Personal ImageEdit

Hello. An image or video that you have uploaded appears to be personal. Personal files should not be hosted on the RuneScape Wiki (see RS:NOT#HOST). If you want to add a picture or video of your RuneScape character, or any other media that doesn't fit in an article, you may upload it on an image hosting site, such as Photobucket or ImageShack. You can then insert it into your userpage simply by copying and pasting the URL where you want to insert it. If you need more details feel free to ask any question you have on my talk page. Iiii I I I 02:33, December 15, 2009 (UTC)

To put images on your userpage, you must paste a direct link to the image from a site, eg. Imageshack or photobucket, otherwise only the link to the image will show up. I don't think tinypic gives direct links, so that's why it didn't work. --Iiii I I I 16:53, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Try pasting this link from imageshack. --Iiii I I I 17:00, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Your timestamp appears in a box because there was an extra linebreak in it. The space makes the time appear in a new line. --Iiii I I I 17:11, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Try turning off Rich Text Editor in your preferences under the Editing tab; if that doesn't work, I'd ask Gaz for help. --Iiii I I I 18:36, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Re:Alt CharactersEdit

You said: In your alt characters section, the letter Æ/æ is listed under Character Symbols, but it should be listed under Letter Symbols

Ah, thank-you for your message. In regards to proper classification of the Æ symbol, I will change it immanently. Zig 15:46, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

Done. Iiii I I I 20:23, January 13, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Calculators Edit

Hey, glad you fixed it. If you haven't seen them already, here's the developer's manual for the calculators and here's the wikiguild dedicated to making these type of calculators (and improving and maintaining the current ones).  Gaz Lloyd _Awesome^Events!_99s 21:17, January 30, 2010 (UTC)

Experience until level calculatorEdit

I see you have tried to make a calculator to see how much experience you need until you level up. To save you more time and pain, I'd like to say that I have done this already. You don't need to do a thing. ShinyUnown _{T | C | E} 21:33, January 30, 2010 (UTC)

Max hit calc Edit

You be stealing my ideas!!!!  Gaz Lloyd _Awesome^Events!_99s 12:42, May 2, 2010 (UTC)

No worries. Which do you think would be better for mainspace?  Gaz Lloyd _Awesome^Events!_99s 14:17, May 2, 2010 (UTC)

Hmmm. I'm curious about some of the things in your version.

• Use of levels other than strength - dragon battleaxe special doesn't boost strength by the amount attack/ranged/defence/magic is reduced by, just a fixed 20% of strength level
• Turmoil - we don't know the precise strength level of an opponent monster; turmoil also has a limit
• Its huge

Anyway, I added a variable prayer bonus field to mine. I'll go poke some other editors for their opinion on what's good and bad about each, and from there we can implement a merged best of both.  Gaz Lloyd _Awesome^Events!_99s 17:07, May 2, 2010 (UTC)

Just tested and it is untrue. Wasted a few k in pots lol  Gaz Lloyd _Awesome^Events!_99s 19:42, May 2, 2010 (UTC)

Hey. Just curious where you got the formula for the boost of extreme strength potions from (you have floor(1.22*level)+5)? I looked around and can't seem to find anything on it anywhere, though it seems reasonable. Any idea?  Gaz Lloyd _Awesome^Events!_99s 22:02, May 10, 2010 (UTC)

Okay fair enough. I'll use that for now, since there is not other data on it elsewhere. Check out Calculator talk:Combat/Max hit melee.  Gaz Lloyd _Awesome^Events!_99s 21:56, May 11, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Making monaco.js edit the signature button Edit

I recommend hiding the default signature button and creating a new one using this code in your JS file:

// <nowiki>
appendCSS('#mw-editbutton-signature { display: none; }');
if (mwCustomEditButtons) {
	mwCustomEditButtons.push({
		'imageFile': 'http://images.wikia.com/common/releases_201002.3/skins/common/images/button_sig.png',
		'speedTip': 'Your signature with timestamp',
		'tagOpen': '{{Signatures/Tyilo}} ~~~~~',
		'tagClose': '',
		'sampleText': '',
		'imageId': 'editbutton-customsig'
	});
}
// </nowiki>

Be sure to also copy the nowiki tags, since they prevent the templates/tildes from being converted when you save the script. --Quarenon  _Talk 20:41, May 6, 2010 (UTC)

Template:Training guides Edit

Whatever a guide is a guide. Do not remove a link to it in the template. I'm even trying not to be angry because the guide you dislinked is mine. 04:59, May 7, 2010 (UTC)

