Ozelot's BR should be 9.3 (RB)

Hello,

I do not know how to edit the specs card. Maybe you could help me out by editing the specs or telling me how to do it? The Ozelot's BR for realistic battles has changed from 9.0 to 9.3 recently (along the Wiesel 1A2). --fraggable (talk) 16:44, 4 December 2021‎ (UTC)

Hello. The spec cards are uneditable. Battle ratings will be automatically updated shortly. Please be patient as it may take a few days to roll out. --Inceptor57 (talk) 13:05, 5 December 2021 (UTC)

Economy stats

Hello,

I've got a question about vehicle stats (be it price or economy): where does the wiki get the data from? For example the economy: there is the template Specs-Economy, which then uses #unit:#var:me to get the data from. But I do not get how this exactly works and where that data is ultimately stored. My guess unit:var:me means that the unit is variable and the term "me" is refererring to the page name.

I am considering making a side project for WT which would require getting all SL/RP/GE costs for all vehicles ... and typing that by hand is a bit much for ~ 2,000 vehicles, especially if one would have to redo this everytime Gaijin makes a major update or tweaks the economy. So I was wondering is there is here somewhere a comprehensive list of this, or at least if I would be able to compile one if I'd understand how this works. -- Kan0nenfutter (talk) 20:27, 29 October 2022 (UTC)

About the 2S38 hatches & question

Hello ! First of all, thanks for correcting and approving some of my edits, I'm fairly new and still need some practice. About the 2S38 hatches, you modified my edit from "18 mm + 20 mm" to "18 mm or 20 mm", which I think is incorrect; in the armor indicator you can see first an 18mm layer of anti-radiation liner, and then 20mm of ABT-102 alloy under it.

Also, a user by the name of Larsofd completely deleted the edits I had made on the AMX-32 (105), concerning it's armour and machine guns. Did I do something wrong ? By looking at it's contributions, it's the only one he has ever made, so could you look into it please? Thanks. -- T_rexflameche (talk) 19:30, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

Greetings. Yes, you are correct about the 2S38 hatches. My mistake. One of my colleagues have made the corrections. Regarding the AMX-32 (105) edits, I believe it is simply a quirk of the wiki system if a user edits an older revision of the page. So the user may have unknowingly saved their edits onto an older page revision, which would have overridden the current page revision that your edit made. Otherwise from the looks of it, there does not appear to be anything inherently wrong with your edits. --Inceptor57 (talk) 16:38, 29 January 2023 (UTC)

Ammo Layouts

Hi there. I wish I'd found your "How to add Ammo Rack information to vehicle pages" page before now. It's hard to get started as an editor here. Documentation exists but is fragmented and inconsistent, and there's no real feedback on the edits.

I've now added ammo info for two vehicles, the SARC Mk IV and the Turán I. You mention that the ammo rack images should be categorized, but I'm not quite clear on how to do that in the editor. DerAlte18211 (talk) 04:17, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
