Improvements and mana ressources are done.

So the section "Ressources and improvements" is complete

 

[xanaqui42]

The main promotions page has been updated for the current version, as well as some capitalization and spelling corrections.

I also updated the links in the promotions that were written up to the new format.

 

[Zuffox]

Added the boxes "incomplete" and "wrongformat" to the Mithril Golem entry just to annoy people into fixing it.

 

[xanaqui42]

The main techologies page has been updated, largely for the link format.

 

[xanaqui42]

I should note that a non-playable civilization (Barbarian State) is presently absent.

Added to the main civilizations page.

Oui, c'est avec un double "s" en francais, mais pas en anglais!

(Yes, it's with a double "s" in French, but not in English.)

 

[Keldan]

Damn, I wrote it with "ss" everywhere

Heh- I'd prefer a resource with information about the language, but an expert will be second-best.

Note that I've modified both the Template:FfH Civ and FfH Unit Info templates.

With the latter template, I like the new functionality, but I'm having a minor format issue. Here is an examlpe of a typical optional line item:

{{if: {{{Promotion_3|}}} | {{!}}- style="vertical-align:top;"
{{!}} ''' '''
{{!}} [[FfH {{{Promotion_3}}} (Promotion){{!}} {{{Promotion_3}}}]] }}

The problem is that if Promotion_3 is not set, I get the equivalent of a <br>, instead of the equivalent of nothing (I'd prefer the later). This means that some units presently have a lot of empty vertical space in their stat boxes.

This is really tricky. For some reason, that I do not understand (and I had to check templates on wikipedia that used it to discover it), you need to put this <!-- -> between ifs to not get the new line. For example:

{{if: {{{Promotion_2|}}} | {{!}}- style="vertical-align:top;" 
{{!}} ''' ''' 
{{!}} [[FfH {{{Promotion_2}}} (Promotion){{!}} {{{Promotion_2}}}]] }}[U][B]<!--
-->[/B][/U]{{if: {{{Promotion_3|}}} | {{!}}- style="vertical-align:top;" 
 {{!}} ''' ''' 
 {{!}} [[FfH {{{Promotion_3}}} (Promotion){{!}} {{{Promotion_3}}}]] }}

And, about sources to study, wel, for the basic I used the wikimedia.com template help. And for the most advanced things, I searched there and checked templates on wikipedia.

I tried this; it does not appear to work on that template. It works great when the attribute is absent, but when it's present:

{{if: {{{Promotion_1|}}} | {{!}}- style="vertical-align:top;"
{{!}} '''Promotion''' 
{{!}} [[FfH {{{Promotion_1}}} (Promotion){{!}} {{{Promotion_1}}}]] }}<!--
-->{{if: {{{Promotion_2|}}} | {{!}}- style="vertical-align:top;"
{{!}} ''' ''' 
{{!}} [[FfH {{{Promotion_2}}} (Promotion){{!}} {{{Promotion_2}}}]] }}

I get:

Promotion 	  Channelling I |- style="vertical-align:top;" 	  	  Channelling II

In the case of the Wizard, instead of:

Promotion 	  Channelling I
	Channelling II

Which is what I want.

I'm guessing that the problem is that I should replace the line-based style information in Template:FfH Unit Info with section-based formatting like in Editing Template:FfH Civ, but I'm not familiar enough with the language to be even vaguely confident in that large of a change.

In my most recent attempt to get formatting information, I've noted that "style" is actually from HTML, not a part of the wiki language. That at least gives me somewhere to look.

 

[xanaqui42]

I updated the link format on the main Civics page, and updated the civics that are written up to the current version.

 

[xanaqui42]

I went through the Resources and improvements main page, and its sub-pages, and updated the links. I did not make any corrections (such a spelling) other than fixing obviously broken links.

 

[xanaqui42]

One of the problems with links is that the format for Spell links is inconsistant (I know there are at least 3 different formats). If/when someone re-works the spell section so that the spells can be linked to, we should go through and update the spell links.

 

[xanaqui42]

I re-wrote this template, based off of the Civilization Tempalte (since my attempts to modify it failed). It still could use minor formatting changes, but it has both the needed functionality and the lack of large empty vertical spaces.

 

[YohanLeafheart]

The last bunch of edits on http://www.civ4wiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Template:FfH_Civ are my attempt to make them change de color of the infobox depending on the aligment of the civilization.

EDIT: It is working!!! FInally, now just need to choose the correct colors. Kael, do we have a color-aligment relation already in place?

 

[YohanLeafheart]

As part of my work to make some neat changes to the FfH_Civ Template, I created 3 new ones:

• Ffh Neutral (Color)
• Ffh Good (Color)
• Ffh Evil (Color)

To use any of those on your template, just put {{}} around it. These templates will make it easier to change those colors and use them to customize other templates based on the aligment of the civ it belongs too. The folllowing code, for example, uses the aligment variable to choose what to color the background of a cell with:

style="background-color:{{ifeq:{{{aligment}}}|Evil|{{FfH Evil (Color)}}|{{ifeq:{{{aligment}}}|Good|{{FfH Good (Color)}}|{{FfH Neutral (Color)}}}}}}"

 

[Keldan]

I updated cilizations, to include unavaible units and correct some little errors due to version change and bad internal links.
I will do the evil civ later (the real life call me )

About the template civ, there is one thing I should like you do : allow more building tag (building_1, building_2, etc) because now, there is only six and it's a bit short for unavaible buildings of some civs (Doviello, Grigori). 10 will be enough I think.

About the internal link, I agree with Xanaqui : let's write the page with the good name, and we'll correct the links when we know what is the good syntax.
For example, I wrote the ressources but I don't know what will be the syntax for the buildings. So I don't take care of it, and I will correct ressources when buildings pages will be wrote.

 

[xanaqui42]

I updated the main building page with the following format:
FfH Academy (Building)

Largely so that the links can be consistant in the future. However, if somethng should change, it's only a modest amount of work in Units to change them all.

I should note that I also applied this change to the Civilization template, so it seems like this has been applied appropriately, at least in the tables.

Frankly, I updated all the link types save for Spells, largely because I'm not certain what type of linking is ideal for them - by Sphere, by Promotion, by individual Spell, or something else.

 

[eerr]

Added the boxes "incomplete" and "wrongformat" to the Mithril Golem entry just to annoy people into fixing it.

i just had to provide a basic guide to the best of the best : O
it's been that way for at least a month now?

There you go, now you can use building_1 through building_10

 

[mervvyn]

I have a few days off, I'm going to have a crack at something for the spells section, please add comments on the talk page if you have ideas or know more wiki code than I do to make it look cleaner.

Update: I've changed the main page, it looks quite decent. I've done the spheres up to and including entropy, just based on the old version of the spells page and anything that's leapt out at me from the current changelog.
