Mithril Order quest chain
Other folks have this snazzy boilerplate to put here, and perhaps they'll get around to it eventually. Meanwhile, on Mithril Order quest chain, and "alliance or horde first", I have tried to be fairly even-handed with "who goes first". I had not even considered whether we should standardize on one or the other, mostly because I thought there'd be ... acrimony. Still, I'm not about to revert your change. And you might consider asking on the Village Pump about the issue. --Eirik Ratcatcher 20:59, 3 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the advise. Actually, I am quite amazed that somebody at all took notice of my change to Mithril Order quest chain. I had the impression, that alliance is listed first usually - in fact, when reading that article this "reversed" order caught my eye. In my personal opinion alliance should be first (hey, they are the good guys!). I think, Blizzard also lists alliance first, but I have to check that. I agree with you, it would be nice to standardize this issue, but as you said, there might be some "disagreement". For that reason, maybe it is best not to make too much fuss about it - this could sensitize people resulting in many edits and maybe even vandalism (as it happened to the Wikipedia article often) --Christian et 21:41, 3 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Ok, I checked the following: Wikipedia has alliance first, in English as well as in German article. In WoW character generation screen, alliance is left (i.e. first) and horde is right. http://www.wow-europe.com lists horde first in the introduction, but alliance first in the list of main cities. Conclusion: most sources have alliance first, but it seems to be a matter of taste of the author. Maybe its best to let them write their pages the way they want? --Christian et 22:09, 3 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I agree. OTOH, I have so many other irons in the fire, that worrying about which comes first (it was the Chicken, by the way!) is not that important. --Eirik Ratcatcher 01:40, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
