Talk:Grek

Using {{index}} parameters

Abra Saghast When I use the exact part of Index I lose these three EGIs. What am I doing wrong? PlagueBearer (talk) 05:23, 5 December 2024 (EST)

• Bylan Grek (Lord) Non-player character Living Greyhawk Journal #5 31
• Grek (House of) People Group Clan, Living Greyhawk Journal #1 31
• Grek (Lord) Non-player character Living Greyhawk Journal #1 31

So, it's because computers are stupidly literal. When it says "exact", it means exact. So, the other alphanumeric characters in the entry like, "Lord" or "House of" make it return as a not true parameter, so it discludes them. I added a different type of exclusion for you. You can see it in the page code, but it's{{index|title=TOPICWORD%' AND Topic LIKE '%ANOTHERWORD}} "Topic" can be replaces with "Type" or "Description" from the table, and it can also be used as "NOT LIKE".

House Grek in LGJ

Abra Saghast Went over LGJ #1 and LGJ #5, both were page 31 is just a list of contact names. I couldn't find anything to deal with House Grek. PlagueBearer (talk) 14:20, 13 December 2024 (EST)

Be sure you're looking at the page # on the actual LGJ page, not looking at the PDF counter. I don't know how the PDF pages are numbered, but they often include the cover or ToC as page #s?

There's definitely info there. ... it's in the "Dispatches" articles, and mentions "Lord Grek of House Grek" and "Lord ByJan Grek" under "Urnst, Duchy of".Abra Saghast (talk) 17:31, 13 December 2024 (EST)
