Hey everybody. For those who read the weekly update, you know we have been talking to some other wikis, mainly the Alien species wiki, about helping them. Well yesterday something came up, and UESP (that's "unofficial elder scrolls page") notified them that several of their elder scroll articles contained plagiarism.

I agreed to help them rewrite their articles. The articles will not be lore filled or large like ours, but should still contain a brief snip-it about the race in question. If a few of you wish to help that is fine. However keep in mind their wiki does not have the same links we do, and we should avoid overstepping in what we do to the articles unless they give permission. After we help build their articles I can talk to them more about what we can do to help each other, but until then lets just remove the plagiarized writings.

I have also talked to the Admin at Answers wiki and he has said that if we answer the elder scrolls related questions, we can leave relevant links in or right after the answer. So for those who like answering questions, there should be plenty of questions that need answered. I don't need to remind those that go to help that you are representing our wiki as you do this, and that our behavior will set an example that will effect if this offer stays in place for us and other wikis.

However, I trust all of you, so I both ask and invite you all to help one or both of these wikis. Any questions about this can be taken to me, or one of the wikis admins depending on the situation. Thanks and happy editing.
