Character zero weapon slots
i have a level 27 zero and only has 2 weapon slots. Ive read up on other blogs about this certain problem and people just say that you will get them once you start playing the game more. Im just wondering if maybe i have glitched the game and have to restart. If anyone could help me out with this it would be greatly appreciated.


 * The story missions that offer the SDUs are:
 * Plan B
 * Bright Lights, Flying City
 * If you've gone past those missions, then yeah, you have a problem, but but with such a minimal amount of information to go on I can't really offer any further advice. -- WarBlade (talk) 07:41, January 10, 2015 (UTC)

Lunar Launching Station
Hai Warblade.

I noticed that the link i made for one of the vault symbols in the Lunar Launch Station was deleted. I would like to understand why and what i can do better so this doesn't happen.

 * I don't recall removing any links. -- WarBlade (talk) 05:58, January 12, 2015 (UTC)

Then there is a problem. I left only one screenshot unlicensed, the first one i posted. After i learned how to and that it should be done, i did that. I made sure there was a license attached and they were categorized. I am not sure how the last 3 or 4 screenshots got published without these.

Pages that have yet to be created
Heyo, basically brand-new to wiki editing, but since there's a lot still missing in these pages for Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel I figured I'd try to pitch in, since this is my go-to source for most stuff related to the game. I recently added a couple bare-bones articles for challenges in the Veins of Helios since none had a page with even a rudimentary description. I tried to copy the style as I've seen throughout the wiki, and have been working on getting locations/strategy specifics to add to the articles.

I noticed that the articles were removed (to your credit, promptly) and wondered why? I would have thought that having something of a stub instead of no description at all would be useful, but if I have to have a full guide to all of the locations before I can post anything about what must be done to complete the challenge... well, I'll see when I can eventually get around to getting all of the locations recorded and uploaded I suppose. If they were removed for some other reason, please let me know.

Fae Daemon (talk) 04:11, January 13, 2015 (UTC)


 * They were a bit below borderline. Two sentences apiece conveying information that is obtainable at a glance within the game isn't really helpful, the reason being that there is no information on the page that a player wouldn't know already. The point of an article is to have something that is both searchable and informative. Meanwhile a red link on another article pointing to a yet-to-be-made article is helpful to editors in providing an indication of a hole to fix. Addressing the red link only by adding a sentence or two removes that indication, leaving people to assume there is a valid article in place when the reality is that it isn't. -- WarBlade (talk) 06:05, January 13, 2015 (UTC)

Achievement Editing
Hi I wanted to start the achievement-list for Bl:TPS, but I can not finish it at one session, can I upload pictures for it without using them instantly? Can I start the table without finishing it completly? E.g. I play on Pc and do not know how much Points I get for some achievements.

Postea (talk) 21:29, January 14, 2015 (UTC)


 * In the case of images it would be best to upload on an as-needed basis. As for the table, yes, a partial table is fine. -- WarBlade (talk) 05:09, January 15, 2015 (UTC)


 * So is there any method of making a table without sourcecode. Just directly in the browser? I looked at different sharps, but did not found one.
 * Postea (talk) 14:30, January 15, 2015 (UTC)


 * That's an awkward question to answer. VisualEditor is currently in beta release, and has some shortcomings in what it can and can't do. The classic rich text editor did have table support, although the editor in general was horrendously buggy. Source is my preferred editing environment personally - it doesn't cause all the problems inherent with the other two. -- WarBlade (talk) 19:27, January 15, 2015 (UTC)

Skill Articles
Hello WarBlade. My name is, for courteous purposes and simplicitys sake, Marcelo. Today I had noticed that many pages for the skills of, "Fragtrap" have recieved no information for people to read. So, in an attempt to help people, I created a page with as much information that was needed for people to fully understand the skill, and weigh in if it is worth getting it or not. As well as attaching class mod pages to get the full use of the skill. The pages then ended being around a paragraph in length excluding the class mod area. I had used the community posting guildlines while typing them, and posted them when I saw they seemed to have fit. I did forget about the first and second person guildline for which I apologize. After about 3-4 skills posted, I then noticed you had edited them. I assumed there was a slight error with my post, which I was O.K with. However, when I went to check the post, it had turned out that you had changed them to an extreamly uninformative sentance on to what the skill was, but not what it did. I hold no grudge againced you, but I would like a reason behind the change, and if we may find a middle ground on to what to change them to.

