| It has been recently brought up again that we should move from tango icons to ingame ones, this time not for profession icons but for events. I personally agree that we should use ingame assets when possible, but we need to take into question consistency across formats, templates, and pages. As visible from the See also link, the previous discussion took over a year to reach a consensus and thus it's not just a simple matter of "we should do it." Looking at the [[Template:Event icon]] page, it does seem that for most of the event icons we already use the non-tango versions as the default ones. Thus, in my opinion, making the ingame icons the default ones for the rest would help with consistency and better reflect the game. [[User:Sime|~Sime]] 00:46, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

| : When clear enough to use, mirroring the in-game appearance sounds good to me. Could we bot edit places where they are not used? [[User:Adeira Tasharo|Adeira Tasharo]] ([[User talk:Adeira Tasharo|talk]]) 00:54, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

| :: My take is same as before that we should be using more of the actual icons where applicable. I did previously update and change many of those icons [[Special:Diff/2036401/2234683|back in 2021]] too before it got reverted. I'd also like to bring up the {{tl|Dialogue icon}} template and [https://wiki.guildwars2.com/index.php?title=User:Sunlion/sandbox2&oldid=2714249 this example] for it. --[[User:Dak393|Dak393]] ([[User talk:Dak393|talk]]) 02:11, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
| |
| ::: Concur, will also bring up icons used by {{tl|Tango icon sizes}} should be using ingame variants. --[[User:ItVictor|ItVictor]] ([[User talk:ItVictor|talk]]) 02:27, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

| :::: Tagging [[User:Caeldom]], since their edits is what prompted this discussion. [[User:Sime|~Sime]] 12:53, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

| :::::I prefer the tango icons. They're much clearer/visually cleaner to read than the in game icons which were made to be readable in game and not so much for a wiki heh. - [[User talk:Doodleplex|<span style="color:#ff4000"><b>D</b>o</span><span style="color:#ff8000"><sub><b>o</b></sub>d</span><span style="color:#ffcc00"><i>l</i>e</span><span style="color:#5A0">p<i>l</i></span><span style="color:#0099cc"><b>e</b>x</span>]] 14:43, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

| :Shrinking the in-game icons probably not the answer, the tango icons look better in 20px size. but I would love to see some adjustments: recolor to match the in-game palate, redesign some of them (the boss icon come to mind), and make them complete—this is the real issue for tango icons, and we only have 8 of them in orange variant only. --[[User:Tery3065|<span style="color:#608f64;"><span style="font-size:20px;">'''𝙏'''</span>ᴇʀʏ</span>]] 18:04, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

| ::Yep that's one of the issues, some of the icons are tango and many are ingame, so we should try to achieve consistency in one way or the other. [[User:Sime|~Sime]] 19:27, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
| |
| ::: It's also worth a mention that we can crop many of thee icons like we've done in the past. Take this one for example [[File:Event shield (tango icon).png|20x20px]][[File:Event shield (map icon).png|20x20px]][[File:Event shield (overhead icon).png|20x20px]][[File:User Dak393 Event shield (map icon).png|20x20px]] Same as above but cropped in game for last icon. --[[User:Dak393|Dak393]] ([[User talk:Dak393|talk]]) 20:41, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
| |
| :::: I'd say that the tango icons for the new event indicators should be made if we're really going to decide on one or the other. If noone's capable and/or willing to make them then my vote goes to in-game icons by default. [[User:Myriada|Myriada]] ([[User talk:Myriada|talk]]) 14:52, 22 February 2025 (UTC)
| |
| ::::: Yeah the cropped ingame icon looks pretty good, Dak. I think if we crop the other ingame icons for the resolutions we are using, that should somewhat solve the issues with the readibility/blurriness. [[User:Sime|~Sime]] 19:58, 6 March 2025 (UTC)

| == (Example): Emboldened Mode Incorrect Wing ==
| |
| | |
| Hi,
| |
| | |
| I don't know if this is the right place to post this or not, but the emboldened mode on the wiki doesn't match the wing that is currently emboldened in the game. It has been this way since the update launched.
| |
| : Thanks for letting us know. Both [[Emboldened]] and [[Call of the Mists]] are updated to reflect current ingame status. [[User:Asuaka|— Asuaka]] ([[User talk:Asuaka|talk]]) 21:56, 17 March 2025 (UTC)

| == (Example): Wiki Not Showing in Google Search Results ==
| |
| | |
| When I search using Google Chrome, regular wiki pages have stopped showing as top results. Instead, I get the Talk page, the wrong page, or a different website entirely as my first page results. I'm wondering if the wiki has an indexing problem. This only started happening in the last few days. Sorry if this is the wrong place to report this. (And sorry if it's just me!)

| :Hi Spiral, thank you for bringing this topic up. It is unfortunately not just you that is experiencing this issue regarding search engines and the wiki. The de-ranking and lack of indexing are consequences of AI bots scraping the wiki for data and effectively DDoSing it. Efforts are being made to limit the impact they're having on the wiki and the Guild Wars 2 community, but the tools available are either limited or have side effects like you have noticed.
| |
| :We're truly sorry that this is happening, and hopefully a solution can be found. [[User:Greener|Greener]] ([[User talk:Greener|talk]]) 05:30, 26 March 2025 (UTC)
