Redirects

There's some messy redirects; I'll try and hunt them down.

  • Newbiesport™ backpack nobody would type this
  • Talk:The Haiku Dungeon 1 (One time), Talk:The Haiku Dungeon 1, Talk:The Haiku Dungeon 2 (One time) a string of redirects for some reason.
  • Other redirects ending in (One time) or (in disguise). Nobody would bother to type those.
  • I'm sure there's some other redirects that don't make sense.

Obsolete Images

  • image:Fullclanhall.jpg unneeded composite image, reduced to components. --Quietust 08:34, 25 May 2006 (CDT)

KOL Traders

  • This is ridiculous. I have seen this Machej's website by clicking on the link in TheKolWiki ads and his prices are absurd. To have the nerve to make an advertisement page on the wiki is grotesque. Nevertheless, it needs to be deleted. --SomeStranger (Talk | Contribs) 07:11, 27 May 2006 (CDT)

Old composite image of Valhalla, replaced with table of original component images. --Quietust 13:46, 20 May 2006 (CDT)

Ice-cold beer (Sir Schlitz)

  • Uneeded redirect. --SomeStranger (Talk | Contribs) 11:18, 6 May 2006 (CDT)
    • Ok, it was deleted, then it was remade again by Atlantima, so can we please delete this again. No one needs this redirect. --SomeStranger (Talk | Contribs) 09:20, 7 May 2006 (CDT)

Now that the recipe for the oily golden mushroom is known, the discussion page Talk:Oily golden mushroom becomes ancient history, and should be deleted or archived. --Criswell 08:42, 12 April 2006 (CDT)

April Fool Images
  • There are many extra april fools images that were uploaded such as:
April Fools.JPG
April fools 2006.jpg
Site 1.jpg
Site 3.jpg
Site 4.jpg
Site 2.jpg

that need to be cleaned out. --SomeStranger 20:00, 3 April 2006 (CDT)


  • Are there archival copies of these images somewhere and these are duplicates, or what? Because I think it's interesting when we manage to preserve crazy things like this that only happened once. --jin 21:33, 3 April 2006 (CDT)
  • Those particular images listed above are (rather poor quality) screenshots that somebody took. I downloaded the original images from the site and arranged them in tables on the site-pimp.com page. --Quietust 22:07, 3 April 2006 (CDT)
  • Heh, those rather poor screenshots were taken by me. For some reason it never occured to take the actual images from the site, the current version is much better than the one I created. The other two images not titled "Site" were screenshots taken by two other people that were also low quality. the current contents of the Site-pimp.com page cover everything that was on the site in high quality and hosted on the wiki. --SomeStranger 22:11, 3 April 2006 (CDT)
Misnamed immateria images

GreyCatSandbox needs to be removed as it only a redirect to Greycat's userpage. --SomeStranger 17:54, 8 April 2006 (CDT)

The adventure The Haiku Dungeon 5 (One time if not failed) is a copy of The Haiku Dungeon 5 (One time) that has no links to it and should be deleted. --SomeStranger (Talk | Contribs) 23:51, 12 April 2006 (CDT)

Category:Player: the talk page for this category was never deleted along with the category.--SomeStranger 20:00, 3 April 2006 (CDT)

User Pages for deletion

  • I accidently moved a page to the wrong name so pages: User:Lt Vicious and User:Lt vicious need to be deleted. --SomeStranger (Talk | Contribs) 14:20, 13 April 2006 (CDT)

Image:nutcracker.gif

The real image is Image:familiar44.gif which is already uploaded. Image:nutcracker.gif is not the real file name and should be deleted.--SomeStranger (Talk | Contribs) 18:02, 15 April 2006 (CDT)

A bunch of stuff

  • Jabañero-flavored chewing gum should be deleted because it is just a redirect with no point, (who would ever type that in).
  • Moxie Increasors should be deleted because no one in their right mind would make that spelling error. (it is just a redirect)
  • Image:Das Überkühlraum.gif should be deleted as it is not the correct file name (the real one is already uploaded)
  • Image:Kitty the Zmobie Basher.gif is the wrong file name for something that already exists.
  • Image:Nayztameetjoo.gif is also the wrong file name for something that already exists.

