BQL Redirect
Hey Coobra. I was wondering why BQL as a redirect to Blood-Queen Lana'thel was deleted. I've seen a few people use this acronym and don't quite see why it was removed. Thanks. Techhead7890 (talk) 22:20, July 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * To may knowledge we try not to give abbreviation redirects to bosses, just places. 22:31, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

Weird
When I went to the Genn Greymane page all I was able to see was the "Facts about Genn Greymane" from the RDF feed and I was only able to view the article in question after using the article history. Do you have any idea or clue on what may have caused this? --Sairez (talk) 12:26, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hmm, probably the new Semantic MediaWiki we're using has done something. 22:23, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

1920 x 1080 Images
All of the images I upload were originally 1920 x 1080, but I saved them to 1000 x whatever because they load faster in the popup. Honestly 1920 x 1080 take forever to load in popups. Is there any policy in place to limit the dimension sizes of uploaded images? (Reference: http://www.wowpedia.org/File:Stonemaul_Hold.jpg) Korval (talk) 22:01, August 1, 2010 (UTC)


 * There is an image guideline, that you can find at WP:IMG under Resolution, that asks users to try and keep images to about 1280x960 as a reasonable upper size limit... but it's not required. 22:28, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

Images
Coobra, images have lately been taking forever to load. Sometimes they don't even load at all. I also try and upload images and images are corrupted. My connection and the images are fine. Please advise. This is happening a lot now. Korval (talk) 03:18, August 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * I've noticed, it's a wiki thing. I think it was something to do with the conversation to a new something or other, I haven't looked at any of the details. 03:28, August 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * The problem is coming from images2.wikia.nocookie.net. I don't know if this is your area but is there any way to find out from the Wikia people what's going on? Korval (talk) 18:13, August 4, 2010 (UTC)

 * On the righthand side of the screen is a button that says "Add Game." Honestly, did you even LOOK before you decided to ask here? -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 00:29, August 6, 2010 (UTC)

It didn't work, it says "A problem has Occurred" i got the invite from an in-game mail by Blizzard. Hallowseve15 (talk) 00:37, August 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Are you sure it came from Blizzard? 00:50, August 6, 2010 (UTC)

 * Click on My Account on top of the Battle.net homepage. You should see the Cataclysm beta client download. If you don't see it, change your account password immediately. Korval (talk) 15:41, August 6, 2010 (UTC)

FYI: If Blizzard gives you beta access, they will flag your account in lieu of sending you a beta key. Beta keys are for third parties like Curse and WoWI. I can't seem to find the source on this, but I know I saw it somewhere, though. — EGingell (T|C|F)  17:19, August 6, 2010 (UTC)

 * Hmm... interesting question... But I take a picture of myself and photoshop it into a screenshot... just kidding LOL.... but actually there was something that changed the skins of characters that were just in the underwear to look nude. I do believe Bliz has found a way to prevent that, though I don't really know. 00:27, August 7, 2010 (UTC)


 * hmm okay... Im gonna go look at the dates of those vids and see if theychanged it or not.... thx Westin318 (talk) 00:59, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

just checked them.... most of them were 1-3 years ago but one of them was only 6 months.... i dont suppose that was enough time to change it? Westin318 (talk) 01:02, August 7, 2010 (UTC)


 * You can always google for it. 01:04, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

Rommath in Cataclysm
There's a soundfile which was implemented in one of the Cataclysm beta builds, which reveals Rommath to be working for the Twilight Hammer. Would that be considered datamined or something? I tried to add it to Rommath's page, but someone else edited it out. May I have to wait for more proof? Epsi-spoon (talk) 16:28, August 10, 2010 (UTC)


 * If you cannot see him saying this quote in-game, then it is datamined.

elink to www.AHseller.com/Herbalism
Hi Cobra,

You’ve removed my external link from Herbalism page and suggested to move it to guides section:

>	"Undo revision 2353603 by […Andrewginda…] You can link your stuff on guides, but not here"

Thanks for your suggestion, but I don’t think www.AHseller.com/Herbalism fits well into leveling guides page. This is not really a leveling guide and it’s not even a guide at all. www.AHseller.com/Herbalism is online database that scans AH on regular basic and helps visitors to find best herbs for making gold. This is database that helps to make gold, but it’s not a guide. If there is a market fluctuation (for example because of a new patch) the whole www.AHseller.com/Herbalism page will change reflecting new prices, new volume and new top herbs for making gold. AHseller is totally free resource, has minimal ads and provides data on making gold that is not available anywhere.

