"CHIM. Those who know it can reshape the land. Witness the home of the Red King Once Jungled."

- Mankar Camoran

Hi all, Atvelonis here with the first weekly update of November. There's a lot to talk about this week, ranging from news to moot topics, so let's get to it!

TES news

 * ZeniMax is hosting a Holiday Fan Art Contest for The Elder Scrolls Online, beginning October 31st and ending on Sunday, November 19th at midnight EST. The winners of the contest will receive multiple prizes, listed out in that link. If you're a talented artist, it wouldn't hurt to enter!
 * There was a free weekend for Xbox One players of Online from November 2nd to November 5th, which you can read about here. A similar event may be available for players on PlayStation 4 and PC/Mac in the future, so stay tuned.
 * To celebrate the 10 million player milestone for ESO, ZeniMax is holding another contest called "#10MillionStories," which you can enter here. Once you do that, remember to play ESO sometime before December 6th at midnight EST and you'll be eligible for the prizes, which range from thousands of in-game Crowns to fancy custom gaming PCs.
 * The company also released the Crown Store Showcase for November 2017, displaying a few new costumes, mounts, pets, and style parlor options.
 * Dire Wolf Digital announced the release of the new Return to Clockwork City story expansion for, which is set for release on November 30th. The expansion will be split into three acts, but can be pre-ordered now as a bundle for $19.99. For more information, see the full blog here.
 * They also released the patch notes for Patch 67.1 for Legends, and shared a monthly developer update about progress on the game.
 * The "Rumble in Skyrim Gauntlet" for Legends began on November 4th and ended today, November 6th. For more info on the contest, see the blog post on the subject.
 * This isn't strictly related to, but in case you're looking to upgrade your PC to play with a bunch of graphically demanding ENBs installed, it might interest you to know that Nvidia released their GTX 1070 Ti GPU on November 2nd for an MSRP of $450.

Wiki news

 * The moot for November was held on Saturday and went pretty smoothly, although we didn't have a huge number of topics this time around. The next moot will be held on Saturday, December 2nd at 4:00 PM EST in the Chat. If you have a topic you'd like to discuss, please sign up on the project page beforehand.
 * The Crusader of Truth suggested that we begin categorizing some of the more obscure maintenance categories as "hidden," because several of them are irrelevant to readers. This was passed 10-0-0.
 * Sakaratte wanted me to note that our sister wiki, Nukapedia, will be holding a "retirement party" for their Chat on 25 November at 22:00 UTC. They have replaced the feature with their Discord server, and will be gathering on the Chat on that date as a final farewell: all are welcome.
 * I suggested that we hold a holiday raffle similar to the one we held in 2015, but set up in a way that encourages content addition. We voted 7-3-1 to hold a CT asking for feedback on how the raffle should be structured, which you can access here. Please leave your ideas on that thread!
 * Some particularly noteworthy content additions made this week are as follows:
 * Blademaster Jauffre – Arena (Quest), Hadvar, Ysabel Andronicus
 * Poisoned apples – Oblivion dialogue
 * Rupuzioks – Legends uploads, Morrowind quest journals
 * Rozty – Morrowind uploads, Characters (Morrowind)
 * The Crusader of Truth – Daggerfall weapons
 * The Rim of the Sky – Divayth Fyr (Online), Tholer Saryoni, Return to Clockwork City
 * Vincentius1 – Mournhold, Sentinel, Wrothgar

Wikia news

 * Sannse of Wikia released another part of their guide for administrators  in the staff blog the other day titled "Five Things Every Admin Should Know - Revisited." This particular blog lists a few useful pages for administrators, such as Recent Changes.
 * Wikia also released three more technical updates since last week, as follows:
 * November 2, 2017 Release: Rollback Edit Summary Being Simplified
 * November 6, 2017 Release
 * November 7, 2017 Release: Fixes for DPL, API & Internationalization

That's about all I have for this week, folks. I hope everyone is having a wonderful week, and as always, happy editing! ―Atvelonis (talk) 05:36, November 7, 2017 (UTC)