That is all for now....--SomeStranger (Talk | Contribs) 22:26, 23 April 2006 (CDT)

Template:Plus

Long obsolete item combination template. --Quietust 20:25, 25 April 2006 (CDT)

  • Vanity page that was already moved to the respective user's page. --SomeStranger (Talk | Contribs) 20:37, 26 April 2006 (CDT)

Gravy Fairy Familiars

I just don't think gravy familiars need their OWN page. (Maybe merge this with something else) --SomeStranger (Talk | Contribs) 20:43, 26 April 2006 (CDT)

Help:Wiki Oddities

Page just had obsolete discussions of technical issues all long resolved/obviated by the move to Coldfront --Gymnosophist 01:10, 28 April 2006 (CDT)

TheKolWiki:Community Portal

The portal is badly out of date and is no longer needed, having been replaced by various link sections on the Main Page. This page is basically just the remains of the old Main Page prior to it's 8/05 makeover. --Gymnosophist 01:52, 28 April 2006 (CDT)

Category:Frequently Asked Questions

Delete emptied catagory. --Gymnosophist 01:52, 28 April 2006 (CDT)

Category:Hilarious Items

Created, then was renamed to Category:Hilarious Objects to match the name of the skill. We don't need the redirect anymore. --Quietust 10:31, 28 April 2006 (CDT)

Junk pages by James chen0

  • Bashy's home

Mob Penguin Thug

  • Delete redirect page so we can move A Mob Penguin Thug to that location. —Dentarthurdent(T,C) 23:10, 28 April 2006 (CDT)

Miscellaneous

The People's Army of Loathing Non-notable vanity clan page. Possible re-creation of one that has already been deleted. Only claim to notability is a player in the clan who was the first to find the Trivially Skilled trophy - and that, IMO, doesn't prove notability. --Aardvark (Talk | Contribs) 21:19, 10 January 2006 (Central Standard Time)

'River City' contingent Usergroup of four people in the Ninjapiratezombierobot clan doesn't deserve its own page, I'd think. --Cairnarvon 15:06, 23 January 2006 (Central Standard Time)

Request deletion of the image file Wall1111.gif -- it didn't work, so I uploaded image:Wall1000.gif instead. --Baltar 00:44, 26 January 2006 (Central Standard Time)

Possible dupes

As noted in Talk:Flame-broiled meat blob, Flame-broiled meat blob looks to be a duplicate of Overdone flame-broiled meat blob. Recent adventuring there with a test character seems to confirm this - I got the Overdone flame-broiled meat blob version 3 or 4 times, but never got the Flame-broiled meat blob version. --Gymnosophist 17:49, 3 Sep 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

The Haiku Dungeon 5 (One time if not failed) dupes The Haiku Dungeon 5 (One time), which is the page linked from The Haiku Dungeon. —Ffilmar 12:14, 1 January 2006 (Central Standard Time)

Period bug fixed?

I'm not entirely sure, but it seems that the bug with page names ending in periods may have been fixed. Mjolnir Jr. isn't (currently) causing any problems whatsoever - although to be on the safe side, I went ahead and moved it to a name NOT ending in a period. Still, the redirect is working as it should, and links to it aren't considered the same as a link to Mjolnir Jr --Aardvark (Talk | Contribs) 05:07, 30 Sep 2005 (MDT)


  • It still seems to be a problem. I tested it by going to Mjolnir Jr. and hitting BALEET. It baleeted Mjolnir Jr, leaving the one with the period lying around. And, even though in the URL of Mjolnir Jr. it includes the period, the page title does not. It's probably best if we still avoid all use of periods at the end. --jin 11:42, 7 January 2006 (Central Standard Time)
No 'Flavor of Magic' Effect

Please remove the Flavour of Magic disambig page and move the contents of Flavour of Magic (skill) to replace it. There is no effect by the name of 'Flavor of Magic'. --Shagie 17:11, 10 March 2006 (CST)

Images for Deletion
  • The images Bigpaco f.gif and Bigpaco m.gif as the images that are not "big" should be used instead. --SomeStranger 13:43, 14 March 2006 (CST)
Gloomy Mushroom Wine
  • I copied information from the forums for Gloomy Mushroom Wine and the Sick to your stomach effect, without realizing that these were merely suggestions for Riff and not yet actual content. D'oh. Please delete. --Baltar 11:15, 16 March 2006 (CST)
  • Hah, I even corrected a typo before I saw this post. We are quite a pair. :P --Suraimu 11:46, 16 March 2006 (CST)
Ice-cold beer (Willer)
  • After to the seperation of Ice-cold beer into two types two clumsy pages (Ice-cold beer (Sir Schlitz), and Ice-cold beer (Willer) were created to cope with the change. The Sir Schlitz one was deleted, but the Ice-cold beer (Willer) page still remains and needs to be deleted as the Ice-cold Willer page serves the job better and I find no need for this page to redirect to the new one as no one would ever search "Ice-cold beer (Willer)".--SomeStranger 05:11, 31 March 2006 (CST)

January, 2006

  • Thought I'd mention this as well, if you go to "list of uploaded images" and search for "jpg" or "png" theres a bunch of files that seem either unrelated to KoL (BikerMan.jpg), or duplicates of already existing gifs (stargarb.JPG). I'll let the people who know what theyre doing sort it out :) -- Eugene, 15:15, 18 Sep 2005 (GMT)
  • Image:Chamber6.gif. Crap. --Aardvark (Talk | Contribs) 18:04, 8 January 2006 (Central Standard Time)

