Category jump expansion
(Copied from BadCat's page:

Hi Darkwynters.

You seem to be King of the Categories around here (really, great work organizing everything), so I wanted to sound you out on an ideas first.

What do you think about expanding on Template:Category jump to include things like Events, Foods & Beverages, and a broad category for cultural things like customs, holidays, etc.? We could make a new entry in the template, or use the existing options for "additional1" and the rest? It could be a huge chore updating everything though. — BadCatMan (talk) 09:59, December 9, 2012 (UTC)


 * So funny... I thought about this yesterday... or the day before... I love it... you mean, sort of like Category:Locations in Kara-Tur... with the extra sections... I will admit I am not as tech savvy as some of the other admins, but as for updating and organization, that is my bread and butter :) King of cats, I like the sound of that!!! Darkwynters (talk) 18:01, December 9, 2012 (UTC)


 * Okay, I have set up two different ideas... first User:Darkwynters/Sandbox has using the additionals... which means "additional" wording... but I also played around with the Template:Category jump and Template:Category jump/doc to add events and food & drink sections... I am not sure how to add the "from" for Category:Items from Toril... so check out Category:Locations on Toril and see what you think)


 * Hey Cronje, if you have a second... please check out our ideas and see if: 1) the calculations are correct, and 2) if you have any insights... thanks!!! :) Darkwynters (talk) 18:11, December 31, 2012 (UTC)


 * Great job on the template! I've added another parameter, items, specifically for items. If set to yes, it will add a link to Category:Items from LOCATION. Cronje (talk &sdot; contribs) 22:30, December 31, 2012 (UTC)


 * Awesome!!! Happy New Year and thanks for adding the items section, man :) Darkwynters (talk) 15:00, January 1, 2013 (UTC)

Hidden cats
Hey Cronje, you created this category... what is it for? it is empty... but I guess it could be used, if you have a reason??? Just check it out :) Darkwynters (talk) 23:43, January 7, 2013 (UTC)


 * Honestly, I have no idea. :P I think that, when I created it, there must've been at least two categories in it (those using __HIDDENCAT__ ), but I haven't a clue what they were. Cronje (talk &sdot; contribs) 00:51, January 8, 2013 (UTC)

Captured troll
Hey, Cronje :) A viscous troll known as Mr Mask ransacked the wiki and Boo fought off him off!!! I blocked him for a week, but I wanted to see if you feel the blockage should be longer. Thanks :) Darkwynters (talk) 01:06, May 9, 2013 (UTC)


 * As you've almost certainly noticed, I've taken a hiatus from the wiki for a short time. I'm really happy you, Boo, and other frequent contributors/admins have been able to combat trolls like Mr Mask. A week sounds good for vandalism, but I would extend that to two or three weeks for the vulgarity. Just my opinion, of course, and who knows if he'll ever come back, even after his ban's up. Good riddance! Cronje (talk &sdot; contribs) 01:28, May 9, 2013 (UTC)

Cronje, I have noticed and hope everything's okay :) I will take your +2 week vote and thank you. Whenever you return back to the wiki, she will be waiting for you, my friend :) Darkwynters (talk) 01:42, May 9, 2013 (UTC)
