String Limit

So for certain items, especially if using IconLink for skills/stats, it can return "Error: String exceeds 1,000 character limit". Is there any way to increase the limit by a web-admin/whoever is capable, or is it an innate issue?

    Can you give a specific example where this happens? At least for database stuff there shouldn't be a character limit in place.

        Ah... The Equipment infobox template uses #replace for the description parameter to replace * with * to prevent wiki formatting, and #replace has a 1000 character limit. I've reduced the characters that IconLinks adds by 36, so that should help a bit.

        Stats don't really need IconLink imo because the icon for the stats is not terribly helpful (unlike skill icons) so we can remove those if a description reaches the limit again. If there's an item where even doing that doesn't help, notify me and I'll look into an alternative.

          Thanks! I'll keep the icon for stats in mind too. Hopefully there won't be any more trouble.
