Seedpelt- Silver Nomination
When I came across the article it was already pretty good. All I did was add quotes and expand history. She is ready. 00:14, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

Supporting. I escpecially liked that second quote you added XP 00:23, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

Agreed. Haha me to :3 Shadowstar and Blueshine 00:42, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

She's ready. 01:13, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I was so excited when I found that quote. I was like, "this is perfect!" Hahaha 01:42, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

I think she's ready. :) 19:41, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

His page is fine - any comments before the vote will be put up? 12:56, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

None from me. 15:02, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

Vote is up. 20:27, September 7, 2010 (UTC)

Billystorm - Silver Nomination
His history is well expanded. He has a quote, and references. I'm looking into SD and finding more quotes. But right now, it's fine to me. 01:47, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

Supporting. 01:49, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

HIs history looks good, but you are right he needs probably at least two more quotes, if possible. I also moved his status from started to bronze. 02:04, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

I can do that. 02:15, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, done. I hope the quotes are okay. I also added his history in the manga adventure at the back. 02:42, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

He looks fine. Supporting. 11:25, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

I think Billystorm is ready. 19:42, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

Any comments before the vote? 01:59, September 7, 2010 (UTC)

Vote's up. 12:13, September 8, 2010 (UTC)

Pad - Silver Nomination
I have no idea if I'm doing this right, but I'd like to nominate Pad for silver. 雨晶須 夏天來了! 02:13, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

His description needs to be cited, and if possible could he have some quotes? I wouldn't know because I don't own the book. Also, if possible could the history be expanded. 11:28, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

I cited his description (using the Browse Inside), but I don't own the book, so I can't add quotes. Could someone else help? Rain whisker  00:23, August 16, 2010 (UTC)

His history and description look good. But, the quotes are still an issue. Like Blackclaw said, can someone that owns the book help? 02:23, August 16, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, I don't own it. I'd help if I could. 02:25, August 16, 2010 (UTC)

I own a copy but im not sure where it is at the moment when or if I find it I will add some. 18:14, August 16, 2010 (UTC)

Ok Thanks Shadowshine. 18:26, August 16, 2010 (UTC)

Is anybody working on this? 02:00, September 7, 2010 (UTC)

Oakheart- Silver Nomination
I expanded his history, added quotes, cited, and fixed up his Charcat. Comments? 16:16, August 17, 2010 (UTC)

He looks good! On his charcat, I changed "kits" to "son" and "daughters". I also moved the Endspoiler to before the references, but that doesn't really matter XP 16:31, August 17, 2010 (UTC)

Supporting. 17:51, August 17, 2010 (UTC)

Ok thanks Oblivion! 18:50, August 17, 2010 (UTC)

Any comments before the vote? 02:23, September 7, 2010 (UTC)

Vote is up. 12:14, September 8, 2010 (UTC)

Barkface -- Silver Nomination
I looked over everything, and it seems good enough. Opinions? 20:22, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

The Darkest Hour, Sunset, and The Sight could all be expanded. Also, if possible he could use another quote or two. He's been much mor imprpved since last time, though. 20:29, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry I haven't been able to work on this. I will as soon as I can which is soon! 22:31, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

Are you still working on this Snickers? 02:28, September 7, 2010 (UTC)

Dovepaw - Silver Nomination
I think she's ready for silver, I added a couple quotes to her page, and the info of her in the books seems to be sumed up pretty good. River pelt Deputy of StormClan 01:18, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

I am supporting. Excellent work Riverpelt! Well done! 01:45, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks Whitestorm! River pelt Deputy of StormClan 14:18, August 21, 2010 (UTC

Supporting(: Nice work!! ShadowstarandBlueshine remember Moonclan 16:19, August 23, 2010 (UTC)

I support. Shadeflower Warrior of StarClan 20:03, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Any comments before the vote? 12:16, September 8, 2010 (UTC)

Vote's up. 22:18, September 9, 2010 (UTC)