Sincerally,

Megamarcelo1 (talk) 20:15, January 19, 2015 (UTC)Marcelo


 * Articles on the aim to be informative, and one thing we've always done to be informative at a glance is to standardise articles with common infobox templates. Each article of a particular type should ideally resemble other articles of the same type. The template you need for new skill articles is Template:Infobox skill, and I recommend reviewing a number of Borderlands 2 skill articles to get an idea of how they are generally structured. -- 20:55, January 19, 2015 (UTC)

Asked a question for future reference.
(My mistake, I was unaware adding a summary to my question would create two articles. I don't know how to delete this one, sorry) CRobinsonNZ (talk) 19:23, January 24, 2015 (UTC) CRobinsonNZ

Reference for future editing
Greetings Warblade, I just wanted to get a little clarification to help me continue my early days editing the Borderlands wiki and by extention, others. As you are probably aware, a few days ago I expanded upon the Kraggon (species) page, which was soon undone by you. The way I had set the page up was (or so I had thought) based on the current page for Skag - namely a link to individual pages, with a brief description on the main species page. Was the expanding undone due to me including links to the many non-existant Kraggon pages, or something else? I had thought the brief two-sentence description I could concoct would be better than creating another dozen tiny stub articles.

Thanks for your time, this info will help me greatly as I learn the ways of the wiki.

Sincerely, CRobinsonNZ (talk) 19:22, January 24, 2015 (UTC)CRobinsonNZ


 * We've moved away from trying to compile multitudes of enemies onto group articles. It was something that started back when Borderlands had no DLCs, and despite my advice that it was going to create a categorisation mess further on down the track, that paradigm had enough support to stick... until things got exactly as awkward as I'd said they would. The Borderlands-era Skag article is a remnant of those early blunders. By contrast the Crimson Lance article came to provide a yardstick of how a group article worked out well. -- WarBlade (talk) 19:44, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Hyperion soldier (borderlands 2) page needs attention
Hello I was wondering if you could work on the page Hyperion soldier (borderlands 2) it has been an article stub for a long time in need of attention. These enemies are seen throughout a majority of Hyperion areas and are seen as a common enemy. this page needs attention and I would be very grateful if you were to look into it maybe add a picture or two.


 * With roughly a thousand article stubs, among the several thousand other problems to sort out, I simply cannot go around fleshing out stub articles on request. Feel free to research and update any subjects that you think you can contribute to. Thanks. -- WarBlade (talk) 09:33, January 26, 2015 (UTC)

Need help understanding how to upload photos
Hello I would like to contribute to the add on content page by adding pictures of the dlc's titles to the pre sequel dlcs as there are none yet. the rest of them have the titles from the dlcs. I tried to upload one from Google images and it said "permission denied" I'm a bit new to this and I would like a bit of help to understand why.


 * Why not start with a bit of text formatting first? It's one thing to upload images, but it's equally important to know how to position them. -- WarBlade (talk) 19:20, January 29, 2015 (UTC)

Hello
Hello WarBlade. Thanks for the greeting. Actually not new to the Wiki. I had to take a hiatus due to some personal health issues. Cant for the life of me get my old account to work, but that's probably because I haven't been on here for a long time. My user name used to be lynne1984, I was a greeter as well. So I just made a new profile. Im a bit rusty. Aphrodite84 (talk) 03:28, February 6, 2015 (UTC)

"Previous" in the Mission Infobox
Hello,

I noticed you made some slight edits to The Don (mission), a page I created. You completed the infobox by adding The Beginning of the End under "Previous".

For the future, how am I to understand "Previous"? I thought it'd mean that you need to complete the quest instead of just being on it. Because I know for a fact that this mission is available as soon as you enter Vorago Solitude, and you can complete it while still being on "The Beginning...", so I'd rather say Eye to Eye would be the better candidate.

