Talk:Dota 2 Wiki

Any ideas for a main page theme?
I was thinking of something like this: Link

Opinions? Dragory 13:18, 26 August 2011 (CDT)
 * Looks nice, kinda the layout I was thinking would look good. Would be awesome if it used the black-red palette ChocolateWaffle 13:29, 26 August 2011 (CDT)
 * Heroes and Abilities are pretty much one in the same. It really doesn't make much sense to separate either of them. Gamemodes is kind of a loose topic, considering Dota has only had the one. If they're revealed, baybe it would make sense. Otherwise it looks good. -Lancey 00:25, 27 August 2011 (CDT)
 * Agree with Lancey, for now it should be only "Heroes" "Items" and "Mechanics". So far, Dota 2 only has 1 gamemode, and abilities and strategies should be dependant to each hero.ChocolateWaffle 06:18, 27 August 2011 (CDT)
 * Gamemodes should be scrapped, leading to the 4 sections - Heroes, Strategy (this will include modes), Items and Mechanics. God of Death

Hero list on main page
Maybe move the hero list to it's own page and put links to hero, item and spell lists in that section of the main page. 000m 10:14, 28 August 2011 (CDT)
 * Hero page should also be made with a table, separating heroes by faction/attribute, as in here ChocolateWaffle 11:01, 28 August 2011 (CDT)
 * Table is done. It can be scaled to almost any size, so maybe we can do this? --Lancey 20:43, 30 August 2011 (CDT)
 * Your table looks beast! But if it goes in the main page, where does the item table go? ChocolateWaffle 21:54, 30 August 2011 (CDT)

Name Index

 * On the home page already has indexes: Heroes, Items, Mechanics ...
 * I propose to add the index: Creeps other coming soon.

Twitter link
I think the Twitter link should point to twitter.com/#!/dota2, not www.twitter.com/dota. --Kroocsiogsi 02:01, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
 * thanks. - RJ 04:06, 17 November 2011 (UTC)

Russian Moderator
Hello everything as I am alone "old man" on RussianDotaWiki, I would like to ask admins to give me the rights of the moderator, thx for attentions. Nero123 (talk | contribution) 14:51, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Generally, people who ask for moderator rights are not very moderate. -Lancey 16:18, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Currently all russian moderators is offline. They even on this wiki don't come. Nero123  (talk | contribution) 12:55, 10 December 2011 (UTC)

Chat Abbrevations
I've started a page for chat abbrevations based off this post: http://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/pfyse/dota_2_abbreviations_also_n00b_quickstart/c3p1vmd

It might be nice to link to it from the main page.

 * It's here Glossary -.- Redefining history 08:16, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
 * This is just fyi, but in my region:


 * 1) Prophet is never called NP, due to him being named only Prophet in DotA.
 * 2) CW is for "Centaur Warchief", Clockwerk is called Clock or CG (Clockwerk Goblin).
 * 3) SS is for Shadow Shaman, Storm Spirit is called Storm or ST.
 * 4) BM is always Beastmaster, whereas Broodmother is called Brood or BR.
 * 5) Doom Bringer is called Doom, never DB.
 * 6) Skeleton King is never called Leo.

I have absolutely no point to make here :P Redefining history 08:22, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

What happens with sortable table?
Why sortable table now simply table? — The preceding unsigned comment was added by Auss1204 (talk) • (contribs)


 * I think it is fixed now. Thank you for reporting the problem. --Kroocsiogsi 22:59, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

Banner Adjustment
I've made an adjusted version of the banner, mostly to customize the A but also some other subtle things, like a gradient and kerning adjustments. If an admin could approve/disapprove of this and update File:Wiki-banner.png accordingly I would appreciate it! --Pigbuster 18:25, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
 * lgtm. Note that the Chinese wiki has a variant of this logo. --Kroocsiogsi 04:42, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for letting me know! I went ahead and made versions for traditional and simplified Chinese. --Pigbuster 05:08, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Done! Redefining history 05:31, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
