Past Tense and References
Hi. Thanks for your additions to the wiki, but please note the information I've posted above in the welcome message. For one thing, please write in past tense, like in a novel (even if other text on the page is in present tense, we haven't gotten it all upgraded yet). In particular, please provide references for all your additions to the wiki. That is, you have to give the book and page number it came from. If you're not sure how to do that, look at other pages or references on the page you're working on, or else ask one of us for assistance. — BadCatMan (talk) 12:25, December 4, 2016 (UTC)

Hi. You've made another page, vegepygmy, but still not provided a reference for it. This is a requirement of all lore on the wiki. Which book did you take this information from? Who in the world came up with the vegepygmy anyway? As you haven't yet responded to my message above, I've blocked you in order to get your attention. Please respond here to let me know you understood the above requirements, ask me any questions you have, and I'll unblock you. — BadCatMan (talk) 11:31, December 19, 2016 (UTC)

Because you still have not provided sources and have ignored our communication with you, I am going to block you until you kindly respond to us. ~ Lhynard (talk) 14:42, January 20, 2017 (UTC)


 * Sorry i didn't respond. it's just that i don't check my page very often. As for the fact that I haven't been placing sources, It,s simply the fact that I don't know how, or how to find out. hope you reply soon.


 * The answer depends on whether you use the Visual Editor or edit the source code directly. Which one do you prefer? ~ Lhynard (talk) 19:12, January 25, 2017 (UTC)


 * I'm not certain, but i think i just edit the source code directly.


 * Ok, then.


 * First, references go between what we call ref tags:.


 * The "name" is just a name you or another editor makes up to represent this particular reference. For example, you might see: . Now, any other time that someone in the article wants to cite page 1 of the Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting, they simply use this tag:  . (Note here the slash.)


 * In other words, only the first time a reference is needed do you use ; after that, you just use.


 * Now, almost all of the time, someone else will have already made a "template" for a reference. (It is not often that you will reference a book that no one else has already referenced!) Templates make things much easier, and they keep things consistent. Citation templates all look like this:


 * For example, typing  will result in "" being printed in the reference section of the page.


 * If you are truly editing in the source editor, the wiki should try to autocomplete for you, so that, if you start typing  it will make a bunch of suggestions, and you can click one to finish typing for you. But don't forget to add the   and the page number!


 * Does that make sense?

I think so, thanks.

Talk pages
Please use the Talk page of an article rather than trying to communicate through the edit summary. We don't want the edit history being cluttered with meaningless edits as people chat back and forth. The Talk page for Dwarvish dictionary is just Talk:Dwarvish dictionary and I have responded to you there. &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 15:51, February 25, 2017 (UTC)

Dwarven
Thanks for adding the new Dwarvish words! ~ Lhynard (talk) 03:42, March 6, 2017 (UTC)

Please provide sources
Hi. Once again, please provide sources for whatever you add to the wiki. At Noanar's Hold, you need to say which book or whatever gives the information about the Hunt Lords. Please check and do this, and ask if you have any questions. — BadCatMan (talk) 10:59, April 13, 2017 (UTC)
