Math problems

Hi VariousMetals, yep you are right that the math-tag doesn't work properly too. For example {{Thrust}} also doesn't work. Did you get the same error when you tried it in your edit? — xZise [talk] 14:24, 14 May 2015 (UTC)

I have next to no experience with wiki markup in general, so I spent a fair amount of time wondering why the only thing I wrote that would actually render was ${\frac {1}{2}}$. The error message was just "PNG conversion failed", so I assume it's related to all the other file problems and it'll work again once they get fixed. VariousMetals (talk) 18:43, 14 May 2015 (UTC)

Here's a thought: since the migration issue might not be getting fixed anytime soon, we should create "Category:File problems", and list all the pages that need to be updated once the file problems get solved.VariousMetals (talk) 18:57, 14 May 2015 (UTC)

Huh that math-thingy worked. I'm also not sure why we need a category. Hopefully when Squad fixes the issues with this server images should work like before so that we don't need to solve any file problems. — xZise [talk] 10:49, 15 May 2015 (UTC)

Moved stats table

I have moved the stats tables as you suggested and by that also your note removed regarding the structural fuselage, but not because I don't agree but just because I didn't know where to leave that note and just want to finish something first before I handle that issue. So if you want you can go ahead and move it to another stats table or suggest something in the talk page. Just want to inform you here so that this part doesn't get lost. — xZise [talk] 14:06, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

Move help

Hi, if possible it would be nice when you suggest a move to help prepare it. For example if you want to move A to B and B doesn't exist yet, create a redirect to A and update the pages which use A to now use B. So that when I move it I only have to move it and not move any references.

Of course this should only happen on obvious suggestions and when there should be no redirect from A to B (e.g. because it's an internal template). — xZise [talk] 14:18, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for moving the page. I had left the links as is because I wasn't really sure whether replacing the original links would make it easier to move the page, and I was worried that it might make it more difficult if I somehow did something incorrectly and it had to be reverted. I'll add the links and redirect in the future. VariousMetals (talk) 14:57, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

Especially if there are many links it's a bit tedious and unfortunately the MediaWiki doesn't automatically replace references. — xZise [talk] 16:09, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

Stupid question

Sorry, if you find the next a bit annoying, and not coherent, but I am drunk at this moment (love is suck: promising heaven, but opens the gates of hell), and I am not a pleasant person anyway. But before think I am JERK, worth to know, you are one of the few editor, whom I admit, worth to cooperate (Yes there are some, like kspjaptrans, mowaw...), and thinks about many cases about the wiki like I do.

According to the latest editons: don't you feel urge to put the cabins into the "monopropellant tanks" template as they holds some monopropellant?

The parts table system worked by classification of the main function. The tails are not practical in role of nose cones, and the services bay almost useless in cargo bay role (separate table). No one put a great wing for using a fuel tank! (In this case the landing cabins are monopropellant tank, and the small landing gear is an illuminator. The "non-modular" wings can be built together with the set of the modular wings, but not useful as winglets - as they are used to stabilize the rockets. The resource detectors separation from the detectors is acceptable, as they mainly used for another purposes.

Long story short: some kind of reconsideration is needed about this theme...
