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.

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)

 * 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

RE: Loremaster's Archive
Hey Atvel,

Yeah, I was already planning on creating a hub page for the entire archive. I was just planning on adding all the seperate pieces first before making a global page.

And I was also a bit puzzled about the Out-Of-Game (TIL) template, because we tend to use those specifically for items from the Imperial Libary. I'll try to remember to add a disclaimer at the bottom of the page, I thought that just the category would be enough, but it appears I was wrong about that.

Also, if you don't mind me asking, why did you mention the image categorization? If it's about the image that I add to the Archive pages, I copied that one from Zenimax's site with the archives on it, so I assumed that I used the correct template?

I was planning on adding the archives a while back, but never got around to it. Now I might have a bit of an overkill on tasks, but at least I'll be busy.

Thanks for informing me anyway, I'll try to make use of it as best as I can,

RE: (Unmid) Dialogue
Hey Atv,

I added that in the way I did because that's the line he says when you leave dialogue, or stop the conversation. Since we also have dialogue from when you begin a, I thought it'd be as logical to also have it from when you end.

I also wanted to change the song, and I did, but it still refused to work. I asked for assistance over Articles and Central chat, but those didn't help. I was wondering if you knew what the problem may be? Cheers!

Improvements for Discussions Thread
It's been a while, and the discussions hasn't changed that much. With the merge getting closer, I think it may be wise to post another thread in the forums and the discussions about how to improve the discussions to see what users think. We've done it in the past, and it seems to have a decent turnout, but here's the catch: after maybe a week, we have a moderator or administrator personally email Wikia with all of the viable information (this might have happened last time, but I don't really remember since it was a while ago), and we should make sure that it sounds urgent, since there are a lot of vital areas that still need to be addressed before the merge. Time is ticking, and I want to make sure that the discussions are at least usable when the merge occurs. What are your thoughts? Thanks.

Ghost of Old Hroldan
Hey Atv,

I just added the dialogue of Eydis (Skyrim), including the dialogue from the quest The Ghost of Old Hroldan. But..... because she only had a few unique lines to say during the quest, I decided to just combine it with the normal dialogue, but I was wondering, is that okay? I think I've been doing it for a while now, and I'm not sure if I should seperate it in the future (as technically, it is quest dialogue, and not default), or if it's fine the way it is?

Thanks in advance, Blademaster Jauffre (talk) 22:17, October 19, 2017 (UTC)

Daedric Edits
Dear Atvelonis,

I planned to look over the pages of some of the Daedric Princes and make some changes, as I feel some pages are less detailed than others or have bits of information that could be added (such as Meridia and Jyggalag).

For example, and this could just be me, but I feel that the fact that Jyggalag's page could be changed to bring his page as close to, say, Molag Bal's, as possible (granted, he has very little definitive information to go on, obscure as he is, but his page currently says nothing about his library, and he is labled as a "metalic" warrior instead of crystalline. Also, would it make sense to reason that his curse occured after the birth of man, since Dyus is an Imperial?).

I have not edited any of them for two reasons: One, that the Daedric Princes are quite important and controversial, and I did not feel right doing anything significant in regards to them without admin consent. Second, how Meridia's page, and likely many others, are labled as protected. I would think I could edit it regardless, as I am certain that I count as an established, registered user, but the thought of editing without consent was... unsettling.

I know I've been going on about these Daedra for at least a week, now, but I only want to be certain that I'm not overstepping any unspoken boundries, or just glossing over any clearly spoken boundries. I would appreciate your response, whether it be consent or refusal, both to ease my mind, and to know if or if not to proceed.

Thank You,

Den Éna Faskómilos

 * Dear Atvelonis,


 * Firstly, thank you for your response.


 * Secondly, I see what you mean in regards to the subjectivity of my edits, like the statement "Dyus is an indifferent, cold-hearted individual of expansive knowledge and supreme intellect." I intended to put into words his outward behavior and apparent intelligence, though my word choice does seem to imply the statement as more of a personal opinion, and for that I apologize. Some of what I said was taken from in-game conversation with Haskill on the subject, such as the mention of him being powerful.


 * The last thing I want is to pass of opinion as fact; if I put in something that seems too subjective or opinion biased, it is because I was unable to combine my words into something that could convey it proper. Still, though, I will fully own up to the fact that I will sometimes muddle speculation and fact on my own.


