== Hover Buttons ==


__TOC__
Yeah, they were an early proto-type of the similar kind I've got going on on Jo's wiki. Swapped over overlay for hover and it swaps between the two quite nicely. Aiming to get a glass-style effect going on at some point too :D [[User:Jocelyn Marshall|Jo]] ([[User talk:Jocelyn Marshall|talk]]) 20:07, 22 February 2019 (UTC)

Can't we put it back up near ''starbase 118''? XD '''[[User:Sky Blake|Deliera]]''' <big>♠</big> <small> [[USS Veritas|Veritas]] ▪ [[User talk:Sky Blake|talk]]</small> 04:33, 17 June 2019 (UTC)
Hello Rich. Wanted to ask if it would be possible for you to make a couple more of your totally awesome templates. Like the Condition Red one you made for me and the SDC. Anyway what I would like is one for Quarantined species and another for Believed Extinct species. Also you mentioned at some time that you were going to alter the color from gray to green on the permitted species template. Just wanted to know if that was still the plan? Thanks.  [[User:Canreb|Canreb]] ([[User talk:Canreb|talk]]) 15:28, 2 May 2014 (CDT)


Thanks. The Extinct one is perfect and I can work with the Quarantined as well. I know just when and how it will come in handy. As usual both are AWSOME!!!
:Danke! '''[[User:Sky Blake|Deliera]]''' <big>♠</big> <small> [[USS Veritas|Veritas]] ▪ [[User talk:Sky Blake|talk]]</small> 21:23, 17 June 2019 (UTC)


What kind of a warning template would you use for species that have been restricted to their homeworld and denied contact with the outside world?? Examples are the Wraith and the Vendorian. I could use one for them and their particular situation. [[User:Canreb|Canreb]] ([[User talk:Canreb|talk]]) 06:47, 4 May 2014 (CDT)
== Re:Remember the old days? ==


An interesting idea... now to implement it I will have to go back and do a little modification... of the completed species P to Z... May take me a couple weeks but I think I could do it... I think the reason I ended up using the species name twice is that I don't work on them on the wiki but e-mail them to my work computer and do the rewrites there. Then e-mail them back home to finish, tweak and move to the wiki. It prevented me from mixed up the files as I am dealing with 10 to 20 rewrites at a time. But your right... we do not need the name listed twice.
I'm not making you pasta. '''[[User:Sky Blake|Deliera]]''' <big>♠</big> <small> [[USS Veritas|Veritas]] ▪ [[User talk:Sky Blake|talk]]</small> 03:35, 11 April 2020 (UTC)


Also adding a little paragraph at the start may be a good intro to that species... Will ask the membership of the SDC what they think.  [[User:Canreb|Canreb]] ([[User talk:Canreb|talk]]) 15:04, 4 May 2014 (CDT)
== Er.. This page ==


Got a couple replies to the idea for putting the descriptive paragraph at the top... so far it has all been positive. I think that means we will adopt that for all of them. Now to add one to each of the completed species.
Hey, Rich. I was doing random wiki dive work after I got distracted updating a section, and stumbled over this page:
[[User:Canreb|Canreb]] ([[User talk:Canreb|talk]]) 15:18, 4 May 2014 (CDT)
https://wiki.starbase118.net/wiki/index.php?title=Smuggling


Hello Rich... I have a personal request. I am trying to spice up my personal characters page and while I may have learned a few things over the years I still have a lot to learn. I added a bunch of pics and some are to big and some are to small. How do I fix that. Also how would I go about putting the 3 diplomas I copied side by side instead of one on top of the other. I also need to find out who was in charge of the academy at the times I did the 3 different courses so I can corret that info on the diplomas. Any help you could give would be appreciated. Thank you. [[User:Canreb|Canreb]] ([[User talk:Canreb|talk]]) 09:20, 8 May 2014 (CDT)
It seems rather... specific. Should I retool it to be generic, or just move it to another page focusing on the nation it's talking about?


