Gallery talk:Building Instructions

From BIONICLEsector01

We Don't need that gallery... It is absolutely useless -- Surel-Nuva (Talk) 08:40, 10 September 2016 (CET)

This page was created to allow users to easily sort through building instructions on this wiki in a organized way. I myself have wanted to browse through instructions on occasion for original advertisements, statistics, etc., but found it very difficult to search the lego website for the instructions I was looking for. It will eventually be expanded by both my own and other user contributions. (Harsulins Ghost)
I actually like the idea. Don't think we need an actual page (it can be linked to from Sets) but a gallery, with a bit of organization, could be really useful. -- Dorek Talk external image 02:28, 12 September 2016 (CET)
Okay. Another thing... when will be the "Template:SkullRaiderNav" deleted? It has been merged with the Template:SkullCreatureNav, so it's become useless. And should I create an official page for the Shadow Spawn or not? -- Surel-Nuva (Talk) 15:51, 14 September 2016 (CET)

Thank you, Dorek, for the support. And no, their did not need to be a page for the gallery, but I am very inexperienced in wiki coding and organization so I thought the page had to exist for my gallery to exist... Ha,Ha. I would also like to thank Volitak Boxor, and you Surel-Nuva for making this page look so nice. I don't know how to do tables. :) Harsulin's Ghost (talk) 02:52, 24 September 2016 (CET)

I created a .pdf with the name "8758_instructions" then realized it needed to be capitalized, but I don't know how to delete the old .pdf.--Harsulin's Ghost (talk) 22:32, 18 June 2017 (CET)

All good, I deleted it. In the future there's no need to reupload, just drop a message on a staff member's talk page and we'll take care of it. Only staff can delete or move pages/files. -- Morris the Mata Nui Cow (talk) 23:20, 18 June 2017 (CET)

Great! Thanks for getting to that so quickly.--Harsulin's Ghost (talk) 23:57, 18 June 2017 (CET)

I have the 10204 instructions in my collection of pdfs that I gathered a couple years back, but it's not just one pdf, it's two, one for Vezon, and one for Kardas. I don't know how this should be set up for this gallery page, or the 10204 set page.--Harsulin's Ghost (talk) 23:15, 12 July 2017 (CET)

Categories

There's reason to keep the Titans label for Roodaka, Sidorak, Keetongu. Though not originally used, LEGO Shop at Home did grandfather the sets into the Titans category once it was established in 2007 (see here: [1]). And I think that makes more sense than labeling Keetongu under "Visorak" on its set page. --Volitak Boxor (talk) 21:18, 1 September 2017 (CET)

.It's been changed for that Gallery. — SurelNuva (Talk) 21:23, 1 September 2017 (CET)

Problem With the Index

Does anyone know how we might be able to add meta data or something, so that the Index at the top of the page says the sets years instead of, 1.1, 1.2, etc.--Harsulin's Ghost (talk) 22:48, 2 September 2017 (CET)

I think the only way is to left the subcategories as 2001-2016 and insert the banner between the tables and the title. I'll do it. — SurelNuva (Talk) 07:25, 3 September 2017 (CET)
Okay, the way I wanted didin't work. So I've done it in another way. — SurelNuva (Talk) 07:48, 3 September 2017 (CET)

1. for 06 we should change it to a picture of the toa - the inika masks have some pretty cool looks when they're done right (see the masks page haha) 2. for 08, we could use that picture of the mistika flying to the codrex from that video that was released in bits and pieces on bionicle.com - the one with gali, onua, and tahu flying after tahu has been fighting the makuta by himself. what do you guys think? Intelligence4 (talk) 03:09, 5 September 2017 (CET)

Well I would definitely be happy to put together some other image concepts if we want to change any. I'll try at that Inika masks banner, but I don't have a way to take images out of the Mistika video unless there is already some on this site.

And um, the way the banners are staggered right now, it looks sloppy and confusing.--Harsulin's Ghost (talk) 03:01, 1 October 2017 (CET)

Why?? Because they're in their respective tables? Because they don't rearrange anything? Because they don't rename the subsections? — SurelNuva (Talk) 11:02, 1 October 2017 (CET) — SurelNuva (Talk) 11:02, 1 October 2017 (CET)

Well, at first I thought maybe the banners were protruding more as you go farther down the list, sort of like some kind of indentation, but then when I got to the 2007 banner, it was moved back left a bit. Eventually I realized that they were changing position to keep them centered with their tables, which seems good in theory, but when I looked it over, it really just seemed to add extra confusion to the page. I'm not completely opposed to the current layout, but I would like to see what everyone else thinks.

@ Intelligence4, just curious what mask images you had in mind for the Inika banner. Were you thinking the graffiti looking pics?--Harsulin's Ghost (talk) 21:29, 1 October 2017 (CET)

Hey, here's an idea! I don't know if it's possible, but can we have the tables centered with the page. That way all the banners could be centered and the different tables would just get wider on both sides evenly, instead of this sort of weird staggered look.--Harsulin's Ghost (talk) 01:25, 6 October 2017 (UTC)
It's easily doable if you take them out of the tables, but is that what we want? No matter what it's gonna look a little off because of the difference in names and amounts. -- Dorek Talk external image 05:19, 6 October 2017 (UTC)
I tried before I save that version. It just looked odd. — SurelNuva (Talk) 05:56, 6 October 2017 (UTC)
I really like the way you've got it set up now!--Harsulin's Ghost (talk) 20:42, 8 October 2017 (UTC)
Thank you, I just like to have thing aligned in center, but if you have ever been on my User-page you know it :D — SurelNuva (Talk) 21:13, 8 October 2017 (UTC)

I think i was talking about this one: http://biosector01.com/wiki/File:Elda.png Intelligence4 (talk) 21:51, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