AHseller provides additional information about Herbalism topic, but does not repeat information already available on the wiki page. Making gold is a big part of WoW game and AHseller provides valuable information for WoWWiki users complimenting Herbalism page. It is directly related to the article on the wiki page. Wowpedia:External links policy specifically recommends to place database sites into elinks on the corresponding page because of a dynamic nature of the content.

It seems to me that I’m following external links policy, I obey elinks rules and I’m adding valuable addition to the topic described on the page.

Thanks for reading my message. Please let me know your recommendation if Herbalism is appropriate place for elink to www.AHseller.com/Herbalism

18:46, August 12, 2010


 * Sounds like a guide to making money to me, but /shrug... add it back if you like. Don't use me as any type of reference saying "Coobra said it was ok" though, cause I'm not ok with it, but I won't remove it again either. 23:04, August 12, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks for taking a look. Based on this I'll revert both of your undos (Mining is the same thing) Please let me know if you figure out how to improve professions wiki pages, so wowwiki users can find info how to make gold with each profession. Making gold is a big part of the game, everything what's available on internet is crap and not free. It would be great if wowwiki could help the visitors in this important topic, but obviously the challenge is that this content is highly dynamic and it changes with each patch or AH market fluctuation. For now I see nothing better then what External links policy recommends: add elinks for all dynamic content. But it would be cool to do something better than just elinks. Thanks.Andrewginda (talk) 22:11, August 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * You should however expand that information since some realms seem to be missing, the EU realm Moonglade being one. I wouldn't trust the site. -- 22:24, August 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * I agree and I'm working on adding more realms to AHseller.com Still combined data (chose ““All Realms”” from drop down) is pretty good and trustable. Even if your realm is missing, “”All Realms”” data can give you a pretty close picture on what is good for making gold on your realm and what is not. Andrewginda (talk) 22:38, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

Loading Screens
You reverted my edit to Loading screen to the one I had previously. The previous one didn't include the outland screenshot and the other 3 had the loading graphic on them the new updated ones do not. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by.

Ethics?
I've been reviewing Smitrovic's contributions. Most are some sort of advertisement for a website or Youtube channel. I don't know what Wowwiki's policy is on this kind of activity is but I personally find it abhorrent. I see it as no less different than gold spammers filling up trade with advertisements. Basically there is an ulterior motive behind this person's contributions to this site and it's not for the greater good. Korval (talk) 06:13, August 17, 2010 (UTC)

Jaruk Bloodfyre
Hello, upon reading the Family Values article, I noticed that Jaruk Bloodfyre has no own article yet - or rather, that there was one and that it got deleted by you. Wondering, was it because it was and would only be a stub article, or because the content was incorrect (plus a stub) - from what I can read from the "redlink" page, it was just an npcbox with even incorrect info, such as stating he was a shaman, and that he's of the Warsong Offensive faction. Would you mind if I created that article again, with only confirmable info in the box, plus a short bio? I feel this character deserves his own article. ~ Nathanyel (talk) 14:52, August 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * The article was deleted because the user who created it removed the content right away, leading to believe it was a mistake to create the article in the first place. You're free to create the article. -- 16:42, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

Dragon categories
You know, I was just thinking when I was editing the drakonid pages for BWL that I wished there was a category to put them in that identified their color but didn't necessarily attribute them to that flight, since the ones in BWL are different colors but clearly all affiliated with the black dragonflight (or at least Nefarian). That being said, is the absence of Chromatic Dragon and Twilight Dragon categories intentional, or just an oversight? -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 21:24, August 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, I just got around to finally making the main dragonflight categories for dragons... but I don't see myself making categories for those... least not until we see more twilight dragons. As for the chromatic, I'm undecided as of right now. 21:29, August 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. One more question, then. Leave the drakonids in a single large "Drakonid" category, or split it up amongst the flights? -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 21:45, August 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh I didn't split them already either... *goes to check* .. oh I see why. I probably thought at the time, that the category was already small and splitting them up would probably make each one tiny, but at this point... might as well make them all match right? 21:49, August 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * And I imagine it's only going to get bigger in Cataclysm. -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 21:50, August 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * True... well... maybe not blue ones =P 21:56, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

defaultsort question
Why do pages such as Overmaster Pyron show in Category:Pages with DEFAULTSORT conflicts? As far as I can see, there is only one defaultsort line, and it appears valid? Is there another one I can't see? -=- Drazisil [t/c] 16:29, August 22, 2010 (UTC)


 * That's because the DEFAULTSORT from Pattern: Cloak of Fire was included too. Since item transcludes the marked area of the article, only the tooltip would be included. Unfortunately it used instead of to transclude the tooltip, so the DEFAULTSORT added at the bottom also got on the mob article. -- 16:43, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

lich revert
Heya,Coobra.

