Good work, however you forgot to deal with the different colors for each line, in this page.

http://wiki.themanaworld.org/index.php/ ... er_Archive

To correctly see the different developers in this page, you must use "dev1" and "dev2" one after the other, when editing the page.

[tux9th]

Thanks for reminding me.
Yes of course. I haven't done those because I wasn't sure if I'm going to add / edit something or not.

[WildX]

Why is Platyna not listed as a contributor? You should correct that.

[tux9th]

thanks,

Can we please drop the tiger-stripe design and use a grid? As spiffy as it looks, it just makes the page hard to edit.

[tux9th]

Since no one brought forth anymore feedback I edited it and deleted my user pages
if you still feel there are some thing incorrect please change them on the wiki or discuss here or on the wiki discussion page.

We're currently having some discussions about this topic again.
The wiki didn't mention some contributors, devs and GMs.
Please help us to find more people missing in one of these lists:

• Developer Archive
• Game Masters (former ones)
• Contributors (this one lists all kind of contributors, GMs, developers, pixel artists, ...)

We experienced again that people feel hurt by not being at least mentioned there for the work they did and this is of course very reasonable

Well in today's case it was that the list of active developers once got updated without adding the devs that became inactive to the contributors list.
-> It wasn't on purpose

Thanks!

I couldnt see: Frost, cody, Reid, Enchilado, Len, Lizandra, lien ... testers such as Kanezawa...
Also Korcha if his art is used someday. GM list seems correct. Platyna also contributed wit scripting, programming, and art (terranite helmet?)

Nard what did Korcha do for art or content? I don't see anything on the forums attributed to them.

On a related note:

We are currently working towards clearing attribution. Prior devs never made a file or if they did someone deleted it or a number of other incidents happened.
That all in the past now. Going forward TMW needs to have attribution to even be considered a valid project artists will work for.
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FqV ... oBLMu-Y1Z4
Is currently the shared working document. Please PM Wushin or Salmondine with changes or inaccuracies.

Currently all art is accepted under GPLv2+ or cc-sa-3, dual is preferred. These are to protect the artist as well as the projects media assets.
If you submitted art previously we ask you if you could agree to make it a dual license, Gplv2+ and cc-sa-3.

In the spirit there is no difference in the license it's just what the intended medium was, Gpl was designed for code and CC for media.

viewtopic.php?p=133210#p133210 for example.
Here's a possible use:

I colorized it for the forge, var retouched it.

There are other posts by him saying his intentions to contribute (client dialogs...). However, nothing from him was released, and he seem to have been away for a reason I ignore.

Korcha is: memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=1733
edit
Imo, he published enough stuff in this forum to deserve to be called a contributor. Many did less.

[wushin]

Yeah, no. No more custom sprites that can be player base + an action. So not on my watch.

[wushin]

No matter Jenalya informed me they have already contributed.
