Forum:We're getting linked from the official site!

Announcement: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/1334974

Go to any item page, say http://us.battle.net/wow/en/item/12345 and look at the right side of the page.

I cannot find the words to express how excited I am about this! -- k_d3 08:52, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I noticed that too. A sweet taste of victory, it seems! -- 08:57, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 * It is heartening to know that we have Blizzard's support and that this may be their subtle way of telling Wikia to bugger off. Also, this, and each of the race and class pages have links to us as well. They are linking us all over it seems. :) Is it safe to say that we now have official fansite status? :P StarNeptune (talk) 10:03, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Also linked on the char rep pages, just hover over any row and then the icon that appears on the right. Stewart (t) 17:07, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Yoopee! Hans Kamp (talk) 17:14, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I didn't see anything mentioning Wowpedia in the blog announcement. Where is it hiding? Otherwise... SUPER VERY ULTRA COOL! This is even better than WoWWiki at its peak achieved. --[[Image:gengar orange 22x22.png]] Fandyllic (talk &middot; contribs) 10:45 AM PST 4 Dec 2010
 * The original post (before it was deleted, but blue tracker still got it) specifically said we were a fansite. :) Ressy (talk) 17:50, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 * The first (quickly deleted) announcement got archived at . -- k_d3 18:00, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Was probably deleted because it went up before the maintenance done last night which added all the new features. Ressy (talk) 18:32, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 * The EU site still says it http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/blog/1091062 -- 18:34, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 * They've also recently edited the US announcement to readd the fansite section! -- k_d3 03:16, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I've had the "Official Fan Site" bit removed from WoWWiki, as the link no longer worked and there is no way to prove that wowwiki is still a fan site. Hooper (talk) 14:58, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Only if you're a fan of Wikia, perhaps... --[[Image:IconSmall_Deathwing.gif]] Joshmaul, Loremaster of Chaos (Leave a Message) 22:28, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Until Blizzard restores the page with the official fan site list there is no evidence that any site is an official fan site. --[[Image:gengar orange 22x22.png]] Fandyllic (talk &middot; contribs) 5:53 PM PST 5 Dec 2010
 * Well the above linked blog post specifically call out wowhead and wowpedia as fan sites, so I'd say those can be the only two proven fan sites at the moment. Hooper (talk) 11:42, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Side note on outbound links, for those who (like me) missed it, Thottbot comments are now included in wowhead, which also includes the percentage drop rates. It has a button in the top right corner "Link" to give you the in-game link. Tequima (talk) 13:57, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
