Re: Regions
I guess so; I added that because I saw the region category as a lore category like the Lore Cities one. I added it to those since they won't appear in another game or for some in online for quite some time. But I totally see what you are getting at and sorry for the inconvenience. --Vincentius1 (talk) 18:10, June 10, 2017 (UTC)

Guidelines
Back when I first joined this Wikia we were allowed to have roleplay in discussions and not every little thing was deleted. What's with all these new rules that aren't even necessary? I don't really think the new guidelines are as effective and fair as they used to be. Back when Lilith was here.

TES V: Skyrim for Switch
I wasn't quite certain how to handle the Nintendo Switch release for Skyrim, so I created a separate page (The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (Nintendo Switch)) after seeing The Elder Scrolls Travels: Oblivion (Mobile). I'm not sure if that's how you want it handled. Raylan13 ( talk ) 20:03, June 13, 2017 (UTC)

Imperial Library
Thanks for the advice, Vincent also informed me, not sure why you did as well, but I'm grateful. My times of full-on anti IL is over, though I'm still a bit iffy about Out-Of-Game material, I've started using the IL a bit recently, for example, on the Orsimer page, I've listed several sources which state they are beast -- all found on the IL, especially the ingame descriptions helped out.

Alliance War and Facebook
Hey Atv,

I found a text on the ESO Facebook page regarding the three alliances, the only thing that bugs me is, well, the fact that it's on FB. I don't know if an article is allowed to be created on posts like that. And it's not like an "answer" post, it's just an explanation of what happens to the alliance, their strenghts, weaknesses, etc. Care to let me know if articles on those pages are allowed? I know the Loremaster's Archive is, but this is different.

Thank you :) It took me 2 months to complete and got kinda tedious at times, but I'm quite happy with the final product. The Cat Master (talk) 21:43, June 19, 2017 (UTC)

Badges
Random thought before I go to bed (yay at getting up at 5am): we should add some non-default badges, kinda like what the Russkies did here. We could also add some meme-y images in there, which could maybe attract some new editors and show we're not totally square and stuff (unlike a certain fish-based wiki) --Shockstorm (talk) 03:03, June 20, 2017 (UTC)

List of Stolen Items
That page isn't really necessary as the stolen items sub-subpages i made covers all items. However, can you hold on to it for the time being, as i could use it for information of locations of a few of the items that is currently missing from my pages. I'll let you know when i don't need it anymore. The Cat Master (talk) 17:41, June 21, 2017 (UTC)

Creating a new page
Hey Atv,

When creating a few Legends card pages today, I accidentally clicked on "Legends" instead of "card", and while that was nothing too bad, I couldn't help but notice something. Where as every other "category" (Online, Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim, Daggerfall, etc.) lead to the game, clicking on the "Legends" link leads to this page: http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Legends Fairly certain that's not supposed to happen, I don't know if I can fix it, but I think you can.

Thanks in advance, Blademaster Jauffre (talk) 21:43, June 26, 2017 (UTC)


 * You're welcome.

Legends neutral category
Hello, I found two categories that contains neutral cards, both of them need to be created: Category:Legends: Neutral Cards and Category:Legends: Neutrals. So which one I can to create and from other move all articles? --Rupuzioks (talk) 17:00, June 27, 2017 (UTC)

Confirmation
Het Atv, Carlo and Bronk have already shared their POV on this topic, but it still doesn't fit right with me.

Sure, no problemo. I will have it done as soon as possible. --Vincentius1 (talk) 20:53, June 28, 2017 (UTC)


 * Hey Atv, I was thinking that I would just do descriptions of the separate regions and be done with it, but I feel like there is something more that I could add, I'm just not sure what. I myself have never played Morrowind, so I'm not extremely familiar with the setting. I wanted to ask if there is something I should add or not. Thanks, I appreciate the help! --Vincentius1 (talk) 00:11, July 22, 2017 (UTC)

Off-topic post
Hi, I'm not sure if this is such a big thing, but I've noticed that in the discussions, the off-topic post is been used by a few users solely to get their personal post count up. Aramithius tried to direct people to the chat and this one user said very clearly in the chat room, that he won't talk in there cause replies don't count so he goes back writing to the off-topic so he can reach 1000 posts. This is not a monumental problem and it is off-topic post... But it still shouldn't be used like this, right? --Prophecy of the Urine (talk) 17:11, June 30, 2017 (UTC)

Legends Stub Categories
Hey Atv,

As usual I have another quick stupid question. I noticed that the Stub template doesn't have any parameter for Cards under Legends, so I took a look at it and long story short I noticed that a lot of the Legends pages are using Legends - Which doesn't exist on the stub category thing - While other parts of the legends stubs are being put under Legends etc. Should we work on making all of the stub pages under Card, after adding it to the Stub template, or should we sort out all of the different stubs under character etc, or something else entirely? Sorry if that doesn't make sense, I'm kinda sleepy. Thanks.

