Fading Echoes Browse Inside Policy

 * Woohoo, Sandy gave me a link to the HarperCollins Browse inside for Fading Echoes! Here is the link if you guys want to read it. We'll be using the same spoiler policy as we did for TFA, since that worked quite well: we will only add spoilers from the Allegiances (until the book comes out), such as name changes. Nothing from the actual book. If you see people adding things from the book, then just remove them until the release. This is so people who don't want spoilers before it comes out won't get them unintentionally. Is this cool with everyone, any questions or concerns? (Note: Don't post any spoilers on talk pages or anything either; since some users could still stumble across them when they don't want to. Try and keep any discussion about the events of it to the IRC or other sites)  insaneular    Talk  21:40, March 5, 2010 (UTC)

I saw all the name changes to Blossompaw and Briarpaw and those cats and I was like, "WHAT?!!" I need to read the thing....-- Artimas Hunter Welcome to Bramblepath's Den 23:09, March 5, 2010 (UTC)

-facepalm- I'm an idiot! :(  Trout leap  23:11, March 5, 2010 (UTC)

Nah, it was just a mistake Ice, don't feel bad :)  insaneular    Talk  23:12, March 5, 2010 (UTC)

A Clan in Need browse inside has also been released, but I think it will easier with not adding information to articles since it's a manga. But, we get to see Crowfeather in mini version^^. → Sky feather  00:22, March 7, 2010 (UTC)

I can't wait til they come out! Of course I'm completely broke at the moment but I get allwence today so. Plus: Crowkit+Leafkit+Squirrelkit=awww!-- Artimas Hunter Welcome to Bramblepath's Den 18:28, March 7, 2010 (UTC)

Okay. The book comes out in a few days, so we should start getting ready to update the pages! I'm getting it on release day, but not right after school like I did for TFA, so I'm sorry if I'm not able to help until later that night. Anyways, same drill as for TFA, as soon as the 23rd arrives, any spoilers are fair game, and first priority is probably adding history to the main characters, then cleaning up things such as the family sections and minor characters getting the alleg template. Just posting this so people who weren't here for TFA know what to expect, or just as a reminder ;)  insaneular    Talk  15:46, March 21, 2010 (UTC)

OMS! I completely forgot that it was coming out! I have 2 days! I can't wait! I'm going to be on here all day on Tuesday! After the hour it takes me to read FE.-- Artimas Hunter Warning! This user is reasonably insane! 16:13, March 21, 2010 (UTC)

Just finished reading it. xD I'm going through and adding categories, the header, and the book title in the book appearances. If it has a coming soon template on it, it means they need information added, if not, then you'll see the alleg. template in place. I'll get to actually documenting the appearances tomorrow probably. → Sky feather  00:04, March 24, 2010 (UTC)

I just finished, and boy, it was GOOD! Anyways, I've already created pages for the new characters introduced (Wildfur, Snowtuft and Shredtail), but their histories are pretty brief now since it's late. I'll update them more tomorrow, along with StarClan, Place of No Stars, and any other characters I can get to. It's a shame I got it so late in the evening, or else I would have been able to do more today XD Also: I'm going to unprotect Molekit, Cherrykit, and Mistyfoot now (as well as move her to Mistystar) but I'd warn people to be wary of edits to those pages as they might get messed up by anons anway. insaneular   Talk  02:29, March 24, 2010 (UTC)

Uh, can someone goes through Ivypaw's FE section and shorten it? I typed up just about all of her appearances and the article got kind of long... xD → Sky feather  19:10, March 24, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, since this seems to be kind of a task center now, I'll list the more major characters that still need history added:
 * Jayfeather
 * Lionblaze
 * Dovepaw
 * Tigerstar
 * Hawkfrost
 * Mistystar needs a quick cleanup
 * Firestar could use some expansion
 * Spottedleaf
 * Tigerheart
 * Cinderheart

Of course there's plenty more, but those are the most major ones, which are probably the highest priority and are also the biggest jobs. If you finish one of them feel free to delete it from the list or strike it :P  insaneular    Talk  21:56, March 24, 2010 (UTC)

Since the hype has died down a bit, I'll probably archive this soon. We should still focus on adding histories though (I admit I've been slacking off in that regard, I only did Firestar, Tigerheart, Yellowfang, and Hawkfrost, and probably shabbily!)  i nsaneular The original Hazelnut spread 00:55, April 6, 2010 (UTC)

Deletion Review
A recent deletion of an article has been contested. Can some admin please process it? Thanks, Helixtalk 05:38, April 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Er... what exactly do you mean, by "process it"?  i nsaneular  The original Hazelnut spread 13:48, April 3, 2010 (UTC)

