What I think of your updates

It seems to have needed an update, which you provided. Charts are nice, so long as WarcraftRealms.com allows the re-posting of their copyrighted statistics on other sites. Server/realm pages are policed by their respective communities, so I really have no detailed opinion on the matter. Also, Wikia had nothing to do with our founding, they just currently host us (don't spread that aroundTongueout.gif).--SWM2448 22:09, March 6, 2010 (UTC)


Found! Can be used, "...for informational purposes only..." I'm being academic & not a paid personage of any shape, form, or likeness and/or if I was I would be typing much faster because my boss would be whoop'n my tailfeathers to get all the good stuff to you much faster (how's that for leagaleze on the legaleze?).

Alright. That is fine.--SWM2448 19:25, March 7, 2010 (UTC)

The terminus being in close proximity

I wish to help you. What were your problems with {{elinks-quest}} and {{reflist}}? The template "elinks-quest" takes a quest's numerical identification number (an easy way to find that is looking at Wowhead's URLs), and adds it to a larger piece of coding found on another page. The template "reflist" takes anything between any instances of <ref> and </ref> and compiles them at the bottom of the page. Did that help?--SWM2448 17:01, April 16, 2010 (UTC)

I'm slowly digesting why it would be good to: Limit text, control external links, limit user changes. 25% done and thinking it's a good thing. 75% still cranky. I'm getting there, but it's not happening today...lol. Readingwhatyousaid (talk) 15:07, April 20, 2010 (UTC)

Limitation is not the goal. Care to elaborate on that? The external links are "controlled" because consistency is desired.--SWM2448 16:18, April 20, 2010 (UTC)

Okay my limited understanding of viruses, malware, and evil-links leads me to believe that people can get into trouble on Wikia's by viewing them or writing on them due to hidden code and there should be control over this. Agreed. I just hadn't put too much thought into it. I'm just an part-time submitter and not privy to all the problems that go along with running a website. But wow, this must mean someone has to review all the changes. It's not a wiki then. You are now a Change Analyst. Grats! on the promotion. :) Readingwhatyousaid (talk) 15:43, May 8, 2010 (UTC)

You might want to report anything malicious that attacks your computer while viewing Wowpedia at Wowpedia:Bad ads. I am not sure what "problems" you are referring to, but yes, I try and glace at as many new edits as I can. I'm not sure how that makes Wowpedia not a wiki... Is there anything else I can help with?--SWM2448 17:46, May 8, 2010 (UTC)
