 * I appreciate the info on the event but Kixeye often adjusts the xp prior to the actual start.   LOL, they even sometimes change during.  So I will grab all the xp amounts as soon as it goes live.


 * The pics are a little tricky because I have a template that labels them and makes them the correct size to work in the page the way I have it set up. So the best way is for me to take the screen shots or at least who ever does take them they must be 1600x1200 to fit the template.
 * As for why you can not edit that page is because I prob have it locked until the event starts.   REASON: Test server info is not always correct when it goes live and its much much harder to correct wrong info that has been added then to collect the correct info that is missing, if that makes any sense.  I also usually keep a page locked until the full format is layouts then open it to let everyone start filling in the blanks.
 * I have gone  back and forth on if the event pages are for helping players during the event or are they more suited to be just a historical reference.  In past formats there was info that players could use to make decisions during but this latest format really doesn't have that many choices and all the info is in the Tier System box. So I'm not in as much of a hurry to fill in the event pages.

For learning its has been trial and error, at least for me. This can be seen by looking at the evolution of some pages. I seem to be constantly learning or coming up with a better way of doing things and then going back and changing all the pages again. LOL.

But for you I would say use the Sandbox's. Sandbox is just a word for a sub page of any page that is for testing things out then deleting when your done.

Any page can have a sandbox and so can a user. All you need to do is create a page with the same name as the page you want to test with the addition of /Sandbox attached to the page name.

For instance lets say you want to make a sandbox for the Javelin page the you would hit the Contribute button in the upper right part of every page then select Add a Page. Title the page Javelin/Sandbox and create.

Once you have created the sandbox you can go to the Javelin page hit Edit then select the SOURCE tab to get to all the code of the page and just Copy and past the whole thing to your sandbox. This will make a complete copy of the page that you can do anything you want to allowing you to test things out to see how it effects the page without changing anything on the acutal Javelin page. When your done with testing you can just delete the sandbox page.

Again the so called sandbox can really be named anything so if there is already a sandbox for a page you can create another called /Sandbox2 or /Sandbox CrossfirexWC. Just its a good Idea to use the word sandbox so everyone else will know it a page just for testing and is not intended to be kept.

If you want to find help on the web for something or how to do something I usually just go to google and search, for instance if I wanted to look up how to control the font size on a page I would search --- Wikia Font Size Format

But the best way is to see something you want to do and look at how its done in the code. Want to put a table on a page find a table copy it then make edits so it works for your new page. ]

I will try and answer any specific questions if I can so feel free to ask.
