Template:Region

Ehm, so... I've made some changes to {{Region}}. First of all I'm shocked the wiki didn't die after I made the edit, so whatever the devs did the last time, well done! Anyway, just a quick overview of the changes:

  • replaced population with residents and visitors
  • added last update field
  • added {{Update}} to all pages where resources haven't been updated to the ones after Resource Wars (2016). These pages are added to Category:Outdated region pages for easier tracking. Basically all articles there should be updated with new resources at some point in time (goal: 2020). Update notice will be removed by replacing resource with resource1 (and resource2, resource3, resource4 where needed)
  • if a region has no resource, resource1 should be used but left blank

Hey Bogi. Great work! There seems to be an issue with the localisated region pages. Example: Aegean_Islands, all the details are fine. However: Aegean_Islands/Ελληνικά the resource is not coming through, nor is the residents and visitors. Could you have a look when you get a chance? --"Icon-eRepublik.png Gucio «Talk»" 11:01, 16 April 2018 (PDT)
Ohai Gucio! I had only updated Region template, and translated pages use iRegion, which should be working now. --Icon-Montenegro.png BogiTalk 03:14, 18 April 2018 (PDT)
Awesome, Thanks Bogi! -"Icon-eRepublik.png Gucio «Talk»" 09:41, 19 April 2018 (PDT)

G-Bot is back alive

A couple of weeks ago, someone has mentioned that the Region data is no longer being updated, which was correct. We used to have 2 scripts which were ran periodically and updated all the region data. At one points the scripts did break, one due to the fact that the API it was using no longer exists and the other API did not provide all of the required data. I have managed to dig out the scripts from one of my backups. With the help of Icurlybear and Master_rg's API the one of the scripts is back up and running. The script will trigger G-Bot to update the region owners data daily. Hopefully in the nearer future we may be able to get the other script working. Happy Days! :)

Update citizen template to include foundation badges

Could someone update citizen template to include Plato Foundation's badges?

P.S Maybe fallen citizen as well?

Gyantse «Talk», 2 May 2018

Citizen and ICitizen template will be updated on September 30 during the day and it could happen that wiki will not work as fast (or even crash) during the day, so I would refrain from doing any big changes during that Sunday. Major changes will include the new foundation badges (Icon Plato foundation former board member.png and Icon Plato foundation board member.png) and some correction to the aircraft rank. ICitizen will have a complete overhaul to follow the past updates and this last update to the Citizen template. --AndyCro Icon-Croatia.png Do you need assistance? Then ask me! ;)) 10:56, 19 September 2018 (PDT)
UPDATE: Test area can be viewed now. This is an overview of the updates for the Citizen template:
  • Military rank and aircraft rank WILL NOT BE SHOWN if no data has been inputted, instead of showing the pre-set ranks as it was until now. If the wrong data is inputted, the lowest rank will be shown (Icon rank Recruit.png Recruit and Airman 0.png Airman)
  • Plato foundation badges will be added with the link to the Foundation Project page. Depending on if chosen if the citizen is a current or former member, category Category:Plato foundation members (platofoundation=yes) or Category:Plato foundation former members (platofoundation=ex) will be added as well.
  • Category:Fallen citizens will be added if the citizen is fallen (fallen=yes).
  • Minor correction to the size of the template to fit in a bit longer aircraft ranks.

@Gyantse: What do you mean by "fallen" citizen? --AndyCro Icon-Croatia.png Do you need assistance? Then ask me! ;)) 10:56, 19 September 2018 (PDT)
This one; Gyantse (talk) 00:34, 21 September 2018 (PDT)
@Gyantse: I can see what could be done, as on wiki we don't use the standarized images so it won't be a complete frame link in-game. --AndyCro Icon-Croatia.png Do you need assistance? Then ask me! ;)) 04:15, 22 September 2018 (PDT)
@Gyantse: I tried a bit to play around and I see two options (check the Test area):
1) Add a bottom part of frame with a link to the Fallen citizen article and a Category:Fallen citizens (currently tested in the test area)
2) Only adding the Category:Fallen citizens
Unless you have a third option with some kind of a badge or something else. Waiting for your input. :) --AndyCro Icon-Croatia.png Do you need assistance? Then ask me! ;)) 15:14, 26 September 2018 (PDT)
Looks good to me. Also the position of the wings on the template looks good and demonstrate the position of them on ingame avatars. Gyantse (talk) 12:08, 28 September 2018 (PDT)

