Adding a new Mirror webpage
Hello,

I want to add a new mirror website on the patch_mirror section but it says I'm not allowed to add external urls when i try to edit the page. What should I do?

Thankyou

Thanks!
Hi, Sandwichman2448. Thanks for creating the Blank Scroll page and linking back to Trade Secrets of a Trade Prince. It really helps me out. You guys do awesome work here.

Sorry if this is in the wrong place. I would have messaged you privately, but couldn't figure out how. Bad at Wiki.

RE: "Let us not get into the ToA's two visits thing."
Well if we're just going to ignore the content of ToA, even though it's much more recent than the original account written for WC3, could at least keep the edit to the general section of the page? I purposefully made it as neutral as possible so as not to mention any number of Titan visits or who arrived was first for that part. I changed that section mostly for the motivation behind the Titans' arrival on Azeroth. This account of the Titans' motivation for coming to Azeroth is from WC3. Aside from this motivation for arrival being contradicted by ToA ("arrived to extirpate symbiotic infection"), it's also contradicted by the AskCDev2's "when the titans' forces arrived to subdue the Old Gods." --Aquamonkeyeg (talk) 05:21, 10 April 2014 (UTC)
 * "ruled the planet of Azeroth in the days before the titans arrived to shape and order it."


 * While I am willing to go along with something like this edit to the Earthen page, the edit to the Old Gods page is taking it too far. The Old Gods and the Ordering of Azeroth is old enough that it has likely been retconned, but your edit also changes the content to a theory supported only by the Tribunal of Ages (which due to the non-linear nature of the conversation, never gets into much context) while also ignoring the context of the much more recent Ask CDev answers that agrees with the older lore.-- 14:31, 10 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Happy to discuss things but... Aqua has proved that the Lore Keeper of Norgannon, the Tribunal of Ages and the Ask CDev do not contradict each other. See the Old Gods talk page for a better explanation. Maybe the issue should be discussed again.-- (talk) 15:56, 10 April 2014 (UTC)


 * I made my case for the 2 visits thing in the discussion page as Cemotucu noted. My plea here was more for this edit. --Aquamonkeyeg (talk) 20:10, 10 April 2014 (UTC)


 * I knew what you were talking about. Sorry for being unclear.-- 20:35, 10 April 2014 (UTC)

Youtube tag error banner has a typo
The error banner for attempting to add "youtube" tags to articles has a typo. "2. ..., use "

It should be "#vlink" instead of "#vplink". Geeze the site is really anal about that tag even when enclosed by &lt;nowiki>" can be used. --Aquamonkeyeg (talk) 21:13, 28 June 2014 (UTC)

My signature
I did not know that meant admin, my bad. Makes since because only admins have it. Thanks! 23:55, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

Prince Tortheldrin's class
Hi there! I noticed that you removed an edit about Prince Tortheldrin's class (Mage and Necromancer). Why so? I understand that's a speculation but he clearly uses Mage's spells like Counterspell and it's said in the dungeon journal that he wields necromantic abilities. On the other hand, he has dual-wield... But why did you remove his class? Thanks for your attention! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by.

Instance/keep
I understood the Instance page to be more about game terms. The way the opening sentence was phrased, I was expecting to find something pertaining to instances by following the Keep link. But that Keep page is about literal keeps, with a broken disambig I assumed was going to point to a Keep game term page (but didn't). And the Dungeon page includes castles as part of its definition as a general fantasy term for an adventuring area. I don't care either way, but that was just my reasoning behind the change. --Aquamonkeyeg (talk) 20:03, 3 December 2014 (UTC)

Change of Command, Twinbraid
I added the citation to the General Twinbraid. Basically General Twinbraid and the forces of Bael'dun annihilated the native Stonespire Tribe, then forced the survivors to leave their ancestral lands per Khazgorm's journal. Twinbraid talks in Krasarang about wanting to prevent the native pandaren from encroachment, but thats exactly what he and Bael'dun did to the tauren of the barrens.

 * Okay. People are still might fight about it.-- 05:26, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

On Warcraft III page splittings
I sort of wonder if there might be a more elegant solution for war3 pages that have have a bunch of related WoW info. Rather than just tagging them either through article name or template as "Warcraft III", maybe they could sit in their own sort of 'sub-wiki' where the url would go wow.gamepedia.com/war3/whatever? No idea how feasible this would be though. PIESofNORTH (talk) 17:35, 19 April 2015 (UTC)
 * I would only support the creation of a Gamepedia project on WarCraft III, but is there any need for it? Those pages have been here since the very beginning of WoWWiki.--Adûnâi (talk) 17:50, 19 April 2015 (UTC)
 * I do not think that a separation of that extent is needed. You could try to make another content portal (linked from the main page) for the RTS series. The RTS series was sort of skipped over the years of WoWWiki/Wowpedia's development. You will not find much for/about playing Warcraft III (a topic dear to me). I thank you for your hard work. As for my comment on the "Arcane Sanctum" page, it was about 1) there being an inconsistency, and 2) me actually liking that idea better.-- 18:50, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

