Not only does it change the header level, but it should also auto-gen the Contents box at the top for you.  ;)

Yeah I know it generates it, that's what I didn't want - it's just not necessary for that particular page, but the headings worked well to break up the list. I found it on google anyway though.

Cheers HatesYourFace.  ;D

I'll take care of the research page next.

To avoid the table of content, just add the notoc tag. Just forgot how to properly write it, sorry, am on my phone till this weekend.

Thanks for the tip, I'm debating getting rid of them or not. On the one hand they aren't hurting anything by being there, but on the other, most of the pages don't have enough info to really warrant them. Opinions?

Hi, I added a lengthy article on the Alpha 6 Health system: http://rimworldwiki.com/wiki/Health

Sorry about the boring format, I'm not really great at formatting in general.

Great job man! It looks like a million bucks! Don't sell yourself short, that was a lot of work, I linked it on the main page in the Characters section and I'm crediting you in the to do list. Basic info is a huge step up from no info, If we had a couple more guys like you we'd be basically done by now! For real, thanks man. (Holy friggin' eff' man! Was just looking at the recent changes page on the wiki, your Health article is +14,381 bytes, that's the single biggest change on the wiki by a huge margin!, the next biggest addition (for comparison) is 2,982 bytes.) You're my hero. <3

Research page is finished. I have it down that multiple research benches stack, though I've never really tested it  - if that's not true, let me know and I'll change it.

All good, I found out how to scale text for the titles anyway.  ;D

Great work as always man! You are truly the master of the table, and what's a wiki without good tables? Lol...no I'm serious...Tables are everything...so shiny, so informative, so appealing! They draw the player in! Now if only we could get the images and thumbnails back!

As far as research benches stacking I'm not sure either....never bothered building more than one. I will test this tomorrow assuming no one comes forward with 1st hand experience.

Use __NOTOC__ at the beginning of the page. Use ==Header== with a reasonable amount of equal signs depending on the header level (like HTML). You should always start from heading level 2 downward.

I might have been a little willy-nilly with my Headers as I was just copy/pasting, Feel free to tidy them up/make them look nicer! I won't be offended in the least lol.

Every weapons got their own page now. Just need some stuffs added like mode, class, info, a description ... Minor stuffs that anyone can do.
Need to put them under their correct class, too.

Awesome, I'll have to remember that next time.

Hey, there's two "animals" pages:

http://rimworldwiki.com/wiki/Animals/en
http://rimworldwiki.com/wiki/Animals <- This one is linked on the front page, but the one above has a nicer table is actually catagorized properly.

Fixed. :3

Also definitively fixed the weird languages pages previously linked on the mainpage and forced to be placed in /en.

Animals and Animals/en are still technically their own, separate pages.

Also, how do you add stuff to navboxs? I don't really have a clue, I just wanted to add the rest of the current animals to the Animals navbox.

Navboxes templates were edited by that previous manager who created a HUUUUUUGE mess in the mediawiki templates making it messy to edit ... I'll sneak around and find which page has to be edited.

EDIT :

Found it.
http://rimworldwiki.com/wiki/Template:Nav/animals

http://rimworldwiki.com/wiki/Template:Nav/en for any other. Just click the correct one you want to edit at the bottom.

A mess, I told you.

There's also a http://rimworldwiki.com/wiki/Template:Nav/animals/en
( despite there being a http://rimworldwiki.com/wiki/Template:Nav/animals already )

Actually I think there's an /en version of everything, this is confusing.


Either you need to get rid of all the non-en versions of everything or the other way around. Also, how does the <translate>Text here</translate> tag work? Some of the nav templates use it.
