Word order matters (e.g. skill interrupt will give different results than interrupt skill)
A comma separated list of words or phrases will select skills who's name is a partial or complete match to each word or phrase (e.g. animal, melandru will return 4 Chapter 1 skills: Melandru's Assault, Revive Animal, Melandru's Arrows, and Melandru's Resilience)

Ideal for users with very slow connections

Ideal for users with average connections
Large
Everything visible
Recommended only to users with high speed connections

If there are more than 300 results on a medium page or 200 results on a large page, it will automatically force the page to the next smallest setting to conserve bandwidth. Large will go to medium; medium will go to small.

Adding & Editing

Description

Descriptions are magical. Numeric ranges will automatically become highlighted when displayed. For calculations to work properly, the range must go from 0 to 15 in attribute points. This is the range ArenaNet uses in patch notes for skill balance changes.

Skill Locations

Note: Skills that are unlocked for that account will appear as purchasable from every trainer. Only list locations where that skill can be purchased if the skill is not unlocked.

All skill locations should be a comma separated list. Purchase locations should be city name only. Quests should be in this format: Quest Name - Zone. Capture locations should be in this format: Boss Name - Zone. There are exceptions.

Pre-searing
All skill quests found in Pre-searing should be marked with this as the zone
Once Tyrian-born characters enter the Academy, they cannot return to this area
Shing Jea Monastery
All skill quests found in Chapter 2 should be marked with this zone
Only Canthan-born characters can access these quests