Brambleclaw - Gold Nomination
His article looks really good to me, and he's been featured. I think he's ready for gold. 18:42, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, he does look good, but I found some things that could be worked on. His whole description is just cited as "Forest of Secrets", and that's all it says, it needs to have a page number, and I doubt that all of his description was revealed then. Also, his Moonrise and Eclipse sections could be expanded, besides that he looks okay. 18:53, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

All of the sections could be expanded a lot-- 18:56, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

All of the sections? I mean, most of his history is pretty expanded. 19:00, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

In my opinion, the article shouldn't qualify even for silver, let alone for gold. History sections need major expansion, mainly the New Prophecy, which consist only of a couple of lines even though he was a main character. Description needs exact citation (I doubt he was described in Forest of Secrets as "broad-shouldered and muscular", as he was a newborn kit then). More quotes (and more relevant ones) need to be added, especially from the New Prophecy. 19:22, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, I guess he does need some work... mainly The New Prophecy, since he actually had a point of view then. 20:34, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

I can do only Midnight and Moonrise, because that's the only NP books I have, but I can work on it. 21:19, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

Perhaps I could look for a few quotes. 00:08, August 23, 2010 (UTC)

I will find some time to expand and update the New Prophecy sections in the coming days. 12:05, August 31, 2010 (UTC)


 * Unfortunately I haven't found the time; and now I'm leaving for a week, so I can take care of it only after next week (if someone doesn't complete it by then). Sorry. :( 19:54, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

This was kind of like a failed nomination so, is someone still working on this or, can I archive this and you can renominate it once the history is expanded? 12:20, September 8, 2010 (UTC)

I'm still working on this, but it's been kind of slow going D: 01:47, September 9, 2010 (UTC)


 * I'm sorry I haven't been able to do much. I'll work on it this weekend. Meanwhile, while we work on this together, maybe we should archive it, and put it up when he's really ready. 22:39, September 10, 2010 (UTC)

I don't see any harm in leaving it up. Unless, Oblivion wants to take it down. 12:28, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Hollyleaf - Silver Nomination
Hollyleaf's article is well expanded. She has ciations, quotes and a full history. Other than that, her article looks good and worthy for Silver Nomination. 17:56, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

She could use a longer quote. I'd do it myself, but I don't have any of my books with me D: 18:06, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

Yes she needs another quote, possibly when she is basically screaming at Leafpool in Sunrise? LOL! I'll trying hunting in my mess that I call my room, to see if I can find the Sunrise. Besides that, she has my support. 01:20, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

I added a quote from Sunrise from when she is telling all of the cats who her true parents are. She has my support too. Silverstorm4ever 23:12, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

I support, and funny quotes. :3 14:52, September 6, 2010 (UTC)

I kind of orgainzed the quote section to make it look better. I think it looks better now. Supporting. 13:14, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Any comments before the vote? 13:32, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Dappletail - Silver Nomination
I think she should be ready for silver after a little tweeking. -- Rosey Stupid School!!

Moonrise needs expanding, and she could use some quotes. 16:54, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

I'll do the quotes if somebody can tell me how to do! lol! -- Rosey Stupid School!!

Personally, I don't think she is ready for silver. Almost all of the history could be expanded, needs a few quotes, and is that family tree really nessecary? I mean, all it says is Dappletail had unidentified kits with an unidentified tom. If she is going to be silver, she needs a lot of work. Honeyrose, I will leave a message on your talk page explaining quotes later. 22:39, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

I agree, only a few parts of the history is fine, but most could use expanding. 01:11, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, quotes are done. Sorry it took so long. But...they're done! -- Badgers with Lollipops ~ Honeyrose34

Um..should we delete the tree? -- Badgers with Lollipops ~ Honeyrose34

No, keep the tree. All of the sections could be expanded some more.-- 06:39, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, the tree should be removed. Read the discussion below about family trees. Anyway, I removed it. It still needs a lot of work on history, though. Try to expande each section as much as possible. 13:17, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Snipe - Silver Nomination
I'm nominating Snipe for Silver. I cited his description, added some quotes, and expanded the history a little. 19:03, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

