- I got bored... I'm really just waiting for Extension:Parserfunctions before I do many more content edits and I didn't want to take much time to do maps today.

Help with User Page
Question Is it possible to take the tab type menu and combine it with the collapisible class to show like a menu area where you could choose different areas. i.e User:Belgrave and then have inside when you press show Wiki Hints and Tips And Links. I have not tried to work on this but I think in away I was trying to do it with just the collapisible function on my test page where you can see it is not working out very good. Any input is appreciated and I am not wanting you to write the whole thing I am just asking if it can be done. I tried using what you told me I left out in the scroll bars side by side code.

- If you mean is it possible to make a collapsible tab which when you click [show] it gives a dropdown of other options, I think that should be possible. All you'd have to do was make each tab a separate collapsible table with one column. If you want the dropdown to be offcentered, then that gets a little more detailed but would require something similar to what I have in Template:StatBox.
- I'm actually rewriting Template:StatBox now so it can show everything you get in in-game item mouseovers. It might be a few days before it's finished though, since I'm concentrating more on updating all the item pages first. As far as I'm concerned, the real content has higher priority over all the frills and thrills and user pages.

I understand fully. Am I to understand that you are updating the itewm pages to the new formats. If so I may help you in that task if you would like the help. I also have a Question that concerns the game play. I am in the The Great Tree Canopy are and have been to the other areas around The Great Tree Canopy. I am wondering where do I go next for level 120 and up. I am now at Lvel 121 and have no place to go. I know that this might not be the place to ask this question but I thought I would ask it anyway and see what the answer is. Thanks for the info you have given me already. Please let me know if you do need the help in moving the information to the new formated pages.

- Yes, I am converting all the item pages so they use Template:Item. This will allow us to make changes to the item page layout without having to then edit every single item page each time we do that. As for where to level at 120, that's what this wiki is for. It has all the information you need! You can look at Tutorial to see quick links to just about everything, and more specifically, the Main Page has a link straight to areas. Anyway, instant portal back to Krul Island, take Mountain Path to Ethereal Gateway and that takes you to Ethereal City.

Would you like some help in this endeavor. I have to wait for my stamina to recharge and I do have the time.

Min MAX Crafted statistics
Hello, I don't think this is a good idea for 2 reasons. First, the pages code is becoming too complex and second, the quality label of a craft is related to the total gain compared to the uncrafted item. So basicaly, for most items with multiple crafted statistics, the minimum value for any stat is the bas euncrafted value for up to average or good items. I think it is better to give a "typical" value (and warn than actual values may vary...). Well, just my own .02€.

- This isn't too bad an idea, but keep in mind that the values are there to have a more accurate result.

- It's mostly the way it is to show the available range of values for that specific level of crafting. If we tied it to a specific value, then someone would have to sit down and calculate an average, something which is hard to do without a very large sampling. I have considered adding a calculator that does that into the template, but then again, it's still reliant on the min and max available values for each stat in that crafting level. As for the page's code, it's complex inside Template:Item, but since the template is working, it's easier for people to contribute since they only have to fill in the blanks.