 * Before touching any other article, I will revise the Dyus page, to trim off the speculatory fat. If that edit, or any others I do, begin to develop into a theme of inadequacy, inform me with haste.


 * I appreciate your feedback. Thank you once again.

Re: Thank you
Oh wow, thanks for the sweetroll! School has been tiring considering my class hours, but I will continue to edit, I really love editing these articles. Don't worry about the Bot stuff, I understand there is more important stuff to focus on, but It's good that you still remember. :) Once I finish the Winterhold page, I plan on doing a Wrothgar/Wrothgarian Mountains page, so I'm going to need the Bot later. But anyway, I have a lot of respect for you man and keep up the hard work. And you have a great weekend. --Vincentius1 (talk) 12:28, October 22, 2017 (UTC)

Winterhold pages
Hey Atv,

I was thinking that for all the Winterhold pages, we should have a new naming scheme. So for Winterhold (Skyrim), we could call it Winterhold/City (Skyrim), or for Winterhold (Hold), we can call it Winterhold/Region (Skyrim). I always ponder this every time I start working on the Winterhold (Region) page. This would be good for other pages in a similar position, and I have a strong feeling that Winterhold will appear in ESO, one way or the other. Let me know what you think. Have a good night! --Vincentius1 (talk) 01:05, October 29, 2017 (UTC)


 * I wasn't even thinking about that. That's actually way better than my idea. So should we name those pages now or later? --Vincentius1 (talk) 14:00, October 29, 2017 (UTC)

Re: Edits
Will do. Sry about that. I use my phone and can only edit one section at a time. I have been getting better at reading through the entire section of the article first instead of always hitting publish.

Also, thank you for the reply on my wiki title post. I look forward to seeing your posts ubhave coming up Disturbed and confused (talk) 11:52, October 31, 2017 (UTC)

Wrothgar
Hey Atv,

I added a Wrothgar link change in the AkulakhanBot tasklist for both the Wrothgar page and Wrothgarian Mountains pages. I was wondering if you could that as soon as possible because I want to get to work on it. It's okay if you don't have the time or there are other things to worry about. You reading this is the least you could do. Thanks and have a good weekend! --Vincentius1 (talk) 02:45, November 5, 2017 (UTC)

Tiber Septim
So apparently, Blademaster Jauffre is doing whatever he can to set a narrative that Tiber Septim is not a Nord despite evidence and is removing sourced supporting details. You don't want an edit war, fine. Then you revert his edits because those details were fine as is. Furthermore, do you condone sections questioning reliability of the books content that Blademaster Jauffre is adding to the Nords Arise! article? Because if so, I also have some articles where I'd like to question the validity of.(Sports72Xtrm (talk) 17:27, November 7, 2017 (UTC))

Interview
Hey Atvelonis,

I am a long time fan of the Elder Scrolls, and I now I am writing a paper on it. I was wondering if I could get an interview from you.

Thanks,

Umiumes (talk) 03:07, November 13, 2017 (UTC)


 * For my interview, I was hoping you could answer the following questions...


 * 1) Why do you love the Elder Scrolls so much?


 * 2) How were you introduced to the series?


 * 3) How did you find this Wiki? How did you become administrator, and do you view the Wiki differently now?


 * 4) If you could live anywhere in Tamriel, where would you live? What race would you be?


 * 5) Which Elder Scrolls game is your favorite?


 * 6) Where do you think the next Elder Scrolls game should be set?

Missing templates on Legends pages
Hey Atv,

I'm back for a bit! I was just wondering if the Missing templates in empty sections on Legends pages mean that they are exempt from removal. Before I do anything, I thought that I should ask you.

I'll be sure to fix these edits, and will be sure to check on any large inconsistencies in articles as well if and when there is a next time. Also, will ask on Discord next time. - 03:57, November 22, 2017 (UTC)

Infobox Capitalization Issue
Hey Atv,

Needed to bring up right quick that Ned noticed that a lot of Morrowind articles are having variables capitalized in the infoboxes. I wanted to mention that it might be a good idea to get the bot to run over it and fix them. I figured you'd want it on your bot page so I went ahead and placed it up there, but since this is taking a bit of content away I figured it'd be a good idea to mention it. Examples are here and here, both with "Alarm" and "Fight." Thanks in advance, sorry for the extra work – The Crusader of Truth (talk – chat) 05:58, November 24, 2017 (UTC)

Re: Legends card stuff
Hello, I was planning to do that in the future, at least started on Creatures (Legends) article. Also I am moving to a new place this weekend, so I will be busy at least for the one or a couple weeks. --Rupuzioks (talk) 11:56, November 29, 2017 (UTC)

Moot topic
Hey, here's my idea. Not sure if I should present it, so I'm showing it to you first.

