Hello there :)

Can you please check if your bot is working as intended? The abilities are getting all full of error messages. Thanks :) Hobbes (talk) 18:33, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

It is, or rather I am (the bot did the heavy lifting but I wouldn't dream of letting such a complicated regex loose on a wiki :o ). The parse errors weren't caused by the replacement text, but by the calls on the skills pages being "bad". I've cleaned those up. Now I just have to fiddle with the actual template itself more to get it working. (If I can't I'll just regex the crap out of things and fix them. I won't leave stuff broken. :) ) --Tvol (talk) 18:39, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
No worries, the issue was that I'm currently using the info on all the class pages for a mod project and all of sudden everything started turning red. Thanks for the work :) Hobbes (talk) 18:58, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

Class Tree

10-4. I put the current mediocre rank icons up this morning, I think. Certainly looking forward to them being upgraded. I'm so glad you made the Template:Ability (LW2). The old one was atrocious to add to. I just need to learn how to page break properly in the b-info pop-up window.
This is my first wiki edit ever, so I learned a bunch watching your updates. I never would've thought about putting the extra info on a mouse-over, or how to do it. BTW, if you think your question mark is poor, check out what I uploaded, lol.
I'll be filling out more text info for now, and working on the Psi Operative Tree.
Oh, and I just learned about '~~~~'. <Phew>. --HubrisBliss (talk) 23:30, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

Glad I could teach by doing. :) (Though regexes and Pywikibot helped a lot in sorting those ability templates.) As for the info pop-up, I've never been able to get title text to respect breaks on a wiki. I think it's still possible, but would require tweaking the CSS used by the wiki to add a new class for these images specifically. --Tvol (talk) 23:59, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
Oh, and I forgot to mention, that this line-break issue is part of the reason I moved the info bits to their own sub-pages. (Or will be moving them.) That way it's easy to transclude those lists elsewhere, in-case there's need of a stop-gap of some sort. --Tvol (talk) 00:12, 28 January 2017 (UTC)
Specifically, where are you moving the info bits? Not the individual perk templates? i.e. Template:Alpha Mike Foxtrot (LW2), after | s_info =. If somewhere else, please point me there. --HubrisBliss (talk) 00:37, 28 January 2017 (UTC)
