Anyone got the old stats? Would be cool to have those here as well... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by WoWWiki-Glam (talk · contr).

Caydiem quote[]

while i'm moving these to the right spelling (judgment rather than judgement), i wanted to ask if anyone knows the source on that Caydiem comment? i need to know if it was actually typed like that and should be left in with a [sic] note, or if the spelling was just a mistake introduced by an editor -- Eithris (talk) 22:49, 12 August 2017 (UTC)

I'm not sure when this was changed, but I'm preeetty certain it was called "judgement" for many years. All the level 80 version pages are currently called "judgement" aswell, but have been changed to "judgment" at some point. It seems to me that Blizzard tries to use american spelling, over british English. There are still a great amount of items/NPCs ect. with both "grey" and "gray" aswell though. It seems weird to start changing one word around, but not others.. But that's Blizzard for you! PeterWind (talk) 02:54, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
ahh, i started wondering if that might be the case when i was poking around for a source & found a whole lot of "Judgement" on places like allakhazam and old official sources :0 i'll have to add it to the bit i put on that in the notes section, and assume that any older external references or spoken quotes (as i'm starting to think the caydiem comment was since i can't find it in any forum archives) prefer the Judgement spelling
i wonder if there's any way to find out exactly when they changed it in-game. that'd be a neat detail to include -- Eithris (talk) 11:20, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
Not sure. The page for Spell holy righteousfury [Judgment] says that the name change for that spell happened in patch 5.0.4. It wouldn't be unthinkable that the other changes happened here aswell, but not a direct confirmation either. PeterWind (talk) 11:38, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
Cata had it with the British spelling. --Mordecay (talk) 11:46, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
Link was apparently here but doesn't exist on any archive as far as I can tell. --PcjWowpedia admin (TDrop me a line!C207,729 contributions and counting) 13:57, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
hmmm. going by the thread number, caydiem's post should be here in between those fangtooth posts. maybe she posted in thread 553697 at a later point that the archive doesn't have...
ah well, i suppose. it's lookin like that link is as close as we're gonna get. thank you for finding it :) -- Eithris (talk) 19:15, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