Why did you revert the last change I made to the Lich Page?

O.o —The preceding unsigned comment was added by.


 * Because liches can't be death knights. -- 07:16, August 23, 2010 (UTC)


 * I understand. I misinterpreted the purpose of that section. I was under the impression that was for what classes could become the specified class of mob, and not what classes the specified class could be themselves. Carry on!


 * Also, I don't know what just happened I clicked leave a message and received some kind of edit conflict message. (Blackbane (talk) 01:58, August 24, 2010 (UTC))


 * Looks like you might have doubled clicked save page, sometimes you can edit conflict yourself.. I've done it on a few occasions. 16:46, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

Question about sources.
I was wondering do I need to cite quests to add new info to a article? And also hi. Rimor Conscientia (talk) 01:54, August 26, 2010 (UTC)


 * Always cite more stuff!-- 01:57, August 26, 2010 (UTC)


 * Citing means folks don't have to look around for where you got your information. IE, you didn't simply pull it off the top of your head.  Also makes it easier for other people to add stuff. --Eirik Ratcatcher (talk) 21:02, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

 * If you talking about Server:Turalyon Europe/Jellinator, it doesn't exist. As for your user page, you have never made such a request. 01:00, August 28, 2010 (UTC)


 * Apologies slight confusion, it's been a while since I needed to log in. Is there any way to make my userprofile uneditable to others? Jellinator (talk) 01:04, August 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * There's only 2 settings, unlocked, and locked. You would be unable to edit it, should we lock it. 01:06, August 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Alright well in that case I'll sit on it and see what happens if it persists do i request a lock on here or go someplace special? For now I'd prefer it unlocked though.


 * Personally, your user page hasn't been hit with much vandalism as some users have received. I think it would be more of a hassle for you if you requested it locked. 01:12, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

Shaman Page - Possible Vandalism?
To tell you the truth, I don't know if the person who is doing it is purposely doing it or simply not understanding, but under the "Talent tree" section, they have added alot of information that is outdated, or simply doesn't make sense, and is incredibly hard to understand what they are trying to say.

Leogrimn
[bows before you] I am Leogrimn, a veteran player of World Of Warcraft. I have often used this wikia for information, and I have finally decided to join. I am vigilant and constantly on, and I enjoy being helpful. If I see a problem, I will leave a notification on the article talk page, as I am horrible with manipulating wiki coding and making things do what I want. If there is anything I can do, please, let me know.--Leo And his beloved lynx, Firestorm 02:17, August 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * Speaking from a personal point of view... there's nothing more annoying than someone commenting of things needing something, but not actually helping out. Now I understand you believe you might be horrible at editing wiki code, but have you tried? We all had to learn, and many of us learned through examples and making plenty of mistakes. I know that I might have come off as an arse for saying that, but most times, and this is true, comments on talk pages go unnoticed anyway, unless they're highly edited articles. 03:14, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

Everything you say is true. I have tried before, multiple times. I once tried getting images to line up in an organized order for a page, but I couldn't even make the image show up. It's true that I need to learn, and I'm willing to do so. I'm merely pointing out what I can until then. Don't worry, you're not coming off as rude or anything. I'm actually pleased that you said this. The talkpage thing is also true, though I find that some wikias tend to watch everything anyway.--Leo And his beloved lynx, Firestorm 13:14, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

Required Assistance
So I hear your the person to talk to when theres questions on WoWWiki (or any other admin, your name just came up). I have a concern with the Hunter races page. If you read my newly posted comment on the discussion tab on said page, you'll notice that I actually use the 'class races' pages in actual decision making of alts. My concern is that the page is pathetically and poorly done, further explained here (http://www.wowpedia.org/Talk:Hunter_races#Problem_I_see_with_the_page). You'll notice my comment under TeeSon5's old one.

My concern is that I'm not sure what templates/tags to put onto this page so that the general public is made aware of the issues on the page and somebody with the knowledge to update and fix it can actually be made aware of the problems. I personally lack the knowledge to update it myself, if I could I would.

I think that the page just lacks the components that all the other 'class races' pages have, and out of them all the Hunters page is the most pathetic. It needs more than "they're naturals and enjoy it". Thanks again for your help. Sorry for the bother. Htipiti (talk) 01:49, September 6, 2010 (UTC)

Just thought i'd make you aware that this is not correct and needs removed. I can't seem to find it anywhere on the page, maybe a problem with the wiki? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by.
 * When you say it's not correct, what exactly are you saying? That the value is off, or the feral AP doesn't exist? -=- [[Image:IconSmall_DrakeAzure.gif]] Drazisil [t/c] 12:18, September 8, 2010 (UTC)

 * Nope, (3147 feral attack power) is just appearing on the left hand side even though it isn't entered on the edit page. Aeonorion (talk)

 * It does for druids, which is why it automatically appears here, cause druids may want to know info that you may not care about. 01:10, September 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay, thanks. Aeonorion (talk) 02:18, September 9, 2010 (UTC)

Zalazane's Fall Videos
I'm not sure I understand what you meant by not adding anything that isn't already there. like page formatting or what?

