New Weakness Categories Edit

There is consensus at Forum:Weakness category to create categories for monsters with each kind of weakness. Because of the scale of this undertaking, it will require volunteer help. Please see the previously mentioned thread for details. Stelercus 14:08, August 23, 2010 (UTC)

Do these categories already exist? I wouldn't want to make duplicates. MattTalk 08:24, September 4, 2010 (UTC)

Use the following categories:

• Category:Weak to stab attacks
• Category:Weak to slash attacks
• Category:Weak to crush attacks
• Category:Weak to magic attacks
• Category:Weak to ranged attacks
• Category:Weak to melee (use only if monster is generally weak against melee. Do not add Weak to slash and Weak to melee, it is not necessary)
• Category:Weak to poisoned weapons

How do I make a link to categories here without putting the page in the cat?

222 ^talk 01:44, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

AWB can possibly speed this up. Infobox monster has also been modified to automatically add categories, but it is being very buggy and many pages are not showing in the category, anyone who can fix this or add support for multiple weaknesses should try and fix it. 222 ^talk 04:32, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

This project has been finished, thanks to Matthew2602 for doing all monsters lvl 100+ and myself, all monsters lvl 1-100. Hopefully our viewers can make use of this information. P.S. AWB doesn't just possibly speed it up, it makes it heaps faster. 222 ^talk 02:15, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

You know, I contacted wikia about fixing the wiki's string limit so that Template:Infobox Monster would give the categories if mentioned in the "weakness=" parameter, so as soon as that is fixed it would be nice if those would be removed from the pages as they will be given automatically. Evil1888 ^{Talk A's L} 02:21, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

Will the categories duplicate or just remain as is? 222 ^talk 03:17, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

Aftermath of Page maintenance pageEdit

RuneScape:Page maintenance was created along with some other pages as a result of consensus at Forum:Page maintenance page. A few things need to be completed as soon as possible.

Moving discussionsEdit

All discussions previously placed on article talk pages need to be moved to their own sub-pages on ATBS and ATBM.

Done. 222 ^talk 10:45, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

Fixing templatesEdit

Template:vfd top and possibly Template:vfd bottom need to be modified to remove Category:Requests for deletion after archiving. This is to make RuneScape:Page maintenance run correctly.

This must be done manually when archiving, 222. Evil1888 ^{Talk A's L} 09:10, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

K 222 ^talk 09:14, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

Done. (to a point) 222 ^talk 10:45, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

Fixing another templateEdit

Template:Rfm and Template:Rfs need to be updated to lead to the ATBS/ATBM page as well as a link to the relevant discussion page, WITHOUT PRODUCING A RED LINK.

Get going, 222 ^talk 08:31, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

It does that already... Evil1888 ^{Talk A's L} 09:12, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

There is still a red link. I know cos I changed the template myself. 222 ^talk 09:14, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

Where is this red link? What page? Evil1888 ^{Talk A's L} 09:15, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

Actually, it's gone now. There was previously a real red link on the Split template. Is the pale red coloured link meant to be there? 222 ^talk 09:21, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, that's a easy fix. Evil1888 ^{Talk A's L} 09:25, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

Done. 222 ^talk 10:45, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

More issues have cropped upEdit

and are being fixed by a variety of users, please report any other problems here 222 ^talk 10:45, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

Fill in the blanks Edit

Fill in the Dungeoneering pouch image column at Summoning pouches. LordDarkPhantom 14:20, August 14, 2010 (UTC) Done

Task has been completed. I'd like to add to this and say just to fix up all of the Dungeoneering Summoning images. Some of them have shadows, some of them aren't categorized, and some of them just aren't there. It's Cook's afterbirth day! 21:00, August 14, 2010 (UTC)

HasStrategyEdit

All pages with a strategy sub-page need to have the {{HasStrategy}} template added to it, per consensus at Forum:Strategy guides. 222 ^talk 10:51, September 10, 2010 (UTC)

Court case scrolls Edit

Move all the ways to obtain a court summons from the Court Cases page to the Court Cases/Scroll finder page. Also wikify the latter page. Thanks, LordDarkPhantom 14:11, October 16, 2010 (UTC)