Thanks for that quotes template. I am sure it will come in handy. Also I have finished the proposal to submit to the CC in regards to those changes to the T/E we discussed on the forums. Did you want to see it before I submit it?
[[User:Ceciri|Ceciri Ariadust ]] ([[User talk:Ceciri|talk]]) 09:56, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
[[User:Canreb|Canreb]] ([[User talk:Canreb|talk]]) 16:00, 31 May 2014 (CDT)
 
Thanks for the NO CONTACT template. That will work perfectly for some of the species that are suppose to be off limits for contact.. Again Thanks... By the way the ESP proposal has been submitted to the CC for consideration. Sorry I did not let you get to see it before I did... RL got hectic... wife in the hospital... stuff at work... and I wanted to get it going before I lost all track of it due to this hectic activity around here... again thanks for the new template. It looks awesome  [[User:Canreb|Canreb]] ([[User talk:Canreb|talk]]) 12:20, 12 June 2014 (CDT)
 
Hate to ask but could I get a template for species that are protected by the Prime Directive. [[User:Canreb|Canreb]] ([[User talk:Canreb|talk]]) 07:57, 22 June 2014 (CDT)
 
Thanks Rich. As usual you have delivered a fantastic and useful template. THANK YOU!!! [[User:Canreb|Canreb]] ([[User talk:Canreb|talk]]) 19:09, 22 June 2014 (CDT)
 
Well we have the go ahead to make the changes to the ESP section of the wiki. Since your the better wizard with the wiki I think you should do that part. Then we need a separate section or page with a list of all the species on the wiki that have one form of ESP or another. I can help with that and add each new species that has been rewritten by the SDC as we get to them. How does that sound? [[User:Canreb|Canreb]] ([[User talk:Canreb|talk]]) 15:11, 27 June 2014 (CDT)
 
I took a look at the T/E page and I hate to say it with some of the completed species that I need to add to the list none of them have Telepathic or Empathic abilities. What I do have is a species with danger sense, one that can start fires, one that can influence others by talking to them, etc... I started to alter the species section to add the following sections, population % with the ability, type of ability and the high, low and average level of the ability. Any more ideas, let me know. [[User:Canreb|Canreb]] ([[User talk:Canreb|talk]]) 22:52, 6 July 2014 (CDT)
 
Also can I get you to add the following line to the 3 pic templates used at the top of every species wiki page [[T/E Rating System|ESP Ability]] = Yes, Some, Few, Rare, None |, the permitted, restricted and forbidden ones. It seemed logical to add this line as well to these templates. the Yes, some, few rare and none are the possible choices for this line. [[User:Canreb|Canreb]] ([[User talk:Canreb|talk]]) 06:50, 7 July 2014 (CDT)
 
Hello. A separate ESP banner just for those few species that do have the capability does make sense. I would like to see and maybe comment on the finished product. I think it should be able to be adjusted to show the suggested items. Thanks for the suggestion. [[User:Canreb|Canreb]] ([[User talk:Canreb|talk]]) 12:42, 15 July 2014 (CDT)
 
==Academy transcript==
 
Hi Rich, I'm finding the new template for Academy transcripts incredibly confusing as the first semesters for every year seem to be worked a different way to the second and third semesters. I know there is probably a logical reason for this, but to an outsider, it's just confusing. Can you clarify for me? [[User:Alexander Richards|Lieutenant Alexander Richards]] ([[User talk:Alexander Richards|talk]]) 07:57, 5 May 2014 (CDT)
 
:That would be fine. I did figure it out in the end, still don't know why the listings for the table are different between semester 1 and semesters 2&3 for each year though. Doesn't mess with the actual calculations for the top of the transcript though. [[User:Alexander Richards|LtCmdr Alexander Richards]] ([[User talk:Alexander Richards|talk]]) 12:03, 5 May 2014 (CDT)
 
:: Glad you got it sorted. I could have perhaps been clearer with what I was saying but you got it figured out anyway. :) Awesome job with this as always Rich! [[User:Alexander Richards|LtCmdr Alexander Richards]] ([[User talk:Alexander Richards|talk]]) 17:08, 5 May 2014 (CDT)
 