F4wrf43ras (talk) 20:31, September 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * The other videos currently on the page go into detail about the quests, the vid you've linked is a very small overview of the same material. 20:34, September 8, 2010 (UTC)

Gotcha. I assumed since the other two videos were PTR, and the one I posted was on a live realm that there might be a distinction. Sorry about that.

Cataclysm Kalimdor
Whats the reason for deleting the map? As far as I can see there is no violation as Azeroth (world) and Outland articles feature similar categories. What is different about my contribution? (and I would like an answer thats not a link to the guidelines)

Regards,


 * We don't generally allow fanart in articles, there are few exceptions to this rule. The ones on Azeroth (world) are very well done... I have been thinking of getting rid of File:World of warcraft.jpg for a while though, only reason it's stayed around for so long is due to having all three continents together with the new Northrend, rather than the classic skinny versions of it on the rest of the maps on the article. As for the Outland one, it's one of two maps on the page. One of the exceptions to the rule is when lack of content fan made images are acceptable... to a degree.


 * Now lets pick at your image... it's missing the Azuremyst/Bloodmyst Isles, a bunch of thrown in leaders from loading screens, ZF has the colored boss marks, the addition of Org... half of it is "undiscovered". And since the Kalimdor already has tons of images of it, fan stuff, unless REALLY really good should not be placed on it. As for deleting it, instead of just removing it this time, is simply because I see you continually re-adding it, if I had not. 21:40, September 14, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you
Thank you for deleting those old images I uploaded. I couldn't figure out to get to the page where I could see where all the things I've uploaded are to do so myself, since those images were no longer used. I appreciate you doing that for me, thank you. Lolanda (talk) 22:47, September 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * You're welcome. 22:48, September 17, 2010 (UTC)

Sir Zeliek
I was wondering where you would put the ex-paladin qualifications I posted on Sir Zeliek's page if you removed them.

Why did you remove them? I believe that part was relevant to the constant arguments that occur over him. Lordrayken (talk) 03:02, September 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * If they're qualifications for Ex-Paladins, I don't see why Sir Zeliek's article would be the right place to place it if you claim he is neither a death knight nor ex-paladin. If anything, you'd place it on the Ex-Paladin's article, with citations, cause I hope this is not just something you believe. 03:05, September 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * Its the facts behind why Sir Zeliek is not an Ex-paladin. It's the blatant information right out of the game books for why he could not hold Paladin powers if he was, obviously, an ex-paladin. But you're right. The section I added was attempting to explain "why" he is a Paladin, and not a Death Knight or "ex-paladin", when in reality, it doesn't matter why. People can go look it up on their own, right? Lordrayken (talk) 03:12, September 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Right. 03:15, September 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Good. I'm glad somebody sees what I see for a change, right out of the books.Lordrayken (talk) 03:18, September 20, 2010 (UTC)

Moving Stuff
I was just about to move that piece of fanfic you recently moved, but I wasn't 100% sure on how to do it (and you beat me to the punch). For future reference, in the "Move" window, I would rename it to User:/, correct? Followed by a friendly note in their talk pages as to why and what I did? Tanooki1432 (talk) 20:26, September 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Correct. 20:28, September 24, 2010 (UTC)

Roleplaying
Currently, the existing roleplaying guide is rather massive and cumbersome. I'll admit, that I'm guilty as charged in making it that way, but I'd like to break it up into smaller pages, sort of along these guidelines that I made (subject to change), and have everything tied under a template navigation box similar to that one. I'm just dropping this proposal here for your approval and any suggestions you might have. (Since your one of the Lords of the Wiki). Tanooki1432 (talk) 21:09, September 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * I leave it up to you, some people may want all the info on one page, others like yourself may prefer it split up. Those types of articles could use some loving though... so you have my blessing. 21:14, September 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Tanooki, you should make titles of the new pages all lower case (except for the first letter, of course), or they will be moved later. The fact that the page claims to be ripped from another website is not good either. I hope you fix that too.-- 21:26, September 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hmm, they should probably contain the word roleplaying on them... just so a page like Character creation is not confused with being an explanation of in-game character creation for WoW. 21:31, September 24, 2010 (UTC)

