== Double-quotes in name messing with float/font ==
 
 
I saw this problem with {{item|icon=|"Gigantique" Bag}}. Apparently using <code>&amp;quot;</code> instead of "-mark works. --[[Image:gengar orange 22x22.png]]&nbsp;[[User:Fandyllic|<span style="border-bottom:1px dotted; cursor:help;" title="Admin">Fandyllic</span>]] <small>([[User talk:Fandyllic|talk]] &middot; [[Special:Contributions/Fandyllic|contr]])</small> 9:48 AM PST 23 Jun 2008
 
 
== Cooldown format ==
 
There should be a standard format for the Cooldown= entry, perhaps a template like cost. I've seen Cooldown= nn min and Cooldown= nn minutes. I think both work because they are transposed as text, there is no interpretation, but standardizing would be better.

== Non PNG File Extensions ==
 
Seems in past discussions this was brought up, but still appears to be unresolved. For example, if you take an icon from wowhead, you'll have to convert it from JPG to PNG, yet the file uploader will take many non-PNG formats. It seems like such a popular template should be congruent with the upload feature. [[User:Howbizr|Howbizr]] ([[User talk:Howbizr|talk]]) 02:51, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
 
:We intentionally use .png for all of our in-game icons because it makes the rest of our templates/page-creation bots that use wow icons a lot easier to deal with.

I had some ideas. Just wanted to share, if you want to adopt into the stylesheet / template. Here's an example of a regular achievement, as well as an achievement made up of other achievements. -[[User:Howbizr|Howbizr]] ([[User talk:Howbizr|talk]]) 20:04, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
 
:This should be made into a new template if created at all. This template is strictly for items. --{{User:Pcj/sig}} 20:08, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
 
 
== Best current practice for usage ==
 
 
I notice that there's some inconsistency between common usage, the example at the top of this page, and the boilerplate. On this page, we have:
 
<nowiki>{{{{{tpl|tooltip}}}
 
|mode={{{mode|}}}
 
|arg={{{arg|}}}</nowiki>
 
[[Help:Item articles/Preload]] has:
 
<nowiki><onlyinclude>{{tooltip
 
|mode={{{mode|}}}
 
|arg={{{arg|}}}
 
...
 
}}</onlyinclude></nowiki>
 
The boilerplate definitely needs some tweaking so that it works more reasonably with subst (currently the onlyinclude wrapper and standard setup for mode and arg are lost in the subst). The item pages have a mixture of styles, a few of them are even missing onlyinclude/noinclude, causing breakage when used with, e.g. {{t|item}}. Some use noinclude around the rest of the page, some wrap the tooltip with onlyinclude. I reckon onlyinclude is the better style, as it's less prone to someone less experienced incorrectly putting something outside the noinclude block. But what about <code><nowiki>{{tooltip</nowiki></code> vs. <code><nowiki>{{{{{tpl|tooltip}}}</nowiki></code>. I can see the utility of the latter, allowing an alternate template to be used when transcluding the page. Is that meant to be the standard, and should we be changing the existing articles to that standard?
 
 
I've got all the necessary framework and regexps available with [[User:MurphBot|MurphBot]], from standardising and fixing the {{t|achievementbox}} usage, and it is very easy to adapt that to that to this template (although I do realise the scale of usage is significantly larger). Would it be desirable to have a bot standardise the usage to best practice (ensuring there's an onlyinclude wrapper, removing old noinclude wrappers, and ensuring that the required minimum parameters are present in standard form)? If so, does the following represent our desired standard usage?
 
<nowiki><onlyinclude>{{{{{tpl|tooltip}}}
 
|mode={{{mode|}}}
 
|arg={{{arg|}}}
 
...
 
}}</onlyinclude></nowiki>
 
--{{User:WoWWiki-Murph/Sig}} 11:46, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
 
 
:What I've understood so far is that <code><nowiki>{{{{{tpl|tooltip}}}</nowiki></code> is for [[User:Foxbot|Foxbot]] to easily change the tooltips. The <code><nowiki><noinclude></noinclude></nowiki></code> has mostly been used in tooltips from older items. I don't believe that newer items has been using noinclude. <code><nowiki><onlyinclude></onlyinclude></nowiki></code> is what should be used.
 
