Are we ok with edits like this? Seems Amh3jhw6 (talk · contr) has been making several interesting additions of "flavor quotes" to the top of articles and using Jinx clothing articles as sources for said quotes... I feel as though this is nothing but advertisements for their Warcraft items. Sssssssssssssssssssssssss For Pony! (^Sssss/_Slithered) 07:20, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

Well, as licensed products, presumably they went through Blizzard, including said quotes.

Seeing that you've already started reverting the edits, I'll lay off for now unless there's conensus for their use.--Amh3jhw6 (talk) 07:31, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

I'm holding off, but I've only reverted two of them so far, cause a paladin quote and a brewmaster quote shouldn't necessarily appear on a specific paladin order or specific brewmaster. Sssssssssssssssssssssssss For Pony! (^Sssss/_Slithered) 07:46, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

While licensed products might involve Blizzard approving the design (of the t-shirts, etc), I don't think it also includes approval of what is essentially marking text on a storefront website, so I would suggest not using these pages as a source for flavour quotes or lore-related trivia notes. — foxlit (talk) 20:49, 22 January 2014 (UTC)
