Board Thread:Community Announcements and Events/@comment-4544033-20150802012550

Greetings friends, I hope you all have had a good week. Not only do we have this weeks events to discuss, but as the first of the month, we also have the results of our FA and MOTM nominations.


 * We have reached a positive understanding with the Heroes wiki. We now have a template on the bottom of our heroes articles (on their wiki) that list other elder scrolls articles. It also contains an external link that brings people here. The agreement with them is that any wiki who assist in making sure "their" articles are in good shape can add a template like this. You can help by going over Elder scroll characters and making sure nothing is plagiarized or false. If you want to create an article, they must be a undeniable hero, such as the player characters. You can visit there wiki here.  I am thankful that we have a chance to work with them, and I hope that we can help each other with this.


 * The Fantasy food truck is here, the top four food items will be on a food truck in NY at comic con. I ask you all vote for the best foods, including the Sweet roll. If you have not voted, you can do so here.


 * The community has agreed to adapt the trivia policy, the changes are as follows.
 * All trivia of speculative nature must be referenced.
 * No big text chunks should go in the trivia section (referred to previously as "large fan theories") e.g. "Trivia points should be small facts or tidbits of information. If you find yourself writing a paragraph for a single point, it is probably too long for the trivia section and should either not be added or shortened down".
 * Trivia of speculative nature must be written in a style that makes very clear to readers that it is unconfirmed information, regardless of it having (a) reference(s).
 * The addition of an objective point to help prevent 'nonsense' or 'obvious' additions to the "Trivia" section e.g. "A trivia point should not be repeating things that are already written elsewhere in the article, and should contribute new information as opposed to highlighting information that is self-evident."


 * Mjoll the Lioness is our newest FA. You can find her on the front page of the wiki.


 * User:Ser Pouce-a-lot is this months MOTM. Ser Pouce-a-lot has put a lot into this wiki, and I hope we have him here to continue his work for as long as possible.

Moot synopsis.
 * Went over the food truck battle, and our current placement in it.
 * We closed the Trivia Re-eval, and supported the changes 5-0
 * We closed the Skyrim help board CT, this has been left open longer then we normally prefer to keep them, and it was a clear consensus.
 * Discussed the idea of remodeling our affiliates layout, to give more space to active wikis and to add our newer partners
 * We talked about how we can help our new friends at the Heroes wiki and the Alien Species wiki

Well, I think that is all. Until next week, I wish you all good luck, and happy editing.-Cheatcodechamp (talk) 01:25, August 2, 2015 (UTC)