 * When the only person actively writing on the page removes everything from it and then leaves it like that, it is seen as a request for deletion. So as to not leave blank articles, it was deleted. And yes there is a way to recover the page. I'll restore it's history, but it must continue to follow the guild policy. 00:59, September 28, 2010 (UTC)

Template species
I already removed these because they are not sapient, they are just humanoid shaped animals that form packs, they have no buildings, no tools and behave like beasts in fact some are classified as beasts, which doesn't fit in a template of only sapient beings, and believe me I've been trough about this there are no points that suggests that they are sapient so i'm going to remove them from the template for sapient being because they aren't--Ashbear160 (talk) 11:34, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * I also want to use this opportunity to ask something do you think I should change Grell from Native to azeroth to Nature and eternals?
 * they are fey which is a type of nature spirit? but what do you think?--Ashbear160 (talk) 11:49, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Grell can probably stay were they are since we really don't have too much info on them. 20:03, October 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * Your reason for removing them makes no sense... lack of buildings, no tools and behave like beasts? They're a primitive society. Know what else is on that template that fits your description: Wildkin, fungal giants, bog beasts. The official description from the bestiary makes them sound sapient enough for me... and there's a reason some packs were classified as beasts. To fulfill the requirements of certain quests in a highly farmed area of its day. 19:54, October 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * I'll concede with wildkin not being sapient beings(i think this was a leftover from the old old template before i attempted at changing it) but there are examples of bog beasts(in the wetlands), and fungal Giants(in sporeggar) that talk show concerns and offer quests they might just be one or two but at least they state a precedent for sapient beings of those race, the rockflayers have nothing to prove sapience, they form packs but there's also a bunch of non-sapient animals that also form packs(worgs and talbuk), they have humanoid shape but being humanoid is not condition for being sapient, they tame pet but this is a biological adaptation(trough pheromones) to control ravagers rather than a sapient skill, there is nothing sapient there, also the bestiaries are very loose examples of creature concept very early in development that don't push trough the game and in this case there's no proof of sapient rock flayers in the entire outlands as far as i remember(and nothing in the rockflayer article mentions sapience too so it's not a long stretch)
 * I'll remove wildkin and rockflayers--Ashbear160 (talk) 21:18, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

MY FAVORITE Template
COOOBRA!!! I'm little angry becouse you bolcked the "Template:Race". I'm not insterested to discount it on you sir, but I did something wrong enoght to I can't edit it more? Why? If I made mistakes can you teach me? I was trying to add the template "Ered'ruin" (with Daemon, Fiend, Dommguard and Doomlord Icons) and become some nervous when I saw: I can't edit my favorite thing in this wiki; Icons! Can I have permission to edit next time? Anser, please. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by. 19:42, October 11, 2010
 * What?--Ashbear160 (talk) 23:44, October 11, 2010 (UTC)


 * I made a section in which you can request additions on it's talk page. But as it's a highly used template it can't be receiving tons of edits. The main purpose of this template is to make it easier to link two or more (but no more than five - which is pushing it) icons and their page, now while it does have singular icons using the RaceIconExt template is just as effective. Feel free to make requests and an admin most likely a'noob or myself will add them in one edit. 02:05, October 12, 2010 (UTC)


 * Well... I was editing and nothing go wrog... And I cant' edit for myself now... Sniff...
 * SO, can you show the last edit "" on the visible page of the template? And add "[[File:IconSmall Doomlord.gif]][[File:IconSmall Doomguard.gif]][[File:IconSmall Fiend.gif]][[File:IconSmall Daemon.gif]]Ered'ruin" for me, please (cute bright eyes look to you... Ohhhh...)?
 * PS.: Exist Netherwing Spawn icon (if exist Nether Dragonspawn) to add to ""? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by . 03:13, October 12, 2010

 * One thing you should know though.. speculated things won't enter. Like, no proof that Daemons are Ered'ruin. 07:45, October 12, 2010 (UTC)


 * I already did that in here
 * http://www.wowpedia.org/User:Ashbear160/List_of_templates_with_icons

Cost and Honor Points
I could not get template:costitem to work for the new Honor Points. Maybe it was my usage, but I suspect it was because the Honor Point article does not have an item tool tip since it is non-item currency. Hence using template:currency since it let me specify the image to use. Did I miss something about how to use the costitem template? —MJBurrage(T•C) 05:25, October 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah, well then... guess we'll need to update the cost template or give the points a tooltip. Which will probably be updated after the move... don't I don't want to hinder the moving process. 05:41, October 16, 2010 (UTC)