Item Collectors seems like an odd page to have...this wiki isn't for advertising, after all (except the little images on the left). -Zilly 18:38, 10 December 2005 (Central Standard Time)

  • I hate this page too, but no one ever looks at it and it keeps people from adding themselves onto item pages like they used to. --JRSiebz (☎|§|‡) 20:58, 10 December 2005 (Central Standard Time)

User:Aardvark/Sandbox and User:Aardvark/Itemheader can be removed. --Aardvark (Talk | Contribs) 01:49, 7 January 2006 (Central Standard Time)

Ascension spoilers doesn't really contain any unique information, isn't linked to, and hasn't been updated substantially in months. Mister Mister 20:41, 26 November 2005 (Central Standard Time)

This category needs to go. If anyone feels strongly about keeping the pages individualized, rather than the central chat page, come up with a better category in which to place them (Basics, whatever). Extraneous categories suck. --Snickles 15:53, 8 December 2005 (Central Standard Time)

  • I would suggest putting the content of Chat filters in Chat; chat moderators in Category:Basics; removing chat channels altogether (it's repeated, in more detail, in chat); and remove Vanna from this category (not sure why she was put in here in the first place: Chatbot is in Category:Players, so she can be too). -Zilly 16:07, 8 December 2005 (Central Standard Time)
    • That all sounds good to me, Snickles & Zilly. Let's rip this puppy out. -- Old Ned 05:09, 10 December 2005 (Central Standard Time)

Moon phase templates can go...eventually, after we make sure the front page keeps working right ;-) heh

  • Template:Moons 1, Template:Moons 2, Template:Moons 3, Template:Moons 4, Template:Moons 5, Template:Moons 6, Template:Moons 7, Template:Moons 8, Template:Moons 9, Template:Moons 10, Template:Moons 11, Template:Moons 12, Template:Moons 13, Template:Moons 14, Template:Moons 15, & Template:Moons 16.

TheBub's ass, does this page need to exist? anyone? --JRSiebz | ☎ 23:29, 26 Oct 2005 (MDT)

  • Go ahead and remove it. I added it because it was a running gag in more than one of the forums, but it has passed it's prime. --Aardvark (Talk | Contribs) 01:02, 27 Oct 2005 (MDT)

Miscellaneous (or ends with a period)

Birdy is totally useless and should be deleted. --Kandrew 20:45, 2 Oct 2005 (MDT)

  • Birdy is a notable player (and ex-mod) but I agree. The article as it stands is trash. It needs to be rewritten or removed. --Aardvark (Talk | Contribs) 22:41, 2 Oct 2005 (MDT)
Category:Classes
  • Dang. I feel like a troll, what with all the notes I toss here. What of category:classes? IMO, I feel that six pages don't make a category, and they all link together at the bottom anyway. Would this category be better off as a seperate page? --Aardvark 03:02, 29 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • We'll get em sorted - one way or another. Or, as the Mikado's Ko-Ko would say,

He's got 'em on the list--he's got 'em on the list

And they'll none of 'em be missed--they'll none of 'em be miss'd!

--Gymnosophist 21:37, 29 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • This category has been listed here for quite a while, with no feedback or consensus to delete it. I suggest we keep this category, and archive this discussion. Thoughts? --Aardvark 01:03, 15 Aug 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • I'd like to see it deleted, but have no suggestions for what category could be used in it's stead. If we could get over our prejudice against uncatagorized pages, I'd say just delete the Class category and be done with it. As Snickles observed in Talk:Proposed Standards#Category Talk, "Categories are proving to not be the most useful method of organizing data for a game". Not all Wikis enforce 100% page catagorization. --Gymnosophist 01:55, 15 Aug 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • I'm still for 100% page categorization, though. Although I do agree that they aren't the best method of organizing data, they are rather nice to have, and help set up a general map. We could just dump the articles in category:classes into its master category, category:basics. --Aardvark 16:40, 15 Aug 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Putting Classes into Basics works for me. Categories are OK as a secondary means of navigation, but we still have plenty of work to do in terms of improving navigation. --Gymnosophist 20:29, 15 Aug 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • I went ahead and did the re-categorization. Note, however, that a fairly significant number of pages link to the category (including VisualWiki:Community Portal), as well as the two redirects class and classes --Aardvark 06:53, 13 Sep 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Also, if the category is deleted, don't forget category talk:classes. --Aardvark 06:58, 13 Sep 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • It cannot be deleted until all the pages that link to it are fixed. Class should get the content of Category:Classes + other stuff and then all those links should be changed to point to Class. Class is currently a redirect to Category:Classes. I'll never delete a page that has other pages directly linking to it ;-) ...and I still am not sure if we have reached a consensus yet ;-) Personally, I don't think Category:Classes was hurting anybody ;-) Maybe it could be split up like Trophy and Category:Trophies, so even though it's there, it's not really in the way. Hmm --JRSiebz 05:17, 15 Sep 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Agreed, actually. Personally, I'm becoming rather fond of the category. We probably SHOULD split it up like trophy however... article pages are MUCH better at imparting data than category pages, redirects work like they should... all in all, it's just better, IMO. I'll re-categorize the pages here later. Too tired now. --Aardvark (Talk | Contribs) 05:55, 30 Sep 2005 (MDT)
RESOLVED: The pages have been split up like Trophy and Category:Trophies. --JRSiebz (☎|§|‡) 17:45, 19 November 2005 (Central Standard Time)