PS - Forgot to mention, you might want to relock the Stub template if you still want to do that when all of this is over. As it is anons can edit it and since it's on so many pages, well, you get it.


 * Sweet, works with me. Don't forget about locking the template if you wanna do that. Oh, and if you don't mind, hit the request database dump button on Statistics if you get a second. Thanks

Re: Special:UnusedImages
Thanks, also on the topic of special pages:
 * Special:BrokenRedirects has only one entry that I don't know if it is okay to add something on the talk page just to fix it.
 * Special:DoubleRedirects has entries I can't fix, and lately there were added a lot of user's double redirects.
 * Special:Wantedfiles is somewhat broken, not sure if it is just for me or for others too; list of 20 is showing only 7 entries, list of 50 is showing only 23 entries, etc.; also there are some entries that do not link to any pages, or some discussion/blog posts have red links that I can't fix. --Rupuzioks (talk) 20:01, July 9, 2017 (UTC)

Re: Blockquotes
Yeah, I was wondering if I should be doing it that way instead, I had seen some pages use it but some didn't. Thanks for pointing that out. Should I go back and change the ones I've already done? --Poisoned apples (talk) 23:55, July 11, 2017 (UTC)

Legends
I am confused about all this because lot of cards of playable races are not added to characters category and there is no guidelines on how to categorize Legends cards. The Cat Master says that all character cards can be added to creatures category. DreamSoulshine (talk) 22:03, July 14, 2017 (UTC)
 * This card can steal an enemy creature and this card can kill Undead. I have neither cards to check how they work, but I never seen Miraak stealing my Undead cards, so I'm not exactly sure if Undead and Creatures are also different types.
 * I personally think that only cards that are named after a character should be considered a character cards. If you'll give me permission, then I'll delete cards from character category that don't fit this description.

The Halls of Colossus
I've noticed that the two pages, "The Halls of Colossus (Quest)" (The quest page), and "Halls of Colossus" (The location page) are inconsistent. While I would change them, I wanted to make sure it was the green-light to do so. All other pages are marked as "(Location)" and "(Quest)" due to their similar names, but the Halls of Colossus seems to be the exception due to the "The" being removed from the name. Any opinion if I should move the page so the location page adds the "The" and in turn I can add (Location), or...? —Nehpys ("AlyMar1994") (Talk) 20:04, July 23, 2017 (UTC)

Partitioning of Arena's quest articles
Hi Atvelonis. During one of my ocasional visits to the Wiki I noticed that the articles of Arena's main questline have been partitioned into separate articles for each dungeon. I believe this may be a mistake. The contemporary sites I researched back then (ex. Russian ElderScrolls.net and UESP ) and the 1994 FAQ  assert no such questline structure (the FAQ says there are nine quests in total, not counting the Imperial Dungeons), neither do the archives (GLOBAL.bsa plus the journal) and the two guides (Official Game Guide and Codex Scientia). I believe the story is clearly presented in ten quests (one for each chaos fragment plus the Imperial Dungeon and the Imperial Palace) and the partitioning of the mentioned articles is misguiding. Thanks. Diogo Morales (talk) 21:01, July 25, 2017 (UTC)

Out of game references
I tried to add an OOG source link from TIL to the Calcelmo's Stone Rubbing page, but for some reason I can't get it to work when I add group="OOG" to the reference code. I looked on other pages that have out of game sources and they use . The other pages with OOG also had  in the code as well. I tried giving the referance names like Translation and CalcelmoTranslation, but to no avail as well. No matter what I tried I get the cite error in the big red letters instead of the link to the source, unless I use without any of the other code, but that puts the source link above the template.

Hey Atv,

I don't want another edit war to erupt, nor do I want two pages to get locked, so can I get your input on the Torygg and Traditional Nordic Duel pages?

Question
Dear Mr Atvelonis,

I have both a question and a comment, so i`ll be as quick as i can! :)

Comment : On the Skyrim Civil War page : (http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Skyrim_Civil_War) i came across a small grammatical error.

In the Trivia section first sentence, it says : As you can see it says Storomcloaks instead of Stormcloaks. A minor mistake which i hope you can rectify, or me myself given the authority to do so.
 * The starting hold positions for those that support the (Storomcloaks) and those who support the Empire are similar to the split between East and West Skyrim which occurred during the War of Succession.

