Wiki Space / Dragonache Pics

Do you have any issues with me putting up a page on the different wildcard features of the Dragonache? I don't want to do it on the Dragonache page itself, but figured I'd link from it. I've built a fairly extensive list of features on my user page and thought it would be cool to provide pictures showing the different features. I have a quote from BIGsheep indicating that the features are random - it seems like the color is the only thing you can actually control.

So what exactly have you been able to learn? Did you just want to illustrate all of the various possible Dragonache feature configurations? --Jimmcq 23:29, 22 February 2007 (EST)

Yeah, I thought we might just list and have pictures of the different features. I didn't know if you've got a quota on the server where you might not want a bunch of pictures. From what I can tell, most of the stuff with the mine is random. There may be some advantages to having candaries or a lantern, but I'm consistantly getting eggs in 2-6 game days without them now.

Unfortunately bandwidth is expensive. When adding pictures to the Dragonache page I tried to choose pictures that showed different features (manes, ridges, tails, etc.). Maybe you could come up with better images to replace the existing ones that show these differences? --Jimmcq 14:37, 23 February 2007 (EST)

Repetitive Content

Just curious with what you think of repetitive content similar to the pond page. I recently edited it to list the species that require water. To me it seems useful to have that information on that page and helps give the page some value, but I realize its just repeating what's aready listed on those species pages. I was also thinking of listing species varients on the variants page, but again I'm curious if this is something this wiki thinks is worth doing and should be done? ~ Kaya 13:28, 6 March 2007 (EST)

We try to avoid duplicating content because it can make things harder to maintain when there are multiple copies of the same thing floating around... but on the other hand sometimes it makes sense... It's kind of a judgement call. I think the Pond page may be OK because it is the only place that we gather all of the aquatic requirements. As for the variants page, I think that would be overkill... we already have every species cross referenced with everything that can create a variant and vice versa... plus that would be a LOT of info on one page. --Jimmcq 13:51, 6 March 2007 (EST)

That make sense, thanks! ~ Kaya 13:57, 6 March 2007 (EST)

Wiki Contest

Thanks for the Xbox Live message. I have been away from PinataIsland for a few days, and never did see your email message either. I have sent you my snail-mail address. Wow! I NEVER win anything! Thanks! Contests are so much fun -- you should show it on the site's front page --celestial nav 14:33, 12 March 2007 (EDT)

HOW DO U MAKE THEM HAPPY?

I wanted to get in touch with you so here's a good place to ask you this question, When are you going to change the title screen page for Candiosity and Cocoadile Tears on the episode guide.
