Thanks, somehow the Sorceresses didn't make it through the unit article naming process. Fixed. I see that there are five other units which somehow have unaddressed dupes among them, too...

The site data is in now, so yes, that information will eventually become visible.

Hi Ich !

some errors I have found in the wiki :

on the spells page, the following links to not refer to the spell, but to the summoned unit :
/wiki/Black_Servant
/wiki/Corpse_Candle
/wiki/False_Horror
/wiki/Father_Illearth
/wiki/Harvester_of_Sorrows
/wiki/Iron_Dragon
/wiki/King_of_Banefires
/wiki/Monster_Boar
/wiki/Phantasmal_Warrior
/wiki/Poison_Golem
/wiki/Siege_Golem
/wiki/Watcher
/wiki/Will_o%27_the_Wisp
/wiki/Ziz

One has to add "_(spell)" at the end of the URL in order to go to the spell page.

the page :
/wiki/Summon_Mandaha
raises SQL errors

And finally not really a bug but the pages :
/wiki/Ambush_of_Tigers
/wiki/Contact_Couatl
/wiki/Pack_of_Wolves
Do not directly refer to the spell but offer some nation selection before (this look strange since the spell is the same for all nations + there are some spell with several nations that can be access directly from the spell list).

Same note for :
/wiki/Divine_Blessing
which does not contain any spell information, only the description.


edit : hm I am doing a little tool based on the information from the wiki, I used a script to download spells & items informations (thats how I found those errors : the script did not worked there), I'll share it to you when its done maybe I can use a simpler way to get the data I need.

oups I forgot "Behemot" and "Leviathan" in the first list (those who must have "_(spell)" added).

Yes, I know. Unit articles take precedence over the spells by the same name. I pleaded that the spells would all be named "Contact ..." or "Summon ..." but that wasn't done, so this is WAD. I might add disambiguation links to those articles to link to the appropriate alternate article, though.

Thanks, fixed. The spell had the old pre-3.23 name.

They're not the same spell - they do have different spell IDs. They're just named the same and have the same effect, yes.

You don't need to spider the Wiki, if you want the data that I have in my database then I can share it with you. Just drop me an email, for example through the Wiki, if you're logged in. Although with Semantic MediaWiki it IS possible to get RDF data dumps out of the Wiki, which apparently is a cool feature, according to the database/semanticweb folks.

While reading through the old-age thread, I noticed a "construct lord 1" unit modification effect for the Mason of the Underworld hero. What is this effect?

Also, is it possible to search by unit modifications?

The modifications now link to "Effect" article pages. They're mostly just stubs so far, but they may contain some info about the effect.

I do want to make them into fully fledged semantic properties later. Until then, you can go to the corresponding "Effect:..." article and use "What links here" from the toolbox to show pages that contain this effect.

Thanks! +1 to construct summons apparently.

Hrm...I tried this, and the "What links here" says that no pages link to the article. Perhaps the cache hasn't rebuilt since you updated?

I don't know where you clicked on the "What links here" link, but for the effect you mentioned it links back to two units:

http://dom3.servegame.com/wiki/Speci...Construct_lord

That reminds me, now I'll introduce this to the items, as well.

I clicked on the link to the effect from list of effects in the unit block for the Mason article, and then from the effect page, I clicked on the "What links here" in the left nav toolbox. However, it seems to be working now, so I'm still going to suspect it was cache that hadn't caught up yet. :)

Hmm, what's with the unused items, does this mean there exist items with unused effects/effect combinations or are they just placeholders?
