Welcome to the wiki :) If images are causing some trouble, links are case sensative. I've deleted the older pic, but if it wasn't showing on page, it was prob cos the ".JPG" bit was in capitals rather than the small letters of the links on the page. If you need any help, the Admins are here to help. Always good to see a new editor :) - Lt. SalakUSS TigerTalk 07:21, 6 July 2008 (EDT)

Thanks :) I gotta admit, trying to get my head around this is proving tricky... - Ensign Vetri

Well you seem to be doing fine so far. Don't be afraid to ask if you come unstuck though, or if you want help with coding anything. :) - Lt. SalakUSS TigerTalk 07:53, 6 July 2008 (EDT)

Now you mention it... :) How do you set up the nav things that appear in the top right of some pages (e.g. Capt. Drawoh's)? I've been able to work out most of what I've done so far by trial and error, but I'm getting nowhere on that one. - Ensign Vetri.

There are several different layouts for those. Have a look around at other profiles, pick the one you like best and I'll have a look if you like. - Lt. SalakUSS TigerTalk 10:23, 6 July 2008 (EDT)

Ideally, something like Cura Stone's one. Just with a different pic, obviously :) It seems to be the general theme for Ops character pages, so I thought I'd try and get mine to fit in.Della Vetri 10:31, 6 July 2008 (EDT)

Take a look, should be in place now. I used T'Lea's as a framework, but made a few minor tweaks. Yours is prob the only profile on Ops where clicking hide on the Table of Contents actually does what it's meant to do now :D If you want it changed, you can have a play in the 118Wiki:Sand Box or just give us a shout. - Lt. SalakUSS TigerTalk 10:34, 6 July 2008 (EDT)
oh, and the code is {{DVetri}} if you want to add it to another page ;) - Lt. SalakUSS TigerTalk 10:38, 6 July 2008 (EDT)

Many thankings. that's just what I was after :) As for the contents list, my browser won't open the thing again, but that's something I can't be bothered to argue with the software about :P Della Vetri 10:38, 6 July 2008 (EDT)

Works fine with me on IE... the hide tab is meant to hide the Table of Contents, but it hides a chunk of the nav on most pages. It should be replaced by a show tab on a one line header, saying "Contents [show]" or similar. - Lt. SalakUSS TigerTalk 10:41, 6 July 2008 (EDT)

Character pages

You may have noticed I've been renaming most of the NPC pages after they've been created. If you want to know why, please read Naming pages properly#Specificity, which deals with conventions for the naming of such pages on this wiki. Thanks - Lt Cmdr. SalakUSS TigerTalk 02:49, 18 October 2008 (EDT)

Sorry - I didn't actually come up with most of those NPC pages, and I wasn't sure how to rename 'em. Thanks for sorting it, and I'll try and remember to format 'em properly in future... Della Vetri 07:51, 18 October 2008 (EDT)

No problem. There's a move button on the top of each page (3 to the right of "Edit") so that can be used if you know the page is at the wrong title. The old page title automatically gets set up as a redirect, so there shouldn't be a problem with broken links. - Lt Cmdr. SalakUSS TigerTalk 09:50, 18 October 2008 (EDT)
Thanks. This will go on the list of things I'm learning about wiki coding... Della Vetri 10:23, 18 October 2008 (EDT)

Conny-B Crew

There's a dedicated category, Category:Constitution-B PCs that the old crew used. Would be cleaner to put the Primary characters in that category (removing the Eagle crew first of course; they can go in Category:Constitution-B Alumni) then leaving them in the same category as ship history, locations, etc I'd've thought? Would be more in line with other ships too. - Lt Cmdr. SalakUSS TigerTalk 16:24, 1 February 2009 (EST)

I thought that's what I was doing... Ah well. Guess I've still got a lot to try and get right, huh... I'll try and get it all sorted if I can get the time, but that's not likely to be for a while, I'm afraid. Della Vetri 18:04, 1 February 2009 (EST)

Hey there! Added a Training Team Awards page and noticed through the records that you've actually earned the highest training ribbon, the Gold Excellence in Training ribbon, so I updated the ribbon on Vetri's page and nav (using the Template:Ribbons Rack).