70,001 post thread and Talk:70,001 post thread - I don't know how a thread, whose only value is a large number of posts is important? --JRSiebz | ☎ 23:14, 26 Oct 2005 (MDT)

Templates

Template:Golems deleted as unnecessary. --Gymnosophist 13:09, 12 Oct 2005 (MDT)

  • Template:Umbrella. It's ugly, and with only two items in the template with dubious relevance, useless as a navigational aid. --Aardvark (Talk | Contribs) 16:30, 11 Oct 2005 (MDT)

User:Aardvark/monobook.js. Could be useful, but user-defined javascript is apparantly disabled on the wiki. So the page is just useless clutter. --Aardvark (Talk | Contribs) 18:39, 10 Oct 2005 (MDT)

Player Pages

Lianlin & Mantic are currently blank, and should probably be deleted. Rokitman contains no text but "Rokitman is cool", and it is my opinion that it should probably go, too. AndWOMBAT doesn't really seem to have a purpose to it. --Aardvark 07:23, 11 Sep 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • Hmm. Don't know why I didn't think to check it before, but Rokitman actually contains a history. It was apparently vandalized by User:The real rokitman - I've reverted it back to the annoying allcaps version by Rokitman. My opinion on the other pages still stands. --Aardvark (Talk | Contribs) 10:57, 30 Sep 2005 (MDT)
  • WOMBAT, unless categorized and seriously expanded, is going to disappear. This is the acronyms page and this is it's thread. --JRSiebz | ☎ 23:19, 17 Oct 2005 (MDT)

I can live with player pages on non-notable persons, but player pages for their multies, too? Tiny Plastic Cowdude seems a bit much. It should be merged with Cowdude101 and deleted, IMO. --Aardvark 03:10, 27 Sep 2005 (MDT)

User:Kalbintion should be deleted. It was created by Thekillerfroggy. --Aardvark (Talk | Contribs) 15:24, 8 Oct 2005 (MDT)

Categories

I'll be deleting a senseless new category - Golems. All page links have already been deleted.--Gymnosophist 17:30, 4 Sep 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Category:Economy - contains a grand total of three articles, which are already sorted elsewhere, and I can't see it being expanded much anyway. --Aardvark 07:30, 11 Sep 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • Agreed. I'll make the necessary changes and delete the category. --Gymnosophist 08:59, 11 Sep 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Images

On 8/21/02, Pcentella said in Image talk:Gnolllips.jpg: "THIS IMAGE SHOULD BE DELETED: This image is not the in-game image. The correct one is Image:Lips.gif. All links have been corrected already." --Gymnosophist 17:38, 3 Sep 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Image:Dragon_pants.GIF and Image talk:Dragon_pants.GIF. Picture is friggin huge! It was intended to be used to illustrate a clan ([1]), but never linked properly. Also, clan is basically a "nobody" clan - just one of the many random "OMG WE HAF A METE TREE AND GYM!" pages. --Aardvark 02:53, 13 Sep 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • Image has now been linked properly (not by me of course), but I am still of the opinion that it should be deleted. I feel it's an abuse of the file upload function. --Aardvark 20:11, 17 Sep 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
From the image's talk page:
  • This image is huge, 800 x 600, 128.88 KB, why is it here exactly? --JRSiebz 00:11, 11 Sep 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Nothing links here, and it has no relation to KoL. I suggest deleting it. --Pcentella 08:20, 12 Sep 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • It was apparently uploaded for use on Stickirick paents of the dragon (another nobody clan page), but the author (Vinco) didn't spell the filename correctly, so it didn't work. --Aardvark 08:56, 12 Sep 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • I'm going to delete this file. It IS too huge, and once we move to the new server, bandwidth usage will be a slight bit more of an issue, especially if we start expanding rapidly because the lag will (hopefully) be gone. If we go over X bandwidth, we will have to pay real life money, not meat. We should perhaps consider limit images to either KoL images only and put an arbitrary file-size limit on anything not KoL related. That would take keeping an eye on newly uploaded images, perhaps, and the admins staying on top of things. (Y'all do an excellent job, BTW.) --~~

Templates

Template:Battle is unused. Template:Itemdropis only used by Template:Battle. Template:Acquire is superior to Template:Itemdrop, but because of items are now being pluraled (is that a word?) it has it's deficiencies. Comments anyone? --JRSiebz 13:39, 14 Aug 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • I'm all for deleting surplus junk, so, yes, let's delete these. I think the Acquire Template's treatment of plurals is fine. --Gymnosophist 01:45, 15 Aug 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Template:Daysince200508, Template:Daysince200509, & Template:Math5p1 were an attempt to autocalculate the moon phase using templates.

