Abarat's Folly
Not sure how to contact BadCatMan, but they blocked an edit I made to the Thar page in the Forgotten Realms Wiki. It's likely cuz I'm new, and don't know how to add reasons for changes. I'm hoping they can unblock me.

I made the change because "Abarat's Folly" has absolute no relationship to Thar. Abarat's Folly is on the north end of Cormanthyr, on the opposite side of the Moonsea, and has absolute to relation to Thar. It was a stub that has no business being on Thar's page.

I hope they can unblock me. Thanks, WindyJMusic.


 * Hi! Thanks for posting a message to discuss it. If you need to contact anyone here, just use the Talk links you should see after people's names. I don't use Discord much. And to fill in the edit summary, look for the field labeled 'Describe what you changed' or 'Summary' below the editing window, depending on your choice of editor. We recommend using Source Editor (set it in Preferences or choose it from the drop-down Edit menu or at the top of the editing page) as it makes it easier to learn wiki code while Visual Editor doesn't work at all well with templates.


 * Yeah, I blocked and reverted because I figured it was vandalism. But now I checked and I agree, I don't know why it was added to the Thar page, so I've removed it and unblocked you. Twas Abarat's Folly and my folly. :) Thanks for explaining and helping out! BadCatMan (talk) 01:36, 15 November 2020 (UTC)

Note About Tyr
Hi WindyJMusic, thank you for your additions to the wiki. I did revert one note you added to the Tyr article, as we cannot assume certain events within a certain time frame unless they are supported by text. While we usually include notes to reconcile differences in text or expand on deductive reasoning, I don't think the text supported the assumption you included on that page. Personally I would love to see some more specific dates given for events between the 3 and 4 editions, unfortunately they are somewhat uncommon. Ruf (talk) 15:51, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

Hi Ruf, I was using the dates that were already provided in the article coupled with the text "decades earlier". However, I definitely concede that it is rather subjective, and we have little definition for events between editions. Sure would be nice, but I concede my edit was too subjective to keep.