A lot of users now use the app, and unfortunately, app users don't have the same abilities as PC users. Now, Wikia is slowly making it better, but private communication is still hard for app users. My idea is to allow each user to create their own 'talk thread' on the /d. Let's use Cheese Lord as an example. He would make a thread called "Cheese Lord's Talk Thread" or whatever, and on there, anybody could ask Cheese a question, talk to him about something TES-related, etc. The bit that would require support from Wikia is merely an optional thing, but would make it better imo. Basically, there'd be a one time only option when making a thread that would label that thread as a talk thread. This would essentially give Cheese moderator rights on that thread (deleting, editing, editing the post after 24 hours). Of course, the further details would have to be organised, but this is the base idea.

Thanks,

Destruction Ritual Spell
Hello, again I saw the change at Destruction Ritual Spell about the level requirement. Maybe it should be better clarified about the bug there too. I don't want to reverse such edit every time.

P.S. I still will check the Wikia while I am preparing to move, it just my projects will have to wait. --Rupuzioks (talk) 15:54, December 3, 2017 (UTC)

Ulfric Stormcloak (general) page
Hey Atv,

For once, this is not about an edit war, but a specific idea for a page. Since Ulfric Stormcloak makes an appearance in both and  there is a disambiguation page for Ulfric Stormcloak itself.

I was wondering if I, and a couple others, like Sports, would be able to turn that into a lore page? Currently the Skyrim page for Ulfric Stormcloak seems to cover a bit of both, but having one specifically dedicated to the lore seems in place to me.

You can kind of see it like what I did with the Battle for Whiterun page, using information from both quests to turn it into more of a lore page than just a disambiguation.

Of course, nothing of this is urgent in the slightest, but since it's not the first page that it has happened with (I believe the Alduin page had the same thing) I see it as fitting.

Let me know what you think, Blademaster Jauffre (talk) 21:14, December 3, 2017 (UTC)

Hello, can you check CardTooltip template? For me it only works in the preview mode. If I mouse over in an article I can't see the image. When I upgraded this template for the shouts it still worked, but in recent days it is not working.

Season Unending
Hey Atv,

So, I wanted to add the dialogue and all that from Season Unending, but there's one thing. There are so many differences in how those conversations go depending on the topics chosen by the player character, that it would be very messy if I tried to go about it.

Any suggestions as to how to approach this problem? Blademaster Jauffre (talk) 17:34, December 22, 2017 (UTC)
 * I was thinking a neutral, pro-Stormcloak, somewhat Stormcloak, pro-Imperial, and somewhat Imperial supportive, but a lot of dialogue in the quest depends on the choices made. I think there are around 7, possibly more, different dialogues depending on choices made during the creating of the treaty.

Legends Characters Template
I thought that I could make all Legends characters that appear during the stories and episodes (Kellen, Tyr, Swims-at-Night) a proper character articles. I tried to make this with Kellen using the LoreCharacter template, and I fill like I made a rush decision. Maybe we could make a tempalte for Character from legends? Or use this Lore template?

Hi X-Mutant here it has been a long since we talked so I was wondering if I could ask for a favor or help. X-Mutant (talk) 11:04, January 3, 2018 (UTC)
 * Well what I am asking for doesn't have anything to with the Elder Scrolls wiki. I have made my wiki and I was wondering if I could find anyone who could help out with the wiki that I have made. Hope that it is okay to ask for help with the wiki that I made even if it has nothing to do with Elder Scrolls. X-Mutant (talk) 13:21, January 4, 2018 (UTC)


 * All I need is some helpful advice about how to make template character infoboxes, template location infoboxes and other stuff like that. I want to just try to learn some tips like working on the theme designer how to make badges and stuff. Because I have no clue how any of that works just trying to learn about what I can I do with it. I just want to make sure I get pointed in the right direction. I want to under what I have created a little better.

