Was the old script created by Gamepedia? Where is the code located at now? Which API endpoints did it use to get its info? --[[User:Wiwiweb|Wiwiweb]] ([[User talk:Wiwiweb|talk]]) 17:00, 26 April 2018 (UTC)

:Yes, the importer was created internally, and IIRC was built in .Net. Unfortunately, I don't have access to it, and I think the data source was supplied to us by the developers, though I'm not sure if it was any different than the game files. I'll try to get more information, but it's been a while and I'm not entirely sure who to follow up with on this these days, so I can't promise a quick response.

:I decided on a whim to skim through the game files, but I didn't see anything there that looked like the kind of unit data we were getting from the developers, so I'd assume it's kept on the servers. So our importer would be useless without the developers supplying the data files. [[User:OOeyes|OOeyes]] ([[User talk:OOeyes|talk]]) 06:48, 26 April 2018 (UTC)

::The developer Elyot said that the Gamepedia wiki script [https://s3.amazonaws.com/lunarch_blog/Units/public+json.txt used to use this API endpoint] however I can see it's missing half the information, such as the tooltip. So either there used to be a more complete API endpoint, or the Gamepedia script was complex enough that it could generate everything missing. --[[User:Wiwiweb|Wiwiweb]] ([[User talk:Wiwiweb|talk]]) 17:03, 26 April 2018 (UTC)

Revision as of 17:03, 26 April 2018

About your userpage

Hey. For some reason, the way your userpage is set up causes a "Template:Gphelp::User:OOeyes" page to show up in Special:WantedPages. Is there a way to fix that? Pjoelj 05:52, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

It looks like it was enough to simply resave the user pages that are transcluding from the help wiki. Probably means the pages were imported before the interwiki link was set up, and the wiki never updated it on its own for some reason and needed a kick to do so.

I believe you can run the update bots? It seems like we're missing several of the new / rebalanced units. If you have a moment to update things we'd appreciate it. Cheers. --NNUMskull (talk) 10:04, 2 April 2015 (UTC)

Oh, for a moment I thought you just mean resave, and I got that started. It's been that kind of week. x_x
I can't run it myself, no, but I'll request a fresh import be done as soon as possible. OOeyes (talk) 21:46, 2 April 2015 (UTC)

Xaetron Card

The xaetron card, when viewed on mobile, doesn't seem to have enough information. The card states that xaetron is a 4-health fragile, and that its click makes it lose 7 to produce 5 gauss charges.There is no real mention of healing 4 every turn, or what the xaetron's health starts at. Could you take a look at this? -- pokemonsta433(talk)

The data page was missing the extra information. Maybe it was just out of date. I think the automated imports aren't being run anymore, so it really doesn't hurt to just fix the data pages for missing information like that. (The infoboxes should link the page they're drawing data from.) OOeyes (talk) 19:19, 18 March 2018 (UTC)

Data page script

Hi, I'm trying to get some info on the old unit data importer script to maybe try and make a new one.
