Chronicle II retcon

According to the new book Murmur wasn't summoned two years before TBC, but in the original explosion in the war against the draenei, by Teron Gorefiend. Do we wait until Chronicle III says if there's another explosion or do we change the articles that mention two Bone Wastes and Murmur (Bone Wastes, Terokkar Forest, Murmur, Codex of Blood). It seems to retcon what The Codex of Blood and one or two npc said in TBC. Whitrix. 16:35, 23 March 2017 (UTC)

Nah, it's been retconed, no need to wait for the next book. Make senses considering the Bone Wastes already existed in Warcraft II. Xporc (talk) 16:39, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
Okay, for now I'll delete only the minor references. In two or three days I'll get the book and rewrite the sections needed if no one else has done it. Whitrix. 16:53, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
Keep both versions, but note the current one.--SWM2448 16:54, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
I'm absolutely new to editing. I don't understand what you mean by keeping both and noting the current one. Also, thanks for the welcome. Whitrix. 17:00, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
When something is retconned, we do not throw away the old lore, we document both.--SWM2448 17:37, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
You mean showing the current lore on the main page and adding a Trivia or Notes section at the bottom with the retconned content? Like 'before Chronicles II was out, it was stated there were two explosions etc'? Whitrix. 17:49, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
Sure.--SWM2448 18:03, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