Question : I have been reading and loving this wiki and the TES lore with a serious passion, and i was hoping i could be given the competence to write, and edit. The sole reason being that i want to help this community and be a part of it, since i love and highly appreciate what you guys have been doing.

Thank you for your time,  have a nice day :)

CW
Atv,

Do you think I truly care for some fictional characters? It might appear as such, but that's because I look at it from an objective pov, I care for the accuracy for the wiki, spreading bias or lies is not part of that.

Anyway, you said "I would still be hesitant to cite the French version unless necessary.", but isn't a case where the English (and German) definition doesn't give a clear answer a case of neccesity? I mean, a word litterally meaning floored in another official TES language does not sound like death does it? And it's not like the French version - especially that sentence - gives a different meaning, rahter, it provides the accurate English (and German) one.

As for the trivia, I don't think comparing two Jarls fighting for the throne is comparable to a mage and a criminal fighting... But maybe that's just me.

Do with this as you please, I won't edit the page if you disagree with what I just said here, just thought I'd give my final two cents on the matter before moving on. Blademaster Jauffre (talk) 23:13, August 10, 2017 (UTC)


 * So you mean like, (possibly) seperating duels for a throne and duels for honor on the page?

Archiving talk page
Hey Atv,

I was trying to archive my talk page, and I assumed that clicking the archive button would automatically send everything from the original page into the archived one, but it didn't. Am I suppose to copy and paste it into the archived page or what. I'm just confused. Sorry if this is an obvious answer, I just don't want to screw it up in some way. Thanks for the help. --Vincentius1 (talk) 02:34, August 14, 2017 (UTC)

Legends updates
Heya, Atvelonis!

Almost all the cards have been updated. All that remains is to go through the base set to make sure they're all there. After that, a polish to make sure everything is represented correctly (type, subtype, categories, etc.), but someone else might have to do those things. Apparently there's some disagreement about using the drop-down menu for image categorization, despite it being pretty clear the drop-down menu is supposed to be an option (you can see my response here).

Rather than cause any further issues, I may elect to just bow out and leave the remainder of the work in someone else's capable hands. For the most part, the team here has been pretty accommodating and helpful, and I appreciate their effort. Raylan13 ( talk ) 15:50, August 31, 2017 (UTC)


 * All righty, will do ;) How would you prefer I handle adding in the licensing template? Drop-down creates more work on your end, manually adds more work on mine (copy pasta); I'll go either way, though, so whichever is going to work best with any rule changes/tweaking you might have down the line. Raylan13 ( talk ) 16:24, September 5, 2017 (UTC)


 * Sounds good ;) I'll drag that link to my own page for future use and take that "assembly line" suggestion. Raylan13 ( talk ) 15:10, September 6, 2017 (UTC)

Volunteer Curators
Hi Atvelonis,

I'm contacting you as you are the most recently active admin.

I just posted a blog post about Volunteer Curators here on Elder Scrolls Wiki and I'm wondering if it'd be ok with you and the rest of the admin team if I posted a community message about it (like a site-wide message, but just for this wiki). We're hoping to attract Elder Scrolls news fanatics to help round out our Elder Scrolls coverage on Fandom.com.

Thanks! -- Sannse (help forum | blog) 19:11, September 1, 2017 (UTC)

Dialogue
Hey Atv,

I saw Crusader's comment on my talkpage, and thought to take it a step further, by completely seperating disposition dialogue. I think this way it's easier for others to know where to add dialogue to these kind of pages, or where to find it.

To show what I mean, I changed the dialogue on Neville's page, or at least, the way it's ordered. Do you think something like how it is now would work? http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Neville

Please, let me know what you think, Blademaster Jauffre (talk) 12:43, September 2, 2017 (UTC)

On an unrelated note, I may reapply for patroller in the future (probably around Christmas time). Though, a couple of things have to happen before then: I need a laptop/or computer, more interest in editing (as you can see in the last two months, my interest has been renewed), but time will tell if I stay interested in editing and get a laptop. Have a nice one. Starkiller131 (talk) 00:06, September 22, 2017 (UTC)

Moderator (Staff) Page
Hey Atv. I noticed recently that the Moderators page doesn't mention the discussions much at all, which isn't really correct. I believe that it would be best to make sure that it says, "forums and discussions," every time it should be noted. Unfortunately, I cannot edit the page, but I'd gladly do it right now; I shouldn't take too long. Can you unprotect it for a moment? My OCD is killing me ;)
 * Thank you! Oh, and I also noticed that the Chat Moderator page still says that the user must be nominated, which is, of course, outdated. Just thought I'd bring it up.
