Which vehicle keys look messed up? I had a look at the list, and it looks ok. I do have the full set of vehicle BP's so I can check them, but give me a clue to why you think they are messed up! --[[User:Brammers|Brammers]] 10:00, 18 June 2008 (BST)

I've got something planned in the pipeline for Item DB 1.5.x to allow wiki articles to be automactically linked to a items, when a Item DB tag is used. So when you view one of the food items on the Item DB, there would be a link to [[Chez Sypher]] page. So the theory goes, when someone does a page on what a smuggler sells, the Item DB will be able to link to that page.

The interfaces to link pages and items will be in the THN API, and will be open to other sites to provide links. See the [[THNapi:Linking_Commands_Guide]] for a bit more information, but that document needs updating a little...and I also need to write the code.

As for searching for items in the wiki, that an issue on my list as well, unfortunatly I don't have a solution. This is due to the way the wiki works with searching. --[[User:Brammers|Brammers]] 14:07, 19 June 2008 (BST)

NC-Wiki

Hi there, well Delphi owned the NC-Wiki domain and he left the domain expire, partly because very few people were working on it. Then it was decided to bring in under the techhaven network, and allow access to the Item DB.

Now we got a good team working on it, and users like you adding new content the wiki is growing every day.

Any other questions, please ask me or User:Delphi --Brammers 01:33, 6 June 2008 (BST)

A Short History of the website formally known as the nc-wiki.com:

Originally the wiki was within the domain name www.nc-wiki.com and was launched fairly unsucesfully within the beginning of November 2006 (See here) by myself Solid Rock and Brammers. At the time it was felt that the wiki could be a fansite which could exist as its own entity, and we felt that the more people used it the more the project would grow. However the lack of help from the Neocron Community was damaging to the project. The domain name was purchased for one year by myself and webspace was donated by Brammers on the THN server, however once the one year was up we went into discussion with the THN to rehost and rebrand the Wiki under the Techhaven Network Banner. The relaunch happened at the begining of this year, and was a massive success, currently within the THN domain we are the second largest hitting sites, and are regularly getting around 20,000 page views per month - obviously at certain times we are getting more hits than others, but we are definately surviving well. I personally feel the move to the THN was the best move the wiki has done, and now we have access to such a wealth of contributors, like yourself, who are now working towards building up the articles and getting a good framework in place for other runners. We also have some exceptional programmers (Brammers) who have made somethings which would never have happened under the nc-wiki.com banner happen, eg. the link to the THNDB and the mapping API to name but two. All in all we seem to be going from strength to strength, and hope we last for a good while yet! If you want any more information just leave a message on my Talk page! δρDelphi (t)(c) 14:01, 6 June 2008 (BST)

Subpages

I see you have marked a page as in your own space, however it is in the main domain of the wiki, if you want to place pages within your own space (and if you look at my own page you will see I have a large number of personal space pages) then it is best to put it in a subpage of your username, for example my development page (well one of them) is at User:Delphi/Dev01 the forward slash makes it a subpage! I have moved your genotoxic mission data to User:Biglines/Geno and placed a link on your page for you δρDelphi (t)(c) 00:58, 10 June 2008 (BST)

Thank you, sorry about that, although maybe it was a good idea for other to contribute? Just didn't have to list it anywhere, but ok ;) --Biglines 08:51, 10 June 2008 (BST)

Genotoxic suit

Hi there, Thanks for the correction.

<itemdb:show_full_details items="2167"/>

Hopefully the details are all correct, if they are not, please let me know. --Brammers 10:50, 11 June 2008 (BST)

Vehicles

Hi there,

Which vehicle keys look messed up? I had a look at the list, and it looks ok. I do have the full set of vehicle BP's so I can check them, but give me a clue to why you think they are messed up! --Brammers 10:00, 18 June 2008 (BST)

Vendors and searching

I've got something planned in the pipeline for Item DB 1.5.x to allow wiki articles to be automactically linked to a items, when a Item DB tag is used. So when you view one of the food items on the Item DB, there would be a link to Chez Sypher page. So the theory goes, when someone does a page on what a smuggler sells, the Item DB will be able to link to that page.

The interfaces to link pages and items will be in the THN API, and will be open to other sites to provide links. See the THNapi:Linking_Commands_Guide for a bit more information, but that document needs updating a little...and I also need to write the code.

As for searching for items in the wiki, that an issue on my list as well, unfortunatly I don't have a solution. This is due to the way the wiki works with searching. --Brammers 14:07, 19 June 2008 (BST)
