Caves of Qud Wiki:Admin noticeboard

The Admin noticeboard is one way through which users can notify Administrators of issues needing administrative attention. While users are welcome to directly contact specific administrators (especially if they are seen to be active), posting here can be an easier and quicker way of ensuring that at least one admin will notice an issue and respond to it promptly. Remember to sign (using four tildes: ~~~~) when posting an issue.

Before posting an issue here, please consider the following:

  • This page is for reporting wiki issues. Please post discussions on the talk page.
  • Post only issues that require administrative action, i.e. blocking vandals, protecting pages, restoring deleted pages etc.
  • Do not post deletion requests here. Deletion requests should be made by adding {{delete|reason for deletion request}} to the top of the target page, which will then automatically mark the page as a candidate for deletion.
  • Do not post issues regarding content disputes. Try making a request for comment instead.
  • Mediation requests between users should only be made once a resolution could not be reached between users.
  • For issues regarding the use of this wiki, please see MediaWiki's help center.

In case of vandalism, posting about it here is low priority. Revert it first, anyone can do so. If the vandal created a new page, tag it for deletion. Assume good faith and consider leaving a message on that user's talk page to explain the reason. Post here only if the user has made several disruptive edits and/or persists despite a warning. Always avoid a revert war with the vandal; it is far better to wait until an admin has a chance to intervene. If a user must be reported here, please use {{user}}, preferably as the topic subject/headline.

"FactionFeelings" Cargo Table is missing info

Hi all, not sure the best way to communicate, but I'd like to study faction relationships and I hoped to be able to make a special cargo query to do so. The "faction feelings" page is exactly the format I want but I realize it is missing factions like the Farmers' Guild. Is it possible to update FactionFeelings to be current, or is there another way to run a query that would yield an "edge list" of all faction relationships?

While it appears that some of the faction reputations are out of date, one part of the issue is that the wiki does not "bake" the parent faction relationships into its data. I would recommend you look at how e.g. the Beasts page lists its child factions as inspiration on how to generate a full listing of relationships.
