Search bar
Sir,

What happened to the Search bar?


 * I see it hovering at the top of every wiki page. You don't see it? Please sign your Talk page entries and Forum posts with four tildes ( ~ ) so it notes who and when something was posted. Thanks! &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 18:00, January 12, 2016 (UTC)

Ship Template
I noticed the templates for plants and mountains have a colored infobox (green/black). I looked on the source edit pages for both but didn't see how that was done. Is there a way to edit the ship template so the infobox is blue? Artemaz (talk) 17:10, January 13, 2016 (UTC)


 * Yes, it just requires a little more work. I'll fix it up and see what you think. I think we use a color of blue for Immortal but I'll pick something more saturated perhaps. Unless you have a color picked out? Do you like the template layout with the "Basic information" and "Configuration" sections? Are the parameters the way you want them? &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 20:05, January 13, 2016 (UTC)


 * The parameters and everything for the ship template look perfect now. Thanks again for all of your help! Regarding the color, I just thought it would be cool to have the infobox appear is some kind of blue since ships spend most of their time on the water. :) Artemaz (talk) 20:39, January 13, 2016 (UTC)


 * &hellip;but ships themselves are usually brown. :) ~ Lhynard (talk) 21:36, January 13, 2016 (UTC)


 * Only the dirty ones! Seriously though, I suppose brown would work too, but blue is prettier. Artemaz (talk) 21:41, January 13, 2016 (UTC)


 * I think it would be neat to see some combination of both. ~ Lhynard (talk) 21:43, January 13, 2016 (UTC)


 * Knowing Movie, he could make that happen and add a barnacle to the side of the ship infobox... Artemaz (talk) 21:49, January 13, 2016 (UTC)


 * A Two color Infobox??!? Are you insane? Surely that is a sign of the apocalypse! &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 00:53, January 14, 2016 (UTC)


 * Okay, my original variations on one color (a greenish blue) infobox can be seen on any ship page. To see all the colors, you have to specify an image and a caption as well as some basic info. If you want a two-color scheme, we can try that, but too much variation and it just looks garish. You may think it already looks garish with that basic color (which I lightened up a step already), so let me know if you had a more sky-blue color in mind or what. &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 02:29, January 14, 2016 (UTC)


 * I swear I'm trying not to be too picky, but could you make the color more sky blue? It looks pretty turqoise when I refreshed the Reaver (ship) page. Artemaz (talk) 04:33, January 14, 2016 (UTC)


 * Sure, no problem. But it will have to wait until tomorrow. Need sleep now..zzZZzz &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 05:16, January 14, 2016 (UTC)
 * How's that? &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 02:06, January 15, 2016 (UTC)

Shadovar
The entire history section of Shadovar refers to a conflict which already has its own section in New Neverwinter where it belongs. It does not tell the history of the Shadovar whatsoever and I was going to replace it with their actual history. I wrote that history a while back and it does not fit and should be replaced. --Mr. Youtube (talk) 17:33, January 21, 2016 (UTC)


 * Okay, as long as we're not losing good content, put it where you think it belongs. &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 17:45, January 21, 2016 (UTC)

Cheers!
Congrats on your 1000th page! ~ Lhynard (talk) 18:44, February 27, 2016 (UTC)

Kits
I removed those kits because they actually do not appear in Shadows of Amn. They were added with the Enhanced Editions, and are already correctly listed further down on the Kits page. --Ir&#39;revrykal (talk) 13:25, March 27, 2016 (UTC)


 * Ah, they were just duplicates? I stand corrected. &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 14:16, March 27, 2016 (UTC)

CSS question
Hey there. Would it technically be possible to apply conditional formatting for refs? For example, change the background color of all refs containing Cite game. --Ir&#39;revrykal (talk) 19:34, April 15, 2016 (UTC)


 * I don't believe so. All citations, regardless of what type (game, book, web, etc.) render as an ordered list with nothing to distinguish what template generated them. I could color all of them the same, but not individual references differently. The template itself could be modified to add color, but it would only be behind the text and not the whole reference block. Why would you want to do this anyway? We're trying to maintain a modicum of scholarly dignity here, in an area of fandom that is historically ridiculed. If our reference sections were candy-striped with color, that would clash with the overall color scheme of the wiki and look unprofessional in my opinion. &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 00:40, April 16, 2016 (UTC)
