I've been adding some templates around as per your suggestion, but there's no template for event items that are no longer dropped. Which template should I use then? Simply the retired one? I've thought of doing that, but it might be a good idea to highlight it's a retired EVENT item. | I've been adding some templates around as per your suggestion, but there's no template for event items that are no longer dropped.

: I don't think a template for retired event items is necessary. I think it should be generally assumed that if the item is obtained from an event, it cannot be re-obtained unless otherwise noted. I would make sure that when you find retired event items, you emphasize when it was given out (ie: Available from the 2012 event). <span style="font-size:14px; text-decoration:overline;font-variant:small-caps;">[[User:Kitten Tale|Kitten]]</span> (<span style="text-decoration:overline;font-variant:small-caps; font-size:12px;">[[User talk:Kitten Tale|talk]]</span> 17:53, 26 July 2012 (CDT) | |||
I'm sure we could do that from now onwards, but there's a number of event items that I have no idea of when they came out. | |||

: If you want to do some research, I would recommend checking other major Maple sites for more information. Back when I did work for Guild Wars Wiki, I ended up working on a Skill History project, and my main tool was researching what skills were before certain updates. | |||
: If you decide to research, I would recommend finding out when posts about the item started showing up (if referencing a forum), and then searching Nexon's MapleStory News Updates. Sometimes you can even find quality images to use on the wiki by looking through their archives. <span style="font-size:14px; text-decoration:overline;font-variant:small-caps;">[[User:Kitten Tale|Kitten]]</span> (<span style="text-decoration:overline;font-variant:small-caps; font-size:12px;">[[User talk:Kitten Tale|talk]]</span> 18:03, 26 July 2012 (CDT) | |||
.... that's too much work and too time-consuming, there's quite a number of other things to update, too. xD | |||

==Drop Table infobox== | |||
It has come to my attention that the Drop Table infobox doesn't have a column for scrolls. I do think it's necessary to add one, as many bosses drop a great variety of them. Also, the ores column is quite redundant now, as monsters don't drop them anymore. | |||
--[[User:Arch3ops|Arch3ops]] ([[User talk:Arch3ops|talk]]) 15:06, 27 July 2012 (CDT) | |||
: Monsters can still drop ore, so it's still a valid area. | |||
: As for scrolls, they're broken down by type. Equipment scrolls have their own section, and non-equipment scrolls have another. <span style="font-size:14px; text-decoration:overline;font-variant:small-caps;">[[User:Kitten Tale|Kitten]]</span> (<span style="text-decoration:overline;font-variant:small-caps; font-size:12px;">[[User talk:Kitten Tale|talk]]</span> 16:25, 27 July 2012 (CDT) | |||
Ah, that explains it. o: But well, since very few of them do, it makes sense to add it as an etc. drop. | |||

: I think a fair number of them still do. We can't really know unless all of our monsters have been added with drop tables. <span style="font-size:14px; text-decoration:overline;font-variant:small-caps;">[[User:Kitten Tale|Kitten]]</span> (<span style="text-decoration:overline;font-variant:small-caps; font-size:12px;">[[User talk:Kitten Tale|talk]]</span> 19:05, 27 July 2012 (CDT) | |||
I'll work on that. (: But still, I'm yet to kill a monster on GMS that drops ores post-Big Bang. | |||

I think the possible addition of a recipe section might work for the drop list.... Look how messy this looks: [[Zakum]] --[[User:Arch3ops|Arch3ops]] ([[User talk:Arch3ops|talk]]) 00:15, 4 August 2012 (CDT) | |||
==Broken Links== | |||
I've been updating some monster Drop Lists and they're filled with broken links. I'm not entirely sure how to create the hidden categories, but how should I move the image files so those at least aren't broken? --[[User:Arch3ops|Arch3ops]] ([[User talk:Arch3ops|talk]]) 11:31, 3 August 2012 (CDT) | |||
: Don't worry, this is an easy thing to do. | |||
: Moving files was my preferred way of doing things, but that's how I ended up breaking an image, and now Toa needs to go delete it at some point. | |||
: To move a file: | |||
: * View the file | |||
: * Choose the move button (like you see on every page) | |||
: * Choose the appropriate name | |||
: * The file will be moved, and a redirect will be placed on the original name. | |||
: * The problem with this, is files cannot be moved to new extensions (.png files cannot be moved to .gif). | |||
<BR> | |||
: My preferred way is creating redirects. This allows one image to be used on multiple pages, where many items may share the same icon. | |||
: To make redirects: | |||
: * Do not click on the broken file links. This will send you straight to the upload screen. | |||
: * Instead, copy the whole file name (File:Name.extension) and place it right after "title=" in the URL. | |||
: * Now you will have an uncreated page that gives you an option to edit or upload. | |||
: * Edit the page and add the following line "<nowiki>#REDIRECT [[File:Name.extension]]</nowiki>" | |||
: * Redirecs allow you to redirect files to other extensions (you can redirect a .png to a .gif) | |||

: Thanks! I'm currently on a short break from school, so I won't have a lot to contribute. Plus, I haven't even looked at MapleStory since I left. <span style="font-size:14px; text-decoration:overline;font-variant:small-caps;">[[User:Kitten Tale|Kitten]]</span> (<span style="text-decoration:overline;font-variant:small-caps; font-size:12px;">[[User talk:Kitten Tale|talk]]</span> 19:45, 11 October 2012 (CDT) | |||

Welcome back! I've been away for a while, too, working on my first update in a while right now. :) I hate to bother, but whenever you have time, could you increase the limits of scrolls that can be inputted in the Drop Table infobox? And maybe a section just for Recipes by their categories instead of just a huge list (i.e.[[Cygnus (Boss)]]) for better aesthetics and greater ease of access.
