You might want to create a user skill infobox instead of using {{skill infobox}}--Relyk ~ talk < 00:43, 16 November 2015 (UTC)

I wouldn't even include an infobox in the template examples, since they take up a lot of space and draw attention away from the smaller templates. —Dr Ishmael User Dr ishmael Diablo the chicken.png 01:55, 16 November 2015 (UTC)
I was debating that as well. On the one hand I do want to include a bigger example with named parameters, and I do kind of like that it draws your attention when scrolling through the page so that people will notice that it isn't that complicated to add something like this to a page; on the other hand, you're right that it detracts from the previous examples. I tried putting it into an expandable table, but that wasn't worth it, and I tried simply linking to the existing skill page for an example, but I wanted to simplify the variables parameter for this. Maybe I'll try to separate the named and unnamed parameter sections to give it a bit more space and I'll see then. User Noxx Sig.png 10:03, 16 November 2015 (UTC)

Bug and Anomaly[edit]

It would be nice if there would be a short description of the topic "bug and anomaly" here in the article, or a link to one. If I miss something please explain it a bit.

How to make editing easier?[edit]

Hi there, I'm new to the Gw2 Wiki editing experience (and wiki editing in general). Is there a chrome extension or something else that makes it easier to have a WYSIWYG experience? There is a lot of customization ... are there any tips/clues for remember the various codes that can be used for editing?

the only ones you need to know are
  1. linking to another wiki page with double square brackets, which will cover 99% of any prose you write.
  2. that there's a page called GW2W:FORMAT with copy-paste structures for any page
