There are problems with the wiki page which is supposed to show you how to build your own for your character, I will be adding to here the changes that have to be made in subsequent posts as I work them out. FM/LCR BARman/Kaph 3-3/Wing 1/mSSD Atrus/1 Fleet/VEN/VE/(=A=) |

Here is the code that is there:
==Service History ==
=== Ranks ===
{| cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" border="1"
! Ranks !! Start !! Until !! Reason for Promotion
|-
|[[Naval Ranks#Enlisted Ranks|Leading Crewman]] || May 1, 2006 || May 23, 2006 || For warning the TO that “the cows are escaping from the barn”
|}
=== Positions === {| cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" border="1"
|+Joined Vast Empire Navy - April 30, 2006
! Positions !! Start !! Until !! Reason for Change
|-
|[[Kaph Squadron]] - [[Naval Positions#Flight Member|Flight Member]] - Kaph 2 || June 3, 2006 || August 16, 2006 || N/A
|}
===Awards===
{| cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" border="1"
!Award !! Date !! Full Award Name !! Reason for Award
|-
|[[Naval Awards|=A=]] || June 2, 2006 || Aviator's Award || Passed Aviator's Exam
|-
|[[Naval Awards#Merit Cross First Class|[MC1]]] || June 26, 2006 || Merit Cross, 1st Class || Great posting and leading Kaph through hard times during the wing story
|}
here are changes to be made:
1. Under the section called "Positions" the needs to be removed, 1 to many must have been placed here, and this one makes it so that none of the text after it is in proper format.
2. Need to hit enter and place the section after "===Positions===" on a new line, otherwise the code still won't take effect.
3. Under the section "===Awards===" the needs to be moved to the end of =A=, instead of being after "Passed Aviator's Exam"
That should fix the text so it works when the trainee attempts to use it one their own. FM/LCR BARman/Kaph 3-3/Wing 1/mSSD Atrus/1 Fleet/VEN/VE/(=A=) [This message has been edited by BARman (edited October 10, 2008 2:09:08 PM)] |

Well whether or not it worked fine for you, it did not work correctly for me, which means there is a problem somewhere. Unless it just dislikes me, *shrugs* which given how my day has gone, is not to far out of the realm of possibility. FM/LCR BARman/Kaph 3-3/Wing 1/mSSD Atrus/1 Fleet/VEN/VE/(=A=) |

Okay, I dont really mind how things work, but seriously, Barman relax, you dont have to talk so formal with us and stuff^^ I dunno, it kinda creates a very detached barrier.
Anycase, goodluck with the rest of your day  TRN/ADT_Aeos/Training 1-1/Lopen/VEDJ/VE2LT_Aeos/[LoR][ES2C][CoR][CoS][SC][EW:1][RCoD][GRoM][GRP] CPO_Aeos/(=*A*=)][MC1](=*SA*=) -Retired |

I'm usually this way for a little bit until I get to know the people who I am talking to. I don't know who most of you are, and I'm also learning my way around the VEN, so I'm careful with my initial posts. FM/LCR BARman/Kaph 3-3/Wing 1/mSSD Atrus/1 Fleet/VEN/VE/(=A=) |

Hmm
I don't remember having a problem with the coding when I did my wiki pages, but that doesn't mean there weren't any. It just means that I and my less-than-amazing technical skills failed to recognize them as errors  Liam Hayes Platoon Sergeant (PSG) Assistant Squad Leader, Iron Horse Squad Initiate, Dark Jedi Order   _____________________ ASL/PSG Hayes/1SQD/1PLT/1COM/1BAT/1RGT/Tadath/VEA/VE |

It may have been a problem with the browser which I am using also, I use Firefox and Google Chrome, and that may have something to do with it, I really don't care, I got it to work for me, which is all that matters, just wanted to give a heads up that it did not work correctly for one person. At the end of the day it really don't matter a deathstick to me one way or the other. FM/LCR BARman/Kaph 3-3/Wing 1/mSSD Atrus/1 Fleet/VEN/VE/(=A=) |

That code has been out-dated for a while now, as there are several templates in place that make inputting the whole string a bit useless.
I tried to update it a while ago, but i didn't know enough about the code to changes things effectively. It's quite possible i messed something up. Go to an earlier version of that page, and then try the code, see if it works.
Apart from that, feel free to update it yourself. Just make sure it is in line with everything.
