped to be
22:17.39mike32547or will it be a total let down like sc2
22:17.48ShirikI don't think sc2 was a "total let down"

22:18.20ShirikThe biggest problem is going to be that WoW is so far behind now because they haven't updated the engine really since vanilla
22:18.24g0urrathe ones who enjoyed playing custom maps with friends on LAN doesn't like it
22:18.31Shirikso the graphics are getting much worse than what is available in other games these days

22:18.37ShirikI do :(
22:18.51mike32547i agree what Shirik is saying
22:18.53ShirikI'm just saying that makes it much more volatile

22:19.02ShirikIf you're not going to improve the graphics, youneed to keep the rest of the game up
22:19.08mike32547runescape has better water graphics
22:19.12Shiriklol.
22:19.16g0urralol.
22:19.22g0urratoo bad they're crap EH
22:19.24foxlitI'm annoyed at the lack of character reflection
22:19.34foxlitIt's as if everyone's a vampire or something
22:19.37ShirikI wish Blizzard would make a game like Aion
22:19.46Shirikall the games I like recently have been with horrible companies

22:21.24g0urra"The game is played with 2 teams (the Legion of Man and the Beast Horde) fighting against each other on a large playing field in an attempt to eventually destroy the durable command center of the enemy team, thereby winning the game. The game is played in rounds, and no benefits carry over from each match, despite the RPG elements present in each match."

22:24.38Dotted[Shirik]: so the graphics are getting much worse than what is available in other games these days <- minecraft, your arguement is now invalid
22:24.52Shirikminecraft is an anomaly..
22:24.53pcjwow is not diamond

22:27.30Dottedit is sort of like Garry's Mod but in a live world so to speak
22:27.41mike32547o
22:27.50mike32547garys mod is confusing as well
22:27.58Dottedthis is much less

22:28.18g0urrayou know what's better Dotted
22:28.20g0urraa swede made it
22:28.30mike32547why would you want to play a game tahts sole purpose is to play in a sand box enviroment
22:28.47Dottedi know a swede made, which explains the retardation of developing it in java g0urra
22:29.25Dottedmike32547 i guess you need to play it to understand
22:29.26mike32547i have played it

22:44.08sannsefoxlit: sorry to disapear, I had to go talk about the wide table issue with the new skin guys... looks like they are going for a general width change rather than devising some table detecting system
22:44.14mike32547warcraft 2 and the like

22:45.55mike32547lol
22:48.26Ressyso, wowwiki only is going 1200px?
22:48.27Ressylawl
22:48.35g0urralawl
22:48.53sannsethat's what they are looking at, yep
22:48.55RessyPersonally, I think why bother
22:49.01mike32547any of you enjoy war3 at all?
22:49.31sannsebecause it changes the display of very large tables - which WoWWiki has a lot of
22:49.33RessySo. Anyone have bets on when wowwiki loses fansite status? :)
22:49.44Ressywhich other wikis have too, but you only give a shit about your cash cow
22:49.45g0urraofficial fansite*
22:50.24Ressywhich is an upgrade from thumbing your nose at us before.
22:50.27Ressybut still not good enough
22:51.00sannseRessy: I'm not going to let you or anyone else taunt me in to biting back, it's not what I do :)
22:51.00mike32547any of you
22:51.09foxlitsannse: 1200px actually seems like a step back
22:51.19sannse?
22:51.20foxlitIt's wider than my usual browser window.
22:51.51Dottedfoxlit sideways scrolling is the new thing you know
22:51.53g0urrafoxlit: but the other alternative would be to make it non-fixed width :(
22:51.53sannsefoxlit: so should we fix for you? or for those complaining that 1000 is too small?
22:51.59RessySannse, so what do other wikis with large tables do, who can't redesign said tables as they're dpl-generated
22:52.17pcjmake everyone use monobook
22:52.30foxlitsannse: you cannot win, unfortunately -- people use different resolutions
22:52.38foxlitAs long as your layout is fixed width, it'll annoy someone
22:52.42Ressy^

22:52.51pcjdang it
22:52.54g0urrav
22:53.02pcjg0urra sucks
22:53.10Dotted>
22:53.10sannsefoxlit: exactly, so if people design for their monitor width, they are going to mess it up for readers... that's the point of fixed width
22:53.22pcj...
22:53.24g0urra...
22:53.26Dottedololololol
22:53.53RessyNo sane person designs for specific monitor widths.  If they do, they should be smacked in the head.
22:54.38sannseoh you have no idea how many times I get people asking me about messed up layouts, because it works perfection on /one specific resolution/
22:54.52sannsenot everyone understand how such things work :)
22:54.58pcjyeah i imagine the same people who put monaco code in common.css
22:55.15RessyTheres a lot of stupidity in this world.
22:55.26Ressybut thats not a good reason to compound it. :\
22:55.40sannseand get confused by complex templates, and prefer wysiwig... welcome to the world outside that of you few brainboxes ;)
22:57.02pcjthey'll continue to be confused by that stuff if you dumb it down
22:57.14pcjmore code cannot compensate for ignorance
22:57.49sannseif that were true, my mother would still not be able to use a word processor.
22:58.01ShirikRessy: You'd be surprised how hard it is to make it work for all widths
22:58.02sannseI want her to be able to edit wikis too
22:58.07ShirikFor example, make a site that works well on my blackberry

23:16.07foxlitSo as to avoid "Hey, where did everyone go?" topics popping up anyhow :)
23:16.09pcjwe'll just use JS to detect if people hate themselves and want to stay on wikia or would prefer to leave :P

23:17.23sannsepcj: if you can write JS to detect what's in people's minds... then congratulatiuons on being a future billionaire :P
23:17.53pcjim sure wikia has a variable for it somewhere, in all the facebook stuff

23:18.29pcjthat's up to them

23:18.35sannseI wish... would help me detect whether it really was someone's brother vandalising

23:21.03sannseRessy: "brother" or "cousin" is more common than neighbour... but yeah, seen that one too
23:21.12foxlitsannse: "For more information, please visit [blah]" is avoidable entirely by linking to to it from "being set up"

23:31.23pcjoh, update community corner in case people are already on oasis...oh wait that doesn't work
23:31.37sannseRessy: other wikis have a larger number of people on that lower resolution - so it would cause more problems.  /But/ we are going to be doing a whole lot of monitoring, so what happens on WoWWiki may change things in the future elsehwere
23:31.41Ressystill?  I thought that was supposed to be fixed Monday?
23:32.24sannseI think it's fixed, but in the next code release (which is likely going to be Tuesday) - I'm not certain though, not got that ticket bookmarked
23:32.37sannsefoxlit: thanks :) and to all others for discussing
23:33.04RessyI have no clue as to numbers on the farmville wiki, however we can't redesign the tables.  They're dp-generated, and for some reason we can't get a scrollbar to display for the table to make it fit in oasis. :\
