New skin to Main Page
Hi, I can change skin of Main Page to this (css is in my own css)? Of course, including translation. This skin is using on German archeage wiki too. Greetings, -- Rycerzodie (talk) 10:22, 13 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Hello! I was actually about to ask you about reusing that page when I noticed your message, but I didn't realize it was from another wiki... Are you by chance in touch with the German wiki? I feel like we should probably ask them if it is alright to use their layout, even if the CC licensing technically already says as much. If we were just translating content or whatnot I wouldn't worry as much, but skins and layouts and such are a bit more IP than facts about the game. --Sigilbaram (talk) 18:32, 16 July 2013 (UTC)


 * German wiki probably have this skin from Guild Wars 2 wiki. But OK, I will ask admins from german wiki/guild wars 2 wiki. -- Rycerzodie (talk) 19:25, 16 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Can you add (or change exists) css codes, from my own css, in Common.css and others official css (without mainpage classes for now)? There contains fixed for some elements on wiki for example to diff comparison, and some classes to tables (e.g. Crafting, Gliders). -- Rycerzodie (talk) 19:46, 16 July 2013 (UTC)


 * I added your css to MediaWiki:Hydra.css and MediaWiki:Common.css. That's a nice style on the diff pages. XD


 * The only issue I see is that on lower resolutions the pictures on either side of the mainpage layout get pushed under the table and at really high resolutions there is a lot of white space on either side.--Sigilbaram (talk) 20:10, 16 July 2013 (UTC)


 * I was thinking about it - maybe try give there some contept art? -- Rycerzodie (talk) 20:30, 16 July 2013 (UTC)

I'm fiddling around with the html/css some to see if there is a better way to get that effect, while having it scale better. --Sigilbaram (talk) 20:32, 16 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Or main table can have max-width and min-width with margin on left and right.
 * Talking about using this skin here. -- Rycerzodie (talk) 20:40, 16 July 2013 (UTC)


 * I'm don't know much about licencses, so please read this. -- Rycerzodie (talk) 09:17, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

This wiki have option multiple sending files? I have a lot of icons to send (e.g. 46 for emotes). If yes, you can add me to group, which have this privileges (easy, I'm admin on polish subdomain of Runes of Magic wiki) or you can send it if I give you it? -- Rycerzodie (talk) 21:19, 16 July 2013 (UTC)


 * The "Drop files here" at the top of the edit section is the closest we have, but it doesn't let you rename the files or categorize them, or anything really, so it's horrible from an organizational standpoint, but if you aren't renaming the files and aren't OCD about categorizing everything it "works". --Sigilbaram (talk) 15:47, 17 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Ok, so great. I must save it icons in JPG from DDS, so I will give they final names. But now I improvement template ;) -- Rycerzodie (talk) 16:11, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

So, given the licensing issue it would probably be better if we just made a new main page. Our license is different from GW2 Wiki and some people can get REALLY zealous about those legalese things, so I'll put something else together to avoid any possible headaches. --Sigilbaram (talk) 16:22, 17 July 2013 (UTC)


 * I asked them "This can look like this (normal wikitable and 2 or 3 style in page [not identical], and other class name)? Or it must have other layout too?", but still I don't have answer ;/ -- Rycerzodie (talk) 16:58, 17 July 2013 (UTC)


 * I did a new skin for the mainpage table. It is similar, but uses themes from our wiki's skin instead of the background imageand stuff from the guildwars mainpage and I basically did the CSS from scratch although it might look similar, I didn't really compare the code afterwards *shruge*. I also translated it somewhat, but it's google with some interpretation so it probably isn't perfect on some of the things. Oh and I got new images for the characters on either side from the official site. There is less pixelation around the edges and they seemed to have redesigned the female elf. I also moved it over to the main page from my sandbox so that there is at least something there for now. --Sigilbaram (talk) 20:42, 17 July 2013 (UTC)


 * OK, I will check translation. But maybe change minor table? You can try it by copy my own css and changing {| class="mainpage" style="margin: 0;" width="100%" to {| id="mainpagesite" width="100%" class="wikitable wikitable2" (or alternative - screenshot on big version [old]). -- Rycerzodie (talk) 21:15, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

Someone from head admins should upload this favicon "img0.archeage.com/resources-201307170952/images/favicon.ico" (anti-spam...) to main folder of wiki and correct wiki name to "ArcheAge Wiki". Can you ask someone like Wynthyst about Polish subdomain? Working will be easier to me (of course, I will be contributing to English wiki too). If anyone from they will be ask about article, say they something like this: "Now Rycerzodie creating a lot of information box e.g. about mobs and creating templates to this. He planing created a lot of articles about game (he want cooperate with the best Polish fan site about ArcheAge).". I will be very happy, if you can transfer this questions/ideas to head admins ;) -- Rycerzodie (talk) 00:04, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
