To answer your query regarding the Archer Skill Table:

The first two skills categorized by a template, which allows any user to fill it in with the data, without the extraneous programming that would go into it. It also allows uniformity of the data, rather than haphazard individual schemes.

If you look at the first lines of the Aimed Shot template:

==Aimed Shot==
{{Skill
|Name=Aimed Shot
|Img=[[Image:Skill-Archer_Aimed_Shot.gif]]
|Desc=A steady attack with deadly aim.
|Equip=Weapon
|Target=Enemy

The two equal signs "==" denotes bold heading emphasis. These should always come with any heading.

To start the template, you use twin curly brackets {{. Type skill, and begin a new line. The vertical bar | begins a new command, and so on. The template is really not as complicated as it appears; on the contrary, it makes creating content for the wiki much easier. Otherwise, you would have to enter the following to create a similar table:

{| width="100%" border="1" cellpadding="4" style="text-align: center; font-size: 12px; border-collapse: collapse; border: 2px solid;"
|- style="text-align: center; font-weight: bold; background-color: #FDF5E6;"

Pretty complicated, no?
