General Site FAQ (the important stuff)
Q: What do these images mean?
A: These image tags are used to indicate content (usually items) that are no longer obtainable.
Simply put, no longer obtainable or accessible by any means until further notice.
Q: What does this mean then?
A: These image tags are used to indicate content that is reoccurring / returning annually (usually once a year) from an event.
In other words, they will return at least once a year.
Archives FAQ
Q: What are the Archives?
A: The Archives were introduced as a way of accessing previous recorded information more easily.
Q: How does this affect me?
A: It shouldn't have a major effect on regular wiki users. It should make pages less cluttered and more clean. You should be seeing less strikethroughs and collapsibles when browsing.
Q: Will this affect tag searching?
A: It should not. Lists should still be functional and working as if the Archives were never added.
Q: Will this affect searching in general?
A: It shouldn't. If you happen to accidentally stumble onto an archived page from searching, you will be able to access the original page via a Note near the bottom of each page.
Q: Why are there no rarity tags on the archive pages?
A: It's unnecessary to do so, considering the original pages have them.
Q: The page is taking longer than usual to load. Is this usual?
A: There are a lot of items to load as the list is automatically updating. It should not take more than 10 seconds to load.
Q: I can't access the Archives. Is there any other way to access an archived page?
A: If you are having issues with loading the Archives, navigate to the page you wish to access archived content, and add '-old' to the end of the url, for example, 'http://aq-3d.wikidot.com/nightfall-old'. As always, there will be a note at the bottom of the page which allows you to return to the current page. Alternatively, you may search up a page and add "old" to the end of the name.
Q: How can I access the Archives aside from going to the homepage?
A: The archives can be located on the top bar or the left side bar, under Other Info.
Q: I don't like *example* / Something is wrong. Can I change it?
A: If something has updated in-game, you may update any wiki and Archive pages related to whatever got updated in-game (if you wish to create/update any Archive pages, please refer to the section below). If you have any questions, suggestions or concerns regarding the Archives, please PM a wiki mod or admin here, or you may message a wiki mod/admin on Twitter here.
Creating/Updating Archive Pages
Q: Should I update the page first then Archive the old information, or the other way around?
Archive the old information first, then add the new information to the wiki page you're updating immediately after archiving the old information.
Q: I'm updating information on a wiki page. How do I check if the page I'm updating information on has an Archive page?
A: Add "-old" at the end of the URL of the wiki page you're updating (here is a picture for reference).
Q: The wiki page I'm updating doesn't have an Archive page. How do I make one?
A: If an Archive page has not been created for the page you're updating, you will need to make one. Please refer to this step-by-step guide in order to create an Archive page:
1. Add "-old" at the end of the URL you're updating if you haven't already, otherwise skip to Step 2.
2. You will see a page that looks like this. Click "create page"; this will put you in the editing window.
3. After you click "create page", your page will look like this. In the "Title of the page" text box, put brackets around the word "Old", like this.
4. Copy all the information from the page that you're updating in the editing window of the Archive page (including the image) then save and create the page.
5. After creating the page, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click "Tags". Add "_#" (with "#" being the first letter of the page name. If it's a number or symbol then use it the way it is) and "old" separated with a space, then click "Save". After you add your tags, scroll down to the bottom of the page again, click "Options", "Parent", add the word "archives" then save the parent.
(Note: Archive pages are only for wiki pages that get updated with new information. If a wiki page hasn't been updated with new information since its creation, then it doesn't need an Archive page.)
Q: The wiki page I'm updating has an existing Archive page with information on it. How do I update the Archive page?
A: You will need to use tabs. If the Archive page doesn't have tabs, use the code below:
[[tabview]]
[[tab Old]]
Information that you're adding goes here
[[/tab]]
[[tab Older]]
Information that was already on the page goes here
[[/tab]]
[[/tabview]]
If the Archive page already has tabs, create a new tab to put the information you're adding in using the code below (put the code in the line below [[tabview]]):
[[tab Old]]
Information that you're adding goes here
[[/tab]]
Also, please use this code when updating images as well.
Sets FAQ
Q: What are set pages?
A: Set pages are pages that will include every item in a set, including its total crafting time, total stats, total cost, etc. Most set pages will also show the full image of a set being worn. For editors, these images are not required, but highly recommended.
Q: Where can I find set pages?
A: They can be accessed from any item that is a part of a set. They will also be linked in the Items section.
Q: Why doesn't __ __ __ have a set page?
A: There are a few reasons as to why a set page for a set of items isn't made: insufficient information, set lacks more than 4 items, or the page has not been made yet. The answer you are probably looking for is the second one. There are some exclusions, but the general idea is that no set page is being made if there are less than 4 items.
Q: These items definitely make a set, there should be a set page!
A: If you strongly believe that certain items belong to a set (eg. David's set with Unbound Boots/Gloves) please send over an explanation in the Wiki Suggestions Thread.
Q: I am missing a set piece for a set. Can I still take an image for it?
A: Yes, please go ahead. It is optimal for you to have all pieces of a set, but is not necessarily required. Do note that not wearing a full set for an image will be prone for replacement. For example, if you do not have a helm, you can still add an image, so long as you do not exceed 2 missing set pieces.
…of course, this obviously means you still can't miss out on the vital pieces of the set. In this general order, they are overlooked more frequently if you are missing a said piece: Weapon, Belt, Boots, Gloves, Helm, Cape, Shoulders, and Armor.
If you're missing an Armor but have all the rest of the pieces… you may want to get the Armor before adding your images to the Wiki.
Please ensure that your image also falls under the general Image Submission Guidelines.
Q: Where are the female images?
A: They will be added in as they are received. In such cases, if you do have a female image, please use the typical [[tabview]] method to add said images onto a page.
Q: I don't understand how the stat table system works!
A: Ping me or PM me and I'll deal with it.
