Template errors

What's up with the species' templates? I thought they were already modified to better reflect each enemy race type? --Δαντε τηε Γηοστ ^{Ι ωονδερ ιφ Ικορα γιϝες ηυγς το Γηοστσ. Ηεη... ανψωαψς, νιξε ωορκ. Τηις ις ωηατ Ι υσεδ.} 15:17, 3 February 2017 (EST)

They were all displaying like this, which was caused by spaces and capitalized letters in some of the fields (apparently can't use those). I also further modified them to each have a distinct colour depending on what race the article is.--Spartacus ^{Talk • Contribs} 19:42, 3 February 2017 (EST)

Though I am not as versed in template formatting as you Spartacus, from what little I know, words can be capital so long as everything is the same i.e every word where vex appears lower case in the template parameters must be the same. If even one letter is off, the whole template will not work. --

I'm not completely sure they work but I changed it to all lowercase to maintain consistency, since jumping between can get confusing and as you said, cause errors.--Spartacus ^{Talk • Contribs} 20:03, 3 February 2017 (EST)

(y) You know what you are talking about. --

Stepping aside

Hey there. I know it wasn't too long ago that I returned to Destinypedia and was re-awarded admin status, but I'm afraid I have to give up administratorship once again. I've realized that my participation here has tapered off over the last few weeks, and as that situation is unlikely to change anytime in the near future, I had to reevaluate my ability to fulfill an admin's duties and whether I was deserving of the role.

Among the factors that led me to this decision, two stand above the rest. First, although I had thought my work schedule would be much more flexible now compared to last year, the opposite has happened and I will likely be inundated for several months. Second, I find I've become disenchanted with the Destiny series as a whole due to certain design and marketing decisions made by Bungie with regard to Destiny 2; I just can't find as much reason to continue playing Destiny 2 as I could its predecessor, and even the recent release of DLC for the game has failed to reignite my interest. So, strapped for free time and unmotivated to play the game or edit Destinypedia as I once was, I think it's for the best that I relinquish admin status.

I want to thank you for allowing me the privilege of being an admin at Destinypedia while I was here, and I wish you, Arcmind, Dante, and Primus the best. MorningWalker (talk) 20:31, 27 December 2017 (EST)