If possible, his history could still be expanded. I'm not sure if it can because I don't own the book, but he only appears in one book and he most likely will never appear again, his history should be fleshed out as much as possible. Try to expand it. 22:34, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

Are you still working on this Rainwhisker? 13:34, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Family Trees
Reacting to Whitestorm's remark in Dappletail's section above: yes, I guess we go way overboard with the family trees, such as when making templates like this, which add nothing to the article. Trees are useful and informative only when there are lots of relatives like on Bluestar's Tree or Adderfang's Tree. There is no use making charts only to show that a cat had unknown kits with an unknown tom, or to show that two cats are siblings with unknown parents. Maybe we should have established a guideline, such as "trees should be made only if there are at least 4 known related cats in the chart". Anyway, this is only my view and I guess there is no reason (or time) for starting to remove information that is already in place in the articles... I just felt that I should point this out. *hides* :) 20:10, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

Agreed... I don't know why someone even bothered making one for Dappletail. Personally, I think trees are worth having if at least two members are known - like in Template:Nightwing Tree or others, even though they are pretty small they still can help people get a sense of the family. But that one on Dappletail's is literally just saying that she has an unknown family. We might as well make one of those for every single minor character saying they have unknown parents if we have that! As you said, it doesn't add any info to the article. 20:20, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, that is something that I have never got. Like, see Template:Leafstar Tree, all is says is Leafstar and an unamed she-cat, and duh! It was a she-cat. Lol! Yes, I think it should only be if we know three of the family members. 12:50, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

I'm going to agree too. Family trees with only 3 members or less seem pointless. 11:27, September 1, 2010 (UTC)

New Content Drive
Wow... Mistystar's been up there for a looong time. Longer that it should be. That's probably due to my semi-absence but now that I'm back (for the most part) let's find a new article that needs some work! Does anyone have suggestions for the content drive? I recall that Firestar was suggested way-back-when we picked Mistystar. Thoughts/suggestions? 23:26, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I was just thinking that she should be taken down as well. Ok, here is my idea for the next Content Drive (it's kind of far-fetched but I think it would work). I was thinking that we could do some of the "younger warriors", by that I mean like Bumblestripe, Blossomfall, Briarlight, Foxleap, Icecloud, Rosepetal, Toadstep, Cinderheart, Lionblaze, Poppyfrost, and Jayfeather. The reason why I am suggesting this is, most of their articles need a lot of work, but they are the main characters now that the point of view has switched to younger cats. Tell me what you think. 12:57, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

I know that this is a stupid question but since I'm new, maybe not. Anyway, what IS a Content Drive? Thanks. -- ~Honeyrose34~ 17:06, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

A Content Drive is when we decide on an article that especially needs help and we work on it for a while. I also agree with Whitestorm17's idea. All of those articles could use some help. Silverstorm4ever 02:37, August 29, 2010 (UTC)

Yes I agree, the one that I think needs the most work is Poppyfrost in my opinion. ShadowandBlue 14:42, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

Maybe Brambleclaw? I understand he is up for nomination, though, but he won't be approved for awhile. 17:33, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

I'm thinking Poppyfrost or Firestar. 10:49, September 1, 2010 (UTC)

I kinda like the idea of doing Firestar and getting his article up to scratch because it won't be long now until he dies and then it's a whole article complete. I also think that with him being the main character of the whole first series, which is the one we can garuntee most peope have read he is one of the characters people are likely to come here to see. /ramble. 11:53, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

Does anyobdy else have any opinions? So far we have three votes for the younger warriors, and three for Firestar. What does everybody else think? 12:36, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Fallowtail: Silver Nomination
I think Fallowtail is ready. But I'm kind of new and are looking for suggestions. Ic eh ea rt    Will the thaw ever come? : 06:43, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

She looks pretty good, but if possible could her Battles of the Clans history be expanded? I don't have the book with me, so I can't. It would be good too, since that is the only book she really "appears" in. 13:00, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry that took so long, i lent out my BotC, but i expanded it more now. --  Ic eh ea rt     Will the thaw ever come? : 19:13, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

There could be 1 more quote, but pages like these that are minor and many of their family members are unknown just make me feel weird. :P -- 03:41, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I know what you mean but I searched through Battles of the Clans and there wasn't really any good quotes. I think it like looks fine. Supporting. 12:51, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Comments befoe the vote? 13:36, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Idea for quotes
I saw this template on another wiki and thought it looked really cool. We can change the colour of it for whichever Clan the character is in, or if they are a rogue, kittypet, etc.

