Hello, I remember this treason page that was deleted. It was a simple copy and paste from the Game of Thrones Wiki made by a guy that was later banned from here because of his reluctance to format the article according to the style of this Wiki and to add some of his text aside from the copy/paste. Anyway history aside, treason is a vast subject, what do you want this article to be about ? There is already an article for the term turncloak but the subjects are linked. The story of the Two Betrayers would fit nicely too. —[[User:Thomaerys Velaryon|Thomaerys Velaryon]] ([[User talk:Thomaerys Velaryon|talk]]) 21:34, 24 January 2023 (UTC)

:Yeah, I tried to edit it to fit more into this wiki's style, and to remove the GOT-specific situations/names etc. But of course it needs more work still. Treason is different from a turncloak because the latter is switching from one side to another, whereas the former is a legal term -- though you can be both a traitor and a turncloak, depending. I was thinking we ought to check the books for whenever someone is called a traitor, or treason is mentioned. In history, the Greens and the Blacks mutually accusing each other of treason would be a good example. Also Rhaenyra's accusation of Addam Velaryon and the other dragonseeds (after the Two Betrayers), and Corlys's arrest afterwards. The near arrest of Daemon Blackfyre for fomenting rebellion... lots of events to add. (Unfortunately I don't have much time to spare on the wiki today, but I'll definitely be editing it more when I can!) --[[User:Mindset|Mindset]] ([[User talk:Mindset|talk]]) 22:42, 24 January 2023 (UTC)

House Heddle

Thanks for the help with updating House Heddle. I had a hell of a time gathering all the information for the expansion, but I knew I was forgetting/missing quite a lot. Looks like you covered the rest. - SquisherKing (talk) 16:06, 10 October 2015 (CDT)

Very welcome, happy to help. --Mindset (talk) 17:48, 12 October 2015 (CDT)

Family trees

Hello

You stated in a recent edit that using the pagename variable keeps the template in its category alphabetized under "Targaryen tree Viserys" rather than under "Template". However, since the pagename variable has been added to all the family trees, while they are still listed alphabetically, they are now all listed as "Template:nameoffamilytree". Unless I'm reading your 'reason for edit' wrong, that sounds like the opposite of what you were trying to achieve?--Rhaenys Targaryen (talk) 13:32, 23 November 2015 (CST)

Navbox

Hi Mindset. I'm still new to this wiki so sorry if I don't know how things are done yet. Could you tell me why we need two navboxes for each house instead of condensing them to a single navbox with subgroups? On Wikipedia, that option would be preferred. You said it's standard to have two navboxes, but it's only been about three months since that's the case. I'd appreciate some feedback :) Cheers Abjiklam (talk) 12:52, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

I've updated the navbox template to fix some issues. Could you have a look at {{HousesCrownlands}} and tell me if it's okay? The collapsing functions correctly, and all the titles are well centered. Furthermore, the amount of spoilers can be controlled by every page that transcludes the template by setting the state parameter to collapsed or uncollapsed. By default, spoilers are hidden.

Azzak zo Ghazeen?

What's the source? The 'A World of Ice and Fire' App?--Gonzalo (talk) 17:25, 23 June 2016 (UTC)

{{Date}}

Hi Mindset, could you tell me what was the error you saw before your revert on {{Date}}? I didn't notice anything so I'm curious what it might be. Abjiklam (talk) 12:44, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

A "Lua Error somenumber" (sorry I forget which number) in bright red, everywhere the template was used, displayed instead of the date. It was reported to me by another user without a login, and I checked it on mobile and desktop and various skins -- all displayed the error. --Mindset (talk) 23:08, 8 October 2018 (UTC)
Could you have a look at User:Abjiklam/sandbox and tell me if there is any problem? I'd like to bring back the Module because it knows how to deal with BC years for dates and date ranges. Abjiklam (talk) 14:31, 19 October 2018 (UTC)
That seems to be working. But could you copy the Alysanne Targaryen page, using that template? That's the article I definitely recall having Lua errors, though other articles did too.

Aerion by Scherma

Where did you hear that it's not actually a depiction of Aerion? --Potsk (talk) 19:57, 16 December 2021 (UTC)

Did the research myself, will be editing the page with the info momentarily. But you can see the info here for the moment: https://twitter.com/MaloraHightower/status/1471559138085941250 --Mindset (talk) 19:59, 16 December 2021 (UTC)

Treason

Hello, I remember this treason page that was deleted. It was a simple copy and paste from the Game of Thrones Wiki made by a guy that was later banned from here because of his reluctance to format the article according to the style of this Wiki and to add some of his text aside from the copy/paste. Anyway history aside, treason is a vast subject, what do you want this article to be about ? There is already an article for the term turncloak but the subjects are linked. The story of the Two Betrayers would fit nicely too. —Thomaerys Velaryon (talk) 21:34, 24 January 2023 (UTC)

Yeah, I tried to edit it to fit more into this wiki's style, and to remove the GOT-specific situations/names etc. But of course it needs more work still. Treason is different from a turncloak because the latter is switching from one side to another, whereas the former is a legal term -- though you can be both a traitor and a turncloak, depending.