WikiScript Edit

I was wondering where the documentation for how to use WikiScript, like you used in the Combat level Calculator. I have experience with javascript and html, but would like to learn how to use the type of code used on that template. 15:56, May 18, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Chrome extension Edit

Hi, I think I know what is causing the startup delay, I'll take a look at the problem and let you know if I release an update that fixes it. --Quarenon  _Talk 04:23, September 16, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Melee max hit update Edit

The 'fall-through' mechanic of #switch covers it - both balmung and dragon longsword are (estimated to be about) 1.45.  Gaz Lloyd _Awesome^Events!_99s 17:08, January 2, 2011 (UTC)

lol no worries  Gaz Lloyd _Awesome^Events!_99s 19:08, January 2, 2011 (UTC)

RE: Help with header Edit

Hello, I'm not sure exactly how much space you wanted underneath the navbox, but I switched it from using line breaks to using a CSS margin. Usually doing it that way gives more consistent results when you want to create space between things. You can adjust the | style = margin-bottom: 150px; line to however many pixels you want to have below the header. --Quarenon  _Talk 02:33, January 18, 2011 (UTC)

Breaking ParseHiscoreData Edit

Please don't break Template:ParseHiscoreData for everyone else by changing the numbering. Since the Highscore ranks are seperated by spaces, your adding of the extra leading space when passing {{#var:hs}} to ParseHiscoreData will mean that the number of spaces before each skill will be out by one. I suggest you remove the extra space and have:

{{ParseHiscoreData |{{#var:hs}} | attack}}

Instead of:

{{ParseHiscoreData | {{#var:hs}} | attack}}

The trailing space after the {{#var:hs}} does not matter as the parser counts the spaces from the start.

I have reverted your change so the Template:ParseHiscoreData works again for other people. Amaurice ^talk 00:22, January 26, 2011 (UTC)

LOL - looks like we were leaving messages for each other at the same time. You just need to remove the extra spaces before each of your {{#var:hs}} when passed to ParseHighscoreData. Amaurice ^talk 00:25, January 26, 2011 (UTC)

Re: ParseHiscoreData Problem Edit

The problem with the total level rank showing as:

{{#urlencode:153,134

was actually an error in the Template:ParseHiscoreData. The template had been changed in the past to handle the delimitors being newlines instead of spaces. It did this by attempting to use "urlencode" to encode the characters and then using "#replace" to turn the encoded comma, newline and space back again.

However, the call to urlencode was wrong in that it had a leading # character, so instead just resulted in adding the extra "{{#urlencode:" to the start of the overall rank. I have now fixed this, so your page displays correctly now. Amaurice ^talk 21:01, January 26, 2011 (UTC)

I just noticed that my fix for the "urlencode" also means you can add back the extra spaces you had before (if you want). The extra "{{#urlencode:" was what was stopping it from ignoring the leading spaces (because the leading spaces were coming after the "{{#urlencode:" bit). LOL. Amaurice ^talk 23:56, January 26, 2011 (UTC)

CalculatorsEdit

Hi Tyilo,

I am trying to get the ball rolling to improve our calculators. I saw that you made a bunch of JS calcs, and I was wondering if you would be interested in helping make our calculators better. As I write this, we are missing 5 skill calculators. Those are relatively easy to make if we have enough people doing them. We are also setting up a page where people can suggest ideas for new calcs (RS:CI), and we can create them. Soon we can have the best, most diverse group of calculators anywhere. Take a look at Forum:April - Calculator Month for more information.

Thanks,

It's Cook's afterbirth day! 18:44, April 2, 2011 (UTC)

RE: I can do this? Edit

Sure, but I don't think its worth the effort given the tiny number of people who have these pages, and understand how to use them, compared to the number of viewers (who I would assume are mainly unregistered users). So yeah, you can ff you want but I wouldn't bother frankly.  Gaz Lloyd _Awesome^Events!_99s 11:16, May 18, 2011 (UTC)

RE:AWB request Edit

Done, did it work as you intended? 02:32, June 26, 2011 (UTC)

Autosort Edit

Hi Tyilo, I closed Forum:Autosorting for tables. Could you please implement it? If you need to add something to a protected page, as me or any other sysop to help you. I have no idea how to make it work. =/ --King Liquidhelium^Talk 12:50, August 17, 2011 (UTC)

I did, I have no idea if it works, so you'll have to test it. Thanks, --King Liquidhelium^Talk 14:08, August 17, 2011 (UTC)

