tilesheet stuff
Here's the icons needed for AE and BM. Most are 32x32 like you asked, however some refused to resize without getting horribly messed up, so those are still 64x64. Link. -- Padfoote (talk) 16:50, 19 May 2014 (BST)
 * Awesome. I'll get Blood Magic done right now, and work on AE later today or tomorrow. --  Satanic Santa Admin • Editor  17:00, 19 May 2014 (BST)

Cg question
So I'm about to get started with some of the alchemy in Blood Magic, which requires a crafting template that we currently don't have. Do you know how to create one, and if so, what do you need me to do to help with it? -- Padfoote (talk) 01:30, 22 May 2014 (BST)
 * Just tell me how it works and give me an image of the GUI. I also need to know the name of the machine. --  Satanic Santa Admin • Editor  03:50, 22 May 2014 (BST)

Template shifting upon editing a page.
Hi, as you know I'm not familiar with the wiki that much, though I'm trying to watch some tutorials. Anyway, whenever I edit a page the template on the right always centers itself in the middle of the page, causing the text to go around it. This looks quite ugly and I don't understand how this happens. When it is reviewed Jin or you seem to fix it somehow? Thanks, --RealSketch (talk) 21:06, 25 May 2014 (BST)RealSketch
 * Are you talking about the infobox? And can you provide a link to an example for me to take a look at? -- Padfoote (talk) 21:10, 25 May 2014 (BST)

Yeah, the infobox. Have a look at this: http://wiki.feed-the-beast.com/ExtrabiomesXL --RealSketch (talk) 21:27, 25 May 2014 (BST)RealSketch
 * It looks like it's on the right side to me. -- Padfoote (talk) 21:28, 25 May 2014 (BST)

Sorry to bother you, it was just a one time thing that happens upon editing, refreshing the page set it back to normal. As I said, I'm not used to Wikis or their markup. :( --RealSketch (talk) 21:31, 25 May 2014 (BST)RealSketch
 * Don't worry about it. Things can be a little buggy sometimes. -- Padfoote (talk) 21:32, 25 May 2014 (BST)


 * Which "preview" option are you using? There is the Preview button on the top of the source edit box, next to the Wikitext tab, which will not show template info (crafting tables appear empty, etc). There is also the "show preview" button next to the "save changes" button, which should show you all of the correct stuff. Also, don't apologize for asking questions, I'm fine with answering all of the ones you have :P --  Satanic Santa Admin • Editor  21:35, 25 May 2014 (BST)

On the current page I was editing I forgot to preview it, my mind just went straight to clicking save. After it was saved, the infobox would appear in the center on the page, but after a refresh of the page it would go back to normal. Also, another question. Both of you are obviously good at Wiki editing, may I ask where/how you learnt all this markup? --RealSketch (talk) 21:47, 25 May 2014 (BST)RealSketch
 * 1. Okay, so it seems like the problem isn't really a problem, just a weird wiki hiccup? 2. Read some of the stuff linked in my talk archive, namely the stuff prior to joining the team. I also read the source for a lot of reviewed pages. I'm not gonna lie, I have a folder in my Wiki folder titled "Page Structures", where I keep layouts of the different types of common pages. I tend to just open one, copy all of it, then paste it into the redlink-edit page :P If you wanted, I could dropbox this folder so others could have it. --  Satanic Santa Admin • Editor  21:51, 25 May 2014 (BST)


 * RealSketch, I learned everything from looking at the Railcraft pages, and from the 10 or so links Santa sent me before I started doing edits. Feel free to drop by IRC, PM one of us, or stop by our talk pages if you have questions. -- Padfoote (talk) 22:00, 25 May 2014 (BST)

I sure wouldn't mind looking at it, could be quite useful. :) --RealSketch (talk) 21:54, 25 May 2014 (BST)RealSketch

Thaumcraft 4 tilesheet
Here are all the icons for the Thaumcraft 4 item however there are some naming difficulties since some of the items use colons in their name and Windows won't allow it in the file name. They are all in 32x32 format and can be found here. -- Madmanmayson (talk) 8:05, 26 May 2014 (BST)
 * I'll get started on it ASAP :) --  Satanic Santa Admin • Editor  04:20, 27 May 2014 (BST)

Translating pages not visible in translation interface?
Hello, I was wondering if there is a best way to translate the "single-item-related" pages on the wiki (such as the http://wiki.feed-the-beast.com/Redstone_Engine page) than to simply edit a new nameOfEnglishPage\fr page, since there is no category for this in the translation interface (those pages are maybe not marked for translation)? Is it just a MediaWiki lacking feature, or is it intended? I now take care of this since my translations are filled with links that leads nowhere. Have a nice day! -- Luxim (talk) 19:07, 14 June 2014 (BST)
 * I don't understand what you are asking. Are you asking what you are to do when you are linking to other pages? --  Satanic Santa Admin • Editor  21:39, 14 June 2014 (BST)
 * Sorry, I think I've been unclear. For example, you use the translation interface to translate a page, let's name it A. When you translate a link of the page A, in the page A/fr, the MediaWiki system automatically turn links that point to a page X into links pointing to a page X/fr. That looks like a great feature, but sometime X/fr don't exists yet (X has not been translated yet), and the page X is not listed in the translation interface, so there is no way to translate it later, excepts by manually creating a page named X/fr and pasting the source code of X, then translating it. That's clearly not convenient, and I was thus wondering if there is something we could do to ease this process. -- Luxim (talk) 21:15, 15 June 2014 (BST)