Do you mean un-delete it? Møųş ëţą  łő  ŉ!!  17:59, April 3, 2010 (UTC)

I mean that an admin should decide if he/she undeletes it or not, based on the issues raised there (kind of the reverse of an AfD). Helixtalk 18:16, April 7, 2010 (UTC)

Sorreltail - Silver Nomination
I think that this article has everything it needs, and it is already Bronze, so it needs to be put to silver. ~Ec hos  tar  13:13, April 3, 2010 (UTC)

I think her history for a lot of books could be expanded considerably.  i nsaneular  The original Hazelnut spread 13:48, April 3, 2010 (UTC)

I agree. It still needs a lot of work. It is a fair article, but not yet silver status. Møųş ëţą  łő  ŉ!!  22:32, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

Rising Moon - Silver Nomination
Well, she has all of her appearences and she has a pretty good sized article. I think she's ready. Comments?-- Moonbeam SkyClan will rise! 14:36, April 3, 2010 (UTC)

She needs expansion and citations. I'll work on the citations. Spottedhead Happy Easter! 20:00, April 3 2010 (UTC)

Citations are done. Spottedhead Happy Easter! 20:27, April 3 2010 (UTC)

Thakns, sorry I should have got that. :P -- Moonbeam SkyClan will rise! 13:53, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

Looks good to me, concerns about it?  i nsaneular  The original Hazelnut spread 15:08, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

It looks good! This might sound a little picky, but could you add a sentence like : At first, Jaypaw thought she was the medicine cat, but soon found out she was a queen: or something? Otherwise, it's good.Snowstorm Deputy of LightClan! 17:49, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

No, that isn't neccesary for the article, in my opinion. Møųş ëţą  łő  ŉ!!  02:42, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

We could add something along the lines of 'she was one of the cats with knowledge about medicine' I'll go do that, other then that I think she's good.-- Moonbeam SkyClan will rise! 15:09, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

Patchpelt - Silver Nomination
Wow, there are a lot of good articles here :). Mentor, Apprentice, family and description are cited, and he has a lot of history. →  •Maple  fern•  ←  14:49, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

I think his history could possibly be expanded.. esp Fire and Ice. If he is a minor character in the book then we need to jot down every appearance he has, however brief. ✐Sa NdY  15:00, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

Agreed, i think he had at least a few more appearances in the original series.  i nsaneular  The original Hazelnut spread 15:08, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

I agree with sandy and insane. It could be expanded. Thats my only problem with the article. Otherwise, its good!Snowstorm Deputy of LightClan! 16:55, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

Hawkfrost - Silver Nomination
He has a good sized article and (I believe) all of his cites and refs. His FE section in particular is quite good. Comments?-- Moonbeam SkyClan will rise! 15:53, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

I'llk have to check it out, but remember to check before nominating next time. Møųş ëţą  łő  ŉ!!  22:30, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

A few of the sections could use a lot of expansion. I would go through all the books in general, though, just to make sure everything is documented. Skyfeather 16:09, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

Duke - Silver Nomination
This is my first time nominating an article :D. All the info looks good. I added one citation and fixed a few grammatical errors.-- N i g h t s h i n e    {   02:47, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

I checked it out, and it seems pretty good! :) ♥  Willow  03:21, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

The Ancients
If I am correct, the Ancients are the Ancient Tribe of Rushing Water... right? If so, couldn't we replace the The Ancients in the Character Box with Ancient Tribe of Rushing Water? Ruinpaw I was trapped like a mouse in TwolegPlace... 17:37, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

Also, a question completely unrelated to this, but in the opening sentance of an article (The description) is there a period at the end or no? (EG...)

Firestar is a flame colored ginger tom with green eyes.

Or,

Firestar is a flame colored ginger tom with green eyes

Ruinpaw I was trapped like a mouse in TwolegPlace... 17:38, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

I think we should keep it just at the Ancients, sense I believe it wasn't confirmed, only thought of by the characters, that they were the ancestors of the Tribe of Rushing Water. Vicky might have confirmed this, but I can't remember exactly. As for the opening sentence, I've always seen them with a period at the end. Skyfeather 17:50, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

The Ancients are completely different from the Tribe. Ancients didn't have a Healer, or cave-guards, or prey-hunters. 21:25, April 5, 2010 (UTC)Mousetalon

Didn't Jayfeather say that they were the Tribe to Lionblaze? And Rock was supposed to be Healer previously, wasn't he, because he went to the Moonpool? That just makes them the same thing at different time periods with the traditions not-quite established, doesn't it? Hollytail Lion x Heather 4ever! 23:30, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