RE: importScript Edit

Eh, dunno if that works. Usually better to have something distinctly on a page that the script can read (eg, a special class, as your table autosort uses). Do you have a specific location such a thing would be used (a scenario)? Hofmic Talk 03:38, August 18, 2011 (UTC)

RE: Getting list of all pages in the "Exchange:" namespace? Edit

Like this?  Gaz Lloyd _Awesome^Events!_99s 16:50, August 21, 2011 (UTC)

Well you could use Category:Grand Exchange too, but I don't see why you'd need a list of every exchange page. If its some sort of analysis template (like the high alch profit of every item), you'd be better off using DPL for that. (I have tried to make a high alch calc using it in the past but didn't have the conviction to get it completely working correctly.) Other than the special page and the category, you could use AWB to generate a list and export it to a txt file, though I don't know how much use that would be for you.  Gaz Lloyd _Awesome^Events!_99s 18:02, August 21, 2011 (UTC)

Here's a quick example:

{{#dpl:
 namespace=Exchange
|titlematch=%pyre logs
|format=,* %TITLE%: {{GEPrice{{!}}%TITLE%}}\n,,
}}

which gives the output

• Arctic pyre logs: 3,082
• Eucalyptus pyre logs: 3,581
• Magic pyre logs: 5,577
• Mahogany pyre logs: 3,248
• Maple pyre logs: 2,942
• Oak pyre logs: 1,094
• Teak pyre logs: 3,214
• Willow pyre logs: 1,272
• Yew pyre logs: 4,112

Obviously you can use whatever template you require. You can find further details of what each parameter does on the site linked above, if required.  Gaz Lloyd _Awesome^Events!_99s 19:24, August 21, 2011 (UTC)

The format parameter takes the following format: format = startall,start,end,endall where

• startall and endall enclose the entire statement, e.g. for placing div tags or table open and closers, though for tables there are better methods (using table and/or tablerow, or templates)
• start and end enclose individual items, though in the above example there actually isn't anything in between the two. Sometimes it might make logical sense to put them differently, say, if you were using span tags for each line, it may be better to put the closing </span> in the end field for clarity.

Further information on format can be found here. Hope that helps,  Gaz Lloyd _Awesome^Events!_99s 21:42, August 21, 2011 (UTC)

Don't edit userpages Edit

Never edit someone elses userpage like you did here. It is considered vandalism, and quite serious. Consider this your first and last warning about this sort of thing. Sentra246 08:27, October 3, 2011 (UTC)

Task Completion Edit

Hey Tylio!

Why don't you go finish that fishing ardougne task - you have the level required!!!

G O T W C 00:46, January 6, 2012 (UTC)

No, the ARDOUGNE task, you only need 81 fishing. -- G O T W C 01:08, January 6, 2012 (UTC)

File redirects Edit

Why are you creating redirects in the File: namespace? Ciphrius Kane 19:26, January 6, 2012 (UTC)

If you are trying to get files moved, use the {{M}} template. The full working of the template is {{M|reason for move|suggested new name}}. The suggested new name does not require the linking brackets and the reason and suggested new name are optional Ciphrius Kane 19:31, January 6, 2012 (UTC)

Creating file redirects makes bugs. I have told you how to request file moves above. Also, there is no need for you to act in what I can only describe as an arrogant and selfish manner. We cannot create a mess of the wiki just so one person's pages look ok. Maybe you should try changing your coding Ciphrius Kane 19:47, January 6, 2012 (UTC)

Re:Edit

Personal ImageEdit

Hello. An image that you have uploaded appears to be personal. Personal files should not be hosted on the RuneScape Wiki (see RS:NOT#HOST). If you want to add a picture of your RuneScape character, or any other media that doesn't fit in an article, you may upload it on an image hosting site, such as Photobucket, ImageShack, or Imgur. If you need more details feel free to ask any question you have on my talk page. AnselaJonla 16:52, February 17, 2012 (UTC)

 :File:XP Counter total level.png - only used on your user page. AnselaJonla 16:58, February 17, 2012 (UTC)

I'm going to ask someone who knows what they're doing with the template to see if it's possibly to add that image to the user stats template, in the "total level" space. That's the only place I can think of for it to go. AnselaJonla 17:13, February 17, 2012 (UTC)

Hey, I've had a look and I've located another file that might do the job you need: File:Statistics.png. If that doesn't work the image you uploaded is in the file history of that file. Not sure how you could use it but you could Ciphrius Kane 17:32, February 17, 2012 (UTC)

Family Photo Edit

I notice you've signed up for this year's Family Photo, but haven't sent in your picture yet. Please try to have that in by the first of March. If you need someone to take your photo, please ask me on my talk page, and I'll take the image for you. 16:04, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