Add Category:Distractions and Diversions to Template:Court details (not sure how to do it). Thanks, LordDarkPhantom 10:24, October 17, 2010 (UTC)

Oh my that was tough. Evil1888 ^{Talk A's L} 10:28, October 17, 2010 (UTC)

Quest difficulties Edit

Quite a few quest pages has the wiki difficulty in {{Quest details}} at the maximum which is "5". Thsi is because the parameter was defined as "difficulty" instead of "wdifficulty". So in the details, if there is a number after "difficulty" we need to change it to "wdifficulty". MattTalk 06:36, October 17, 2010 (UTC)

I'm going to AWB the lot once I work out the settings. 222 ^talk 06:57, October 17, 2010 (UTC)

Good luck, I already tried... MattTalk 06:59, October 17, 2010 (UTC)

Complete!!! Thanks for the luck 222 ^talk 08:32, October 17, 2010 (UTC)

Adding new drops templatesEdit

A large amount Monster pages need the new drop templates to be added. This will be a massive job to tackle, which is why many users need to help. See this and that for more information.

222 ^talk 10:44, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

Only problem with that is that the rarity is commonly guess work. MattTalk 11:27, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

See User:Chicken7/Drops for help on this topic. Sentra246 11:41, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

It's still usually guess work between uncommon and rare. MattTalk 11:47, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

I just remebered if you don't know and it doesn't say put it as uncommon and it can be changed if needed. Sentra246 09:55, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

Okey dokey. MattTalk 10:18, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

Some pages will be here Sentra246 11:37, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

of course one of the sneaky things that game developers do is to change drop rates and such, either in name of 'game balancing' or just to keep the users guessing, which of course keeps interest in the game, just an observation. ~kytti khat 08:34, September 1, 2010 (UTC)

This, ofcourse, is NOT true. In the past 2 years, jagex altered the droprate of a monster only ONCE, and that was Tormented Demons. This was done because jagex did not forsee that players would come up with methods as efficient as they are now to kill them. -- joske

Not true. I've been slaying for literal years. It used to be easy to get a whip inside 3 hours, but much harder to kill abby demons. Now I can go weeks without seeing whips and often times do. Same with most other slayer monsters, bosses, and anything else with a semi-rare valuable drop. The more they are killed, the more Jagex lowers the drop rate. Be better if they solved the root problem and just made things harder to kill. Halo^Talk 12:40, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

Since this isn't a drop log this shouldn't matter as it will be as easy to change as it was when they were just lists. Sentra246 10:10, September 5, 2010 (UTC)

Slayer monster pages Edit

Per Forum:Slayer monster pages, we will add who assigns a slayer monster to the infobox. We will need to create new parameters in the Infobox Monster template, one for each slayer master. The parameters should be named after the slayer masters. Please note that the parameters should only have the original slayer master's name, meaning that Spira, Ichtyrin (however it's spelled), and Lapalok should not have parameters.

The specifications for the template are as follows:

1. Each parameter is set to no by default. If the parameter is changed to yes, that means that the slayer master assigns the monster.
2. A new line should be added to the infobox, named "Monsters assigned by:". If a master assigns the monster, it should be listed there. Please note that if multiple masters assign a monster, their names go all go in that line, separated by commas.
3. If no slayer masters assign the monster, the Monsters assigned by line should be omitted.
4. The monster should be added to the category "Monsters assigned by (name)" if the parameter is set to true.

This will require some work to finish, but it shouldn't take long, since we have a list of who assigns what. Note that a bot is required to add all of the parameters into all the infobox monster templates. Please post here if you are going to add the parameters, since we don't want edit conflicts. --King Liquidhelium^Talk 22:55, October 9, 2010 (UTC)

Don't you mean "If no slayer masters assign the monster, the Monsters assigned by line should be omitted" ? --Saftzie (talk) 23:12, October 9, 2010 (UTC)

Since it was edited, I guess he did.... --Saftzie (talk) 00:31, October 10, 2010 (UTC)

I've created a list of categories for the monsters

• Category:Monsters assigned by Turael or Spria
• Category:Monsters assigned by Mazchna or Achtryn
• Category:Monsters assigned by Vannaka
• Category:Monsters assigned by Chaeldar
• Category:Monsters assigned by Sumona
• Category:Monsters assigned by Duradel or Lapalok
• Category:Monsters assigned by Kuradal

And they are all in a hub category titled Category:Monsters by Slayer master which is in the Slayer and Bestiary categories.

