			*Technically NOT ASH-related, but KoLmafia has difficulty understanding haiku combat. In particular, as of r8611, it cannot detect acquisition of {{kolwiki\|fairy gravy boat}}s from the {{kolwiki\|Gravy Fairy Wing}} adventure. Therefore you must NOT use a goal and auto-adventure to get one. Let the adventurer beware!

	That is true, and deserves fixing; but please don't do so in a way that breaks a massive amount of links, ktx. --[[User:StDoodle\|StDoodle (#1059825)]] 04:18, 21 June 2010 (UTC)		That is true, and deserves fixing; but please don't do so in a way that breaks a massive amount of links, ktx. --[[User:StDoodle\|StDoodle (#1059825)]] 04:18, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

	Heh, that's okay (re: discussion on []Datatype Constants]). For most pages it isn't a huge issue, but that one... it requires fixing in quite a few places, some of which unfortunately won't be automatically be fixed by redirects during a page move (this seems to happen when some of the links are from templates, which this page has a massive number of). For reference, this wiki has problems with both the "design by committee" philosophy & the "legacy problems" philosophy. Originally, the stuff here was simply copy & pasted from an guide that had been hosted elsewhere, which itself was about 2/3 original material and 1/3 copied from Hola's old reference material. That led to the problem of pages having inappropriate names, as by the time the issue was given thought, they were deeply ingrained in the wiki structure. Then there's the "committee" issue, which resulted in some over-elaborate templates. For the most part, the last issue doesn't present any issues with searching and display, but does up the learning curve for "proper" page editing in some places (mostly on the function pages). In the end, I'm glad to have another person interested in helping; but please, before making any massive-scale (many pages) edits, or moving pages, a discussion would be appreciated. As you now know, there are "methods in the madness" for some of this stuff... ;) Also, if you want to help with getting [[Datatype Constants]] corrected, I'd be happy to jot down some notes on what needs to be done in the next day or so. --[[User:StDoodle\|StDoodle (#1059825)]] 15:51, 21 June 2010 (UTC)		Heh, that's okay (re: discussion on Datatype Constants).