:On using bots to eliminate noinclude in favor of onlyinclude: I think that's very hard to do since there's articles that aren't items but use noinclude anyway. I'd let someone who knows more about bot editing to comment on that, thoug. {{User:Gourra/Sig2}} 12:07, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
 
 
::Thanks. As far as restricting the elimination of noinclude to item pages, that's easy enough, as long as it is sufficient to restrict it to pages which actually include usage of {{t|tooltip}} (and not pages which transclude pages which have the template). The python regexps which should achieve that are:
 
::<pre>'(?msi)(?<={{{{{tpl\|tooltip}}})(.*?)</?noinclude>' -> '\1'</pre>
 
::<pre>'(?msi)</?noinclude>(?=.*{{{{{tpl\|tooltip}}})' -> ''</pre>
 
::Are there any examples of pages which are not items, but do have {{t|tooltip}} in them?
 
::And not wanting to produce a controversial tangent here (if it's to be discussed, somewhere else would be more appropriate), but this is something that would be made more certain (ensuring that you're only processing items) if the items were in their own namespace or pseudo-namespace.
 
::--{{User:WoWWiki-Murph/Sig}} 12:31, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
 
 
: Just to clear things up: <code><nowiki>{{{{{tpl|tooltip}}}</nowiki></code> was inserted by [[User:Foxbot|Foxbot]], but the actual use is as Murph described: allow a different template to receive all of the tooltip arguments on transclusion. The syntax is desired behavior, and I've now updated the preload page to reflect this. -- [[User:Starlightblunder|foxlit]] ([[User talk:Starlightblunder|talk]]) 10:34, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
 
 
== [[Feral attack power]] ==
 
 
Inspired by [[WoWWiki_talk:Village_pump/Archive30#Feral_Attack_Power|something on the Village Pump]] I noticed way too late, and ultimately Wowhead's new way of displaying Feral attack power [http://www.wowhead.com/?item=40388], I used my basic wiki skills to come up with a [http://www.wowwiki.com/index.php?title=User%3ANathanyel%2Ftooltip&diff=1783565&oldid=1782395 suggestion] {{loot|common|User:Nathanyel/Journey's Test|example}} how to implement that on our tooltip template here (for Staves/Polearms/2H-Maces over 54.8 DPS only)
 
 
I'd just [[WW:BOLD|be bold]], but I'm unsure about just copying Wowhead's 'design'. (As a European, I expect just about anything from the US legal system {{=P}}) Plus, others might not like it/have better ideas.
 
 
The previous FAP weapons need to be updated anyway, new DPS, Strength to AP, I'd do that as soon as I hear a 'yes' here. Hopefully [http://www.google.com/search?as_q=site%3Awowwiki.com+%22attack+power%22+%22Cat%2C+Bear%2C+Dire+Bear%2C+and+Moonkin%22 Google] helps me find all of them. ~ [[User:Nathanyel|Nathanyel]] ([[User talk:Nathanyel|talk]]) 14:16, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
 
 
: Gourra made a [[WoWWiki_talk:Village_pump#WotLK_Updating|point on the Village Pump]] that WoWWiki tooltips should look like ingame tooltips, and not like Wowhead ones. So another option would be to simply have FAP displayed as ingame, though the green might confuse non-druids. Then again, who can't read "in Cat, Bear, Dire Bear, and Moonkin forms only"? Anyway, I'd hope for at least a "go for it" before I get going {{;)}} ~ [[User:Nathanyel|Nathanyel]] ([[User talk:Nathanyel|talk]]) 17:57, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
 