222 ^talk 23:25, October 9, 2010 (UTC)

Moved from RS:UH. 222 ^talk 23:27, October 9, 2010 (UTC)

All the above categories are currently being held in my sandbox, please remove them from there when completed. 222 ^talk 23:27, October 9, 2010 (UTC)

Comment - It would be useful if someone could provide the required settings to apply these categories using AWB. 222 ^talk 23:35, October 9, 2010 (UTC)

Comment - If no one objects, I'll take this one on. I've read the forum article, plus I have some ideas of my own. --Saftzie (talk) 01:17, October 10, 2010 (UTC)

Aside: I'm no help for the AWB settings, though. --Saftzie (talk) 01:19, October 10, 2010 (UTC)

So it looks like a blew my afternoon for nothing. Geez... How come nobody said they objected before I started? --Saftzie (talk) 22:25, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

Comment- I'm working on the infobox parameter. It can be seen at my sandbox. 16:55, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

Comment - I finished what TyA was working on and have applied the change to Template:Infobox Monster. So start adding those parameters, AWBers! Evil1888 ^{Talk A's L} 21:35, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

You need to add how to use your changes to Template:Infobox Monster/doc. Halo^Talk 21:39, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

Done. Evil1888 ^{Talk A's L} 22:13, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

Please see the continuation of my comment above. --Saftzie (talk) 22:26, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

Uh, how do we AWB this? I need settings. 222 ^talk 05:41, October 18, 2010 (UTC)

Why do we have params for both Turael and Spria? If I'm not mistaken, they give the same monsters. It's Cook's afterbirth day! 22:49, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

That's so if some high-level editors comes around and adds both or replaces the other, nothing bad will happen and will display normally. Evil1888 ^{Talk A's L} 22:53, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

Dungeoneering Arrow Articles Edit

Go through all of the dungeoneering arrow articles and either then include the poisoned types and pictures in the article, then create proper redirects with the (p), (p+), and (p++) suffixes, or create new articles for the poisoned versions of the arrows. Lgm432 19:02, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

Redirects completed. Evil1888 ^{Talk A's L} 01:33, August 16, 2010 (UTC)

Someone still needs to add pics and info though. Lgm123990 16:18, August 16, 2010 (UTC)

I added a bit of info with this bot, but still needs pics, probably, and maybe a bit more detailed info on how to make them, but I think that's a bit redundant.

Note to anyone who wants to do this: please do not add "how to make this item" instructions to the pages. Thanks, JOEYTJE50TALK  09:47, August 4, 2011 (UTC)

Page creation Edit

See User:Cook Me Plox/Sandbox for a list of all the pages that need to be created/split. Lots. 200. Get on it ^^ It's Cook's afterbirth day! 10:09, September 6, 2010 (UTC)

Adding examine info Edit

There are a lot of pages that simply don't have examine information on them. I've created a category (Category:Needs examine added) for pages missing that. The list should get populated soon. If there's a page in there, you can just find it in-game, whether it's an item, monster or character, and simply examine it. Add that to the infobox, and it will automatically get removed from Category:Needs examine added. It's Cook's afterbirth day! 21:56, July 28, 2010 (UTC)

Isn't there a way we can remove this from some, because for some you simply cannot get the examine. EG: Discontinued NPCs, unreleadses updates. 62.255.192.221 09:33, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

I suppose we could add N/A to it. It's Cook's afterbirth day! 06:22, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

We could set it so that "no" or "n/a" or any other negative phrases would trigger an "examine not avaliable" message. Though for discontinued NPCs there's always a way to get it, via youtube vids or what have you. Psycho Robot talk 03:20, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

I've added the examine text to the 50 I could examine. I also simply added N/A to the ones that can't be examined yet as I didn't feel like adding it to the infobox templates for only about 10 items that couldn't be examined. Hope this helps. ^Talk Newbie856 ^{edit count} Nomad guide 22:04, October 17, 2010 (UTC)

