Bugs

Want me to add an article for each bug? Each bug would have the one-line summary from nethack.org, and possibly a clarification and a patch that fixes it, if one is available. I can easily add each bug to the wiki; I have bugdb support for Rodney3, so it's just a matter of printing it out in a usable format. Could I get bot status for User:Eidobot? --Eidolos 23:16, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

How about just autogenerating Bugs in NetHack 3.4.3? There are lots of bugs which we know very little about (e.g. C343-85: Sometimes the hero can't move when conscious.) and probably never will. There's also not a lot to say about most of them. For the interesting ones, we can manually create a link from the main list.

(And as for a bot flag, that has to be granted by the central Wikia admins, and isn't terribly useful anyway). --Jayt 00:28, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

Oh well. Everything's coded and ready to rock (just need the bot flag so I don't flood recent changes), let me know if you reconsider! :) --Eidolos 00:42, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

I do think a page listing the bugs would be good! If we did have an article for every bug, we would need an index for them anyway (the alternative is looking through a category of articles titled C343-1, C343-2, C343-3, C343-4, C343-5, C343-6, C343-7,...). --Jayt 17:14, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

Help for modifying source code

Should we perhaps have a section on how to modify the code, like a wikified version of German Martin's guide to NetHack's sources? That one is getting a bit old... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.148.103.224 (talk • contribs) 19 March 2007

Sure, that sounds like a good idea as we have all the sources uploaded here, too. Should be done by someone who knows how to modify the source. --ZeroOne 18:22, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

I can do some parts of it (for example) when I have some time, but I'm not sure how to organize/name the articles. (That unsigned idea above was mine anyway) --Paxed 21:57, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
