Lore Place Summary Template

Not sure if you're watching the LPP talk page, but I've been updating the template in my sandbox based on your suggestions in the How to Help section of the LPP project page. I'd appeciate it if you could look over my changes, and see if they fix the issues that you brought up, before I make the changes to the main template. Thanks! --Enodoc (talk) 15:05, 8 April 2013 (GMT)

I'll be honest, I haven't really got the time to look thoroughly at this. At a glance it looks alright though. — TheRealLurlock (talk) 12:34, 9 April 2013 (GMT)

Fair enough, thanks for getting back to me. I'll make the changes to the template after I've tested it a bit more, and if any issues come out afterwards we can address them then. --Enodoc (talk) 18:13, 9 April 2013 (GMT)

Tense Template

I was thinking about changing the tense template to be more general, like the MWTense template, but with an extra, optional parameter for namespace. If omitted, it would default to the second word in all other namespaces except lore, or, if the namespace is provided, it would use the second word in JUST that namespace. What do you think? Are there any situations that I may have missed? Jeancey (talk) 20:10, 22 April 2013 (GMT)

Yeah, I was just thinking about that, see: UESPWiki:Community_Portal#Tense_vs._MWTense. — TheRealLurlock (talk) 20:12, 22 April 2013 (GMT)

Invitation to join a translating team.

Please help us translate this

Dear Lurlock,

You are invited to join a team that will be attempting to translate the unknown language on the Word Wall in the 6th Chapter of the Black Book Waking Dreams, the Word Wall that gives the third word ( D3V ) of the Dragon Aspect shout. There are strange, moving words behind the Dragon Language text on the Wall, written in an unrecognisable language. The Dragon Language part of the Word Wall has already been translated. It is the moving words in the unrecognisable language that this project hopes to translate.

This project will be happening in my sandbox, which is open to collaboration by invited team members. The talk page of the sandbox is open to other contributors as well. I hope to see you get involved in the project. I have hand-picked you because you may have previously been involved in Elder Scrolls language translations in the past on the wiki, particularly if you worked on the Magic Script Alphabet or the Elder Alphabet pages.

Kind regards,
Daric Gaersmith

{{Skyrim Hold}}

Hi Lurlock! {{Skyrim Hold}} has been sitting in uncategorized templates for a while, so I just went to stick a category and realized that it isn't currently in use and hasn't really been touched in several weeks. Did you still have plans for it? ⇠eshe^talk 13:35, 29 April 2013 (GMT)

Yeah, so the purpose of it was related to those color-coded icons on the place pages, but since everybody screamed at me for it, I ended up changing it back. There was a bit more discussion about the color-schemes used, but everyone kind of lost interest. This is kind of why I went ahead and did that in the first place, because it takes forever to get any input on things and nobody ever even contributes to the discussion until they're suddenly offended by me taking some initiative. This is why it's so hard to get anything done around here. People get mad if you do something without discussing it first, but then when you do start a discussion, they just ignore it and don't contribute so what's the point? Eh. Sorry about the rant, just still kind of annoys me the reaction I got from this. — TheRealLurlock (talk) 17:48, 29 April 2013 (GMT)

Eh, I understand. So were you wanting to hold on to it for now in hopes of resuming the colors discussion, or no? I find things often go a bit smoother the second time around, so it might not be a bad idea to give it another go. I was personally interested in getting the colors sorted out, especially if they're different in different places on the site. ⇠eshe^talk 17:56, 29 April 2013 (GMT)