I'm not actually recommending it for deletion, I just have questions on what the Pages_for_Deletion category is for, and this seemed the logical place to ask. See Category_talk:Pages_for_Deletion for details. -- Old Ned 07:22, 14 Aug 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

I'm nominating a template and category I created, as it was in general a Bad Idea, and not what we will be needing. :category:Pages for Deletion, :category talk:Pages for Deletion, template:delete, and template talk:delete can all afford to go bye-bye. --Aardvark 16:02, 16 Aug 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

I have no idea what's up with Zassiliss and A Steak and Mushroom Pie. Anyone?--JRSiebz 13:15, 16 Aug 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • I'm afraid that I'm the one who did those useless player pages, although I didn't mean them to be useless. I was setting them as placeholders so clanmates could go back and update it. I realize now though that that was a fairly stupid thing to do and I apologize. Please delete the ones that you consider garbage. --Lianlin 08:31, 18 Aug 2005 (EDT)

  • We can delete Mall of Loathing as I've moved all it's content to the correctly named The Mall of Loathing (which had been incorrectly used as a redirect page). --Gymnosophist 19:20, 4 Aug 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Admittedly, there's really no harm in making it a redirect page, on the other hand, there's not really any benefit to having it either, and it's tidier to get rid of it.
  • Wow, as I previewed this, I noticed that Mall of Loathing is already a dead link. I guess that clearing all content from a page and saving is equilivent to deleting the page. The history is gone too. Interesting... --Gymnosophist 11:58, 5 Aug 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Oh, now I see - Mall of Loathing was deleted last night and I just didn't notice. --Gymnosophist 12:10, 5 Aug 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • I don't have a character at level infinity right now to check the naming/spelling, so which page is correct The Valhalladay Inn or Valhalliday Inn? We don't need two. The Valhalladay Inn has a long description, Valhalliday Inn has all the references, so I guess a creative merging would be best. Maybe they are both wrong! So is there a the and is it spelled with an i or an a?--JRSiebz 02:24, 31 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Orcish Frat House and Orcish Frat House (delete) need to be deleted. I'm trying to move The Orcish Frat House to Orcish Frat House but the Wiki won't allow it as that page name already exists. Orcish Frat House (delete) was created in an uncessful attempt to free up Orcish Frat House. The correct KOL name is Orcish Frat House, but all the Wiki content was placed in The Orcish Frat House and Orcish Frat House was incorrectly used as a redirect to The Orcish Frat House. It's a tangled mess, but deleting Orcish Frat House should prove to be the solution to this Gordian Knot. Thanks--Gymnosophist 00:39, 15 Aug 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • Yep, the lowercase version is corect. I always doublecheck stuff like this either in-game at the mall or from Coldfront's item desc, which pulls directly from KOL's database. --Gymnosophist 20:01, 17 Aug 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Rare Items

  • I never created a template for whips, which is why it's still "full". I probably won't get to that tonight. As for custom items, the data on the custom item page is also on the rare page, which makes me feel it is redundant. The category? It was down to two items, and somebody re-added all of the pages (le sigh). There is currently a handful of pages that link to custom item, although I do feel they would probably be better suited linking to the custom items section of the rare page, especially if that page was re-formatted. Maybe moved, as well; I feel it should be Rare Items, rather than simply rare. --Aardvark 00:58, 2 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Incarnation

  • Incarnation has no content, and apparantly, no purpose.--Aardvark 18:54, 20 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Is "Incarnation" the accepted term for a single ascension period? --Snickles 20:19, 20 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Apparently so. It was linked from Valhalla, but I hadn't observed this when I made the comment. In either case, I swapped the link to point to Ascension, which seems to better suit the purpose --Aardvark 20:29, 20 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Jolly Jeee-unfers also has no content and no links to it. (I know, this has nothing to do with Incarnation, but the situation seemed so similar...) -- Baltar 13:59, 4 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • I don't believe that Custom item is needed anymore, as the purpose is better suited by an updated rare page and the Custom Items Template --Aardvark 03:46, 26 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Question. Would this work... Moving Custom item to Rare Items, deleting it, then move rare to Rare Items? It seems like this would automatically correct all of the links, and leave us with a single Rare Items page... Anyone know if that is the case? --Snickles 14:30, 2 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • No, it doesn't work that way. --Snickles 14:45, 2 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • Template:Catredirect I created this template in hopes of standardizing the "category redirect" pages and simplify the process, but it turned out not to work. Unless somebody else can figure out a way to click in the text to refresh the page with the categories listed, this template should probably be deleted. Or instead of it saying "click here" it could be switched to a generic "click the category tab". It's up to you. The only page I attempted to implement the template on was Category:Accessories, so if this is deleted that will have to be reverted. --TheDotGamer 13:07, 30 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