 
:: If the goal is to "make wowwiki tooltips look like in-game tooltips", then you're going to need to know the race and class of the viewer, and what weapons he can wield. Those things are taken into account when the in-game engine renders the tooltip ("Mace" will be in red or white, depending on whether the character can wield a mace). But you don't make any attempt to do that in wowwiki, because the viewer is <b>not</b> in-game, and those decisions don't apply. Thus applying that rule to the Feral Attack Power rating isn't sensible either. I like how wowhead uses an orange color to make it stand out; it's clear that it's something that is not done in-game. I see no problem copying their style, as long as you don't copy their code. The old "Look & Feel" argument was settled long ago in courts, when Apple lost their lawsuit against Microsoft. There is nothing illegal about copying "use orange text to indicate that feral attack power is different and only applies to druids". Please do copy wowhead. [[User:Markkawika|Markkawika]] ([[User talk:Markkawika|talk]]) 20:35, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
 
 
::: Now that's good feedback, never thought of the "mace in red" thing - I guess what WoWWiki (or Wowhead) should/is trying to display is the item from an omniscient point of view, level 80 character of all classes, with all weapon and trade skills maxed out. Anyway, will get to it after lunch. ~ [[User:Nathanyel|Nathanyel]] ([[User talk:Nathanyel|talk]]) 10:11, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
 
 
:::: Oh wait, I can't edit {{t|tooltip}} myself... {{awesome}} Would someone with the proper rights do that please? Here's the [http://www.wowwiki.com/index.php?title=User:Nathanyel/tooltip&diff=0&oldid=1782395 diff] with what needs to be added. Gonna go ahead and update the former feral weapons already. ~ [[User:Nathanyel|Nathanyel]] ([[User talk:Nathanyel|talk]]) 12:50, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
 
 
::::: This edit has an error, and causes "Expression error: Unexpected &gt; operator" to appear in every page that uses this tooltip. Would some kind soul with the proper authority fix this please? --[[User:Hops Splurt|Hops Splurt]] ([[User talk:Hops Splurt|talk]]) 15:34, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
 
 
:::::: Which article are you talking about? I don't see any errors so far with the tooltip. --{{User:Gourra/Sig2}} 15:41, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
 
:::::: Should be fixed now. --{{User:Pcj/sig}} 16:06, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
 
 
::::: And done, at least with those weapons Google came up with. Searching for others soon. Would you believe how many distractions can come up during the course of an afternoon? Noticed some &plusmn;1 AP disparities on some green Outland random-stat staves plus {{loot|common|Brunnhildar Harpoon (Two-Hand)|Brunnhildar Harpoon}}, but 1 AP is virtually nothing in Outland content and upwards. ~ [[User:Nathanyel|Nathanyel]] ([[User talk:Nathanyel|talk]]) 18:58, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
 
 
There are also one-handed and main hand weapons that has feral attack power - while they are obviously not suitable for Druids, shouldn't they show the feral attack power too? This is what I thought about changing in the specific part of the template. The changes starts and ends with <code><nowiki>'''</nowiki></code>.
 
 
<code><nowiki>{{#ifexpr:{{{dps|0}}}>54.8|{{#switch:{{{slot|}}}|Two-Hand|{{#'''switch''':{{{type|}}}|Staff|Mace|Polearm=<li><span class="cc-druid" title="Only applies for druids">({{#expr:floor(({{{dps|}}}-54.8)*14)}} [[Feral attack power|<span class="cc-druid" title="Only applies for druids">feral attack power</span>]])</span>|}}'''|One-Hand|Main Hand={{#switch:{{{type|}}}|Dagger|Mace|Fist Weapon=<li><span class="cc-druid" title="Only applies for druids">({{#expr:floor(({{{dps|}}}-54.8)*14)}} [[Feral attack power|<span class="cc-druid" title="Only applies for druids">feral attack power</span>]])</span>|}}'''|}}}}</nowiki></code>
 
 
--{{User:Gourra/Sig2}} 15:31, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
 
 
: If you're thinking about the Vanilla 1H maces like [http://www.wowhead.com/?item=22988 End of Dreams], they don't have Feral AP anymore, as this is computed solely by weapon DPS now. For newer 1H weapons with >54.8 DPS, the Feral AP gained from them doesn't matter, as no Feral uses 1Hs anymore – and the FAP display should be (mostly) for weapons that a Feral of appropriate level would use – I'd even supress FAP for staves with spellpower (Atiesh would need a special fix, though) ~ [[User:Nathanyel|Nathanyel]] ([[User talk:Nathanyel|talk]]) 18:30, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
 
 
::Well of course [[The End of Dreams]] doesn't have FAP, it has lower than 54.8 DPS. While 1H weapons aren't suitable for feral druids, we should show the FAP for those anyway for consistency.
 
