::Thanks! The more I look at it, the more I'm inclined towards the idea of a [[Player Menu]] article. I could write up a good intro right now, starting with the clarifications you just gave me. It would need an image - of the default display when it pops up. But that's essentially the "Inventory Screen" section of [[Inventory]] right now, which needs updating anyway. Splitting off that part of Inventory would lead to two short articles, true, but it would also make distinct the shift between global and local foci of topics and emphasize where all the many tab articles are centered. Just a thought. [[User:Giles|Giles]] ([[User talk:Giles|talk]]) 18:24, 29 March 2024 (UTC)

::Second thought, in place of the original above. Perhaps [[Player Menu]] could be a name redirect in the article space - to [[Inventory]]. Inventory is the way it pops up, and separate sections could be devoted to the two purposes, with the need for only one image to oversee all, and wording to avoid duplications.

== Redirects ==
 +
 +
I've been adding some redirects to the wiki and you've been deleting them. Personally, I think the redirects provide a tremendous amount of value. However, since you've been deleting them, presumably you think they are just clutter and/or not necessary. Would you allow me to possibly convince you otherwise? As a basic example, take the case of "book seller". If I type that into the wiki, it currently [https://imgur.com/a/fDK1KVo looks like this], giving 0 results and giving the appearance that such a thing does not exist on the wiki at all. However, of course that is a lie, because the page "Bookseller" exists. This is confusing because in normal English, "book seller" is always separated as two words. The only reason that it is different on the wiki is because ConcernedApe made a typo / grammatical error when implementing it into the game, and the wiki explicitly follows the in-game conventions.
 +
 +
You could imagine a scenario with a user being something along the lines of: "Oh, the Book Seller is in town today. I remember from last time that they sell rare books, but I don't remember anymore which specific ones that are sold. No problem, let me look that up on the wiki! [types in "book seller", gets no results]. What the heck? I guess the wiki doesn't have any information on the book seller yet, so let me just do a Google search for "stardew book seller" and see what I can find. [does Google search] Wait a second, the Google search just pointed me back to the wiki. Oh, I see the problem now, bookseller is one word on the wiki. That's really annoying!"
 +
 +
We can fix up this user story with a redirect. By making "book seller" redirect to "bookseller", we can plant users exactly where they expect to be with 0 friction. Perhaps we could call these type of redirects "search redirects", which have the explicit goal of saving the user time or preventing a second click and/or a second google search. Unfortunately, I know that such "search redirects" will show up in the MediaWiki admin tools as "orphaned pages" that don't link anywhere else, which will make them show up alongside other legitimate pages that do need to be deleted. However, I think that search redirects provide so much value that they should be excepted. Please consider this request. --[[User:Zamiel|Zamiel]] ([[User talk:Zamiel|talk]]) 10:14, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
 +
 +
: Hi, to your specific mention of "Bookseller" - the word ''does'' exist in English; it is a noun that is defined as the proprietor of a bookstore or one who sells books. (https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/bookseller) ConcernedApe did NOT make a typo or grammatical error.
 +
 +
:So, while redirects might be useful in some circumstances, for this one, it is moot. [[User:Rogue.toast|Rogue.toast]] ([[User talk:Rogue.toast|talk]]) 21:01, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
 +
:: My inquiry is not just about bookseller. It is about "search redirects" more generally. Search redirects provide value regardless of whether or not the word exists in a dictionary. I could come up with some equally compelling example that does not exist in the dictionary. e.g. Joja Mart --> JojaMart --[[User:Zamiel|Zamiel]] ([[User talk:Zamiel|talk]]) 23:48, 3 April 2024 (UTC)

== Version History edit revert ==
 +
 +
I would like to ask why [[Special:Permalink/164004|my edit]] on the Version History page was reverted. I feel like I wasn't doing anything wrong, my edit was constructive (I added a ton of links that readers can immediately visit in order to read more info on things mentioned in the changelog), and I even removed an inaccurate edit (eg. [[Meowmere]] is not mentioned anywhere on the official changelog because it is secret, but it is listed on the wiki's changelog). [[User:Anzasquiddles|Anzasquiddles]] ([[User talk:Anzasquiddles|talk]]) 18:30, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
 +
:Removing info, even if you feel it's a secret, is cause for reverting it. You also linked to a lot of redirects instead of main links. I don't have time to pick through each sentence with the influx of edits, and trying to prepare updated content offline, so the entire edit got reverted.

== Scythe ==
 +
 +
Hey there, on my last edit I just removed the section that stated, "If it is lost (by dying in the Mines, for example), a new one should spawn the next morning, either next to the bed or in the refrigerator." which I mentioned in my edit history. In the 1.6 update ConcernedApe fixed this issue, so that none of the scythes can no longer be lost.
 +
 +
Ps. I understand that you don't want 1 page for all the scythes, but I thought it might be better to just update the pages individually. For example the Iridium Scythe page does not state that with it "upgrade" (obtaining it) its chance of chance of adding a piece of hay to the silo, when cutting grass goes from 75% to 100%. (when compared gold scythe to iridium) I was just gonna focus on changes like that. To make sure all the information is updated and relevant.

