Vote in the Weird Gloop elections!

Hi SacKings!

Because of your involvement with the wiki, you are eligible to vote on the candidates for the board of Weird Gloop, the company that hosts the RuneScape and Old School RuneScape wikis.

See meta:Weird Gloop elections for general information about this process (and how to vote – it'll take maybe 5 minutes), and meta:Weird Gloop elections/2019/Candidates for candidate presentations.

There are 4 candidates for OSRSW and 4 candidates for RSW, and 1 candidate for pt-RSW. If you'd like to influence who represents the voices of these communities inside the company, I strongly encourage you to vote! You are one of only 204 people that meet the requirements, and this is your opportunity to help shape the future of the wikis.

Thanks! ʞo oɔ 01:00, 23 December 2019 (UTC)

What have I done?

While I'll accept the edit removing that piece of trivia (since you have a good point), Mod Ed he has placed several dialogue of the prequel Star Wars films (player using Anakin's cheesy "I hate sand" line with Madame Caldarium, the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise with the Daeyalt rock golem, and Palpatine's "surprise to be sure" with Lieve McCracken). Hence when the trivia was first added, I left it alone. -- Spine^Talk 16:25, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

Fair point. In this case, however, I think the phrase is so common and well known in fiction that a direct tie to Star Wars seems a stretch. Something like "I hate sand" is blindingly obvious, this is much less so. But I'll accept a reversion if people REALLY think it's a Star Wars ref. SacKings (talk) 20:36, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

OSRS Wiki clan

Hi SacKings!

The clan system is being added to OSRS tomorrow, and I wanted to let you know that we're making the OSRS Wiki clan for editors and readers of the wiki. There aren't any requirements to join, but we have cosmetic ranks for people who edit. Due to your contributions to the wiki, you're eligible for the >extremely prestigious< Diamond rank.

If you're interested, check out RuneScape:Clan Chat for how to join.

If you're already in another clan, come say hi some time! We're planning to have weekly random fun events for everyone, too. ʞo oɔ 01:44, 26 May 2021 (UTC)

GE Taxed items

Hey, I'd advise you to hold off on adding the notice of the the items being taxed in the GE, as it's kinda of a major change and instead discuss the addition of it in other ways on our Discord server. Thanks, Shayani (talk) 16:52, 17 December 2021 (UTC)

K, I'll just add the category. SacKings (talk) 16:54, 17 December 2021 (UTC)

Historical NPC galleries

Hey, it's good to see somebody else who is interested in adding these to pages.

I have a full set of images for the NPC changes from late 2014 to the present. However I've held off on adding them for now as the galleries are not really fit for purpose. Their appearance is fine but the actual formatting is not great, and doesn't even work on pages that have more than one appearance, see Fire giant or Cow.

Ideally a new template needs to be created for these but I don't have the technical knowledge to do so. In the meantime I can try uploading the images to the Graphical updates page at least. Hlwys (talk) 20:31, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

~Interesting. I'd agree that a new template would be better but I'm not sure how to make one either. ATM I'm just focused on updating the Elf pages so the 2019 graphical overhaul is documented. SacKings (talk) 21:21, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

Forum:Pre-EoC images in articles

Hello! Just wanted to let you know that I have closed this thread. --Legaia 2 Pla ^{ᴛ · ʟ · ᴄ} 20:19, 9 February 2022 (UTC)

re:Respectfully...

I appreciate that you're willing to help with imagework, but the quality of your images appear to be distorted and scaled up. See the below image for example; the top is one of yours, and the bottom is the true size of the chatbox.

It may be the settings regarding the resolution of your display that causes the images to scale up, but those are not of an acceptable quality, so it results in the images needing to be retaken. -- Spine^Talk 22:17, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