::I've just noticed that the FAP value on items is 1 higher than the value on Wowhead, should this be corrected? I'm not reallyy fluent in the math coding, so it would be appreciated if someone else fixed this. --{{User:Gourra/Sig2}} 10:57, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
 
 
::: Yeah I noticed the &plusmn;1 discrepancies, too, as mentioned above, could be that the actual formula is even more complicated than <code>floor((dps-54.8)*14)</code>, but hey, it's just 1 AP max *shrug* If someone finds a better formula, just change the one we use.
 
::: I don't know about showing FAP on 1Hs, I'd vote against it, but if more people want it, why not. ~ [[User:Nathanyel|Nathanyel]] ([[User talk:Nathanyel|talk]]) 13:06, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
 
 
::::The thing though is that it should be <code><nowiki>{{#expr:((dps-54.8)*14) round 0}}</nowiki></code>, which rounds it up or down (506.4 -> 506, 506.6 -> 507 etc) and with no decimals. I'll let some other admin change it though and create the HUEG job queue. --{{User:Gourra/Sig2}} 15:01, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
 
 
== No level requirement ==
 
I've run across items with no level requirement having level=1 in the WoWWiki tooltip. This is indirectly correct, but is really not the same thing as no level requirement - the tooltip display is different. Am I correct that if the item does not have an explicit level 1 requirement in the in-game tooltip, these should be removed, per note above, "make wowwiki tooltips look like in-game tooltips"? For this particular bit of data, The Armory should be a reliable source. [[User:Madkaugh|Madkaugh]] ([[User talk:Madkaugh|talk]]) 01:17, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
 
:Yes, that's correct. --{{User:Pcj/sig}} 02:21, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
 
 
== False positives for Pages which may need their tooltips updated ==
 
 
This template has a mechanism for detecting out of date tooltips, mostly from the change from +healing and +damage to spellpower. The out of date items get put into [[:Category:Pages which may need their tooltip template updated]]. With transclusion, this category currently contains over 3,200 articles. Of the first 50 I checked, less than half were erroneous, the others were included because they included the word "healing" (mostly from alchemy trinkets). Would it be possible to increase the sensitivity of the detection to minimize the false positives?
 
 
Items that had +healing and +damage said:
 
"Increases healing done by up to X and damage done by up to X for all magical spells and effects."
 
Items that increased healing and damage by the same amount had:
 
"Increases damage and healing done by magical spells and effects by up to X."
 
 
Perhaps expanding "healing" to "healing done" or a check for "for all magical spells and effects." (not sure if that is still used) would eliminate many of the false positives. This might make a project to go through the templates and update them somewhat less daunting. -- <span style="font-size: 0.85em; padding: .2em .3em; border-top: 1px #504c50 solid; border-bottom: 1px #504c50 solid; background-color: #2C2C2C">'''[[User:Wige|<span style="cursor:help;color:#3399ff">Wige</span>]]''' <small>([[User talk:Wige|<span style="color:#ffff00" title="Talk Page">Talk</span>]] - [[Special:Contributions/Wige|<span style="color:#ffff00" title="Contributions List">Contribs</span>]])</small></span> 18:51, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

I admire that someone put the effort into making the value of "slot" and "type" into links, but I think that the audience would be better served if they were to link to static pages (i.e. [[Equipment Slot]] and either [[Armor]] or [[Weapon]]). Currently, [[Plate]] is a redirect to [[Plate Armor]], [[Mail]] discusses mailboxes. I imagine that leather and cloth redirect to the armor types. Specifically, my current complaint is about the Mail link.