Apologies if I made any mistakes in this talk, I'm still new to this wikia stuff. Regards and thanks for a valuable resource!

DukeOfEarlLux (talk) 22:16, March 10, 2015 (UTC)


 * I put that in because it is the last story mission needed to unlock access to The Don, which as you correctly point out is available upon reaching Vorago Solitude. In such cases, mission completion is not necessary - it's just for area access. There are quite a few entries like that around the wiki. If there is a direct precursor optional mission then that covers the previous mission adequately, and there's no need to mention the story mission, otherwise the story mission to access the zone is fine. -- WarBlade (talk) 22:25, March 10, 2015 (UTC)

 * I can give it a try, and see how it works. Aside from that, does it fit in terms of content? Never edited a wiki before, and in these talk sections, haven't exactly done the best job. :/ --Teatime42 (talk) 00:28, March 19, 2015 (UTC)

Quick question
Hi Warblade, just a quick question, as I don't have the rights to do this myself.

Shuggurath's and Rathyd's are new enemies in Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, correct? As such, shouldn't they appear within the 'Enemies' section for Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel on the wiki's home page? Sorry if this is a pointless question, it's just something I've noticed and keep thinking about when I come onto the wiki.

CRobinsonNZ (talk) 21:40, March 19, 2015 (UTC)


 * Possibly. But the whole front page is due for a radical redesign. The kind that would wipe the multitude of individual links and replace them with links to categories. -- WarBlade (talk) 22:23, March 19, 2015 (UTC)

Undelete request: File:2015-02-14 00001.jpg
Hi there. File:2015-02-14 00001.jpg which you deleted was a variant of Emperor that I added per the rules on Emperor/Variant Chart.

 * You are correct. I must have missed that. Nevertheless, I think you could have added the categories just as easy as hitting delete. Anyway, could you please undelete the file so I can add the categories? Regards  So Why  17:33, March 31, 2015 (UTC)

I have posted on the talk page as to why Zer0 is agender, with sources

Me again about Zer0
Hi, it's me again. I have now realized that my previous edit was grammaticly incorrect because I failed to conjugate the verbs along with the change of pronoun and I understand the deletion of that edit, but I noticed that someone has correctly edited the page with correct pronouns and agreeing verb conjugations, but I you still deleted that edit. Is there a reason for that? Because Zer0's pronouns are canonicly 'they,' as stated by multiple devs, including Anthony Burch before leaving Gearbox Ehaydon16 (talk) 01:22, May 4, 2015 (UTC)


 * I made it clear in my update summary. The disputed additions need to be taken to the talk page where there is a discussion in progress. -- WarBlade (talk) 01:34, May 4, 2015 (UTC)


 * Yes, and we have disputed it. There are sources clearly showing that Zer0's pronouns are they/them. There is literaly nothing left to dispute. Ehaydon16 (talk) 01:37, May 4, 2015 (UTC)

Images
I noticed that you deleted the two images of the Shield of Ages shield that were on the wiki and added the Shield of Ages page to the category of pages missing item image. Was this intentional and was there something wrong with the images? The one that was on the article itself had been on the wiki for a while and the screencap I took of the level 70 variant was, well, just a screenshot, so I'm wondering if I should re-upload one or both and attach them to the article so that it's no-longer listed in the category of articles needing item images. There are already two screenshots available for the item, so I don't want it to be on a list where it might get any unneeded priority for something it already had.

 * Please ensure that you comply with this wiki's image policy. You will have seen the basic requirements summarised in the three bullet points on the upload page right under the the word "Attention!" -- WarBlade (talk) 20:26, May 16, 2015 (UTC)

Infoboxes
Hey WarBlade!

It's a big change, for sure. From our angle, we're trying to merge two goals: we want to make tools for Wikians as simple and powerful as possible, and we want to make sure that we're well-ahead of the curve for our shared mobile future. We're taking mobile quite seriously, because by every measure that's where the growth is.

That's also why we're carving out time and energy internally to help with the transition. I don't want to get too far ahead of myself, but this is only our first step, too.

This a really high-quality wikia. That's why we want to start taking our first steps here - we want to showcase the best that Wikia has to offer.

Yo, Warblade!

