Creating New Articles

When creating new articles, please fill in SOMETHING for the comment field before submitting the new entry, so we can cut down on the spam you can see on the recent changes page, since the new version of MediaWiki seems to clip a portion of the new article as its default comment. I'll look into disabling this 'feature' at some point, but in the mean time just add something, even if it's only "New article". Thanks. Oliver ^Talk 16:34, 25 May 2007 (EDT)

Adding some adventurers

Hi, just wanted to run this by some folks, make sure no one had any substantial objection. I'd like to create some barebones adventurer profiles for some more famous older characters that aren't in the game anymore for historical purposes. For instance I'd like to do a "Strom O'Berin" entry and mention that he was an empath and the first PC to reach level 100. Throw up an old look I have saved of him, etc. Hopefully people with more info might come along and add to it. How does everyone feel about that? I'm personally for getting as much info up here as possible because that's the kind of stuff I enjoy reading when I come here. -KANYDA 07:00, 9 May 2007 (EDT)

You are more than welcome to do it. We like information, provided that it is accurate, even if it is about old adventurers that don't play anymore. Heh. - Andy ^talk 10:34, 9 May 2007 (EDT)

Also, please be sure to separate in- and out-of-character information about characters in articles about them. Something like a "Behind the Scenes" section for the OOC stuff would be good. Oliver ^Talk 12:51, 9 May 2007 (EDT)

I like the idea too. And welcome aboard, KANYDA. Adam ^talk 19:23, 9 May 2007 (EDT)
