Talk:List of pirates who collect specific ship names

From YPPedia

I'd really love to clean it up by allowing the Piratename to be the text displayed for the link to forum PM's, but that's getting a little over my head and will require much more sandbox testing than I had time to do tonight. --Muroni 17:20, 10 December 2006 (PST)

There ya go. Looks good to me. Add away. --Guppymomma 17:45, 10 December 2006 (PST)

Thank you Guppy, that's exactly what I was thinking! I'll add names tonight before bed!--Muroni 20:21, 10 December 2006 (PST)

Took a bit longer than expected. I went to every shipyard stall and shoppe on Midnight and canibalized their lists. I collated them all, removed duplications. I sat there and did a /who to make sure they were all still active and removed any that were not. I searched forums trying to get user names. For those I could not locate usernames, I put "unknown". We may need to column this like some of the other lists...--Muroni 08:07, 16 December 2006 (PST)

Done Fiddling, Cobalt next

Ok. I created header and footer templates, and added alphebatized columns. I played around with graphics to attempt to use them to specify sizes of ships we collect (like the icons used for +18/+21 on the real life meetups list), but if I made them small enough to work, you couldn't tell what they were. So, I've given up on that. Instead, I made the list only 3 columns for now, instead of 4, to allow space to write " - Sloops only" or " - Warbrig only", for example.

I'm still verifying old lists. I've done another round of removing folks who have been dormant on midnight for over 2 months. I've private messaged everybody whom I had a forum name for. I have a short list of pirates I'm still contacting in game, but at this point, most of the "unknowns" are because they simply do not use private messages and prefer to be contacted by pirate name in game. Other than a few more verifications, I'm officially done with the revisions I currently have in mind.

I guess I'll start trying to put a list together for Cobalt, and then go down the line. Don't expect it to happen too soon, but I'll be working on it in the coming months. --Muroni 14:17, 27 January 2007 (PST)

Seperating Adjectives and Fish names for Midnight

Upon looking at all the Midnight collectors, I am wondering if it is not time to start a seperate list of adjectives. I think seperating them from the fish names would be really helpfull. If no one minds I would go ahead and do this. Maybe someone could set up the the layout box and I could just organize the names? I am pretty sure I could copy and paste and do it all myself with out doing too much damage but you guys are the professionals. :) Cheshire2u 18:44, 28 August 2007 (PDT)

I have gone ahead and update this page seperating the Adjectives and Fish names for midnight. I think people will find this more usefull. I played with the table of contents listing but since there are only the 4 sub catagories for now I just left them as is. Someone with more knowlege and pizzaz can adjust things if they like.

Could this page be made more findable?

I had no idea this page existed, and if I click "what links here" no pages are found. I'm wondering if there is some way it could be made more findable, but don't really know where to start. Is there someone watching this page who knows their way around the wiki better than I do? --Lesleywalker 23:55, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
