As of this date, there were 24,202 articles on the FR Wiki, 7,221 files, and 65,958 total pages. My edit total was 26,478 / 27,247 depending on which number you believe. &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 05:30, January 1, 2018 (UTC)

Page Range on citations
Thanks for the tip. i was unaware it was required. Cheers! --Regis87 (talk) 15:06, January 9, 2018 (UTC)


 * The default value should be the entire range of pages, then people can cite the whole article (like you do with your Further Reading entries) or they can add a page number argument to cite a specific page as needed. Good work! &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 15:15, January 9, 2018 (UTC)

Enabling Discussions?
Hi there Moviesign! I noticed that your community was not yet using Discussions, our Forum feature replacement we developed for our communities last year. We realize your community does not currently use Special:Forums but please consider allowing us to enable Discussions anyway, as it provides more benefits to your community than it's predecessor. We have already switched all new communities to Discussions and are manually enabling it on established communities who are interested in having the feature available for their users.

Discussions is a feature that users can use to post questions, thoughts, images, links and even videos. They can upvote posts and even share them on social media. Users can edit their posts for the first 24 hours, but Admins and Moderators can edit posts anytime. Users can report posts they feel do not comply with our guidelines, or that of the community. Admins and Moderators can remove them. We give you the tools you need to monitor reported posts and users that report them. Since the introduction of Discussions, we have seen a pretty big increase in community interaction. You can find more information on Discussions here: http://community.wikia.com/wiki/Help:Discussions

Let me know if your community would like to have Discussions enabled on the community and the app. I would be happy to take care of it for you. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know. Jamie (profile)•(talk) 21:14, January 10, 2018 (UTC)

Page Deletion
Page Deletion: Narabatun Jungle There is one line of info, no references, and no mention of it in my sourcebooks (Maztica Campaign Set). May I humbly propose that this page be deleted?--SilverTiger12 (talk) 23:16, January 25, 2018 (UTC)
 * In general, yes you may. The best way to do so is to put a Deletion template at the top and give a reason why you think it should be deleted, like so: However, in this case, the Narabatun Jungle is an actual location that is described in the Endless Armies adventure. I'll add a reference to it and save it from deletion ;) &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 01:12, January 26, 2018 (UTC)

Generic classes and class tables
Certain AD&D Trading Cards give only generic 2e classes for their subjects ("Warrior" instead of "Fighter" or "Paladin", for example). In most cases the card description implies a certain subclass, but other times not. What do I do in these cases? Fill in Class table with the generic class, thereby generating "Category:Warriors of X level (2e)", or should I categorize them according to "common sense" (for example, Udall Granitecrusher is obviously a Fighter, but it's not really stated). --Ir&#39;revrykal (talk) 09:35, February 22, 2018 (UTC)


 * Yeah, warriors didn't become an actual class (for NPCs) until 3e, so I would just leave off the edition parameter of Class table and it will not generate any categories, put in, and then add Category:Warriors (2e) by hand. If you can infer the correct class, then go ahead and use the full Class table and maybe add a Note on how you came to that conclusion. &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 13:55, February 22, 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you, I will do that. --Ir&#39;revrykal (talk) 14:47, February 22, 2018 (UTC)

Coding for infobox titles
Seeing as you are the most recently active admin on here, riddle me this: what part of this wiki's MediaWiki.css coding for infobox titles (such as this allows them to appear the way they are? SorcererSupreme21 (talk) 04:24, February 28, 2018 (UTC)


 * Everything labeled with  and perhaps things that are inherited from the overall infobox and/or wikia's CSS. Do you have a specific question about styling I can help you with? &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 14:15, February 28, 2018 (UTC)

Category rename
Hey, Moviesign. I want to move Category:Images from the Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting 3rd edition to the more accurate location of Category:Images from Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting 3rd edition, but the category rename function appears to be missing from the drop-down menu (when using Oasis/Wikia). Has access been restricted to admins, or has the feature been removed? Whatever the case may be, could you give me a hand using some bot magic? --Ir&#39;revrykal (talk) 20:04, March 26, 2018 (UTC)


 * Sorry to interrupt, but I think the category is correct as it is. The published sourcebooks refer to it as the Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting. For that matter, it is properly the Player's Handbook, the Dungeon Master's Guide, and the Monster Manual. See the "What You Need to Play" section of any FR sourcebook that has one, for example, on p. 4 of Silver Marches. This is consistent for every sourcebook I've looked at. ~ Lhynard (talk) 20:20, March 26, 2018 (UTC)
