IC2 Navbox
Alright, so I did the first bit today, but I don't have the admin rights needed to accept the page. I can keep updating it all, but I don't think the changes will display until someone with admin rights accepts what I'm adding. -- Padfoote Staff • Talk • Contributions 22:54, 16 June 2014 (BST)

It doesn't matter if you can't sign it off, I'll bug Retep998 or something :P
 * uh, wut. Why doesn't everyone have perms to edit navboxes? /me looks into it and hopefully changes it --  Satanic Santa Admin • Editor  03:20, 17 June 2014 (BST)
 * I've removed protection on Template:Navbox IndustrialCraft 2 and Template:Navbox Steve's Carts. There are only a few other protected pages, and they all make sense. --  Satanic Santa Admin • Editor  03:26, 17 June 2014 (BST)

Are you adding things from IC2 Experimental? If so, you or someone (could be myself) needs to change the Mod Maintainers list, so that it doesn't say that we aren't documenting IC2 Exp. --  Satanic Santa Admin • Editor  19:06, 17 June 2014 (BST)

Yes, so really it does need changing. The old IC2 info is really kept on the IC2 Wiki, because no one has got round to updating it :D Chocohead (talk) Since it's now unprotected, I'll change it :)

Misuse of the 'Usage' Section
Hi Chocohead. Just to let you know, we don't add crafting grids in a Usage Section, don't we Paddy?... :(

At most we just link to the page the item or block is used in. Here is the page that I'm talking about: http://wiki.feed-the-beast.com/Raw_Carbon_Fibre

 * Yup, Real is right. Please read the article creation guideline for more information. --  Satanic Santa Admin • Editor  20:29, 18 June 2014 (BST)


 * Oops :S Chocohead (talk)


 * Actually you shouldn't even list recipes it is used in in the Usage section. Rather if the item's main purpose is to be crafted into something else, like raw carbon fibre into carbon mesh, you casually mention that in the description. Otherwise, you don't mention it at all.  R e t e p 9 9 8 Bunny Overlord•talk•contribs 00:35, 19 June 2014 (BST)


 * Is the usage section just for what the item can do on it's own then? Chocohead (talk)
 * The usage section is where you explain what it can do and how. --  Satanic Santa Admin • Editor  02:37, 20 June 2014 (BST)

Don't worry about it, we were all newbies at one point...well, I still kinda am. :( Just remember for future reference. Also, new siggy! :D --RealSketch •Talk •Contributions 16:32, 20 June 2014 (BST)

IC2 and whatnot
Hey, you're doing great with IC2, and its related addons. Don't worry, I'm not here to complain. Seeing as (from what I've observed) you're writing articles correctly and racing through documenting IC2, do you mind doing the EU page for me sometime in the future. Seeing as I mention it on a few pages and the links provide no page -and you seem to know IC2 very well. http://wiki.feed-the-beast.com/index.php?title=Energy_Units&action=edit&redlink=1

I'll approve it as soon as you do it, as well as most other pages you edit. :) --  Real Sketch  •Staff •Talk •Contributions 21:13, 24 June 2014 (BST)

Immibis' Advanced Machines page
Hi. Would you mind rewriting the Immibis Advanced Machines page a little bit? It stops making sense in the second sentence. Thanks :P --  SatanicSanta Talk • Contribs •Admin 21:00, 28 June 2014 (BST)


 * I'll have a look at it  Chocohead Nag • Additions  21:40, 28 June 2014 (BST)
 * The bit that says "They only go up to 75% of what the Induction Furnace goes up to" doesn't make any sense. Other than that, thanks. --  SatanicSanta Talk • Contribs •Admin 17:33, 29 June 2014 (BST)


 * Ahhh, that bit. I'll rewrite it some more  Chocohead Nag • Additions  17:44, 29 June 2014 (BST)
 * Alright, so here's the problem with it, since I haven't been explaining it well. What it "goes up to" isn't actually explained at all, so the rest of the sentence means nothing. --  SatanicSanta Talk • Contribs •Admin 18:25, 29 June 2014 (BST)


 * Hmmmmm. I'll try saying it another way.  Chocohead Nag • Additions  20:09, 29 June 2014 (BST)

Templates
When you create a template, you must add it to the template list. Failure to do so goes against the template guideline. This isn't a warning, just please do follow this in the future. I've already added it to the list. --  SatanicSanta Talk • Contribs •Admin 21:11, 28 June 2014 (BST)

Shapeless
I don't think we actually use the shapeless thing here. At least not that I can see. It's too vague in the picture, and doesn't actually show anything. IMO it's much better to just write "This recipe is shapeless." above the recipe. If someone were to make it so that |shapeless=true would write "Shapeless" on the top of the grid, that'd be awesome, but I doubt it'll happen. --  SatanicSanta Talk • Contribs •Admin 01:52, 30 June 2014 (BST)
 * We do use the shapeless parameter. --  Jin bo  bo  19:14, 4 July 2014 (BST)
 * No one uses it. It is so unclear what it means, and most people won't even notice it. --  SatanicSanta Talk • Contribs •Admin 01:19, 5 July 2014 (BST)

A barnstar for you!
How fancy, thanks :)  Chocohead Nag • Additions  19:44, 4 July 2014 (BST)


 * Lol, thanks for that edit just now. Feel free to correct any grammatical mistakes on any of my articles! :)
 * I'll approve them as soon as you do.

Explanation of something
"god knows what's wrong with the iron chest's icon though", the problem is that for some reason the Iron Chest is in the Vanilla tilesheet, rather than the Iron Chests tilesheet. So, when you set the mod param to IC, it looks for the IC tilesheet, rather than the Vanilla tilesheet, which uses V. See my sandbox for a visible explanation. --  SatanicSanta Talk • Contribs •Admin 01:32, 5 July 2014 (BST)