== [[Large Log]]s ==
 +

In the '''[[Large Stump]]''' page, it has a list of how many swings it takes with an [[Axes|axe]] to chop into [[hardwood]], but the '''[[Large Log]]''' page does not have this, this needs to be added, I marked the page as a stub because of this.

== Error 503 ==
 +
 +
Hello [[User:Margotbean|Margotbean]], for some reason the Wiki has the Error 503 when loading pages, sometimes the Wiki works fine, but sometimes pages just never load or they do load but look corrupted. Hopefully this gets fixed later. [[User:9000|9000]] ([[User talk:9000|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/9000|contributions]]) 23:44, 7 April 2024 (UTC)

== Sam Beach Portraits ==
 +
 +
Hi, I went into the game code and noticed that there are 10 beach portraits for Sam in the game code but there are only 3 shown on the wiki page. I have posted a stub on the [[Sam#Portraits|portraits]] section of [[Sam]]'s page. My only question is, is there a good reason for these 7 beach portraits to be missing, or is it just a mistake on the wiki?

== Famous Painter Lupini Paintings Order on Night Market Page ==
 +
 +
Margotbean, I noticed you reverted my edit on the [[Night Market]] page where I ordered the Night Market paintings by the order they appear in game. I just wondered why you did this because it is confusing for the average player who is trying to work out which order the paintings appear in without having to do lots of ordering in their head.

== GiftHeader displays outdated info ==
 +
 +
hi boss<br>as of 1.6, several villagers have new dialogue when given gifts on their birthday (Jas, Vincent, Penny, Shane, Lewis...). the GiftHeader tag does not account for this and still shows the old generic dialogue. i assumed the most elegant solution was to simply remove the GiftHeader tag and manually write in the info it displays, including the new dialogue, but I've been shouted at for attempting this. will GiftHeader be updated to account for the new dialogue?
 +
 +
:Hello DrDean (remember to sign posts with 4 tiles, plz!), sorry for the shouty caps. The answer to your question really depends on whether or not someone wants to update the template in all 12 languages. Today is the first day I'm able to access the wiki without errors since v1.6 released, so I can tentatively start to make template changes, but there are several ('''several''') changes to be made. So, do you know what a switch/case is? Do you have any interest in changing the template in all 12 languages? [[User:Margotbean|margotbean]] ([[User talk:Margotbean|talk]]) 20:06, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
 +
 +
::it's alright, i understand the frustration. this is my point though - it seems like more hassle than it's worth to update the template to account for every edge case. unfortunately i'm monolingual and have a very loose understanding of wiki formatting so i won't be much help with it. perhaps the part of GiftHeader that contains birthday dialogue could be removed, and each villager's page could have their respective birthday dialogue written in manually? so it would look like <nowiki>==Gifts==, then {{GiftHeader}}, then 'For loved or liked gifts, Jas will say...' etc.</nowiki> i would happily do this for the English wiki but unfortunately i won't be much help for any of the translations.

== Couple Elixirs vs Two Elixirs ==
 +
 +
Hello! I just realized that there are two pages and sets of images for the same furniture object. I think the confusion comes from the difference in item ID (Couple Elixirs) vs displayed name (Two Elixirs). I wasn't sure which page and image file to mark for deletion, so I just wanted to let you know in case you want to move things around.

== Trying to add silver quality to crab items in Grange Fair==

Hi, I'm trying to add the silver quality to crab pot items without adding any other quality on the [[Stardew_Valley_Fair#categories]] section, but the row ends up being blank in preview. I've tried turning this:
 +
''Grangeptsrow|Crab|Crab|100|-4|qualities=0'' into this: ''Grangeptsrow|Crab|Crab|100|-4|qualities=0,1'' , but it doesn't work. I noticed that you are the one who created the grangeptsrow template, so maybe you know why it isn't working.--[[User:Rayram|Rayram]] ([[User talk:Rayram|talk]]) 08:31, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

== Flooring Images and Icons ==
 +
 +
Hey, thought I should let you know that you missed the majority of new Flooring options added in 1.6. 32 regular, numbered flooring options were added in 1.6 (in "walls_and_floors.xnb"), in addition to the 9 "MoreFloors:X" floors. I'd address the issue myself, but I'm not sure exactly how you were extracting item icons from the game, given I was unable to find anything other the actual floor textures. These 32 numbered floors are all available from the regular catalogue, between (FL)55 (the pink love hearts one, old highest index floor) and MoreFloors:0 (the new dark wood planks). This also messes up the indexing for floor images, which might require admin powers to fix. [[User:Sicarious|Sicarious]] ([[User talk:Sicarious|talk]]) 13:43, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