Thanks for volunteering Penny Dreadful! Is it OK if I give my team the go-ahead to do some infobox work on it?

As for the infoboxes here on Borderlands: yep, it's a big change, no doubt about it. In terms of positioning ourselves for the future, though, it's a leap we have to make. Here is an example of what the team's been doing thus far. We're sticking as closely as possible to the original intent and design of the infoboxes.

We'd love your permission, and I'll answer any and all questions for you before we touch a single thing. I will also volunteer to make a GIF of myself dancing around with a Nerf gun as an incentive.

Let me know! Ducksoup (talk) 21:57, May 26, 2015 (UTC)


 * I've hit a snag with another contributor who has a history of edit warring, and this relates to infobox fields. Let me just see if I can get that one ironed out, and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. -- WarBlade (talk) 05:24, May 27, 2015 (UTC)


 * Fair enough, WarBlade - you know where to find me. Is there anything I can help with? I am still a Normal Staff by day! Ducksoup (talk) 21:01, May 27, 2015 (UTC)


 * Bump for this, Mr. Blade. Did you have a chance to think it over? Like I said before, I'm happy to answer questions, including and especially questions about how this would be totally good for you and for Borderlands wikia. Ducksoup (talk) 19:44, June 12, 2015 (UTC)


 * I'm keen to move ahead on Penny Dreadful. I've updated the infoboxes there now to a fairly consistent design (instead of the three or more designs we had).


 * And as for the, I'm okay with moving forward, if a bit more cautiously. The infoboxes here are inconsistent. There is a general style that they all follow...
 * Most are standard
 * Template:Infobox weapon and Template:Infobox weapon2 are more complex with additional template calls.
 * Template:Infobox character has been deprecated, and need not be updated.
 * Template:Character is an entirely different beast. That one is a full page template rather than an infobox.
 * -- WarBlade (talk) 20:57, June 12, 2015 (UTC)
 * Hey there! That's awesome. You have my promise, from one Wikian to another, that we won't screw anything up. I'll ping my (extremely clever) coworker User:Shareif about this, and you two can chat about it. Sound fair? Ducksoup (talk) 00:13, June 16, 2015 (UTC)


 * Sure. :) -- WarBlade (talk) 01:42, June 16, 2015 (UTC)

Images
Hey I have an image for the Athena Blindside skin File:Blindside.JPG but I don't know how to add it without messing everything up, since you added the other skins should I just send you the image and you can make the edit?


 * A couple of things:
 * Firstly, please sign your edits on user talk pages.
 * Regarding images, when uploading images the upload screen has a few bullet points of things to do for housekeeping reasons. Images should have a license template selected - usually "screenshot" for most of the images here, and they should also have a category, eg. Category:Skins as an example for the one you uploaded. Without these things, your upload is likely to get deleted. If these things, and adding images, are too difficult you might also consider assisting this wiki with more rudimentary text edits until you get an understanding of image protocol and positioning. Thanks for asking. :) -- WarBlade (talk) 05:24, May 27, 2015 (UTC)


 * I took the liberty of properly categorizing, licensing, and adding the selected picture to Athena's skin page. Thanks for the work, Legomyego1010. -- DukeOfEarlLux (talk) 12:15, May 27, 2015 (UTC)

Hi, I left a message on CRobinsonNZ's talk page but probably should have put it on yours:

Challenges
"The Challenge page (http://borderlands.wikia.com/wiki/Challenge) is edit protected, probably a smart thing with that much work involved in making it, but I have some missing details for it. For BL:TPS the Grinder challenges 'This Time for Sure' the last level is missing, the levels go 10,25,150,300,750. Also for 'Greater than the Sum of its Parts' the levels go 20,50,75,125,200. Sorry I don't yet have the missing details for 'The Daily Grind' as finishing the two former challenges has been such a pain I have to have a break from the grinder for a spell." --ShaddowAU (talk) 05:56, June 21, 2015 (UTC)


 * The edit protection is just a temporary soft lock. If you find a few other things around the wiki to help supply data to, you'll find that the Challenge article will unlock for you soon enough. -- WarBlade (talk) 06:27, June 21, 2015 (UTC)