Hi, Rich. I was looking over the template and one of the folks I recruited was wondering if there's a way to put more than 60 credit hours on one transcript. Said friend of mine has 69 credit hours, but the max allowance is to the best of my knowledge 60. Let me know? [[User:Chythar Daniel Skyfire|Chythar Daniel Skyfire]] ([[User talk:Chythar Daniel Skyfire|talk]]) 19:27, 27 May 2014 (CDT)
:: Not necessarily. To my understanding just wants to add more classes, not adding on an extra year. 69 credits in total. [[User:Chythar Daniel Skyfire|Chythar Daniel Skyfire]] ([[User talk:Chythar Daniel Skyfire|talk]]) 13:31, 28 May 2014 (CDT)
::: 72 credits in total, 6 credit hours per semester instead of 5. Not tacking on an extra year. [[User:Chythar Daniel Skyfire|Chythar Daniel Skyfire]] ([[User talk:Chythar Daniel Skyfire|talk]]) 23:25, 28 May 2014 (CDT)
:::: I was doing a bit more looking around once I saw your [[Template:Transcript-KBrice_Postgrad]] -- Is it possible for there to be something similar to a "running start" program instead? something like pre-admission coursework?
::::: As I said, 72 credits in total: 6 per semester instead of 5. I know Voss's transcript has 72 credits on it because I'm helping design it. [[User:Chythar Daniel Skyfire|Chythar Daniel Skyfire]] ([[User talk:Chythar Daniel Skyfire|talk]]) 00:21, 3 June 2014 (CDT)
:::::: That's fine. The idea would be 12-15 credits for the "running start" to reduce the core credit requirements (According to [User:R'raika Voss|Voss], whose behalf I am inquiring upon.) Whichever you feel more comfortable with. [[User:Chythar Daniel Skyfire|Chythar Daniel Skyfire]] ([[User talk:Chythar Daniel Skyfire|talk]]) 00:54, 3 June 2014 (CDT)
 
Hi Rich. I've got a proposal about the Medical transcripts. From my point of view, counselors and nurses belong to Starfleet Medical, too. Therefore, they should be given a diploma by SF Medical at graduation. I've checked out, that this can be easily done with the existing templates. The diploma as well as the academic transcript would need change in that case.
 
Would you like to change that aspect or would you be willing to let me change the templates? ([[User talk:Dial|talk]]) 02:03, 28 June 2014 (CET; GMT+2)
 
Hey Rich, how do I enter a second Major in the template instead of a Minor? The Academy pages say you can double-major, but the template only seems to take a Major and Minor. -[[User:Jackford B. Kolk|Kit Kizito]] ([[User talk:Jackford B. Kolk|talk]]) 15:13, 29 July 2014 (CDT)
::lol. So simple it didn't even occur to me. Thanks. -[[User:Jackford B. Kolk|Kit Kizito]] ([[User talk:Jackford B. Kolk|talk]]) 09:05, 30 July 2014 (CDT)
 
== Major classes ==
 
Just had a look at [[Academy Majors and Minors/Counseling]] and found it kind of odd that Counselors had to take ENG: Life Support Systems . . . Anyway. Just thought I'd point that out.
 
Also: There's the Liberal Arts: Application of Creative Design in Holodecks that's mentioned to be a class in the Engineering Majors and Minors, but isn't listed in the Engineering School page. I'd assume it comes under either Material Engineering or Programming? [[User:Sky Blake|Sky Blake]] ([[User talk:Sky Blake|talk]]) 18:24, 6 May 2014 (CDT)
 
:Makes sense. Just seemed a little odd that they were taking a course that had very, very little to do with counselling itself.
 
:I'll take a look. Don't count on a good description or anything, though. :P Should we swap "Liberal Arts" for "ENG323"? [[User:Sky Blake|Sky Blake]] ([[User talk:Sky Blake|talk]]) 18:37, 6 May 2014 (CDT)
 
== Enlisted Ranks for the PC/PNPC/NPC rosters? ==
 
Hi! I was just wondering if you had plans to add the enlisted and marines to those rosters? I noticed an issue when I was trying to add some PNPCs who hold ranks like Petty Officer or Cadet.
 
Thanks for your time!