To delete/edit/move pages ending with periods, you need to play with the URL, like so: http://kol.thraeryn.org/w/index.php?title=The_Shore,_Inc.&action=delete . It's a massive pain in the ass, of course, but it should work to get rid of those obnoxious pages. The pages don't load properly if you use the alternative URL, http://kol.thraeryn.org/wiki/The_Shore,_Inc. --Aardvark 03:03, 1 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Categories

For deletion in the near future, barring good argument: Category:Sporks, Category:Umbrellas, Category:Whips, Category:Saucepans, Category:Clubs, Category:Clan Stuff, Category:Clan Military Resources, Category:Axes Category:Accordions, Category:Containers. Making a category for the sake of making a category is not a good practice. --Snickles 20:25, 17 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • I stuck the Clan Military Resources stuff into the Clan Stuff category (which I think I created a few days back, but can't remember) just because it's all related clan info stuff. I don't see too much of a 'point' to the category, but I also don't want too many uncategorized pages floating around out there, and those pages don't fit into many other categories. Categories are a pretty easy way to get to some pages that might not be linked in to anything else. I do think we need to get rid of the Clans page soon and make sure all the listed clans are on the :Category:Clans listing. Same thing with the Players, and Category:Player. --jin 17:07, 18 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • That will seriously muck up the orphaned pages listing. Although, I don't really have a solution for the issue, since Clan and Player pages are better served through the use of categories. --Snickles 21:13, 18 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Then, perhaps we'll all just have to be orphaned. Maintaining pages that list all the players and clans is becoming a problem. Besides, if these pages are categorized and linked into from there, then they're not -really- orphaned. --jin 21:33, 18 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Perhaps there is an internal setting of some sort that will force the wiki to recognize links from category pages. As above, I agree that category pages are better for tracking players and clans. --Snickles 21:41, 18 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • I'm working on switching a few of those useless categories to templates. I've already done one for category:Custom Items and category:containers. They should both be empty now, or close to it. --Aardvark 06:34, 26 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
category:clubs, category:umbrellas, and category:saucepans have been replaced by templates. --Aardvark 01:57, 1 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • I got rid of the empty categories, but some still need the items removed from them. specifically: Category:Custom Items, Category:Whips... Our Custom item information needs to be cleaned up overall too. There's two requests on this page to delete related things, but what's our "standard" on the custom items pages? --jin 00:18, 2 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Yerp. We need an "alter of literacy." There have been a couple of instances in which pages that were deleted were promptly reinstated by unknowning folk. --Snickles 14:24, 2 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • A bunch of leftover dead recipe catagories need deletion: Category:Beer Recipes, Category:Mushroom Fermenting Powder Recipes, Category:Papaya Recipes, Category:Soda Water Recipes, Category:Spices Recipes, Category:Strawberry Recipes, Category:Tomato Recipes, Category:Whiskey Recipes.
  • Someone created Category:Other today, I guess Category:Miscellaneous wasn't good enough for them. Category:Other needs to be deleted. --JRSiebz 17:59, 8 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • HP Restorers and Category:MP Restorers can be deleted - I've changed all these to be in See Also sections. Two more categories bite the dust!! --Gymnosophist 14:31, 29 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Accessories:Increase Turns Per Day can be deleted. Also, there's a weird empty category (Usable items) that shows up as Category #79 in the Special:Categories list. When you click into it, there's nothing there, and nothing links to it, so I'm not sure why it shows up at all, but it does. --Gymnosophist 18:32, 28 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Thanks for fixing that - it was keeping me up at night!  :~)

Category:Muscle Increasers, Category:Mysticality Increasers, and Category:Moxie Increasers still have items in them and need to be phased out in favor of Muscle Modifiers, Mysticality Modifiers, Moxie Modifiers, and items with See Also sections. I may get to it, someone else may, either way, it's here so we all don't forget about it ;-) --JRSiebz 20:04, 29 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • I haven't forgotten about these. The problem was that there were two types of stuff mixed in the original Mxx Increasers catagories - stuff that increases your base stat gains and stuff that gives you substat gains. I've taken care of all the base stat stuff, but the substat gains stuff is a separate project that's on my list. The only things left in the old categories is the substat stuff. --Gymnosophist 21:37, 29 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • heh, I didn't know you had a list ;-) I just noticed them when i deleted the other stuff you cleared out ;-)--JRSiebz 21:39, 29 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Templates