Vrykul page citations
Okay, so I went trawling for some possible citations. Tell me if you think these sound good: Only asking because I tried editing the page today but it was lost because my laptop enforced an update-related shut-down, and I wanted to know if that was enough references to remove the label at the top of the page. --MadHatter121 (talk) 11:36, 12 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Anguish of Nifflevar (Ymiron says the Titans were seen as gods by the vrykul, some want to kill the human babies and others want them to be saved etc.)
 * The Echo of Ymiron (Babies being saved, mentions of going to a far-away place)
 * Ask CDev #1 Answers (Reveals the vrykul gave the humans supplies and the story of Tyr's battle with a great evil; doesn't name Galakrond because he wasn't a bad guy yet)
 * The Hyldsmeet (Describes the Hyldsmeet)
 * The Slithering Darkness (Questgiver flat-out states that the hyldnir proudly serve Thorim)
 * Dungeon Journal entry for Skadi the Ruthless (What happened to parents who hid their babies from Ymiron)
 * I will flesh it out if you do not.-- 03:27, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Nah, I'll spare you the trouble. I'll go put them on the page.

Earthen
Ho there!

What's the deal with the Earthen page? All the RPG info from other pages are separated so why not this one? Also, almost 10 RPG tags don't look very nice there. --Mordecay (talk) 19:38, 17 November 2015 (UTC)

Factional Icons
A discussion is taking place at Forum:Neutral Faction Icons about these icons, please make your opinion known. 19:14, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

Re-checking, you're right, at Blizzcon they said they were working on explaining the Dragonmaw name in Warlords of Draenor, plans that got dropped obviously, and showed slides of the Dragonfly, so some(myself included) just assumed they meant the Dragonmaw named themselves after the Dragonflies. Anyhow we can just change the Trivia to note that they may have been inspired by Dragonlike creatures like the Ravager wasps or Draenor Chimeras. Copperblast (talk) 01:04, 7 April 2016 (UTC)

Working on the Warcraft III articles together?
Greetings! Judging by your past interest in working on the Warcraft RTS articles, I was wondering if you would like to approach the next stage of improving the Warcraft III real-time strategy articles on Wowpedia together with myself and anyone else who might be interested?

Given the sheer size and scope of how many more units and buildings exist in Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos and Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne than in the previous RTS games, this seems like a project that should be handled by more than one person. So I was wondering if you had any specific plans or ideas for how to categorize and/or incorporate the numerous articles on buildings, units, etc. from the Warcraft III games into the website?

Let me know if you would be interested in discussing this topic further. Thanks. - Feeltriss (talk) 07:32, 21 April 2016 (UTC)


 * Hey man! Don't know if anyone is up to it, but I'm also willing to help. The only thing is that right now I'm working on Warcraft 2-related stuff, but when I'm done with the old game I'll jump to Warcraft 3. Xporc (talk) 09:03, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

Movie characters
Hi, now that Durotan is coming next week, I was thinking of what was previously said about the characters of the movieverse. Coobra agreed to have Name (movie) for their articles but I was thinking that with the expanded literature it could be Name (movie universe) (since some don't appear only in the movie). Thoughts?

Constant Revisions
I would like to ask that opinions and personal perspectives on controversial issues in the Lore on the Alliance-Horde War topics be left out. This is an information site, not a discussion forum. If you take issue with my wording, which I view as neutral, please take it up with me, first.

Reverts
What were the reasons of reverting my edits in the Quest:Volcanoth!? ? Do we have any normal policy page where it would be written which kind of content is not wanted here? What else can be written in this project apart from just rephrasing the original game documentation? If nothing, what is the point of this project when the game documentation exists? If obviously would prefer to write some guidelines page, or point me to the existing one. Experience of the most of contributions reverted over time is not very encouraging. Maenin (talk) 09:54, 11 July 2016 (UTC)

Re: Original research
Hi, thanks for the explanation. Since ShellShockLive has already reverted the same contribution in the past (and everyone else seemed fine with that), I just wanted to explain my point of view. Have a good day, Xnsyntfxynytnh (talk) 10:18, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

Page for lore discussions
Hi, Unfortunately, I'm still having issues with User:ShellShockLive. The cause is a lore subject. I suggested to him to enlarge our discussion on the matter to other users, so I'm wondering: is there, in this website, a page dedicated to settle lore debates? Thanks for your help. --Xnsyntfxynytnh (talk) 19:50, 11 December 2016 (UTC)


 * Discussing edits for a specific page generally go on that page's talk page. --Aquamonkeyeg (talk) 19:53, 11 December 2016 (UTC)
