Article/Edits at Risk for Deletion

Hi there, ERICW. In reviewing some of the recent updates, I saw that you have made edits to Khalypso (prime), which was originally created and edited by another user. Your edits happened back in October of last year, and there have since been additional edits by a third account. It is not clear who is the player behind Khalypso.

There is no indication on the article's Discussion/Talk tab that Khalypso's player gave you permission to edit a character page on their behalf. Gswiki:Policy prohibits users from editing character pages unless the character is theirs or they have been given permission by that character's player to make those edits. If you do have permission to edit this character page, you will need to indicate this by clearly stating it on its Discussion/Talk tab, Talk:Khalypso (prime), that you have been given permission to do so by the player. Simply noting that in the edit reason for an article is not enough for Gswiki:Policy. Alternatively, Khalypso's player can put that information on the discussion page. When adding that information, please make sure to add ~~~~ at the end of your comments, which will automatically add a "signature" with your user name, plus the date and time of when your edit was made.

If you are Khalypso's player and you have given permission to anyone else to edit the character page, then you will need to clearly state that on Talk:Khalypso (prime). If you are using multiple accounts to edit a character, you will still need to include that permissions statement. Alternatively, those accounts with permission to edit it can add that information on your behalf. Edits made prior to July, 2023, are grandfathered into an earlier version of Gswiki:Policy for character pages and will not be reverted or deleted.

If that information is not added within 7 days, your edits to the character page will be deleted from the wiki. Please do not remove the {{moddelete}} template from any flagged character page. Another moderator or I will remove that template after your updates have been reviewed to ensure that they meet Gswiki:Policy requirements. If you have any questions about this process or need more information about the updated policy for editing character pages, please reach out to the wiki team on the Gemstone Discord forum's wiki thread. Thank you for understanding. HOST-GSKEBECHET (talk) 09:56, 23 May 2025 (CDT)
