User talk:Chovynz
Welcome to my Wiki talk page . Here you'll see conversations, discussions and various other guff. Feel free to leave comments or suggestions or replies! Complaints, concerns and friendly abuse are all welcome. Call me a Marshmellow and I'll stick pins in your sandals though.
If there is a specific topic you want to talk about, and it isn't already on here, then "make a new section".
Rheinland Military Page
For what it's worth, I agree with you that everything should be on the Rheinland Military page to avoid confusion. I thought I clicked something wrong at first when I was redirected. ~RogueCharlie
Outdated template usage
You should use the Outdated template only for ships that are displaying stats as of version 4.84. Do not use it for ships that are up to date but that have a uncompleted page. "Skatepro0 13:22, 18 June 2009 (MDT)"
I think it should also be used for ships that have an outdated description. I have completed a new template that can be used for pages that are simply incomplete: Template:Incomplete -Tazuras 15:55, 18 June 2009 (MDT)
Please continue this conversation on Discovery_Wiki:General_Discussion#Outdated_Template_usage. Thanks :) Chovynz 16:02, 18 June 2009 (MDT)
Tazurus "Chovynz To Do list"
Are these things only you can do or that others can? I think this is the type of content that is needed on the Discovery Wiki:TODO page or the Outdated Template could be added to some of them. -Tazuras 17:39, 17 June 2009 (MDT)
- Well, anyone can do them. This is my personal list of things I want to do. I have no problem with other people doing them, Nor do I have a problem with people taking things from this list, or making their own. As the title says, it's Chovynz's To Do's. If yo uwant to take from here and put it in the "to be edited later" be my guest. This is my thinking out loud area without impinging on others. Chovynz 19:45, 17 June 2009 (MDT)

RE: Some little issues
Heya, thanks for the tips! I'm new to wiki editing and had no idea how to delete the page so just blanked it hoping it'd go away if it contained no data. I'll remember to use spoiler templates in the future; again I wasn't sure how to do that. --Bicko 05:57, 24 August 2009 (MDT)
Ships Editing
Hi, you said it's stupid not to ask, so i'm asking. Where do i get informations like: Power recharge, Ship price (just sell everything and multiply by 2 ?), Opt. weapon class. And finaly how about Reviews, i see part of them under Ship Infobox. May be make some Template for it? --Demoni 10:56, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
Generator
I'm just waiting for input on three things for the ships page:
- Is the name displayed over the image correct, or what should I change?
- Do you approve of the added "Purchase Includes" section?
What page[s] should Gunboat and Cruiser forward turrets link to?
- Thanks! -cshake 20:44, 1 October 2009 (MDT)
Found the reason the Osiris wasn't showing up in the generator, shiparch.ini is missing linear_drag for it, which should be forwarded to the Devs as a bug. I'm assuming it to be 1 now, since it is 1 for all other ships. The tool you requested is now ready to use as well. (All types of content generation can now be found at http://www.cshake.homeip.net/flwiki/, I set up a selection redirect page there. If you could update the sidebar that would be cool.) -cshake 23:11, 3 October 2009 (MDT)
Images to be replaced
For most of the ships there, the forum thread HQ Smooth Renders has a good .png version. Should we wait until .png support is available on the wiki, or maybe convert them to a 'standard' size .jpg with a 'standard' background color and updated the images? -cshake 20:47, 1 October 2009 (MDT)
Battlestar II
Page will need to get updated by you, since you know what you want to do exactly. "Skatepro0 19:35, 3 October 2009 (MDT)"
New Mod Changes
Ok, so it seems that with the new version, class 1 guns are now bomber torpedoes, while hp_torpedo_special_1 is still non-bomber torpedoes. We're gonna need a change of the ship template to accommodate different types of torps, and somehow indicate the difference in the CD/T section. -cshake 21:38, 4 October 2009 (MDT)
Specific questions:
- Class 1 Guns are now Bomber-specific torpedoes, and Torpedoes are now Fighter-specific. I think this warrants a change of name for both pages.
- Class 6 Guns are still guns, but are bomber-specific. Class 6 Turrets are the turret counterparts now. I've added comments about these two changes on the Ship Equipment page. I don't think that these warrant a change of page name.
- For my ship generator, I'm counting the number of hardpoints that can mount either type of torpedo, and putting that in the CD/T template line. The CD line, as before, is filled with the number of hardpoints that can only mount CDs. To distinguish between the cases, I added the torpedo mount point to the Hardpoints list in the page, with each saying what it can mount.
- Because of item #1, I want to know what the links for those hardpoints should point to, if the page names are changing.
- If we are going to change the names of the torpedo pages, I figure we might as well add a new page for Gunboat and Cruiser forward guns while we're at it. This would also mean changing the links in my generator, which is why I'm waiting on input from you before giving the go-ahead for using the generator.
