Guild Wars 2 Wiki:Requests for widget editor rights
From Guild Wars 2 Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search
Embedded scripts and stylesheets can be found within the Widget namespace of this wiki. Because of the potential high impact effects of accidentally breaking high-traffic widgets, the namespace is locked by default. Widget editors are users that are granted access to edit articles within the Widget namespace. This page is to request editing access to that namespace for yourself.
To request editing access, make sure you have registered an account on this wiki and are logged in. Then add the following to the top of the list below, replacing the indicated parts:
; {{user|<username>}} : <Reason you are requesting access> ~~~~
It is more likely you will be granted access if you have previously shown your editing capabilities by contributing to other parts of the wiki.
Requests[edit]
Starting with the most recent request
- Cboyd (talk • contribs • logs • block log)
- I'd like to be able to integrate maps with the achievement interface. I find the current lantern lists a little cumbersome, especially when nearby lanterns aren't necessarily sequential. I'll initially fork the widget for the new support to avoid breaking any existing pages. Example layout (currently lacking transparency like the table): https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/User:Cboyd/sandbox Cboyd (talk) 06:35, 22 September 2024 (UTC)

- Hello,
- i'd like to try my hand at working with Widget:Wikipopup_extended.
- In particular it bothers me that it is hiding most of the skill facts if there are too many or if the description is too long.
- On its page you can see that Meteor Shower has no facts displayed despite the fact that on the skill page there are 9 skill facts.
- Possible solutions: longer tooltip, scroll bar, smaller text, mixture of these.
- I'll see what's more reasonable in the context of the wiki.

- Hey,
- I am trying to set up daylies and weeklies tables for the wizard's vault. As there are 42-49 combinations of gamemodes and expansions active, just implementing all tables on a page would create a table scroll of doom along the page.
- I already asked single admins about adapting the filter table widget, but they replied that it may be better to write a new widget for this usecase, and I'd agree to that.
- As i did study coding and software engineering in university myself and got some experience in JS and CSS too, I'd try it out myself when :I got spare time, instead of just asking other ppl if they might got time for that - if i am allowed to get widget creation/edition rights granted.
- Even though I still must admit that I am not experienced in coding for a mediawiki environment and never did code a widget before.
- Alternatively - I know widget requests do belong onto another page - I would then request a new widget that would make a dynamic filter possible of 1. any desired combination of PvE, PvP and/or WvW amongst 2. choosing a single choice of combination of expansions - ideally to improve site performance it would be best if there was a posibility to make non-filter-fitting tables only load when displayed.

- Hi Altair! Thank you for taking an interest in helping out the wiki, especially in sorting out the dailies and weeklies. I'm generally reluctant to give out certain rights to newer editors, but if you're going to be working on a new widget rather than modifying older ones, I see less chance for accidents spilling over.

- I'd like to work on API widgets, including fixing Widget:Account_achievements and Widget:Account_skins' key storing bug Karasu (talk) 17:02, 30 June 2022 (UTC)
- Wormhole (talk • contribs • logs • block log)
- Requesting a temporary permission for a simple name change from "Aspenwood" to "Gods' Vengeance" to keep consistency of the naming scheme (names are generally the names of the end boss, not areas or partial area names). Wormhole ≈ ≈ 16:37, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

- TxonAtana (talk • contribs • logs • block log)
- No actual reason for the moment, although I have had some ideas on past that I couldn't try (the daily widget was one iirc). But I would like it to be up to help with it whenever is needed. Actually I just had an idea for something similar to Filter table but for a particular case that I would like to try. --Txonä Atan - (talk) 03:48, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
- Granted. Greener (talk) 03:58, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
- Muhaha, my domination plan can now begin. :P Joking, of course, hehe. Thank you! ----Txonä Atan - (talk) 04:06, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
- Granted. Greener (talk) 03:58, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

- I would like to add Sigil of Impact to Widget:Damage calculator. Life Infusion «T» 03:10, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
- Granted. I've included extended editor rights to make things easier. Greener (talk) 12:03, 15 April 2020 (UTC)

- Nightsky (talk • contribs • logs • block log)
- I would like to fix the Widget:Daily achievements to display the little coloured corners again because i really liked them. I would do that using the earliest schema version that provides the requiered product conditions again (
?v=2019-05-16T00:00:00.000Z
). I would already have a purple corner ready for upload for Path of Fire requiering dailies too (would as such only need to be protect like the others are then). Nightsky (talk) 23:59, 10 February 2020 (UTC)- Just fyi I've given the b'crats a prod to show them that this page now exists. fwiw, i had no idea the api had been fixed for those flags - just demonstrates why it would be great to have more editors for widgets. -Chieftain Alex 00:14, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
- Granted. Sorry for the delay, this page is now on my watchlist. Greener (talk) 05:22, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks. And no need to excuse. You don't have to like respond within five seconds after a request; and the two days, five hours and 23 minutes (as per the timestamps) it ended up taking are still perfectly fine by me. I appreciate your two's efforts that made for this fast response. Nightsky (talk) 19:25, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