RE: Media Template
Sorry for the late reply (I guess technically I'm a year late[?] hehe), but yeah, I've had my mind on splitting the Media template for a while. You might remember Template:GamesNav which I made a while back, and I'm think of putting that on each article for the games. However it should be simplified to list only the important installments, so the version you see right now will be cut down a bit. Here's a basic list:
 * Main series (I - V)
 * Spin-off games (Travels games will be bracketed)
 * Large DLCs (Tribunal, Bloodmoon, KotN, Shivering Isles, Dawnguard, Dragonborn) will be in the main series section, but bracketed
 * ESO's Chapters (Morrowind, the upcoming Summerset one) since they are marketed and sold in such a way that ZOS intends for them to be covered more then DLCs

From there, each game would have it's own specific navigation template (I'm planning that nav templates will be drop-down like they are on Wikipedia) which would list it's media topics. For example:
 * Skyrim would list the game, the DLCs, the Editions (Legendary, Special), and Creation Club "creations", and Platforms. Oblivion would list the game, DLCs and Editions, and the official add-ons (Wizards Tower, Horse Armor).
 * ESO would list the DLCs by type like Content (Orsinium, Clockwork City etc.), Dungeon (SotH, HoTR, Dragon Bones), the aforementioned chapters, upgrades (Digital Imperial Edition Upgrade), and a couple things I haven't thought of yet.

This would help to give coverage to the more minor things that would take up too much space in the primary template, while giving the primary one more readability.

For books, it should be a lot simpler. There would be novels (Infernal City, Lord of Souls), short-reading books (Naryu's Journal, Hero's Guides to The Elder Scrolls Online), strategy guides, game manuals, and maybe some other things I haven't thought of.

So yup, I guess that's all I have to say, but if I think of something else I'll let you know. We should probably work on designing prototype templates of the ideas I gave you and see how they turn out, then later work on putting them on their related articles.

Ulfric Stormcloak Page
Hey Atv,

I noticed that the Ulfric Stormcloak lore page is locked, which is unfortunate. I also noticed that we have the Legends card art and I wanted to add it to the page, as a part of the infobox, since it's a professional and official drawing. Could you add it to the page, along with the Lore: Kings category. Also be sure to add the current image onto the gallery, but I probably didn't have to tell you that. Thanks! --Vincentius1 (talk) 20:06, January 20, 2018 (UTC)


 * Thanks for adding the image, I think it looks pretty good on the page. Whenever I use the Lore: Kings category, I generally use it for a male ruler/leader. I've used the category for pages describing a baron, a count, or even an ashkhan since their essentially a leader of a different type of domain, if that makes sense. To be frank, it could be changed to be something more general. You don't have to put it in if you don't think it is warranted though. That's just how I go about.--Vincentius1 (talk) 22:21, January 20, 2018 (UTC)

Stormcloaks and/or Civil War page
Hey Atv,

As has been the case for the last couple of... months, I think? The Skyrim Civil War and Stormcloaks page has been locked. While, aside from some minor possible corrections on either page, this is fine as it is, I've recently been working on finding new items to add.

For the first: http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Rupuzioks#Card_art

Card art relating to the Civil War and Stormcloaks, which I guess you can add if you don't want to unlock the page. Rup has been so kind, and willing, to add the card art 13 cards to the wiki, and since they're fitting for either page, I felt like they should be added. If not all, at least some.

Likewise, there is record of another skirmish in the Civil War recorded in Return to Clockwork City. But if this is really worth adding or not, is up to you, as there is no conclusive outcome; though there is some lore to it relating to the expansion it belongs to.

See you around, Blademaster Jauffre (talk) 22:16, January 20, 2018 (UTC)

Images
I just dug out this picture from Legends files. It's some kind of a Promo card pic, I've never seen it in-game. I suppose it could be a Piercing Javelin (Legends) card art but I'm not sure. Should it be added to the page? --DreamSoulshine (talk) 16:45, January 24, 2018 (UTC)

Season Unending
Hey Atv,

I'm considering to restart my dialogue project and tried it with Season Unending.

I kind of wanted to order it like on Arngeir's page: http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Arngeir#Conversations

But as you can see, that's pretty long. And since there can be like.... Three? More? Endings per faction, I was wondering if you had any idea on how I should approach it.

Thanks in advance, Blademaster Jauffre (talk) 00:12, February 1, 2018 (UTC)

Race Pages
So some have taken to removing the images on race pages and replacing them with just images from Legends. An example is here Dunmer. While adding images from Legends is one thing, I don't agree that the pictures from offline games should be removed, especially since many more people play the offline games than the online ones. There's no reason why Legends art should have priority that I am aware of. So, I'd like a ruling on this rather than get into an edit war on the subject.
