 * BIG CHANGE! Template:SpellInformation significantly changed, thanks to the creative work of DM78. New Fields: wtype, desc and series. see the template page for full information.
 * See more related changes in the following templates:
 * Template:CastingInformation - added border
 * Template:Spellline - no real changes, but many of you may never have seen this one. NOTE: all spelline templates should be named Template:  to maintain function with Template:SpellInformation
 * New Template! Template:UserTempSig: So everyone can put a cool tag on their templates for all to see!

18. November 2006

 * New sub-Template! Template:LocationInformation: Now used to combine and standardize the appearance of location text, mapref and eq2map uid into a single line in all templates that use them.
 * New Template! Template:Level2Tier: Used in Template:QuestInformation, Template:ItemInformation and Template:EquipInformation to link to categories by Tier.
 * links to Category:Templates and Category:Florence's Templates updated to sort under the template name, rather than under T for Template!
 * New Template! Template:htmlOption will hide options from those pesky If and wikitable structures!
 * New Template! Template:info will link to Category:Articles needing more information (formerly Category:Missing Info). I am updating all templates to use the new tag and cat asap.
 * New Template! Template:wikify Puts a infobox on the article begging for some nice person who understands wikicode to fix this mess. It probably needs a tech writer, too... (adds link to Category:Articles needing wikification)

16. November 2006

 * I have made a few minor and some major changes to some of our templates. As always, all Information templates can be found at Florence's Templates. Help about template usage can be found on the template's page.
 * Template:LnLInformation - series now links to category:series (Book Series)
 * All templates with an image link use iname for alt image name, and idesc for alt text under the image. Also, all template images are thumbnailed.
 * Template:ZoneInformation and Template:ZoneLinks have a new link, Explore. This is activated by a new parameter, discovery, in Template:POIInformation.
 * See Category:AllCats Templates for information on these VERY cool time-saving tools.
 * See Help for New Editors for an article by yours truly aimed at newcomers here with an introduction to the less arcane aspects of wikicode, or Wiki Markup Language (WML)