Bloody categories
Hi coobra, what's up. I'm sorry if I did something wrong creating the Blood elf quest giver category but I saw racial categories like draneis, goblins, humans, dwarves, gnomes, forsaken, night elves, orcs and tauren ones, that is all the other racial playable characters except blood elves. So, just for curiosity, why blood elves haven't their own category?. You also deleted the "quest giver" category from Lor'themar btw, doesn't he count as a quest giver even though he offers one?. --Killogwil (talk) 04:14, October 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * The simple answer is, the quest givers categories were being reverted back to how they once were, which was separate from each other. However, this process was halted till the move was completed. There were many of these types of categories, not just the main races... just so happens the main races were being done last. This also happened with the quest enders.. which was completed before the move began. 04:54, October 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks a lot, I didn't see any discussion or warning about the changes so I just added a few NPCs in case I was doing something wrong to be easily reverted. We do the same in the spanish wiki and really it's more useful so I'll help in the new pages created ;) --Killogwil (talk) 06:14, October 17, 2010 (UTC)

New Sylvanas picture
Hello there, figured I should run this by one of the higher-ups like you first :P

They updated the Hallows end event model for Sylvanas, she appears using her usual form now. I took a screenshot, about on par with last year's one-

http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2vuedmq&s=7

 * Not exactly sure why they need to have all the different icons anyway... honest opinion of it... it makes it look cluttered. 03:32, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

 * Could you put a icon with theradras model as a earth princess icon? and turn Air lord into a air prince icon?
 * I hope you don't mind but i changed all the oozes to elemental section there's a quest that after study calls them elementals with relations to the old gods
 * I added a tol'vir subsection even if it has only one entry(for now)
 * I noticed the word enchanted in anubisath making so now i think they are examples of magical animations, but i'm not sure, what do you think, i don't want them to be a special case?

 * Why? Just use her icon if you need it. And Why?
 * What quest?
 * K... cept that Obsidian destroyers are not humanoids... so they should be placed back where they were. On second thought, I guess they can stay, if only to keep them together with the new icons soon to be uploaded.
 * They are magically animated statues, but they're fine where they are since they are still classified as Uncategoried.

 * Quest:... and a Batch of Ooze This is also proven further in that one i deepholme where that guys that eats oozes turns into a elemental, i also prefer if i keep oozes together, and put mercury in the other because it fits with the fact they are other not-so-sure-that-are-elementals like murmur, i prefer to keep it organized like: 4 classical elements, conglomerate, nature, construct, ooze and other--Ashbear160 (talk) 23:33, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Other is fine for singular things, but if something contains more than one type of creature/icon, it should get it's own subsection... as for the deepholm quest of that guy eating mercury oozes doesn't prove anything for normal oozes... given that quests in Grizzly Hills and a few other places it could be possible that the oozes originate from Old Gods, but Bliz also uses the Oozes for many purposes, from blood, to spit, to oil and everything in between. As a whole, they are uncategorized. 00:23, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Hi...
Subjects\Assuntos (portuguese): 1: Languague to add in Template:Language links: Pandaren. Obs.: Why not to show: Murlocs and Makrura | Nerglish (in one box)

2: Wrong predefinitions (Gourra removed my edits in your page): (Note (Friendly and Critic): Where is your human, orc or dwarf?)

(Note (Friendly, but Critic): Where is your warrior, paladin and priest?)

3:?! WTH?! Gray orcs\Dark orcs\Gray-skinned orcs aren't exclusive to Dragonmaw! The Dark Horde, also The Cult of the Danmed (may be undead) and may other organizations have this orcs... May be necessary a new article about it. See my corruption scale (0 to 10): Brown orc - 0,0000001 Green demon-free orc - 2,5 Green demon-aligned orc - 5 Gray\Dark orc (probabily orcs who was demon-aligned or\and bloodthristy and still worsiping demons indirectly or fel orc who are regreding in the scale) - 7,5 Fel Orc - 9,9999999 (For me no one is completely or not a bit corrupted) May the scale fail with this: Sacred spiritist ecological honorific mercyful wise orc - (- 10³) in the scale Fel tainted twisted wretched wrathful evilful destructive dire orc - : English : OH! It's over 9000!!!!! (U.S.A. Vegeta don't learn to count...) Portuguese: AHHHR! É de mais de 8000!!!!

4: I'm triyng to remember... In time... (Gabrirt (talk) 17:39, 27 October 2010 (UTC))


 * I'll try to make sense of everything you just said...
 * 1. Pandaren added, as for the murlocs and makrura not sharing a box... one race, one box.
 * 2. As the header of that section states... I only listed notable ones. I'm not going to list every character I have had or currently use.
 * 3. Did I ever claim grey orcs were exclusive to the Dragonmaw? No, it's just a simple name for an icon like Mag'har is.

