Maybe the problem is solved when you save this: https://wiki.wargaming.net/en/index.php?title=Template:WoWs_SM&oldid=241227&action=edit

That's a rollback, right? System won't allow it. 504 error. Thanks for the suggestion, though. iDuckman:na (talk)

You could try to remove the content from that page. Or even try to delete the page. --Franz_von_Suppe:eu (talk) 18:58, 30 November 2019 (UTC)

That was the problem. The using page(s) can't be opened or deleted. Disabling the macro (template) let me do that, but now the template can't be opened to re-enable it, nor does a rollback work. Russia will have to fix it. iDuckman:na (talk)

Can you please make Ship:Ships_of_Germany editable, and either remove the old link to the game guide from World of Warships or change it to the newest version (but that is still outdated (from 2017)). Thanks. --Franz_von_Suppe:eu (talk) 16:59, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

I can't lift the lock. They took our Admin privileges when the wiki ate itself. I don't even know that I can edit it. Let me try. iDuckman:na (talk)

Nope. Can't touch it. I'll ask around.

Protected pages

I think most pages should not be protected. It's a wiki. Pages should be editable. Recently I corrected the Commander Skills page, now I would not be able to do that.
--Franz_von_Suppe:eu (talk) 21:34, 18 July 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for your edits. A few pages (Economy, Commander Skills) are considered "finished". I've been having to back out vandalism (intended or not) so set as Admin protected. Also some templates. Others I've set Auto-confirmed protected (not entirely sure what that does but it shouldn't affect you). If you see something on a locked page that needs changing, let me know -- I have my Admin status back. [Now, are you sure you don't want to be a Wiki Editor?] iDuckman:na (talk) 20:35, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

Repair Party Data

Are you sure that this change you made is correct for British cruisers Tier III - VII? https://wiki.wargaming.net/en/index.php?title=Ship:Repair_Party_Data&diff=293595&oldid=293594 Russian wiki still says 10% and I did an experiment with Fiji which I think confirms that.

--Franz_von_Suppe:eu (talk) 01:29, 6 January 2021 (UTC)

As cited in the change, "All Cruisers except Graf Spee get 33% citadel restore." Suspicious that the Russian wiki differs, though. I'll ask in the Privateers channel.

You're right! They get 10%, as does Nevsky (originally a bug but they decided to keep it). Thanks! iDuckman:na (talk) 21:10, 6 January 2021 (UTC)

• Is it 33% or 50% for the citadel of Plymouth?
  https://forum.worldofwarships.com/topic/232215-plymouth/?tab=comments#comment-5333185
• Tier II Weymouth also has Repair Party (only 10 s action time).

--Franz_von_Suppe:eu (talk) 22:56, 6 January 2021 (UTC)

I asked specifically -- Plymouth has "standard cruiser heal", so 33%. I should have her on my press account, but don't. I'll double check when she shows up. If you've checked Weymouth, go ahead and make the edit. And thanks again.

Expert AA Marksman

• When you activate priority sector and press and hold Alt, you see the percentages.
• My experiments confirm that there is really less damage on the weak side.

--Franz_von_Suppe:eu (talk) 21:32, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

<hmmm> I wasn't aware that you could still see the percentages. I asked the devs once about this and got back the "No effect" answer. Based on your change I asked again through a different channel. I put the -25% weak side back and tagged it as "unconfirmed". I'll be disappointed if the displayed %s are right as it makes the skill worth a lot less, and casts considerable doubt on my first channel. Thanks for letting me know. iDuckman:na (talk)

Research Bureau

"a line can't be reset unless all the ships are researched"

No, only the Tier X ship has to be researched.
Examples:

• You reset the Worcester line. Omaha becomes unresearched. You can then reset the Des Moines line, and if you do, Omaha does not get another bonus because she is unresearched.
• You get a Tier VII early-access ship and research the line from it to Tier X, the lower tiers are unresearched. You can reset the line but only researched Tier V-X ships get the bonus.

The article https://worldofwarships.com/en/news/game-updates/research-bureau-update/ says: "If, for any reason, the branch had gaps with unresearched ships, these ships will not receive bonuses for their first victories."

--Franz_von_Suppe:eu (talk) 23:16, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

Ah! I tried to think of an exception and didn't think of that combination. If you would roll back my change (I think that was all there was to it) and add a footnote about a split line being an exception, I'd appreciate it. iDuckman:na (talk)

Wiki admin stuff

Hi iDuckman, got your name from the Discord server. Few things, from Wiki Discussion, it says to only contact active Admins, and the only active person listed has some questionable content on their page. There's some suggestions I've made on template talk pages, for Template:Signal_Flags and Template:RP. I don't have access to make changes, and I've rarely seen comments/talk pages get answered here over the years. If you'd like help with admin things, I've been wiki admining for years here and there - I'd be happy to volunteer. I mainly play Warships, but I've got my hand in Tanks and to some extent Planes too (admittedly not as much as I used to).