They don't fit the current template very well - stuff is missing, or doesn't look right. There are [[Sources_of_Wrath_alchemy_recipes#Transmute_discoveries|several]] transmute pages that already need written, plus now we're getting more discoverable transmutes.

I was wondering if making {{t|Tooltip}} auto categorize what can be categorized thru it would be a good idea? Over at [[Template:Tooltip/Dev]] I have made a copy of {{t|Tooltip}} and added some <code><nowiki>{{#if:{{parameter}}</nowiki></code> then categorize statements, of the parameters that I know to be used as categories. Take a look, play with and see if it looks doable or not?<br/><br/>I did seperate the Classes= into class1, class2, class3, class4 class5 parameters, so that it will categorize the items into each class that can use the item and made the <code><nowiki>|classes=</nowiki></code> go into a non-existant [[:Category:Deprecated classes= paramater]] to find the pages that used Classes= and can be changed over to class1, class2, class3, etc. -- {{:User:Jrooksjr/SigX}} 01:41, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

The problem with auto-categorization is that the Slot gets messed up: we have categories such as [[:Category:World of Warcraft epic guns]] and [[:Category:World of Warcraft epic trinkets]]. Then there's also quality that clashes with other categories, such as [[:Category:Epic gems]] and [[:Category:World of Warcraft rare quest starting items]].
 
 
Then there's the issue about the classes= parameter doesn't mean that it's a <class> set item; for example look at [[Codex of Defense]].

:::I must agree with Gourra and Coobra. Having a template add categories limits what you can do with the template. Some templates (eg Questbox) do autocategorization; we later on had to retrofit with a parameter to allow blocking that behavior. I would be more in favor of a template that specifically added categories. But by the time you get through with that, you've done 90% of the work you would have done anyway, what with customizing (for instance epic guns and not epic main hand swords). --[[User:Eirik Ratcatcher|Eirik Ratcatcher]] ([[User talk:Eirik Ratcatcher|talk]]) 20:03, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

The DEV template now will only categorize the most common Categories:<br/>
 
:#If <code><nowiki>|sockets=</nowiki></code> is set, it will place the item into the [[:Category:World of Warcraft socketed items]]
 
:#It will auto categorize the item by the items quality: [[:Category:World of Warcraft poor items]], [[:Category:World of Warcraft common items]], [[:Category:World of Warcraft uncommon items]], [[:Category:World of Warcraft rare items]], [[:Category:World of Warcraft epic items]], [[:Category:World of Warcraft legendary items]], [[:Category:World of Warcraft artifact items]] and [[:Category:World of Warcraft heirloom items]]
 
:#If <code><nowiki>|qitem=</nowiki></code> is set, it will auto categorize based on the items quality: [[:Category:World of Warcraft epic quest items]], [[:Category:World of Warcraft rare quest items]], [[:Category:World of Warcraft uncommon quest items]] and [[:Category:World of Warcraft common quest items]] or [[:Category:quest items]] if it does not fit those specific categories. -- {{:User:Jrooksjr/SigX}} 18:19, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

As a side note I also added the the <code><nowiki>|races=Alliance</nowiki></code> parameter to make it show all 5 alliance races and <code><nowiki>|races=Horde</nowiki></code> parameter to make it show all 5 horde races as a shortcut instead of typing out <code>Draenei, Dwarf, Gnome, Human, Night elf</code> and it does NOT interfere with pre-existing items that have |races= already set - so could you add that (it would come in handy for future mounts and such that are Horde/Alliance only items), and its associated documentation to that section. -- {{:User:Jrooksjr/SigX}} 20:53, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

I'm still not really sure if it's worth it to auto-categorize every item that used the template.
 
# If the [[/Dev]] categorize everything by the item quality, how will it check for the previous categories? (Epic guns, Epic trinkets, Common quest items etc) An item tagged as rare and quest item will get both "... rare items" and "... rare quest items" categories, of which the first one is redundant.
 
