i like the idea of showing who made the compound or confirmed the compound

adding it to tooltip is good idea like this for example
the person who confirm can be shown in brackets

Ancient Boots
Type: Armor
Class/Base: Copper
Added by(confirmed by) : someuser (someuser)
Rank: 15
Level: 30
Wear: Shoes
DEF: +8
MDF: +7

one more thing is, items have a description or comment field, i think it would be useful for compounds also to have a comment field, in this comment field the guy who add compound can add somethings like this
"Its tested at alchemy lvl 6", or "this is tested" or like "its rare to get this compound" or like "u can use same formula with junior alchemy to get this"...... such comments can be very useful i think

=================================================
scott how about this method to make sure all or large number of compounds cannot be deleted by someone

=>the guy who make a compound can delete it
=>but if that guy delete the compound it only hides the compound from website to viewers
=>but actually the compound is still in internal database but it is tagged or marked as deleted
=>hence scott can easily search internal database like very weekend (or when ur free lol xD) to compounds which are tagged or marked as deleted
then u can delete those compounds from internal database if they are fake,
if not fake then easily u can check off delete mark from item hence it'll be shown in website again

=> this way others cant actually delete things they add from database, but they can only "virtually delete" from our view or from website

that's a good idea dotnet. i just updated the items, compounds, and recycles page to show the creator/last editor. i also added the rank difference on the compounds page so you can judge how hard the compound might be if it has something like +4.

i'll get around to changing it so users can edit or delete (hide from other's view like you mentioned) but i have to think for a bit how the best way to implement this is.

as for the tooltip, i'll work on redoing it...since right now it's calling a generic function with only information on the item, not the compound (so i can't show compound info the way it's setup now). but...now that i think about it, i think maybe we want to see who created/edited the item in the main view so people don't have to mouse over every one to see.
