User Bage
Thanks for adding the badge, and you even put it in a good place. I don't really keep track of my count, heh. ;) -- Zeal  talk   contr  web 20:35, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

User Badge
Much like Zeal, but with better spelling... :) I appreciate the accolade, but that number represents considerably fewer useful changes, sadly. --Eirik Ratcatcher 19:06, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Don't you quallify for Category:1000club?
Do you want me to add the badge for you? -- Fandyllic  (talk · contr) 1:20 PM PDT 30 Oct 2007
 * I have over 1000 edits... but I thought it would be lame self-congratulating to add it myself :P Pratt 12:25, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Most of us added it ourselves... I need something in the realm of 100 contributions to top 10k, I believe. ;( --Sky (t · c · w) 22:07, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
 * I count 9735 for you :) Pratt 09:17, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Hah! I added you to the 1000 club! Now you don't have to do it and feel lame... ;-) --[[Image:gengar orange 22x22.png]] Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 5:18 PM PDT 1 Nov 2007

Item template and icons
I could see why some folks might find the icon image useful when looking at a list of components for an item (eg, Iron Counterweight). However, I don't think the icon is so useful when what you're talking about is a simple link to another item page. (the link to Plans: Iron Counterweight). You put some effort into putting that in there, so I'll not simply remove it on my own say-so. But I thought about it. --Eirik Ratcatcher 20:26, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I can't help it. I really like the icons :P Pratt 12:30, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

New category work
You can do it! Category:World of Warcraft axe items (Two Handed) and Category:World of Warcraft mace items (Two Handed) need your help!

And, as an aside, could you possibly remove the category "WoW mace items" from further two handers you deal with? :) --Sky (t | c | w) 11:13, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
 * will do :P Pratt 11:14, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

‎ Heh, I noticed you changed "ew" to "new", Fandyllic. I actually interpreted that "ew" as "ew! yuck! category work! bah!" :P Pratt 11:12, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

How do you find sell price of WC3 items?
Just wondering. -- Fandyllic  (talk · contr) 12:39 PM PST 4 Mar 2008
 * Right click, and drag it onto a Goblin Merchant :-) Of course, the item will be lost then, but you will know the value ;-) Pratt 22:50, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
 * So you actually have to get the item in-game somehow and sell it? Impressive. --[[Image:gengar orange 22x22.png]] Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 3:23 PM PST 4 Mar 2008
 * Yeah, I'm playing through the game and using the "reveal map" cheat to make sure I don't miss anything :-) 2 chapters to go, and I'm done with Reign of Chaos Pratt 23:28, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
 * It seems Frozen Throne is making it easier on me. The gold values are shown in the tooltips there :-) Pratt 11:13, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

love your wc3 additions...
But a request and a question for you. First, the request: when disambiguating in the way you've done on item page, avoid the evil line of doom, as well as ensuring that you indent properly, as I've done on Helm of Valor.
 * Aha. I copied those '' from another page... I can't remember which it was though...

Second, the quetion: Why all the different articles? The majority of the WoW items are obviously based on their WC3 equivalents, so why not put that information on the WoW items page? Just for the tooltips? --Sky (t | c | w) 23:18, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Mostly I'm just making all the items as quickly as possible, with a minimum of actual thinking :-P (This helps especially in those chapters with a time limit :-P) I figured I could make the intelligent decisions after all the items were in :-) Pratt 23:23, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Tomb of sargeras
There is a mission in WC2 named that as well. I redirect "The Tomb of Sargeras" to "Tomb of Sargeras", so you might want to disambiguate the items that need it. --Sky (t · c · w) 07:31, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Done :-) Is it really needed to use the postfix " (WC3)" though? " (Warcraft III)" looks a lot nicer to me (I've been using that in the item pages). Pratt 09:41, 11 March 2008 (UTC)


 * If you need to move them, feel free. I would advise against it, as keeping disambiguations short is not a bad thing. :) --Sky (t · c · w) 20:32, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Plurality in category names
I'm sorry, but I must disagree with you: You are advocating dual-pluralities (feet, hands, legs) that do not, to me, seem proper english usage. That is, "Feet items" vs "Foot items" etc. --Eirik Ratcatcher 19:42, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I see it as a short form of "feet slot items". With the category names the same as the slot names, it is very easy to find out which category an item should be in. Pratt 20:38, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
