Talk:Prismal the Outrageous

Source
A quick Google search points to an article in Polyhedron Issue #63, Volume 11, No. 7 as a source. Can someone with the issue at hand verify this? Savras (talk) 21:11, September 30, 2012 (UTC)

Formatting & Crunch
Hi. Can those editors working on this article, User:Conanx100 and User:66.119.59.110 (unless you're the same person?) please write it in the standard format for character articles on this wiki? For example, check out Artemis Entreri for ideas and arrangement. You can practice on it yourself, but if you have any questions, please ask any of us here.

In addition, please don't include the "crunchy" aspects, all the rules and stats. Only basic details like race, classes and levels, and alignment are all that's needed. The "fluff" (personality, history, description) are the focus here. Can you also please confirm Prismal's levels? They seem utterly insane to me. :)

Finally, I hope you're not just copying this from the sourcebook, as that would be copyright infringement and would get your article deleted.

Thank you. -- BadCatMan (talk) 03:35, October 9, 2012 (UTC)


 * I copied discussion over from User talk:BadCatMan.

Nope, Prismal is one of the most powerful beings in the entire AD&D fantasy universe and calls several crystal spheres home. His levels are correct. I don't copy straight from books so there is no infringement, I paraphrase. I am going along with the No-crunch rule as close as possible, but have added these stats for the ease of the reader since the reference is nearly unobtainable. I have tried to cut down and clean up the article now for about 30 minutes, but you keep adding things to it while I am, so it reverts right back to where I started. If you could just let me do a little more work on it and take a look at it later, that would be great, thanks... -- User:Conanx100


 * Sorry about that, but you seemed to have stopped, so I thought I'd quickly add in some notes and the reference thing you were having trouble with. I find an easier way to create an article is to write it whole in a Word document, or if you want to see how it's looking, try the Preview button rather than Publish all the time. I'll come along later when you're done and make any necessary changes then. Thanks for getting in contact. -- BadCatMan (talk) 04:37, October 9, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi there. I worked on the formatting and such for you, adding a person template, sections, and categories. I also adjusted your text to past tense, as per Forgotten Realms Wiki:Remove wiki from timeline. I also removed the crunchy aspects; the entire spell-list didn't seem necessary. So, take a look, see how it all goes together, and ask if you have any questions. -- BadCatMan (talk) 12:04, October 9, 2012 (UTC)
