20:03 * Shara wonders what happened to the wiki "docs team"
20:05 bigfoot547 O_o
20:05 Shara Calinou: http://dev.minetest.net/Privileges Can you do something about this please? It's just messy
20:05 Krock rip
20:05 Shara bigfoot547: are you still working on all those incomplete pages you made?
20:05 bigfoot547 Such as?
20:06 bigfoot547 Ohh, the categories
20:06 Shara Hmm, ones I am looking at were edited but not created by you it seems
20:06 Shara But things like: http://dev.minetest.net/minetest.clear_registered_ores
20:06 Calinou Shara: done
20:07 Shara Where the example is just the syntax pasted in again
20:07 Calinou for those wanting an up-to-date version, it's on https://wiki.minetest.net/Privileges
20:07 Shara Thanks Calinou
20:08 Shara bigfoot547: You just seem to have added examples that were only placeholders, then not actually added examples. It would just be nice to see examples added...
20:08 bigfoot547 but but
20:09 Shara So was curious if it's still planned or if your team gave up
20:09 bigfoot547 Examples where
20:09 Shara Another: http://dev.minetest.net/minetest.clear_registered_decorations
20:09 Shara If the example is the same exact sqame thing as the syntax, it should either be updated, or shouldn't have been added
20:09 bigfoot547 That is how to use it, isn't it? ;)
20:10 Shara So it's pointless
20:10 bigfoot547 I see
20:10 bigfoot547 It does look kinda odd
20:10 Shara This is an example of a good page to compare with: http://dev.minetest.net/minetest.display_chat_message
20:11 Shara The example is simple (but different) and makes use very clear
20:11 bigfoot547 So, since it has no arguments and the example is the same as the syntax, it's not worth having an example?
20:11 Shara Though I do kind of wonder if such simple things need seperate pages, especially the clear messages
20:11 Shara That's what I'd think
20:12 bigfoot547 Ok, I'll look at that
20:12 Shara Thanks
20:12 bigfoot547 I do have some free time rn so I'll populate category:ssm/csm
20:12 Shara Made an update to player page for player:set_attribute, to match the change I made to the lua api doc, so thought I'd check how other things were coming along
20:14 bigfoot547 http://dev.minetest.net/minetest.debug << I changed this somewhay
20:14 bigfoot547 what*
20:15 bigfoot547 Because the syntax area was what the example area should have beem
20:15 Shara :)
20:15 bigfoot547 So now, it's a bit more modeled after the minetest.display_chat_message style
20:16 Shara Ouch, that description isn't too helpful to anyone who isn't technical enough not to need one :)
20:17 bigfoot547 Oops, missed some CSM tags
20:18 bigfoot547 I see, so minetest.debug isn't just minetest.debug(text) :O
20:18 bigfoot547 need to fix that
20:22 Shara I'm trying to convince myself to start taking a more serious look at the lua api doc
20:26 bigfoot547 I updated http://dev.minetest.net/minetest.debug page
20:27 bigfoot547 Shara: ^^^
20:29 Shara Better :)
20:30 bigfoot547 thanks
20:30 bigfoot547 uh oh, RL is interfering
20:30 Shara Same here soon
20:30 bigfoot547 I gots choir practice from 5:00 to TBA :C
20:30 * Shara has food cooking
20:31 bigfoot547 I see
20:31 bigfoot547 I should probably get food....