Remove the stub template from non-stub articles Edit

The stub template is on like 4100 articles I think. Most of these are complete articles and don't need this template. Don't just blindly remove it, you need to have judgment to know what is a stub and what isn't. Halo^Talk 19:44, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Link to stub-article list here. (Added link for lazy people like me.) Lgm123990 19:32, August 16, 2010 (UTC)

I've been doing some AWB work removing some stub tags as per RS:TODO. However, I've noticed that almost all of the music track articles have stub tags. I am confused as to if I should remove these of not.

Ameobea10^{Talk • Contribs • #}

00:42, November 14, 2011 (UTC)

After a forum debate, it has been decided that these stub tags should not be removed unless the page has a fully-filled out infobox, an included sound file, and at least one line of description text.

Ameobea10^{Talk • Contribs • #}

00:55, December 12, 2011 (UTC)

Court Cases Edit

Move all the ways to obtain a court summons from the Court Cases page to the Court Cases/Scroll finder page. Also wikify the latter page. Thanks, LordDarkPhantom 15:48, October 24, 2010 (UTC)

Indexing the Yew Grove archivesEdit

Archived Yew Grove threads need to be categorised into specific topic subcategories, for more information see the thread and instructions on the template. 222 ^talk 05:21, February 10, 2011 (UTC)

Portals Edit

The Portal pages need to be completed, see here to help! Cheers, 222 ^talk 09:50, June 20, 2011 (UTC)

Shilo Village areas Edit

Several of the underground areas in the Shilo Village quest could do with area information, mapping, etc, maybe even their own articles. For instance, there is little information for the Tomb of Rashiliya tomb where Nazastarool is fought and which is available to fight undead ones after the quest. -- 18:44, September 30, 2011 (UTC)

Removing Old Game Guide Citations Edit

All the citations to the old obsolete Game Guide that was replaced by Jagex's wiki have to be removed. All uses of {{CiteGG}} have to be removed and all links to non-existent pages have to be removed. However, links to pages that have been moved should not be removed unless the original content doesn't exist. Examples of this are news article citations and postbag citations.

00:53, December 12, 2011 (UTC)

This has a list of all the old KB links. Some of them, such as postbags, wall papers and god letters still exist so it's possibly more efficient to do it manually. Cåm  01:02, February 10, 2012 (UTC)

I've removed references to "Community powered" Jagex Wiki pages because they are far less reputable than ours and thus should not be cited. References to Jagex staff editable-only pages remain.222 ^talk 03:05, May 3, 2012 (UTC)

And with that, this project will now be archived.

03:18, May 3, 2012 (UTC)

TT Armor Sets Edit

Treasure Trail armor sets are no longer.. items, due to scamming due to the different prices of leg and skirt sets. So yeah, we need to do an overhaul for our box set articles. 02:16, May 5, 2012 (UTC)

Shops Tables Edit

Every article in Category:Shops that uses a table to list products and not {{StoreTableHead}} and {{StoreLine}} need to be replaced. Nex 23:07, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

Updating CitePostbag Edit

With the new update to the runescape website, the Template:CitePostbag has wrong links on all of the pages. The URL needs to be fixed. The postbag can be found here for the links. Hair 23:43, December 27, 2011 (UTC)

Work on Squeal of Fortune PagesEdit

All of the new Squeal of fortune pages in the category Squeal of Fortune need to be written, images need to be added, and info added to infoboxes.

21:51, February 28, 2012 (UTC)

New Fremennik sagasEdit

The articles for the sagas are fine, but we're missing pages for the saga books (Template:Saga_Books) as well as many characters and items, such as Mini Mini-Marm (not sure if I have the name right). Hofmic Talk 06:19, April 25, 2012 (UTC)

I got a bunch of pages in. Anything else missing? 02:16, May 5, 2012 (UTC)

Replacing images Edit

Quest reward images left to be updated: Not technically quests, but they're in the category. All other outdated images in the category are historical. Cåm 09:39,24/6/2012 (UTC)
