I've honestly got no clue as to where I'm supposed to post this, so I decided on a blog post.

I'd like to formally nominate Sküljagger as a rollbacker for the wiki. His attention and care to detail in editing is admirable, and his loyalty to the wiki's anti-vandalism system, both easily qualify him for this role, if he is willing to take it on.

Hey all. I've just completed a template that I wanted to share, as I think it could be useful for talk pages, in the sense that it standardizes the format used, while simplifying it.

The template can be found on my testing wiki, and from what tests I've conducted, it works seamlessly. Any feedback is welcome, and if said feedback is good, I'll bring the template on over here for the community's use!

Hi there all! Been a while since I last posted a blog post, so I thought it was about time I posted a new one. A double congrats here - Yet again on both - one for Dzylon and one for Leet-Pete, the former for officially becoming a bureaucrat of the Terraria wiki, and the latter for having his admin rights restored! :)

Anyway, onto business. I noticed on a few occasions that a lot of the templates featured here have been popping up inside infoboxes, which is a big no-no in terms of editing etiquette. Here is why:

• As far as I'm aware, each instance of it causes a little extra stress for the server because it's a template inside a template. (Though I could be wrong.)
• It disables visual-mode editing, which is an important aspect for many of the edi…

Hi again everyone, just informing you all that I'm still here. I'm just rather stuck down with assignments at the moment. Scholarship-Level Classical Studies, Scholarship-Level Calculus, Scholarship-Level English, Electronic Studies, High Excellence Chemistry Studies, and the like. Lots of writing, calculating, and analytical essay composing. ^ᴗ^

I'll be sure to be back as the Path you know as soon as possible, please bear with me! I'll be trying to be online every day if I can. For this term, school ends in three days, but the study just begins. So...

What're you staring at? Back to work~! :D

Hi there everyone.

This is both in celebration of the achievement I'm about to entail, and of my four-thousandth edit here on the Terraria Wiki.

Recently we came across the solution to the "templates within templates" issue, also known as "permanent source mode". However, I've come across a further solution, and proper scaling method to the Coin numbers. As a trial, I've subsituted the normal , , and templates in the |Sell, |sell and |Sells For parameters, for a raw value modifier in the |Value parameter which utilizes the template. In addition, a similar parameter was added to the template: |CoinsDropped. Exactly the same function as the |Value parameter, just for outputting the coins dropped by a monster. When using either of these, please onl…