Re: Calc bug Edit

When I view your example, it sets output to "Expanded to value of a + '_b'". Is this not what you expected? Note that a variable name to be substituted can't contain underscores, to allow things like skillstat_$skillname_level. Stewbasic 23:36, March 9, 2012 (UTC)

Then you could do let(temp,variable_with_underscores) let(output,expand_$temp_here). Stewbasic 15:56, March 10, 2012 (UTC)

quickpreview Edit

I guess you already saw the added functions :P. btw \b doesn't match underscores, so cc("test_test") is "Test_test". I'm not sure whether that's preferable.

I imported your quickpreview script from my js file as you did, but it still doesn't run anything when I use the preview button. Am I not using it correctly? Stewbasic 02:06, March 21, 2012 (UTC)

round is added, though it'd be best not to add too many functions that can be expressed in terms of those already there, to avoid bloating the code. Also p and la refer to the precedence and associativity of the binary operators.

I didn't realise the monobook and wikia skins were so different. Actually the preview button in the wikia skin does what your quickpreview button does. I've edited your script a little bit here to work in both skins. For monobook the only change is that it doesn't load the script over and over. Stewbasic 00:03, March 23, 2012 (UTC)

Re: Ticket calculator Edit

Thanks for the new calculator, but I frequently adjust the ticket rates of the resources. I looked at your version and modifying rates seems to be quite nebulous; the current one seems more straightforward to me. Thanks again for making a faster-load, but for my purposes I think the one Gareth wrote works fine. --King Liquidhelium^Talk 22:14, March 22, 2012 (UTC)

Well, that assumes that the resources are continuously bundled as such, but later I may move timber and stone to different rates, for example. This code is just too complicated for me. (Besides, I'm always the one doing the tickets; I haven't noticed much of a load lag with the current version.) --King Liquidhelium^Talk 22:19, March 22, 2012 (UTC)

Your treasure trail code Edit

I think you should change $('#bodyContent .wikitable td... to $('.wikitable td... since the former is looking for tags whose id is bodyContent, not children of bodyContent. Stewbasic 18:31, April 8, 2012 (UTC)

RE: Variable not changing Edit

That's pretty odd, but making use of the parameter added to /TableEnd seems to fix it. I assume because both instances of /TableEnd were identically called, so mediawiki evaluated it once and applied the same result to both. Just using the parameter, even with the same text, fixed it. Weird but whatever, maybe worth a bug report.  Gaz Lloyd _Awesome^Events!_99s 17:19, April 12, 2012 (UTC)

Script to ensure you sign talk pages Edit

Hi, since you were the one who made the script to ensure you sign edits to talk pages, I figured I'd submit this bug report to you. When undoing an edit (such as to remove vandalism or revert deleting discussions), the script still asks if we wanted to sign the post (since we're undoing an edit, there's naturally no signature). Is there any way to expand the script so that it detects when we're undoing an edit (the page and URL are considerably different when undoing edits)? Thanks, Hofmic Talk 07:29, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Re: Calc not working in preview Edit

Did you switch to the wikia/oasis skin? The problem there should be fixed now (and I didn't see any problem in monobook). Stewbasic 22:32, June 11, 2012 (UTC)

Wanted FilesEdit

Hey there! I've been working on clearing Wanted Files and there's something called "File:' + path + '" that's caused by your ggpcatering.js. I was wondering if you knew how to fix that, in order to make sure the non-existent file shows up. Thanks! 16:50, July 21, 2012 (UTC)

User:Tyilo/signature.js Edit

Hi there,

User:Tyilo/signature.js is being used in MediaWiki:Common.js, but it seems that it isn't working properly. It said that I didn't sign my comment and asked if I wanted to procceed doing this edit (it does the same on this page as well). I did however put four ~ after my comment so it shouldn't have said that. Can you investigate why it happens? I am using Source-edit mode instead of visual edit mode. I am currently using Chrome 23.0.1271.10 dev-m if that helps. Sumurai8 (talk) 14:52, September 30, 2012 (UTC)

I can't reproduce that, but for now you can add

var enforceSign = true;

to your skin.js. TyiloTalk 18:04, September 30, 2012 (UTC)

CalculatorsEdit

You need to either remove the transclusions, add noinclude tags on the pages, or have a nowiki'd page because they're showing up as being in categories for calculators. That page is not a calculator, it's a personal list so they don't belong in that category. MolManTyl 22:53, March 10, 2013 (UTC)
