User talk:NaimedWiz

Welcome!
Well met, NaimedWiz, and welcome to the Forgotten Realms Wiki! Thank you for your edit to the Helm's Hold page. We hope you like the place and decide to stay and explore the Forgotten Realms with us.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful, that explain who we are and what we do and how we do it. You should find these a useful reference, or maybe they could give you some ideas for something to do.

It's our goal to be a complete and reliable encyclopaedia of the official Forgotten Realms in all its forms, and a valuable resource for all Realms fans, players, and dungeon masters. As such, we do not accept fan fiction, homebrew lore, and player characters. All information added to this wiki must be attributed to an official source. Information must not be copied from sourcebooks and novels. Please always give a source for your information, and explain what you've done in the "summary" box.

We hope you enjoy editing here. Please sign your messages on Talk and Forum pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, please leave a message on my talk page or ask any of the administrators about things.

Again, welcome! Happy scribing!

Welcome and Warning
Thanks for adding that Helm's Hold page, but I have to ask, is it written in your own words? If any of that material is copied from the sourcebook, it will have to be deleted. We cannot jeopardize our wiki with copyright infringements, so please read the polices linked above, especially Forgotten Realms Wiki:Plagiarism and Forgotten Realms Wiki:Past tense policy. You will enjoy working on the wiki much more if you get to know how things are done around here. Please ask questions if you feel the need. &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 20:13, November 5, 2015 (UTC)


 * Hey dave, sorry for the Helms Hold Article, kinda forgot about copyright. Changed it to something basic. What about the maps in the map section? Are they copyright bound too?
 * Thanks!


 * No worries, I have deleted the article's history so the copyrighted material is not publicly available. We are still in the process of cleaning up our image library, but maps and all other images should have a copyright tag on the File: page describing the license under which we are able to use it. In short, if WotC releases it on-line, then we can usually use it without modification. Otherwise, it has to be a low-resolution scan, usually cropped out of a bigger image, not contain any text (other than map designations), and fall under the Fair Use guidelines.
 * Please don't forget to sign your comments with four tildes ( ~ ) so it puts your name and the timestamp on your posts, like you see here: &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 21:29, November 5, 2015 (UTC)