# {{t|Removedfromgame}} requires all the applicable categories to be removed, how would that be handled?
 
# While you like to make it apply for the major categories, I wouldn't implement it until ''all'' categories would be handled by this.
 
# I understand that this would be alot of work for you, but I can't help to wonder if it's worth it - I sure wouldn't pick up a project this big. --{{User:Gourra/Sig2}} 21:05, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
 
 
:#I can add switch as to the epic gun , trinket items and not place them into the epic items. As to the redundant Rare item and rare quest item - I can put 1 more if - on the rare item (checking if it is quest) (yes then do nothing / no then categorize by quality) so it would be rare item or rare quest item ( not both )
 
:#As to the removed from game - I can look at the achievementbox or others and see how the <nowiki>|doc=</nowiki> to remove categories - I am guessing another If statement to make it not show category if doc= is set.
 
:#I can not do .
 
:#With your requirements then your right it cant be done (not by me) and then we are back to what I said above - I will only put the minimal of all categoies (for I refuse to try to remember your Categorical mess I have looked at in the Item categories as they are **ps you have DUPLICATION there already **) and you all can go behind and fill in whatever specific categories you think they should be in (I was just trying to make all existing items have teh bare minimal of similar categories - I have seen some items with 6-10 categories (some I never knew existed) then I seen other items with just 3 of the 6-10 and another item have a different 3 categories of those 6-10 (and the 2 items were the same type just a different tiers) so many inconsistancies but you are Admins and know you best.

===Picking it back up===
 
So I'm taking a look at it now, taking a different approach from morph.
 
 
To get some categories like "<quality> quest rewards" and the gem categories to work we're going to need to add some new parameters.
 
 
;qreward: just a quest reward flag. No display
 
;key: just a 'this is a key' flag. No display
 
;gem: needs to be one of "Red", "Yellow", "Blue", "Green", "Orange", "Purple", "Prismatic", "Meta". Tooltips can be generated using |gem= instead of the flavor line.
 
 
I'll come back and edit this when I work through the rest of the categories. --<span style="border-bottom: 1px dotted;cursor:help;" title="WoWWiki bureaucrat">[[User:Kaydeethree|k]]_[[User_talk:Kaydeethree|d]]<sup>[[Special:Contributions/Kaydeethree|3]]</sup></span> 01:08, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

With what Blizzard is doing to all (if not 90%) of the gear, this is probably the best time to make the tooltips autocategorize the items. This way the corrections can be made at the same time we clean them up. This will also allow for the renaming of the item categories if we so wish. {{User:Coobra/Sig4}} 19:46, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

I'll take the opportunity to point out, adding parameters to tooltip only adds marginally to reliability on categorization, in that it shifts the responsibility on the part of the editor from "add/edit categories" to "add/edit parameters". Sure, it makes it greatly easier to do simple category renaming (by changing the category used by this template). But that is not really a common occurrence, is it? More often, categories are new, or subdivided or combined, which would require editing the individual pages anyway.

:People using the templates fill in more of the Parameters ( problably because it is easier to see all of the paramters used on 1 page ) then add categories ( problably because all of the POSSIBLE categories are not known for the article ) so if you cateogries as much as possible baised on the parameters then the items will be more fully and consistantly categorized - untill recently I put all Cloth items in [[:Category:World of Warcraft cloth items]] because I did not know there was [[:Category:World of Warcraft cloth head items]], [[:Category:World of Warcraft cloth legs items]], [[:Category:World of Warcraft cloth hands items]], etc... thus a discrepency in how items were categorized not to mention the Plate, Leather, and various Weapons type items that do not fit any pattern in how they are categoriezed ( that I can see yet ). This is the best closest way to being consistant across the board (you can always add MANUAL categories if you feel the auto categories do not add enough categories) but at least the BASIC categories will be hit for all items with template auto-categorizing! -- {{:User:Jrooksjr/SigX}} 21:18, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