  • There are a bunch of unused templates that need deletion: Template:Ccraft, Template:Dccraft, Template:Dcrafting, Template:Pcook, Template:Pcooking, Template:Scook, Template:Scooking, Template:Ssmith, Template:Ssmithing, Template:Tsmith, Template:Tsmithing. --Gymnosophist 21:42, 7 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Most of those are redirects, left over from when we first created the recipe templates. So, yeah.--Aardvark 17:39, 7 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • I've added another one: Template:Smithing. The basic smith recipes had used either Template:Smith or Template:Smithing pretty much at random. I changed all recipes (and the Standards page) so that they all use Template:Smith. So now we can delete Template:Smithing - isn't that exciting!!  :) --Gymnosophist20:32, 7 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Articles

  • I moved the content of the Meat tree article into the existing and correctly named Meat Tree article. The gutted Meat tree article needs to be deleted. --Gymnosophist 14:04, 5 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • There are a bunch of unnecessary redirect pages that should be deleted: White canadian, Razor sharp can lid, Bat wing chow-mein, Knob sausage chow-mein, Obligatory Pirate's Cove, Fettucini inconnu, Spooky Forest, Big Mountains, Bugbear Bakery, Typical Tavern, Dungeons of Doom, The Valley Beyond The Orc Chasm, Mysterious Island of Mystery, Daily Dungeon, Misspelled Cemetary, Sleazy Back Alley. I've cleaned up all the links so that nothing points to these. --Gymnosophist 22:44, 7 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Grrrrrrr - the redirect was pointing the wrong way on the Orcish Frat House - I'll have to go back and make changes. --Gymnosophist 22:58, 7 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Quest for Schlitz. Currently, just a redirect to Quest For Schlitz (The original author of both pages wasn't paying much attention to capitilization, I take it.) The second page may not belong either, as it's only relation to KoL is that it references a game on asymmetric.net. --Aardvark 05:11, 8 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • According to the web page (and English), Quest for Schlitz is the appropriate form. I moved the content, such as it was. --Snickles 17:04, 13 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Gnomish Gnomad Camp. No more content than already contained at The Gnomish Gnomads Camp, and nothing links to the former page. --Araltaln 22:39, 8 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Monsieur Bob -- teh asstended version needs to be deleted, there is no player in the game by that name. Player Monsieur Bob just created a duplicate player page, i'm assuming because he thinks his ascended character is worth a second player page... which it's not, that and "teh asstended version"? i mean come on. All content (which is a whole sentence) in Monsieur Bob -- teh asstended version could just be put in Monsieur Bob. This and the fact that Monsieur Bob -- teh asstended version is too long and messes up the column wide on the player category page. --JRSiebz 23:38, 30 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Topiary Golem needs to be deleted...is multi of Topiary golem. I made a rewrite thing in it a few hours ago, because I didn't know what to do with pages to be deleted, but I do now. --GusterLover6 01:47, 01 Jul 2005 (EST)

  • Oh, that was him? Thanks for reverting it, I only left it coz I found it a giggle at the time. --Agent Lex 20:34, 17 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • I'm going to go ahead and delete the page. The fourth page he changed, MrPresident, is probably also a candidate for deletion, or at least a rollback, but I'm going to hold off for now. Profanity has uses, but I don't think the value of the page justifies the language. --Snickles 14:04, 17 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • In my opinion, Category:Mod could have some good resources, except very little belongs in it. Perhaps make it a seperate page, and nuke the category? (I was seriously tempted to categorize myself there, forum mod and all). The other categories should be nuked, definately, or at the very least, move into weapons subcategories. --Aardvark
  • A new page for mods would be much better than having a Category. Unless someone wants to actually go through and make meaningful pages for all of the mods. --Snickles 21:13, 18 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • Just noticed that there's a random, empty Category:Pastamancer on the categories page. Wonder how that got there? --Agent Lex 07:43, 19 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Some page out there must still exists that defines itself as part of the category. It'll make it show up on the category listing even when no text exists in the category page. --jin 09:12, 19 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • The page was Nafajo. I removed the pastamancer categorization. category:player should be enough.--Aardvark 00:07, 20 Jun 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Category:Clan - redundant because there is a Category:Clans page. (I can't use a wikilink because it is interpreted as an actual category designation...hence the full link.) --Poopsmithers 01:56, 10 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Adding a colon before (:Category:Clan) should prevent it from designating it as a catagory. --Snickles 02:00, 10 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Either The Helper of Newbies or Helper of Newbies... One or the other is redundant, most likely the former. --Snickles 18:39, 11 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • taken care of much earlier, but just now remembered to archive it. --jin 02:39, 12 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Category:Hmoker - Clans don't need categories. --Snickles 13:09, 12 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)


