"Humility is a noble thing, but you must also remain strong and self-assured. A true champion is also history's pawn, and history is a cruel and unfeeling master."

- Ayrenn

Another week, another Septim, here are this weeks changes and events.


 * Bronkiin is out newest MOTM, he has made a good impression by helping with our ESO images and improving ESO articles as a result.


 * This months Featured Article is the College of Winterhold. I am hoping to challenge the wiki this month in what our next FA will be. We have yet to have a ESO article even be nominated for GA status, I think we need to show that we are working on those articles, so I ask that you all keep an eye out and bring forth ESO articles that meet our standards. If you cannot find one, then add what you can to improve the articles. Sometimes one edit can create a chain of edits that build an article to be the best it can be.


 * Two editors have changed their names this week. To prevent any more confusion then I had when I was trying to figure out who they where, I will let you all know now. "QueenFinelia" is now "High Goddess Venus-Afrodite-Finelia" and Ser Pouce-a-lot is now "The Cat Master". To those who do not know, you are allowed to change your name once, so those who do not like their name can look at this option.


 * Last week during the Moot, we agreed we needed to add a new method of keeping track of our projects from the moot, we now have a tasklist. We will add items that need to get done to the list, so admins and other editors can do them.

=We have added the tips and info from the loading screen from Oblivion. With this, we should have all loading screen info from all the games, not including the loading screen images. We are having some trouble with the images as of now, but are hoping to improve this if possible.


 * As a reminder to those in chat. The bots are meant to be used, and we want you to enjoy them, but they are not just toys. I ask you all to not abuse the bots. I ask that if the mods see abuse, to warn people to relax a little to not spam the bots commands/features.

Moot Summary

 * Atve put forth a staff template listing all staff members, meant mainly for use on staff profiles to list all current staff, but can be used by any who want to. The Template passed 6-0
 * I put forward an idea of merging the FA/GA templates to reduce layout issues. This was countered with another method involving working on the article leads and Flags, and it was decided to go with this as it was less work for the same result. This method passed 4-0
 * We discussed the layout of the Oblivion loading screen tips, and decided on board category formatting 6-0
 * We discussed the old "quote of the week" article I found, from back in 2009. I will work on reformatting it, and will present the change next week for Moot approval.
 * Due to some continued concern about moot time, we have agreed to do a CT and see if we can't find a better time. We will highlight that thread and link it here to assure we have access.
 * to avoid confusion, the mastheads for MOTM and staff will be split instead of how they currently are. This was passed 6-1-1
 * We brought up the topic of naming authors in the reference, some saying this was unneeded. This vote resulted in a 3-2-2 break, and we decided 7-1 to move this to a CT. We will highlight and link the CT.

That is all folks, I hope to see you all during the next Moot, or whenever. Thanks, and happy editing.Cheatcodechamp (talk) 02:05, October 4, 2015 (UTC)