Future race ideas
I've planned some changes there i removed the grey info parts and added it added it below with a * below, I'm also thinking of somekind of point thing but i'll give it more thought later is there any problems with this?--Ashbear160 (talk) 16:49, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Eh, I was thinking of doing something a little different, just never got around to it, but merging like that would probably confused some readers. 21:14, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Why the info part is supposed to be an note to that particular argument isn't it? anyway what to you think of a point system to see how probable is each race like dark green gives one point orange takes one point, sum it all up probable points, and then alliance points-horde points=positive it has more probability of being aliance negative has more probability of being horde?

what do you think?--Ashbear160 (talk) 21:37, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok then, how about a third option.. putting the additional info with the main topic, but making it gray and without a bullet point. Also keeping Legend so it shows what the gray means. Would you think this is acceptable? 21:59, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes since it doesn't take another square to put counter arguments or extra argument--Ashbear160 (talk) 22:14, 28 October 2010 (UTC)

Rank tables!
O hais! Fancy seeing you here.

So I'm a bit confused and need of help. I'm going around seeing all these random spells with rank tables in them and, obviously, in the current live version (and future Cataclysm) ranks for all spells have been removed and now there is "one scaling spell". So, I read Help:Updating for Cataclysm to see if it could answer whether or not these ranks should be removed or not. It would seem to make sense to remove the rank tables from ability pages and the only thing I could find on the help page about it was to add Rfg-section to the section concerned, but I feel like that's not enough and it should be removed in its entirety from a page.

Thoughts? -- Typhoneus Talk Contribs 14:59, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

(P.S. do you know your "Leave a comment" plate at the top? It's redirecting to WoWWiki)
 * Fixed the leave a comment. Please see Forum:Replacing rank tables for an active discussion on this. -- 15:01, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Wikifying the Vote Kick page.
Hi,

New user! I saw the Vote Kick page had the Wikify template, and so made a few changes. Since you're the person that put the template there, could you take a quick look and see if it conforms to a higher standard? If not, what sort of thing needs to be done to improve it? I'm planning to add some pictures of the feature when I have time tomorrow to get into a group and take some screenshots.

Thanks! -- Celuur (Talk page | Contribs) 06:56, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Noob welcome message is broken. It may take a bot to fix it
Hi Cobra. Thanks for posting a welcome message on my (reclaimed) user page...

...assuming that was not done by a welcome bot. ;-)

I noticed that the welcome text actually includes references to WoWWiki, so it needs a fix. I hit the edit button, assuming I could surf over to a template and fix it myself, but unfortunately the entire text of the welcome message seems to have been imported onto my page.

(I am assuming it is a template that has been copied and pasted from WoWWiki, as I don't think it is the sort of mistake a person normally makes, if they write something like that by hand.)

I think what needs to happen is:
 * The welcome message needs to be updated, as soon as possible, so that new welcome posts say 'Wowpedia' instead of 'WoWWiki' and
 * Some sort of bot needs to be programmed to surf around User:Talk pages looking for welcome message text to edit.

I don't know where the welcome template would be. And my knowledge of bot programming is 100 percent theoretical.

Are you able to fix this (or pass it onto someone else who can fix it)?

(I am going to leave the page as is - mistakes included - so you can see what it looks like.)

David Shepheard (talk) 17:12, 31 October 2010 (UTC)


 * EDIT: It looks like this is an old welcome that you gave me before the move. Sorry for not noticing. I still think there is a problem that needs looking at, but it might not be the same problem I thought it was before. David Shepheard (talk) 17:35, 31 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Every page, including user and user talk pages were copied over... I don't believe we have a bot setup to replace the original welcome message for older users to the updated message that new users will be receiving. 20:39, 31 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks for taking the time to talk to me Cobra. And thanks for editing my message. You guys must be mega-busy with the move. I don't think you could do these one talk page at a time! ;-) David Shepheard (talk) 13:07, 5 November 2010 (UTC)

Question
You've probably been asked this a million times already, but is WoWWiki going to eventually shut down and redirect to WoWPedia? Sarvam (talk) 02:26, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
 * It will probably not shutdown... though... it may be removed as an official fansite in time. 03:16, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Wikia will likely keep WoWWiki up until they can no longer profit from it. I doubt it will ever become a redirect. The fansite thing may be true (hopefully, as long as we gain the status).-- 03:36, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

'This user has reclaimed their user page'?
Any chance we could get a button, category or other thing to show that people have reclaimed their account, since the move? I think it would help people work out what users were real users, rather than shadow pages of WoWWiki users who are not here yet?

