Not drinking in the US. We can vote or get drafted and sent to get shot somewhere, but we can't buy handguns or drink... Not until 21 Most states allow you to drive starting around 15, you just need to take a bunch of tests. Also, happy belated birthday, MR ticket #16!

While Vantha finishes up the new encyclopedia UI, I decided to go over some of our older articles again and do some edits. Its been almost a year and I've "leveled up" several times with my writing/ editing skills. Here's the first PR: https://github.com/TheShadowOfHassen/0-ad-history-encyclopedia-mod/pull/143 in case anyone else wants to look them over The Pr's will probably be shorter, but I might do more than one a week. Also, I'm going to merge these sooner because they aren't new articles.

Indeed!!!

Ah I got you. We'll use your version I probably have been guilty of some more lame writing in the past. I'm planning on going through and editing some of the past articles while @Vantha finishes the new UI. I'll be sure to check for that.

That is much better than what I wrote. Did you write it yourself? If so, I'd gladly use it instead of what I wrote.

A PR for the Ptolmic military colony. https://github.com/TheShadowOfHassen/0-ad-history-encyclopedia-mod/pull/142

Thanks, I'll check them out.

Pr for the colony and the wonder: https://github.com/TheShadowOfHassen/0-ad-history-encyclopedia-mod/pull/140 I'm not happy with the wonder article, I could find almost no information on it. However, that current article will work until I have the means of doing more research. (As in resources not time I need more history books.)

I might rip off most of that paragraph for the article, because that seems like an excellent thing to write about.

The military colony is a seleuclid building. I’d be interested to know the historical background/ what it’s meant to represent.

I have two more questions concerning Seleucid structures: First, what exactly is the wonder? I can't find it with a web search, and second what's the idea behind the military colony? I can't find anything about either of them.

Maybe we should just lock the thread? I mean, no one is using it for what it's supposed to be for.

Yeah, @Vanthais pretty amazing. Even with the ui work he’s still writing articles. For me though the articles are not just educational but also entertainment . Learning is fun.

Pr for Ptolemaic wonder: https://github.com/TheShadowOfHassen/0-ad-history-encyclopedia-mod/pull/137

@Vantha

PR for the general corral and field. These articles can be used for civilizations that we can't find something intresting to say about their agriculture. https://github.com/TheShadowOfHassen/0-ad-history-encyclopedia-mod/pull/135

What is the Ptolmic wonder exactly? When I look it up, I get an alter in Sicily.

I don't get it. Is it because the horseman is hiding?

Ooh that would be nice.

I can't login at all. I get a "sign in prohibited" message.

I think an email is good enough to contact someone. We just need to be certain that mods email offending people using a wildfire game account. The ban makes me un able to see any repository that I hadn't' created, so that's something. See if you can un restrict Poppa Smurf, and then I'd suggest attempting to remove repositories and/or users.

Just to confirm that, can you see Poppa Smurf's secret repo? Another question I have is moderation. Can you put restrictions on a user, or somehow contact them to say they are breaking guidelines?

It is somewhat of a pain, but I can also see why they did it. I use the GitHub mobile app for 2FA it works pretty well. I take it that because you’re trying to get into GitHub you have something to contribute to the encyclopedia?

?!?

So, anything else I need to be testing? I think I've exhausted most of the random things I can think of.