The_Shore, Inc -- There seem to be two pages that VKOL has difficulty distinguishing between. One or both should be removed. --Snickles 21:25, 13 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • I've edited The_Shore, Inc so it doesn't think there's another page called The_Shore, Inc. THe period seemed to cause some problems for the filename, I guess. Is there another Shore page somewhere that needs to go byebye? --jin 22:47, 13 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • I think so... Check out Category:Locations. Two Shores. Editing one seems to edit them both. --Snickles 22:52, 13 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • That's just fucked up. It's gonna take either some URL manipulation, or some database editing to get rid of taht one with the period on it... This'll take some time.... In the future, let's remember never to put a period on the end of a page name. --jin 23:49, 13 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Strange. I left it alone for a while, chatted a bit, read the forums, went back to it, and the problem was fixed. Then I just recreated a new page for "The Shore, Inc".... So, let's hope this problem doesn't come back, because I'm not sure how we made it go away... --jin 00:27, 14 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Abominable Snowcone -- Duplicate; correct format is "snowcone" --Snickles 23:58, 15 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Angry Farmer Candy -- Same as snowcone. Correct is Angry Farmer candy. --Snickles 00:13, 16 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Awful Poetry Journal -- Same as above. Correct title is awful poetry journal. (And it doesn't give Rainy Soul Miasma.) --Yendor 10:12, 16 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • I believe these last three pages (and a few others that I deleted before it was requested) were created by The Phearsome Phantom, and while he's had great ideas for VKoL in the past, needs to learn a bit more about Wiki before "contributing" again... --jin 11:04, 16 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Buggsalt - This page (thanks to Yawgm8th) appears in three categories, yet has no actual information. I really don't like that guy. --Thræryn 19:24, 12 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Category:NPC Buy - Redundant category... --Snickles 14:53, 13 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • What is this category redundant with? --jin 22:47, 13 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • It seemed to me that there was overlap with the NPC Store category. Although, um, yeah, I see the difference. Blame it on the rain. --Snickles 18:30, 14 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

S.O.C.K or S.O.C.K. --Snickles 09:52, 20 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • Damnit. Here we go again. When there are two identical pages and one has a period on the end, it's impossible (as far as I've found) to delete one without deleting the other.......... DO NOT END A PAGE NAME WITH A PERIOD! --jin 11:04, 20 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Strange. Somehow I -was- able to delete one. Wish I could figure that mess out with the shore like that. --jin 11:10, 20 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Is it possible to just delete both, and recreate *only* the correct one? --Snickles 12:21, 20 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Mr. Eh -- Yiab beat me to it... --Snickles 23:28, 24 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Chewing Gum on a String -- Empty --Snickles 23:50, 24 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Hey Deze Map and Boss Bat Bandana -- Both have duplicates; I *think* these are the incorrect forms. --Snickles 11:54, 25 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Iron liver is an improper Liver of Steel --Snickles 15:46, 26 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Grr. Mysterious Island of Mystery and Obligatory Pirate's Cove for redundency -- Add "The" for correct pages. --Snickles 22:14, 27 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • I've redirected (I think, or else I'm going to) Mysterious Island of Mystery to The Mysterious Island of Mystery. However, on the pirate's cove: Obligatory Pirate's Cove is a redirect FROM The Obligatory Pirate's Cove. How do we want to handle that? Move it to the "correct" wording with The or leave it as a redirect? And how do we consolidate the data that's on the two Mysterious Island pages? I'm a bit confuzzled at the moment, but will figure it out soon enough... But what about that pirate's cove? --jin 22:53, 27 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
    • Geez, I looked at both pages and totally missed the obvious fact that they were THE SAME. ;) I vote move to "the" because I'm a consistency fiend, and either redirect the other or delete it entirely. In reality, are there any circumstances which would cause a redirect from "Obligatory Pirate's Cove" other than someone typing in that exact string into the search box? --Snickles 23:05, 27 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
      • If there is already an existing link to it, then we don't have to go back through and change it. It'll simply redirect. Or if someone creates a new page and mistakenly links to the wrong page they won't think it's missing content and try to add another page about it. --jin 23:07, 27 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)


Villa's Philanthropists -- I don't even know what this is. And Rowanthorn, unless someone intends to do something with it. --Snickles 22:28, 27 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Category:Radio Free Regalia, Category:Meatsmithing --Snickles 18:20, 29 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

And Yawgy's head shop is the only Category:Store --Snickles 18:34, 29 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

One more: Category:Meatsmithing ingredient. --Snickles 18:36, 29 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