I'm still not quite sure how to get the colour to work. I have a feeling it will only work once it's an actual template. The way I think would be good for the quotes to be on articles is to have them scattered over a few places. For example, on Firestar's page we could have an important quote at the top of the article, then a quote from The Darkest Hour somewhere in that section. Comments?-- 06:51, August 29, 2010 (UTC)

Ohh! Sounds like a good idea. Reminds me of Avatar Wiki. Anyways, yes, I think we should create and use this template. 12:39, August 29, 2010 (UTC)

I kind of like the idea for the colors, but I'm not so sure about scattering the quotes all over the article. I think it would work better if they were in one spot. 14:05, August 29, 2010 (UTC) It sounds like a good idea. Shadeflower Warrior of StarClan 14:09, August 29, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah... scattering the quotes might seem cool, but it would take ages to set up and would make them harder to add/remove/go over. I'm not sure about the template though.. it looks nice, but it looks as if it is really meant for the quotes to not be together, I don't think it'd look very good with them all together... and I'd really rather not scatter them =/ 12:44, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

My thoughts exactly, Insane. It would look wierd with all of them together, but it would take a lot of time to set up. 21:42, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

What about, a important quote on top of the article with the template, and then the rest of the quotes just...normal? 22:02, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

Oooohhh.. excellent idea Icestorm! :D We could have the best quote that the article has at the top, kind of like an introduction to the article. I support that idea. Also, if we are going to use that template, shouldn't we add it to the list of templates? Sorry, I'm not real good with templates, so I hope you understand what I'm saying. :P 22:39, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. :) And yes, we should. 19:03, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah Ice, that's a good idea.-- 23:11, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks! 14:50, September 1, 2010 (UTC)

I like Icestorm's idea too. But I also like the whole color thing too. -- Honeyrose34 21:47, September 1, 2010 (UTC)

I'm not so sure about the color thing. Most people wouldn't know what color represented what. 21:51, September 1, 2010 (UTC)

For the colour thing, it would be like: ThunderClan: Orange ShadowClan: Black RiverClan: Blue WindClan: Yellow SkyClan: Gray Rogues: Red Tribe: Green Kittypet: Pink Ancient: Crimson Loner: Purple

People don't need to know that the colours represent the Clan they are in. Maybe we could find a way to have a small Clan symbol in the corner of each.-- 22:02, September 1, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, but what about SkyClan, BloodClan, rouges, loners, kittypets, ancients, tribe cats? I mean there are a lot of different groups. I think it would be easier not to color-code it. 22:27, September 1, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, I've added onto it. BloodClan are just rogues, right? I hope I got them all-- 05:52, September 2, 2010 (UTC)


 * I dunno... it all seems a little complicated. I don't see anything wrong with the quotes as we have them now, personally. 11:55, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

Why do we need colour-coding for quotes? I could imagine colour-coding for the charcat template for instance (not that I'm suggesting it), but for quotes it does not provide any extra info... 16:52, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

I like the idea, but not the colour coding. 17:05, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

Exactly, I do not think we should use the colors, it wouldn't make any sense. 20:44, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

I just think using the colours would be good because then they aren't just plain and white. And Helix, that might be a good idea, adding different colours to the charcat templates.-- 01:44, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

I agree with Whitestorm. -- 01:46, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

I agree with Nightshine. Colors of course are not required, but I think it would add a special touch to the page. We would then make the Charcat the same color perhaps? 17:02, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