Editing Butt Stallion
I was going to edit Butt Stallion, stating it is possible to farm her using a second account and exiting without saving. It won't let me add things because it is protected. Is this worth adding, or is it common enough knowledge that it isn't worth including?Kgk4569 (talk) 17:57, July 17, 2015 (UTC)


 * It's a pretty minor thing to note, to be honest. -- WarBlade (talk) 21:10, July 19, 2015 (UTC)

Page information/New Editor
Hi War Blade, I'm relatively new around here. I just wanted you to know that what I add regarding the weapons has been backed up with testing and weapon effect charts. I also have no problem with any changes you make, and I can see what you mean with the info on The Bee on the Sand Hawk page. The only reason I added that it was game breaking, is bacause you can kill Terra in about 2 minutes alone with a Incendiary Sand Hawk and The Bee, if your using Maya. (there is a similar note on the Fibber page)

Anyway, moving on from that, has this wiki thought about adding charts like these? These are basically the most effective charts I've seen on the internet and I feel it is much easier to read than what we currently have listed on the Borderlands 2 Weapons page. Unless of course we don't want everything listed here, and if it would be considered plagiarism. Otherwise, we could add the info to the Weapons page. Just food for thought.

Have a good one, Supersonic Boy (talk) 16:15, July 25, 2015 (UTC)


 * /u/Zikel has said that he would like to see these on Wikia. Citation. He's still around, though not active in the Borderlands community of late.


 * Personally, I want to see BL2 pages similar to our BL1 parts mechanics pages, but obviously I haven't done anything. Zikel once told me that he had the parts images broken out for that kind of use.   Dämmerung 08:22, July 26, 2015 (UTC)


 * Well, tabulated information is not really my thing. Sure I can help people format data if they need assistance, but my focus with these kinds of games has been from a more skill-centric and tactics position than with weapon and damage mechanics. If you can work such technical matters together with other contributors here, and to the benefit of this wiki, then to me that sounds like a good thing.


 * Regarding the "game breaking" nature of the Bee, it looks like you got the gist of what I was saying in the update comment in that the Bee is basically a powerful amplifier on any weapon, and therefore isn't really notable as such on a particular weapon. We've had quite a few notes like that spring up about the Bee, and it's more of a standard trait with that item than something particularly notable on other weapon articles. The other thing is the concept of "game breaking," which being a euphemism is the kind of thing I try to steer people away from writing here. We try to maintain an authoritative information source here, and that information is read by people with English as a second language, so I try to aim for content that is both formal in writing style, and with a low level of euphemism - because making ourselves understood is more important than lacing text with cultural expressions that might be lost in translation. ;) --WarBlade (talk) 10:21, July 26, 2015 (UTC)

Message
I want to help the wikia because the lack of pages for bl:tps is repulsive, but i don't know how to do easy templating, mind helping? also i was wondering; are we allowed to do usage and strategy on skillz?


 * Hi, I get a bit stretched between wikis, so apologies for the delayed reply. Help is certainly welcome, especially in the lack of Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel content. Regarding "templating", is there something missing, or something specific, that you need assistance with? And yes, usage and strategy is perfectly valid information to supply. Note that we ask editors to phrase text in the third person when writing article content (that tends to slip in things like strategies). -- WarBlade (talk) 10:21, July 26, 2015 (UTC)


 * I need to add class mods etc. and strategy for existing ones (i know how to do that, wondering if it was allowed because i have not seen such on anything but guns) Aleccat1 (talk) 03:41, August 4, 2015 (UTC)Aleccat1


 * Oh, a "Usage & Description" section? Sounds fine to me. -- WarBlade (talk) 04:31, August 4, 2015 (UTC)


 * Thanks, and one last question: templating game too hard, how do i do the normal templating for gear for TPS. Aleccat1 (talk) 20:33, August 4, 2015 (UTC)


 * What template are we missing here? Or what template you trying to use fails to achieve what you want? -- WarBlade (talk) 22:04, August 4, 2015 (UTC)


 * i just don't know how to template correctly (photo in center specifically because then it like glitches)  Aleccat1 (talk) 04:10, August 5, 2015 (UTC)


 * Ah, your terminology threw me off there. I think you're saying you're having trouble filling in the template fields? Images can be a little tricky. Our older templates (most of them really) need "File" or "Image" in the field, so for most of the templates an image named ColdGun.png could be added as File:ColdGun.png, for example. The images don't need any of the  brackets and pipes normally used for image calls, are all centred by default.


