Citation corruption
Hi there. When editing, try to avoid "citation corruption" such as this edit, which implies that it states on page 7 of Elminster's Ecologies (Cormanthor) that the Semberflow runs from Lake Ashaba to the River Ashaba. Instead, you should add that statement at the end, with a different citation. As it is, you didn't leave a citation for this, so I have marked it as citation needed.

 * You asked how to cite a map. If the map is a stand-alone product, it ought to have a citation template just like a book does. For example, The City of Waterdeep Trail Map. Otherwise (which is more likely) you can use the citation template for the book or product in which the map is contained, and just give the page number as the map, for example Map. I'm not sure if Shining South actually has a map; it's just an example! If the product contains more than one map, it is best to specify which map. I hope that helps!

Changes to the years category link
I have been helping by filling the gaps of the years.

I also noticed that you have been doing changes to the category link in batches, but i cannot understand the purpose of adding that number.

Can you clarify? Pruano 00:09, October 15, 2010 (UTC)


 * Never mind, i figured it out; will do it from now on.


 * Next time, its probably best to point to that policy page, its not obvious, especially with the category auto-complete. Pruano 00:20, October 15, 2010 (UTC)

Citing Dungeon magazine
Hi there. The best way to cite Dungeon magazine is to create a citation template for the actual article you are citing. See Category:Dungeon citation templates and basically copy one of those (Cite dungeon/The Muster of Morach Tor is a good one) with the name of the article you want to cite. That way, if you don't supply an exact page number with your citation, the template knows the page range in the magazine, but you can still provide a page number for extra accuracy. See Baeniff Tor for an example of such a template in action. Fw190a8 (talk &middot; contr) 22:40, October 15, 2010 (UTC)

Interlanguage links
The 1362 TZ is a link to the German version of this page. The link should be placed beneath the categories in an article. The wiki has German, Finnish and possibly other translations available. It's only relevant if there actually is a German translation of the page, of course, otherwise it will link to a page not found. Fw190a8 (talk &middot; contr) 09:32, October 16, 2010 (UTC)

Quotes on reference names
Hi - could you please put quotes around the names of the references you're writing? For example, rather than, it would be. Thanks! Fw190a8 (talk &middot; contr) 22:02, October 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * With regards to the benefit quoting ref names brings, it's a good point. To the wiki, it does make no difference. In HTML, the language used to make web pages on the Internet, the double quotes are used to surround attributes like this because it allows you to have spaces, punctuation and other characters inside the attribute (the reference name, in this case). The quotes would help in any situation where someone had cause to edit the name of your reference and introduced a character that might cause a problem. Of course, if they're editing the name of your reference, they might as well put the quotes around it at the same time anyway, but then again, someone might forget. It is a pretty minor thing, of course! ;) Fw190a8 (talk &middot; contr) 10:14, October 17, 2010 (UTC)

Minus signs
Hi - wanted to ask if you'd like to contribute to Forum:Consensus on minus signs as it appears there's some dispute over what formatting to use and I'd love to get it cleared up! Fw190a8 (talk &middot; contr) 16:11, October 18, 2010 (UTC)
