Well, the "in-game statistics" definition is actually something which is different compared to the setup made by Popcap on a plant's almanac entry. Example, go to Banana Launcher's almanac entry and see its recharge, which is sluggish. But after you placed a Banana Launcher on any level, you will notice that its recharge only occurs for few seconds. And that's how the "in-game statistics" topic is added, which is supposed to a correction made by Popcap's mistake.

Secondly, I really don't understand that much you talked about "attack trigger location" in the fourth paragraph. By the way, do you mean attack range? I somehow think the words I given is easier for other users to know what does that mean.

When I was a new user on this wiki, I actually didn't know how to add extra infos/content to infoboxes, similar like your condition last time. By the way, I have a question. How do you usually edit? By using VisualEditor or ClassicEditor? I recommend you to edit by using ClassicEditor because it is easier to edit, but only when you are used to it, since the former focuses on words and standard codes. Alternatively, some of the tabbers are made from templates (e.g.{{titlename}}) which is used to transfer infos to reduce the amount of bytes on that respective article.

Unfortunately, I don't know learn to add contents to infoboxes via guide/tutorial, but you can ask users who knows a lot of those such as AWikiBoy521, Phantom of Ra or Jackninja5DipperGravityFalls. Hope they can help you since they are more experienced and knows a lot of codes.

Well, the advises I made are actually outdated, due to not accessible to edit it last time. I'm sure the contents of the text are a bit awkward. But never mind, I've already edited it, so the text might be better now. Sure, I'll accept your friend request, the fact that the texts are a bit weird...

Anyways, let's get back to the topic.

Actually, I'm not quite sure whether if the wiki purely created the phase of "in-game statistics". I assume that the olden users (users who joined this wiki past few years) had find a phase on that text through a vote from a thread.

Secondly, I think your second point (at 7th paragraph) is a bit unnecessary to be added, since the ideas you implemented takes bytes on an article, and the fact that a category for a plant to attack on a certain location was added. The categories are also related to the ideas you gave. For example, Threepeater is one of the plants that attack zombies/tombstones in a multiple direction, as opposed to Melon-pult that attacks them by affecting another zombie/tombstone from another lane it is from.

I kinda feel hesitated on how the responses I replied to you, due to not having much free time I have. Hope the points I gave hint you on that topic bit by bit.

Hi again Nick Archer,

Thanks for your reply.

Can I say that I find the font you post in kind of hard to read? No offense but my old eyes & I find it difficult to make out what it says.

You wrote "a category for a plant to attack on a certain location was added". What is the name of this category please? (And when was it added?)

Sorry, but multiple direction attack and splash damage are different things from triggering. I still think my edits are necessary to clarify which plants will be triggered by zombies or tombstones in neighboring lanes and which won't.

Kind regards, --Philologia (talk) 08:25, March 21, 2017 (UTC)
