CongratulationsEdit
Congratulations, you now have a new set of shiny buttons -- which you've obviously already been making use of! --NepheleTalk 15:12, 29 October 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks Nephele! I'll do my best not to let you and the rest of the admin team down :) And yes, I am enjoying the new buttons immensely :P --SerCenKing Talk 15:14, 29 October 2011 (UTC)
- It's obviously a good idea to make yourself familiar with the new buttons, but might I suggest User:Example as a target, as s?he is more used to it! rpeh •T•C•E• 15:40, 29 October 2011 (UTC)
- Yes, and you autoblocked my IP, so I couldn't even edit my talk page! :P I had to dust off my IRC. Haha elliot (talk) 15:50, 29 October 2011 (UTC)
- Haha, I will try to spare innocent users the cold chill of being blocked next time ;) --SerCenKing Talk 22:30, 29 October 2011 (UTC)

New NPC page?Edit
Hey SerC! I’m afraid we need to make a new NPC page, namely for the SE32VitharnSoldier01 – the one standing closest to the southern gate, who has a whole slew of unique dialogue, including: "Hloval dances a little too close to Sheogorath, if you know what I mean. Those born with stunted magicka shouldn't become priests and healers." I could do most of it, but maybe you could set up the Summary in a Sandbox? Any suggestions for a name? --Krusty 23:27, 29 October 2011 (UTC)
- Hmmm, this is going to be tricky. The problem is that there are 7 other soldiers with exactly the same name but without any special dialogue. Do we want two separate pages, one for the generic NPCs and one for the unique one? If so, what should the titles be? --SerCenKing Talk 21:29, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
- Okay, as far as I can see we have the following unnamed (friendly) citizens in Vitharn:
- 6x Vitharn Ghost Archer
- 3x Vitharn Ghost Citizen
- 3x Vitharn Ghost Reveler
- 11x Vitharn Ghost Soldier
- 1x Vitharn Reveler
- 1x Vitharn Soldier
- + a whole bunch of unfriendly fanatics. In time, we need to make the pages (we have a pages with the test subjects found in Xaselm, so this is "what we do”). In any case, we can always start with the quest-related guy I mentioned, just to have a page for him. Then we can decide if we want to build more soldiers on top, or if we want a Shivering:Vitharn Ghost Solder and/or a Shivering:Vitharn Ghost Soldiers page - or something entirely different. If you can just provide me with his BaseID I can take care of the rest. This entire thing should be added to the SIRP page though - fanatics included! ;) --Krusty 00:30, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
- Yup, that sounds right. To make it all clearer I've made a list in my sandbox. I'll test whether the Test Subject or the Bandit layout works best for each NPC. The only issue I have with a page called Shivering:Vitharn Ghost Soldiers is that it doesn't reflect the in-game name and is thus a bit misleading. I guess the best way to solve this is to list soldiers like in the Test Subject page, so we have scope to point out his uniqueness. Also, there are two NPCs that are not found in-game and with slightly different names to the other NPCs in their category. Should we get separate pages for them or just stick them into the main page? In any case, I'll get to work on the soldiers. --SerCenKing Talk 10:27, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
- Hello again! I think a good inspiration would be the Blind Moth Priest page, simply for an example of more than “one” header. It will take an unusual amount of redirects and the usual amount of linkable entries, but all in all, I think it is possible. I haven’t had time to look at any of them specifically, but hopefully their schedules are more or less randomly determined – and similar for each “type” of Vitharn citizen. As for the name, good question - I’ll have to think about that. Holler if there’s anything I can do – as you can see, I’m on a Daedric Worshipper-trip, so I’ll be around all day. --Krusty 11:16, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
- Yup, that's exactly how I've started it in my sandbox. I'll leave you to your daedric craziness ;) --SerCenKing Talk 11:21, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

Vitharn updateEdit
Okay, with the exception of the usual mount of typo’s, Vitharn is now drafted here and it looks decent. I sent a message to Kivan at the same time, so hopefully we can get to the bottom of this in the near future. As of now, I see no point in launching the page as most of the maps needs cleanup anyway – I just don’t know how much cleanup they need, until we figure out exactly what is wrong with the place. For now, its the waiting game. --Krusty 13:51, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
- Looking good! I'll await Kivan's reply and then get on with checking it and eventually tweaking the maps. --SerCenKing Talk 21:29, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