While it's true that the Ancients became the tribe, they were not themselves the Tribe at that time, so I think they should still be listed as ancients. And there should most definitely be a period at the end of descriptions.  i nsaneular The original Hazelnut spread 00:43, April 6, 2010 (UTC)

New Content Drive
Alright, Cinderpelt's died out a bit, I admit I ignored it pretty much until I did a small cleanup, but all in all, she is greatly improved from her demoted-from-gold status she had before the drive :) Anyways, people didn't suggest anything above, so I'm guessing you didn't see me commenting below all the talk already there. So here's a snazzy new section to suggest the next Content Drive! I'm tempted to do "Adding history for all characters from FE" but when we tried that for TFA it didn't really work out ;) Although the project was much less active then. Anyways, I'll shut up now so you can voice your opinions on who you want to overhaul next.  i nsaneular  The original Hazelnut spread 00:55, April 6, 2010 (UTC)

Hmm, I'm new to this content drive stuff, so excuse me if I'm doing something wrong, but I think we should do Firestar- after all, his page is in need of improvements. :)

Also, what's with the font? Things are REALLY hard to read for me... <span style="font-family:Century Gothic; color:blue; background:black; border:0px dashed; -moz-border-raiuds: 1em; color:Gray;">Vaan "So, Fran... how old are you?" 01:01, April 6, 2010 (UTC)

I think Firestar might be good, seeing as he really needs improvement- he wouldn't be silver under the current standards. I'm not sure what you mean about the font, it looks the same to me. Perhaps it's your computer?  i nsaneular  The original Hazelnut spread 01:02, April 6, 2010 (UTC)

This is off the subject, but why is all the lettering bold? Can someone fix it? Nightfall Silverpelt looks beautiful! 01:03, April 6, 2010 (UTC)

This is what I mean. (Feel free to delete this image once you see. =3) <span style="font-family:Century Gothic; color:blue; background:black; border:0px dashed; -moz-border-raiuds: 1em; color:Gray;">Vaan "So, Fran... how old are you?" 01:05, April 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * err, that's odd. It's not happening to me. I'm wondering if it has something to do with Mouse's siggy, since it has the same font (Impact), but I checked and all the span tags are closed... I really don't know. Hopefully it will resolve itself :(  i nsaneular  The original Hazelnut spread 01:07, April 6, 2010 (UTC)

It's not happening to me either. I think Firestar needs a lot of work so we should definitely fix that up-- N i g h t s h i n e    {   01:18, April 6, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah. Firestar might be good. And yes, it happened to me to. Surprisingly right after Mouse's sig. <font color="thistle" style="background:white">Willow★ Do you want fries with that? 01:25, April 6, 2010 (UTC)

I would like to nominate Mistystar. She has gotten more popular following the release of FE, and I think she needs more work than Firestar at the moment. Skyfeather 01:28, April 6, 2010 (UTC)

Mistystar would be good, as well. :)

Off topic; I replaced Mouse's sig above with a link to her userpage... sorry, Mousetalon, but the font was really hard on my eyes.

I think she looks good, for a fairly minor character. :) <span style="font-family:Century Gothic; color:blue; background:black; border:0px dashed; -moz-border-raiuds: 1em; color:Gray;"> Vaan "So, Fran... how old are you?" 01:53, April 6, 2010 (UTC)

I checked over article. The family and education are citated and the article is a good size. I think it's ready for silver status.-- Moonflight Come The Dark Side. We Have Catnip... 00:03, April 7, 2010 (UTC)

I see nothing wrong with it- I agree it's ready. <span style="font-family:Century Gothic; color:blue; background:black; border:0px dashed; -moz-border-raiuds: 1em; color:Gray;"> Vaan "So, Fran... how old are you?" 00:39, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

Gorsepaw
I'm trying to add a reference to his description, but I can't find anything. I checked Fire and Ice- no mention. It says he is introduced to Firestar in a gathering during A Dangerous Path; has anyone read that lately? Because I can only find one gathering at the beginning of the book... <span style="font-family:Century Gothic; color:blue; background:black; border:0px dashed; -moz-border-raiuds: 1em; color:Gray;"> Vaan "So, Fran... how old are you?" 20:29, April 7, 2010 (UTC)

How about the bit where he dies... um... The Darkest Hour I think. I'll look for it when I've had a shower. (not that you needed to know that... =P ) ✐Sa  NdY  20:32, April 7, 2010 (UTC)

Lol, okay, Sandstar. (Mind if I call you that? ^_^) I'll keep pawing through A Dangerous Path in the meantime. xD <span style="font-family:Century Gothic; color:blue; background:black; border:0px dashed; -moz-border-raiuds: 1em; color:Gray;"> Vaan "So, Fran... how old are you?" 20:34, April 7, 2010 (UTC)