Will these boxes for the quotes be used at all?-- 06:22, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, hold on. I do not know where Insane is but I hope she will get on soon. Also, it looks the majority of people have voted against color-coding. 12:24, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Ceremony's
Ive seen that some of the ceremony's are hidden and others are open as for instence Thornclaw his warrior ceremony is poped up and Brightheart all of her ceremonys are hidden. Is there a reson for this?? ShadowandBlue 14:54, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

They should all be hidden. I don't know why some of them aren't. 22:36, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

There are two templates: Warrior Ceremony, which is an old version and being phased out, and Ceremony which is the new (and much more flexible) version, able to handle all ceremonies, and all pages should be changed to use it. It is on my to-do list but I don't know when will I have time for it, I appreciate any help. Here is a list of pages that still link to the old template and should be replaced with the new one (be careful, the coding is different). Here is a related discussion. Kind regards, 12:02, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, I didn't know that. Thanks Helix! I love working with the ceremony templates, so I'll try working on that list. :) 12:12, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

No mainspace pages link to the Template now. 19:59, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

Darkstripe - Silver Nomination

Jayfeather - Silver Nomintation
It's about time he was nominated. His article has been good for a long time. 15:28, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

His article is well. All I see is that two of his quotes could be removed because there is a bit too much. 16:02, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

Also, he needs a source for his trivia, where it states that he was named after his father. 16:09, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

I got rid of a quote and shortened one. I'll look for a citation now. 16:13, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, I found it. Anything else? 16:21, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

The Sight section could shortened a little bit, Dark River expanded a bit. 16:37, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

I removed two quotes that didn't show any personality, also Fading Echoes and The Fourth Apprentice could be shortened. They take up way too much space. :D 20:41, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I agree, Fading Echoes is quite long. Other than that, it's awesome. :3 16:50, September 4, 2010 (UTC)

Shortened The Sight, TFA, and Fading Echoes. 18:57, September 7, 2010 (UTC)

Now it looks fine to me (= ＩShadowandBlueＩ 00:26, September 9, 2010 (UTC)

Agreed. Supporting. 12:46, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Chasing Clouds- Silver Nomination
This is my 2nd nomination. I added two quotes and I think he's ready! -- Rosey

His Long Shadows section could be expanded--- 17:43, September 6, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, Long Shadows need to be expanded, a lot. Besides that, he is ready. 01:38, September 7, 2010 (UTC)

Other than that supporting. ") ＩShadowandBlueＩ 01:59, September 7, 2010 (UTC)

I expanded it as much as I could, but it's hard when he isn't mentioned much. I just hope what I did is good. -- Rosey (I have a siggie that doesn't work...)

If I am not mistaken, wasn't he the cat that became leader after Furled Bracken? Am I correct, or am I remembering incorrectly? 21:18, September 8, 2010 (UTC)

No, I'm pretty sure that was Stone Song :S I just don't feel like checking now :P 21:51, September 8, 2010 (UTC)

You are right Oblivion. Anyways, if possible try to expand it a little more. I feel like I am being too critical, but try to flesh out as much detail as possible. :) 23:02, September 8, 2010 (UTC)

I own the book and all, but I know what you mean, Whitestorm. But it is tough. Does anybody else have ideas? -- 19:51, September 9, 2010 (UTC)

I expanded his Long Shadows section. There wasn't much to add. It looks ready now-- 06:34, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, I guess it is expanded as it is going to get. Supporting. 12:48, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Hello, I'm new here, and I'm not really sure what to do. Please don't yell at me If I wasn't supposed to post this here, but could someone teach me what to do? I love Warriors and have read every book (except the mangas and SkyClan's destiny) but I have no idea what to do on the wiki. Could you help me? Aspenheart 01:27, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Sunspirit, I will add you into the project. If you have any questions you can read the main page, check out the FAQ, or ask any experienced member. Thanks for your intrest in joining!

Aspenheart, might I suggest signing up for a mentor here? The project pairs experienced users with new users to teach them about the wikia. If you are intrested, just place a request on the talk page under the apprentice section. I hope this helps! 01:45, September 11, 2010 (UTC)