Updates have been added and it seems it went really smooth. If you find any errors or bugs, please let me know, either by posting here in the error log or on my user talk page. --AndyCro Icon-Croatia.png Do you need assistance? Then ask me! ;)) 06:28, 30 September 2018 (PDT)

Additional changes to {{ICitizen}} translations have been made to perform correctly in military and politics segment of the template. --AndyCro Icon-Croatia.png Do you need assistance? Then ask me! ;)) 14:33, 5 October 2018 (PDT)

Template IRegion

Just a note, {{IRegion}} has been updated to match {{Region}}. Also {{IRegion/doc}} has instructions on how to translate the IRegion to all supported languages. If there are some editors that would like to check the already existing translations, take a look as there are some additional tags that still need to be translated. Have a great weekend! --AndyCro Icon-Croatia.png Do you need assistance? Then ask me! ;)) 11:25, 19 October 2018 (PDT)

WikiProject Geography

WPGeo logo.png This user is a member of the
eRepublik Geography WikiProject.

So, I'm trying to do something here. If there are still alive people on the wiki who are willing to join, please do. For start, there is this pretty badge: {{WPGeo User|(Username)}}. Otherwise, I should hope to finish by year 2020 Grin.png --Icon-Montenegro.png BogiTalk 13:33, 28 November 2018 (PST)

So, the scope of this project is too pretty much make/update the scripts were updating some info about regions/countries and make scripts to maintain the other info that you have in the goals? Because, sure a manual update of all regions would be a yes, but at some point those info would still need update, so I guess at some point there will be a script to automate these.
Or I guess another solution for the manual update would be a preparation with writing the updated templates' field at those pages which have older version of some templates...Anyway, what I asked :P --Icon-Greece.png Jimkats1 | profile 15:33, 28 November 2018 (PST)
At the moment, I'm primarily concerned with updating resources on each page. It's no longer 1 resource per region: regions can have up 4, with most having 0. Hence, the template had to be changed a bit, and the pages need to follow up as well. The only way for me to do this manually, but if you know of any other ways, you'll be saving me a lot of time :) --Icon-Montenegro.png BogiTalk 15:49, 28 November 2018 (PST)

Update

We can say that 33% of active users (3) joined the project, which is pretty good! :D

Soooo... On December 3 I finished updating regions with resources. I still have a few missing to what was announced on forum ( https://prnt.sc/lune58 ), but hopefully that will get sorted soon. Possibly some resources haven't been chosen to be placed anywhere? Anyway, I'm now onto updating the rest of the regions (the ones with no resource). I've also changed {{Region}} a bit, as you can see in the edit summary. Historical capital design might not be the best one, but I couldn't come up with anything else. I'll match the changes to {{IRegion}} as well soon.

Along with updating the rest of the regions, I'm also trying to add info about previous resources from the page history and in some cases this update and I'm also adding RL coat of arms where possible.

*finishes talking to himself* --Icon-Montenegro.png BogiTalk 13:29, 13 December 2018 (PST)

Update #2

Last night I finally finished updating regions. With Gucio's help I managed to track down the missing resources. I have updated {{iRegion}} to match {{Region}} (made a bit mess as I didn't notice a tiny space which made a difference between {{iRegion}} and {{iRegion/Core}}). Anyway, outdated localised region pages are now added to Category:Outdated region pages, but I hope these should be easier to update, as basically you can copy the code from the main (English) page and not spend time collecting data.

Next, I'll be adding historical resources info to regions, which is something I started midway through updating regions with no resource, so still a lot left. Not much info on resources won during 2015 Resource Wars (mainly just a few pages updated by Andy and me during 2015/early 2016 and capitals – they all got fish), so if anyone finds info about these, do share please.

Also, project membership has doubled since the last time: Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:WPGeo_User! Overwhelmed --Icon-Montenegro.png BogiTalk 04:35, 5 January 2019 (PST)