 * I can't be much more help than that without know which editing interface you're using. Personally, I edit in source view. You might edit using VisualEditor. So if you can tell me which editing mode you're using I could offer more specific advice. -- WarBlade (talk) 11:05, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Example of what I would like to do
Hey WarBlade, Its SSB again, I tought I would start working on a little experiment, but don't want to keep working on this until I get more opinions on it, including yours. Using the charts I showed you, I converted them to wiki format and the end result looks like kinda like this: http://borderlands.wikia.com/wiki/User:Supersonic_Boy/Sandbox

So...Do you like the design?...Are you even interested in the idea? (I know your said your not big on mechanics earlier) I would like to hear your constructive criticism as well as your peers, if I can. Obviously, I would re-adjust the pictures and update them, make all the logos the same size to make it look nice, and add the missing logos (Bandit logo was too long, so its not present and e-tech will have the logo on the chart), but this is what I can make without changing anything on the wiki. (The word "Spiker" and "Dart" are also links just so you know and clicking the brand (picture name) will take you to the brand page ) Also, these are filled with the chart data, which appears to be contrary to the information listed on the wiki currently. If you hate it...well I understand that too and will cease their production, but I think they're pretty neat.

Please advise,

Portable Infoboxes
We’re reaching out to a few of our top communities, hoping to get you on board with the migration to the new infobox markup. And we have tools to help!

Why we’re doing this

Simply put: Most current infobox structure translates very poorly to mobile experiences, and indeed any device that doesn’t use desktop-style displays. On desktops and laptops, they often look amazing. The problem is that Wikia’s traffic is trending mobile.

There is an important graph from our forum post about infoboxes a couple weeks back, and I want to share it here as well:



Mobile is the future. Not just for Wikia, but for the web as a whole. Take a look at the recent trends and future growth predictions for mobile traffic - it's staggering.

We partnered with the Wikia community to create this new markup to make sure that your hard work can be displayed on mobile devices (as well as any future technologies) easily and without any new coding conventions. It’ll take some effort up front, to be sure, but we’re here to help, and the work you put in now will pay for itself tenfold in the future.

Tools we’ve designed to ease the process

We’ve enabled two new features on your community. One is a tool for migrating the “old” infobox code to the new markup. It identifies templates on your wikia that look like infobox templates and places a box on the right rail of the template page. When you click the “Generate draft markup” button in this box, it opens a new tab containing a draft of your infobox using the new markup.

The second is a new feature on Special:Insights that will highlight which infoboxes on your wikia have not been migrated to the new infobox markup. It’s fairly intuitive - you can click on the infobox title link itself to see the old markup, or simply click the “Convert!” button on the right, which performs the same action as the “Generate draft markup” button.

This is our help page for the new markup. I’ll help get things rolling by converting a template or two as an example if you’d like me to, as well as watching this forum post for any questions.

 * Uhh, yeah. Andrew beat you here by several months. Dianafa ported a couple of them, leaving a minor mess for me to fix on one, and the end results were still not that great so we put the breaks on. The fields are still exhibiting bugged break points on titles. Downloadable content is still rendering as:
 * '''Downloadabl
 * e content
 * ...on my desktop (Chrome and Firefox tested). So I'm currently of the opinion that the new infoboxes need kinks worked out before I'd be comfortable rolling them out further on the . Here's Andrew's blog - feel free to follow and chime in. -- WarBlade (talk) 06:55, August 1, 2015 (UTC)

Oups, sorry but I modified / replaced one of the image you uploaded for Spycho and I forgot to mention the reason why -> I just did some chromatic corrections for removing the blue cast + made the image better to view. No harm.

Please, excuse me if I did something wrong but the image was really requiring some corrections and improvement. BTW good shot from this bastard that I had to kill 87 times for farming the shield.
