In the guide Campaign/All-In  Campaign/All-In
the following information about dealling with Kerrigan is proven to be misleading:
"...Thors - Thors have the 250 mm Cannon ability. The 250 mm Cannon stuns Kerrigan -- while stunned she cannot use her nasty special abilities but can still move and attack, making her an easier target..."
I've just completed the last mission it on hard difficulty. Opposite to what the article says, Thor's really cannons had no stunning effect on Kerrigan, she used her special abilities as usual while being bombarded with my Thors. (I have to mention: I did not have Thor's Cannons upgrade.)
She was able both: continue the strike and start the new one while being bombarded.
So, if Thor's Cannons esquire Stunning Ability only after the upgrade, then this has to be mentioned in the article. If Thor's Cannons don't esquire Stunning Ability even after the upgrade, then the citation is just a wrong statement, and has to be removed from the article.
Yeah, well, the bombardment do help to kill Kerrigan, but the player needs to be careful not to loose Thor to the strike of her special abilities.
The author of the article should not post his bare fantasies without checking whether Heroic Units are immune to Stunning.Last edit: 2011-01-29 07:25:18 |

Maybe this was changed in a patch, but I remember doing this mission in 1.0 and she was certainly susceptible to Thor stun. There were lots of threads about how effective it was. Chain stun her with 4-5 Thors and use infantry to finish her off. |

Hey all, I'm having an error logging in to Liquipedia following the random TL explosion. I was editting /MotM_1 and I get the following error. I think it's just the user db thinking I'm still logged in, but I can't do anything about it. Thanks for any assistance in advance!
+ Show Spoiler +Database error
A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was:
(SQL query hidden)
from within function "User::addToDatabase". MySQL returned error "1062: Duplicate entry 'pyrestrike' for key 2 (localhost)". |

| There are errors on the pages for abilities on "Charge" such as the autocasting ability that was changed and also the 250mm Strike Cannons, such as the cost. Other errors as well. |

Actually the 250mm cannons is an ability of the Thor requiring research, not a default weapon property that stuns. |

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. But these kinds of things can be easily fixed by you. You just have to login using your TL.net account and start editing!
If you have any questions you can PM any Liquipedia Staff member or post here!
Happy Editing ^_^ |

Searching Liquipedia is extremely annoying. If you don't spell something exactly right, it won't find what you're looking for. Example: stimpack. I thought it was "stim pack" so when I searched, it only found a few pages that had stimpack misspelled.
Could you possibly improve the search function to help people find what they're looking for if they misspell a word or not phrasing what they're looking for correctly?
Or is there a way to add search keywords or redirects to the intended page? |

I personally use google to search through liquipedia - I suppose that it might be possible to get the search box to redirect the user through google, but the search box that we have on there currently is a mediawiki default, which only searches for strings, and doesn't do any sort of "fuzzy" search (at least not that well).
You can however add redirects, and there are some that exist as far as I remember. |

I know this is obscure, but I found it surprising that the article for SCV doesn't explain the acronym. I had to use *gasp* google to find this out; 'Space Construction Vehicle'.

I have a suggestion for Liquipedia to be carried out by the community; the goal would be to clear up confusion with SC2 lingo, terminology, and semantics. The suggestion is to further develop the Liquipedia Definitions page into a Starcraft 2 "Urban Dictionary" of sorts and either encourage its integration (linking like I'm doing here) into threads or build it into the thread interface. Some ideal consequences would be more regular usage of Liquipedia and less misunderstanding and useless posts.
This occurred to me while reading zatic's thread, [!] Incoming Purge, which lays out ground rules to avoid being smacked with the ban hammer these next two weeks.
Assuming TL isn't plagued by trolls and people with BM who would abuse, the community could enjoy rapid population of this Definitions v2 page with terminology or acronyms like "theorycraft[ing]," "op" "to zerg" etc. "Zerg" already enjoys its own Urban Dictionary page.
This is a fresh idea so thoughts/refinement are welcome! |

I've noticed while editing the past week that there seems to be somewhat of a lack of consistent standards throughout some of the pages, as well that there seems to be a lot of the same information divided across 1-2+ pages. i.e
- qxc's interview layout as compared to Idra's or Huk's. I have no problems going and "standardizing" them though it would be nice to figure out what should be the standard in terms of format, or if I could be known of said format.
- Natural and Natural Expansion.
- Infested Terrans has #use information which is pretty much just replicated/applies the same as on Infested Terran.
I'm fairly new to actively editing a wiki, so if the second two "issues" are standard practice then they can be ignored but I thought I would just bring it up before I start doing anything hasty. |

I dealt with the latter two issues. If you want to standardize the interview formating, you are most welcome to do so! I prefer the qxc method in reverse chronological order (maybe we should even set up a table for that, to make it look more smooth). |

What's already happening is that LP pages show up on the forum search (though not perfectly all the time.) Where would you suggest to integrate it? |

| Hm.. i feel Liquipedia is missing a ton of articles on build orders. Yea SC2 is a very new game but id like an organized reference when i look for things to try out. There are many cool guides in the strategy section which imo does deserve more attention. |

Hi!
Could you include a 'Team strategy' page, the same as you have strategy pages for all the races, also the existing pages could be updated to include newer stategies |

But seriously, the glory of a wiki is that anyone can add whatever they feel is missing or delete whatever they think is excess. |