Also, is there any way to work out statistically, how many people have actually reclaimed their account? I'm thinking of setting up a page for Wowpedia on WikiIndex, and (from their point of view) it would probably be statistically interesting, to work out how large a faction has moved across (or how fast WoWWiki account holders are reclaiming their accounts here).

(WikiIndex is a wiki about other wikis, what they do, how big they are and how popular they are, so how many pages you have here, or how popular pages are - they call it a wikiFactor - is of interest to them.)

I haven't set up the WikiIndex page for this wiki yet, as I'm still trying to understand the implications of the fork. From one point of view, this is the same project that existed before it merged into Wikia. From another point of view it has a different name, so could be seen as a different project. I've left messages with a couple of WikiIndex admins to ask for their advise on how your new-but-old wiki should be presented over there. David Shepheard (talk) 13:25, 5 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Hmm... maybe we could tag users that have a created userpage, have not reclaimed their account.. you should bring this up in the forums and see if we can get opinions or comments of doing what you've suggested by other users. But as of right now, we don't have plans for that. 20:49, 5 November 2010 (UTC)

Does the image exist or not?
The other day I was having a jolly fun time uploading images and editing articles. I guess the edits somewhat improved Wowpedia, but what do you know - the images were already uploaded! As SWM brought me the horrible news I realized it'd been nifty if there was a method to figure out whether an image is uploaded on Wowpedia or not. As you seem to be the guy handling images, could you tell me if such a feature exist, or in any case come up with a solution? WrathOfDeathfrost (talk) 20:09, 5 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Finding an image based on what it contains? I don't think there's a true way to search based on that, only way I know of is either by file names (which is why we try to get users to name images related to the content) or by looking through articles it could be on. SWM noticed the duplicates, but I go through soo many images it didn't occur to me, that I've seen them before... So I'm sure duplicates can be found all the time, sometimes unless the wiki tells you it's a duplicate, you may not realize it. 20:50, 5 November 2010 (UTC)

WHY
WHY THE HELL DID U DELETE MY PAGE. WTF DUDE. UR A JERK. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by.
 * Cause deleting a redirect is deleting your page... which was already moved by another user to its correct location. Getting bent out of shape over our policies will not help you here. Please sign your rants in the future using 4 tildes (~), thank you. 00:21, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

Referencing Question
Coobra, when you get a spare moment - can you make sure i did the referencing properly on Rated_battlegrounds? and let me know if their was anything i left out? Still learning and want to ensure im doing it properly 02:18, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Looks good to me, only thing I can think to comment on is that since there's so few references, you don't need to add a 2 to the reflist template. 02:41, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok, thank you. :) 02:55, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Just one more question - What is the best way to get images for pages [such as NPC portraits] if i cant find one on this site? Do i just take a screenshot and crop it, or is their a better way? 04:29, 13 November 2010 (UTC)


 * The best way is to take a screenshot from in-game, making sure to highlight the subject (so it's not too dark), then crop and upload. The only other way would be to borrow a screenshot from wowhead. 05:30, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

Re: Images
Hi, this is in response to your message about my oversized images:

How can I fix them? To be perfectly honest, it's not that I need them big (on the contrary, on my page, they show up as only, to my belief, 200px width or 300px height, and as for File:Lohomoko.png, as only 400px), so I would be fine if you could reduce them. I'm not entirely sure with all of this layout (going from Monaco to the odd wikia look to this comfortable design is kinda throwing me off), so if you could help me, I would appreciate it, and if you reverted their sizes to a more... well... sizable option, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks in advance. Strength and honor,

Juan Jose Rodriguez (talk) 21:29, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

NPC's
Thanks for the response - I was unsure of how we defined 'added' i.e added to the game but not implemented (in the files), or added to the game and implemented. I'll change the articles I've added to reflect the later (Patch 4.0.3a) Cheers. Wren (talk) 08:07, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

I propuse this edit to update the template
Review and use what be must convenient, but I think my edit well organized in categories.(Gabrirt (talk) 21:10, 29 November 2010 (UTC))


 * I don't like it, for the same reason I don't like how hunter pets has become. It's tooo large. 21:13, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
 * ... i it's already done trough smaller templates--Ashbear160 (talk) 21:32, 29 November 2010 (UTC)


 * If a nav template takes up 90% of the screen... it's too big. 21:30, 29 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Look and note the details as and  in other faction and other thinks. You can consider removing Sha'tar, Blue Dragonflight and Twilight's Hammer (less than four individuals in the category) when you update the template, I listed becouse they are important factions. If is that the case move Kalec to Neutral (he is hostile when possed in the Sunwell Plateau). I listed in both race and alphabetical order.