==LoAs on Darwin History Page==
 
Dude, there are no LoAs on the Darwin Crew History page - the reason I took that down was because it's diverting people to go look at nothing! [[User:Diego Herrera|Diego Herrera]] ([[User talk:Diego Herrera|talk]]) 18:24, 1 June 2014 (CDT)
 
== re: How to crop ==
 
Still confused and clueless. It's gonna take me months if not years to learn. :P I'm probably just gonna stick with resizing via Paint.NET. [[User:Sky Blake|Sky Blake]] ([[User talk:Sky Blake|talk]]) 05:20, 6 June 2014 (CDT)

I was about to adopt this character to help flesh out the Victory, but saw you were working on her. You still plan to take her? Didn't want to steal her from you. :D [[User:Nugra|Nugra]] ([[User talk:Nugra|talk]]) 20:40, 12 June 2014 (CDT)
 
== Ship Motto ==
 
Hi Rich! I've reverted the Garuda's motto for now -- the new quotation format was getting lost on the page and it wasn't really clear exactly what it was.
 
Also: The new sidebar looks amazing!

== Discovery B Crew History ==
 
So, when I was looking at the ''Previous Ships Called Discovery'' and I went to view the crew history of the '''Discovery B''', I noticed it redirects to '''Discovery C''' crew history. Is that deliberate? If it isn't, I'd like to take it on as a project. [[User:Chythar Daniel Skyfire|Chythar Daniel Skyfire]] ([[User talk:Chythar Daniel Skyfire|talk]]) 10:56, 23 June 2014 (CDT)
 
== Issues with new Pips? ==
 
Hi! Just wanted to see if you knew that there was an issue with the mirror pips thing you created to make it look like a collar. There doesn't seem to be one for the marine 2nd Lieutenant. Just FYI. http://wiki.starbase118.net/wiki/index.php?title=Zh%27Eriss,_Talisa

== Wiki Ops team members ==
 
Rich, looks like you don't have anyone from Columbia on wiki ops yet ... want me to send out a call? If you have a letter or bullet points, I can use that. [[User:Ben Livingston|Ben Livingston]] ([[User talk:Ben Livingston|talk]]) 06:21, 26 July 2014 (CDT)
:I'd love to be on the Wiki Ops team, and I'm from the ''[[USS Columbia|Columbia]]''... -[[User:Jackford B. Kolk|Kit Kizito]] ([[User talk:Jackford B. Kolk|talk]]) 16:32, 27 July 2014 (CDT)
 
:Same here ;) - Character is Ethan Brice -  [[User:Ethanbrice|Ki]] ([[User talk:Ethanbrice|talk]]) 13:29, 28 July 2014 (CDT)
 
== Pips templates ==
Sorry. I didn't realize the float-right was for the double-pips thing. It was messing up my Sidebar, but I'll figure out a work around. -[[User:Jackford B. Kolk|Kit Kizito]] ([[User talk:Jackford B. Kolk|talk]]) 09:39, 7 August 2014 (CDT)
 
== Pip120 ==
Thanks for sorting out the issue. I finally saw it just after you did. Now it's all working great. Thanks a ton! -[[User:Jackford B. Kolk|Kit Kizito]] ([[User talk:Jackford B. Kolk|talk]]) 10:30, 7 August 2014 (CDT)
 
Re: switch vs if, I'll look into that and learn it for other stuff, but I ''think'' the if is okay for now because I think the colors all match for the DS9, FI, and Slanted but are just different for the Default pips, so two options should be okay. But I suppose I haven't looked into color matching for the STO pips yet...  -[[User:Jackford B. Kolk|Kit Kizito]] ([[User talk:Jackford B. Kolk|talk]]) 10:46, 7 August 2014 (CDT)

Hover Buttons

Yeah, they were an early proto-type of the similar kind I've got going on on Jo's wiki. Swapped over overlay for hover and it swaps between the two quite nicely. Aiming to get a glass-style effect going on at some point too :D Jo (talk) 20:07, 22 February 2019 (UTC)

Search bar has been displaced again

If by any chance you get a free hour or so, can you put the search bar back to where it was supposed to be? At the moment, the side panels go:

  • starting points
  • Starbase 118
  • members
  • fleet
  • browse
  • SEARCH
  • tools

Can't we put it back up near starbase 118? XD Deliera Veritastalk 04:33, 17 June 2019 (UTC)
