In general yeah, keep the formatting the same as it appeared originally, but it's not essential. You can enclose the link in nowiki tags, however as soon as I get #tag working it won't be necessary and dead links will automatically appear as plain text instead of as a link as they do now. For teaser images, move them to the teaser images section of the announcements page rather than including them in the body of the teaser. But you can still include a table when needed, just substitute {{tl|!}} for pipes ( | ). For tables of data though it can be easier to make a page for the table and transclude it, like was done [[Announcements - 2004/04 - A New Threat#Letter to the Players|here]]. But the templates are meant to be useful, if things get more complicated with them than they are worth for any particular page it's better to just use manual formatting, I'm in the process of making a section at the bottom of [[Archive of Internet Article Template]] for that (along with all the other template pages).


Even though they may not have standardized sections, feel free to add anything else to the announcements page that fits, just give it a new section. For example the additional sections on [[Announcements - 2004/03 - Across the Vast Divide]]. But some things won't fit in and should be a separate page with [[:Category:Turbine]], one of it's subcategories, or [[:Category:Internet Lore Article]]. --[[User:Tlosk|Tlosk]] 13:08, 8 April 2009 (CDT)

Hi Arkalor, We were discussing the Critical Protection augmentation and are curious about your text: ''Also important to note is that this can potentially reduce your chance to be critically hit to 1% (theoretical 0) versus monsters near your level or lower, when combined with high melee defense skill.''
 
What do you mean?  Can you explain how crits against you could be reduced to a 1% chance?

Hey Tiger. I see you have been putting together a lot of guides for older quests. You are using the older quest guide template for them. The new template code is located here: [[Quest Guide Template]], with an example here: [[Frore]]. If you want to continue using the older template, that is fine - any guide is better than none - but those pages will have to be updated later to fit the new template, so it'd save time later to start off with the new one. thanks. --[[User:An Adventurer|An Adventurer]] 17:40, 21 March 2009 (CDT)
: Great work on the material you've been adding. The templates are new and we're all using them for the first time now so if anything doesn't work as you expect it to let me know, we're still tweaking them (in a couple days once all the kinks have been worked out we'll be releasing a new version of the swiss tool that will include the new  templates. --[[User:Tlosk|Tlosk]] 08:43, 22 March 2009 (CDT)

Hello, welcome to the Wiki. To help us keep the wiki cleaned up, please [[Page Templates]] when creating articles, and proper naming formats and image sizes when adding/updating images:
:Hey, sorry it took a while to get back to you. I went through my AC files on my old computer, and I don't have those images. I can tell you how I made them though, and you can feel free to recreate them.
* Live Images must be named '''Article Name Live.jpg''' (JPG image, Case Sensitive), and are 200x300px, 300x300px, or 300x400px exactly.

Hi Arkalor, We were discussing the Critical Protection augmentation and are curious about your text: Also important to note is that this can potentially reduce your chance to be critically hit to 1% (theoretical 0) versus monsters near your level or lower, when combined with high melee defense skill.

What do you mean? Can you explain how crits against you could be reduced to a 1% chance?

exemplars

I'll have to boot up my old computer to check for the crafting and quest journal exemplars, but my hunch is that I didn't save the working files for them. --An Adventurer 14:39, 19 December 2012 (EST)

Hey, sorry it took a while to get back to you. I went through my AC files on my old computer, and I don't have those images. I can tell you how I made them though, and you can feel free to recreate them.
  • The quest journal exemplar is a character wearing some random loot armor and wielding one of the magic caster books (e.g. Tome of Chill). The screen shot is of this character mid-emote, probably *scratch head*, *smack head*, or *read* so that it looked like she was reading.
  • The crafting exemplar is a bunch of items piled up against the wall in the whispering blade stronghold. Looks like it was a Fletching Table, Empty Stopped Keg, Empty Bottles, some hops or barley, an Alembic, and some misc. spell comps.
