Change Highlights

  • Search bar is now higher so always on screen and has drop down suggestions.
  • Many new options available on Special Pages.

New Help Pages

Images

  • While Image: will still work, start using File: instead. In image gallerys you no longer need to prefix the image with Image:, just use the name.
  • Images no longer automatically redirect when #Redirect[[]] is placed on the image's page. Therefore it is no longer necessary to put it there (no point anymore). To use an image as a redirect, add |link=Page Name as a parameter. Note that for icons this will be automatically included in templates that use icons, you will only need to do this if you are directly specifying an image. The {{Icon}} template will be updated and can also be used for this.

Unexpected Behavior

Describe here, if noncosmetic and needs immediate attention please leave a message on Tlosk's talk page.

  • Sidebar below bottom of page on Template:Map Point.
    • Update: Markup issue isolated to that page, not indicative of a larger problem.
  • Some search items, for example "Axe" display no results in search.
  • Broken pages: Drudge Scrying Orb
    • Update: There are problems with the revision table between about Nov 7th, 2008 and Dec 14th, 2008 and any pages that were last updated during that period won't display. I'm working on a fix now to repair it. Please post if you find any pages that are not displaying and were last updated on a date outside that range.
