Talk:Kara-Tur

My GOD this article is ugly *twitches* Zerak-Tul 03:55, 18 December 2006 (UTC)


 * I have attempted to clean this article up as best I can. The main problems were caused by copying directly from Wikipedia, and the out-of-game stance the article took. Fw190a8 02:42, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Prestige classes

 * Write articles for each prestige class
 * There are some further prestige classes commented out in the wiki code that need checking

I added a bit on the page for Shou Lung; it was from wikipedia but at least its something. Should we be including references to real-world countries though? Johnnyriot999 08:08, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Old Wikipedia data

 * Because it would too much work for me alone;
 * Because I worked so much on the Wikipedia entries;
 * Because I believe my intense researches are still of use (especially the labourously collected external links);
 * Because I do not know enough of the forgottenrealms Wikia lore to dare or wish to intervene directly anymore,

I just paste in the permalink of what I believe to be most exhaustive Wikipedia entry on the topic:

Most complete permalink for Kara-Tur

(starting point: Geographical index of Toril on 18th of March 2007)

Could some kind soul take care of extracting the data somewhere it would not be deleted again because of “lack of notability”? Note that a lot of content may be duplicate and also has to be rewritten. Some link shouls also be checked (think archive.org] if nothing else), Wizards of the Coast not being that serious with permanency of data.

Fanonicity
Kara-tur Map at the top contains Fanon.
 * What is Fanon?--192.44.63.165 11:38, February 11, 2014 (UTC)
 * From TFWiki: "[Fanon] refers to so-called "facts" that a significant number of fans think are true, but for which there is no evidence in any official material. "


 * Or fanon can be fan-made lore that many fans accept, either believing it to be canon, or just because they like it.
 * In any case, all the maps on this page currently come from popular fan mapmaker Markustay, here. We've generally accepted them for their high quality and accuracy, with his permission, but try not to let some of his non-canon additions slip it. It's a bit difficult rooting them out though. — BadCatMan (talk) 08:14, February 12, 2014 (UTC)
