In need of a rating
While unnecessary, I would like for some of my articles to have ratings. The articles that I find ready for said endeavour are as follows: Sith/ Jedi (3.5e Class), Viveka Spectre (3.5e Prestige Class), and Uongo-mijusi (3.5e Race)(and some of its sub-pages). Then again, you may find some or all of those mentioned to be unworthy of your rating. In which case any advice would be most appreciated.

KoL Stuff
Don't know if you want to use it or not, but we have the Template:Copyright Disclaimer for articles based on copyright work like you're doing with the KoL imports. Just wanted to point it out. - Tarkisflux Talk 19:42, 21 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Ah, good, thanks. I'll swap that out when I make these into actual articles. --DanielDraco 20:18, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

Ratings Update
Following the recent wiki vote on ratings granularity and display, all old ratings can be updated to make use of "love / like / neutral / dislike / hate" instead of the old values. If you would like to update your ratings, you can find a list of them at Category:Legacy Rating DanielDraco. When you update a rating, be sure to delete the "|OldRating=True" part.

Note - I know we're still doing a vote to possibly change these to a different scale, but don't let that stop you from updating if you feel like it. If the vote comes down on a different scale I'm just going to bot change all of these to numbers. Updating now instead of later won't result in any additional work for your or anyone else. - Tarkisflux Talk 18:03, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

Take a Look at This
I noticed you updated your Book of Gears rating, and that rating is I think totally fair (yes my opinion on that has changed). However, given what you said in the rating I feel you may be interested in Tome Magic Items (3.5e Variant Rule). It attempts to take the magic item rules from Book of Gears and expand on them so they can, well, actually be used in a game and with the Economicon. And, most importantly I feel, provide DM guidelines. This was part of the "Tome Errata" and updated a bit by me personally for (I feel) better usability. Surgo 21:34, 16 July 2012 (UTC)

RoW
I haven't dismissed all of Races of War, just the armor. Some of the other stuff sounds interesting, but so far the armor is what I have encountered more often, and that is what I have been criticizing. It's a shame that the larger system has to be associated with something - as you said - "that few people actually care about". That said, I don't appreciate you joking about my mental states. I have just dipped my feet into Tome and I'll join the discussion in a civil fashion on that topic when I've read up on it.


 * I do apologize, it really wasn't meant to be targeted towards you per se. What I described was, from my experience, how most people deal with Tome. Everybody starts thinking that it's completely crazy and stupid. Then most people start to like it. Then they give up on it again. I never meant to imply anything about your mental state -- merely that you were new to Tome, and that it was understandably eyebrow-raising. --DanielDraco 03:03, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

Multiple Ratings
Can you merge your ratings on the Bangaa (with strikethroughs or something) or just remove the older one? It's a bit weird to have two ratings by the same user on a page, even if one of them isn't being counted. - Tarkisflux Talk 07:13, 15 August 2012 (UTC)


 * (Responding to history summary comment) - The point of the parameter is to keep articles from suffering under an inapplicable rating from a user who hasn't updated things after changes. I understand wanting to keep a talk page relatively free from deletion or editing so the full history is present, but uncounted ratings are not ideal and multiple ratings from the same user are extra clutter. These make it harder for casual users to get a sense of what's going on with the article, and I think we should try to avoid it where possible. If you think there's a good reason to do otherwise though, I'd like to hear it. - Tarkisflux Talk 15:56, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

NewVersion: Morality Test
It's tragic to have to block a Like rating, but it isn't nearly impossible to keep the target from dispelling the spell any more. --Foxwarrior (talk) 06:59, 18 December 2013 (UTC)


 * Alrighty, thanks for the heads up. I might take another look later today. --DanielDraco (talk) 20:38, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
