I didn't realize there was a forum section but I'll use this here now instead of the wiki main page talk section.

This is what I noticed today in regards to templates.

I recently edited this article here Ethereal Adornment of Aggressiveness (Greater) and as you can see it has two rarity flags "Mastercrafted" and "Legendary". I wasn't able to figure out a way to make those fit properly in the article with the current template.

It would be nice if the template would allow for multiple flags. It seems to just allow for one atm. The automatically assigned category is also a fusion of the two flags. Jado818 Jado818 ( talk ) 14:49, November 1, 2013 (UTC)

"Mastercrafted Legendary" is actually considered one rarity, rather than two separate flags. A lot of the older crafted adorns probably need updating to that rarity, since many of them were created / added to the wiki back before they came up with the Mastercrafted Legendary tag and just considered them Legendary. -- lordebon ( talk )

Ok, I'll start changing the adornments to Master Crafted Legendary at some point soon. I want to finish going through the Tier 9 and Tier 10 adornments first. Then I'll update the rarity on all of the "Greater" adornments. Then I need to update the recipe books to add Green Adornments. Adornments need lots of work but It will get there eventually ;p Jado818 ( talk ) 14:39, November 2, 2013 (UTC)

I might be able to convert the adornments to MC Legendary / MC Fabled from the old Legendary/Fabled pretty easily with a bot run actually. I'll fire the ol' program up and see if I can do that. -- lordebon ( talk ) 16:30, November 2, 2013 (UTC)

And done. All the old Legendary/Fabled crafted adorns should now be properly listed as MC Legendary or MC Fabled as appropriate. -- lordebon ( talk ) 17:31, November 2, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the assist. I probably should figure out how to set up a bot at some point lol. The Mastercrafted Fabled seem to be all done. However, only the Astral T10 Greater adornments got hit with the Mastercrafted Legendary tag. Jado818 ( talk ) 15:21, November 3, 2013 (UTC)

I bot rarely, so I mainly use AutoWikiBrowser, which gives a handy GUI approach that makes it relatively easy (and safe) to make mass-changes. That could be a good starting point if you're interested, and be sure to check out the Bot Policy as well. The rest of the Greater adorns should be done now as well, I forgot to run the list for the old Mastercrafted category and ran it against the Legendary category only. -- lordebon ( talk ) 15:45, November 3, 2013 (UTC)
