Ivan Wiki is now up
http://www.attnam.com/wiki/

You have to register there separately from the forum (well... you don't have to register at all)

Our previous wiki is now also up at http://ivan.elwiki.com/

Someone should see what is useful, and add it to the new wiki. (I think capristo even can do it in a way so that pages' histories are preserved - export/import.) And then add a signpost to the new wiki.

In case if it disappears, I have exported a copy too.

Is there a reason it's up now and wasn't earlier? Did it go down for a while like Jconserv, or did somebody intentionally take it down and put it back up?
Don't have time now but I'll do what I can tomorrow

I don't know. For a long time it was not available at all. Several hours ago it said something about too many connections. Now it works.

I've tried checking http://www.elwiki.com/ itself, but it does not work yet apparently

I just imported the old Wiki onto this one.

For those who are editing the Wiki
http://www.attnam.com/wiki/index.php/Special:Ancientpages
Everything before Dec 2007 is unique to the old wiki. Everything after Dec 2007 is either unique to the new Wiki, or there was an article on BOTH the old and the new, and the old article is hidden in the revision history somewhere (overwritten by our new one). So if you're stuck on an article, just check the revision history, and it's possible that somebody wrote something good on the old one.

I see you didn't save the forum related pages?

I saw all those Bios and had no clue wtf they were so I started deleting them. Only later did I see they were part of forum-related. Want me to put everything back up? Seemed to me that all of the forum-related pages were pretty old and incomplete. I think it'd be awesome to start the communal IVAN game going again

The bios were for the forum RP, and Virna was sort of a multiplayer fanfic.

For Monsters, always place this info under a stats and equipment heading:

==Stats and Equipment==

{{Monster
|name=
|type=
|astr=
|lstr=
|dex=
|agi=
|end=
|per=
|int=
|wis=
|cha=
|size=
|hp=
|equipment=
*Put
*Into
*List
|state=[[Link to each]], [[Separate by comma]]
}}

Example:

==Stats and Equipment==

{{Monster
|name=Ur-Khan
|type=the orc marshal
|astr=30
|lstr=30
|dex=20
|agi=42
|end=30
|per=36
|int=14
|wis=12
|cha=8
|size=180
|hp=671
|equipment=
*Full Mithril Helmet +2
*Angel Hair Cloak +2
*Dragon Hide Armor +2
*Ruby Belt +2
*Ruby Halberd +3 (skill 14/15)
*Ring of Teleport Control
*Pair of Dragon Hide Gauntlets of Strength +2
*Pair of Spider Silk Boots +2
*4 Bottles of Ommel Urine
|state=[[Infravision]], [[Gas Immunity]]
}}

See below for what it looks like

Wiki is back up!
Fortunately I was right, all I had to do was update the software
I don't believe anything was lost, though I could be wrong.

Here a template for the materials (I tried to add #if but I ended by figuring that the needed extension isn't installed ^^')

As you could see, no need to write the material name, plus, "Flexibility", "Hardens to", "Req Int" and "Notes" are facultatives (as specified in the script). Remove the unused line, the template will automatically add the default value. Don't forget the double brackets when adding the "Deity" and "Hardens to"!

Here the blank code :
{{Materials
|str=
|flex=
|dens=
|deity=
|hard=
|int=
|notes=
}}

And an example, with no notes (Phoenix Feather) :
{{Materials
|str=80
|flex=39
|dens=200
|deity=[[Silva]]
|hard=[[Dragon Hide]]
|int=20
}}
Edit (27 March 200 : Added the {{Spoiler}} in the Materials template and added the "Notes" entry.

I've now created almost all of the Monster images

A couple animated! That was tough

Excellent work.

I tried altering the monster template a bit to add a pic in the corner:

http://www.attnam.com/ivanwiki/index.php?title=Template:...

Well, it works (I've used that on Richel Decos page as an example), but the name gets kicked to the left.

It would probably be much easier to add yet another cell for the picture, but whenever I tried this, I couldn't set its size properly and it was either taking over a half of the top bar, or introducing a new row.
