Talk:Ash Sea Chronicle/1st June 2007

Can you change the font colour of the wiki links, or better the entire text? that bright blue is hard on the eyes. --The1exile 17:25, 2 June 2007 (CEST)

It is a bit isn't it :( I was hoping to try and get the same colour as the flag of ASI, but it seems that colour is too....blue..... --Bob 1:27 AM, 2 June 2007 (AEST)

You could use colour tags for the text though. like so:

June 1, 2007 - news in normal colour

June 1, 2007 - Apallingly coloured news here :-)

However changing the colour of the links need CSS and I'm not sure how to render that on the wiki. Well, consider it anyway. --The1exile 23:10, 2 June 2007 (CEST)

News

Doc's Revenge Primus and his army have reached their destination in Belegmon. Perhaps we could write an article about that? --AlexN 19:19, 9 June 2007 (CEST)

I can't believe so many were out of formation. It is a shame that not one, but two marshals, ordered their armies to deploy in incorrect formations. Doc's Revenge

Stargard Sacked Article

I wouldnt quite say sacked. That useually implies that the entire population killed and all buildings burnt to the ground. Infact there has been relitivly few cases of Looting....although they all come from talerium. But Nice article ScottSabin 19:02, 20 June 2007 (CEST)

Sacking does not imply genocide or razing, just looting.

sack 2 (sāk) tr.v. sacked, sack·ing, sacks To rob of goods or valuables, especially after capture.

n.

  1. The looting or pillaging of a captured city or town.
  2. Plunder; loot.

Ah, but it has not yet been captured. They won a battle there, but do not yet occupy Stargard. -- Dabug Habap 23:45, 20 June 2007 (CEST)

Uh, they hold the field, and are having their way with the city. That's what captured means as far as I'm concerned. They haven't conquered it is all. The Vikings sacked Rome but they didn't set up governors for the city. They partied and then left, which is what sacking is. Putting gold in your large sacks and taking it home. Malitia 07:24, 21 June 2007 (CEST)

Sacked may be a contestable term, but I stick by it. Stargard may not have been looted to the ground, but it has been rendered devoid of any real defenders, and is under total control of the invading armies. Sacked seems a fairly appropriate term to me. --Bob 11:43pm, 21 June 2007 (AEST)

Idea for an Interview

Could an interview with King Malice regarding his position on the current Redspan war be arranged? Or could that possibly reveal confidential information? --AlexN 04:31, 21 June 2007 (CEST)

If you would like to do an interview I would be glad to integrate it into the paper :) As for whether or not it would possibly reveal confidential information, you will have to discuss with King Malice as to what he deems confidential heh. I look forward to seeing the interview :) --Bob 11:43pm, 21 June 2007 (AEST)

Layout question

I've recently founded the Asgard Informer, but I can't seem to get my headlines column aligned to the right. Can anyone shed some light on this problem? -Andrasta 15:42, 21 June 2007 (CEST)

I could fix it, but only by simply copying the syntax for my newspaper and using it for yours as well. Obviously using your colours, pictures and stories. Other than that my knowledge of all this syntax stuff is fairly limited, I can only build upon what other people have done :( --Bob 11:56pm, 21 June 2007 (AEST)

What's the problem? Do you want the headlines column to go next to the stories? If so, then you need to do one table with 2 columns, instead of a table for each story. --The1exile 16:02, 21 June 2007 (CEST)
