Warriors Wiki talk:Books

Okay
This has gotta stop. No matter how many times we keep saying we're gonna do something, we'll never do it if we keep sitting around. I am sorry for letting the project die, and I'm gonna try and bring it back, but I can't do it alone. I need everyone's help. I can't run this project on my own, and it's the members that make it what it truly is. We need to shape things up a bit if we're gonna try and rebuild this wiki, and I have a couple ideas... I've been a lead in PB for three years, and I never even once thought it would come to the slump it's been in now. Come on, guys. Let's bring back the little project that most of us know and love, shall we? I've got faith in you nerds, now let's go.
 * Wiping the talk page and starting fresh: This would mean that all votes, discussions, and things of the like would be null, and we'd start a clean talk page, maybe giving these people a chance to nominate some articles.
 * Making the featured articles every other month, instead of every month: This is another thing, and with the project as small as it is, sometimes we don't get anywhere near enough for it to be a real community consensus. One vote for this, and one for that, and things of that nature is nowhere near good to be a true voice of the community.
 * As a side note, a monthly FA is not mandatory, and it's only to keep the main page a little fresher. If we can get activity up, then maybe we could go back to every month, but for now, we gotta do something else that works.
 * Reviews of previously graded articles: Come on, we're all able to write a good summary. See these? Some of them were nominated many many moons ago, and I know I've improved on my writing since I nominated my first silver article.. so perhaps we could go through them, and check for accuracy, grammar, and other little things that could make the articles even better?
 * Start actually commenting and critiquing someone's nomination, instead of just saying "it's good" or something like that. We're an encyclopedia that even Kate uses- we should be the best source of information out there!
 * Please stab the leads with sticks if we forget something. I'd love nothing more than a friendly reminder on my talk page if I've forgotten something! I don't bite, guys. I only nibble if I'm hungry  I doubt Leggo's gonna care if you go poke her either.

I agree, (and oh god I'M the worst offender nooo) I won't bite unless you're some type of noodle, because noodles are good and noodles are my life. (I really think that's all I have to say really, I promise to kick my own self in gear because life is really like... Getting harsher as I get older it sucks... I'm rambling again sorry.)  00:15, March 4, 2014 (UTC)

So the current nominations would not be voted on and have to be renominated if the talk page was wiped? 00:20, March 4, 2014 (UTC)

Birdqueen, that's what I'd like to do, yes. Instead of trying to find out which ones are done, and instead of just waiting and waiting, wiping the talk page would just allow us to compose ourselves instead of just asking for people if they're still working and such. They've be allowed to renominate, of course, but I'd just like a clean talk page instead of nominations from like months ago. (not literally but you get my point, I hope)

And Bird, that's perfectly fine, and you're not rambling. The older you get, the less time you find out that you have for things like this, hence why I'm leaving the message I did. I'm not asking for two hundred edits a day from everyone- that would be far too much.. but like an edit or comment here and there, is all.

That makes sense, thanks. 20:59, March 5, 2014 (UTC)

Okay seriously can I please have some comments from others as well? There are multiple people that still edit the wiki whose comments I'd like to see. I'll start going to talk pages if I don't get comments by Friday.

Hmm, I'll agree on this, actually. I'd like to see the project come back, and I'll lend in a hand or two at nominating. 18:37, March 31, 2014 (UTC)

Are we going to clear the talk page soon? Or at all? 03:56, April 8, 2014 (UTC)

I've cleared the talk page and I'm now starting an every other month FA. Other suggestions? Go ahead and comment.

Tigerclaw's Fury - Silver Nomination
This is for the allegiances, gallery, and main article. It's a vital e-book and I love detail. .o. So, I'd uh, rather not shorten it.

It looks great to me. Keep Up the good work. 20:06, April 12, 2014 (UTC)

Any other comments?

some questions and The First Battle quote nomination
Hello friends ok so I have some questions for everybody:

Are we doing FA's anymore b/c I haven't seen one for feb, march, and april.

Two I have some first battle quote nominations but all of them aren't here at the second for I am at school and if I did this later I would forget

Page 4: "I've lived long. I must warn you - greed is only the beginning. There will be war." - Stoneteller

Clear Sky had once been his closest friend. Now they faced each other like rivals. - Narrator

"Having little makes cats share. Having much makes us greedy." - Stoneteller

"You brought change. But must all change be born in blood?" Stoneteller and Gray Wing, page 5

"We are all born in blood. It marks the beginning, not the end." Stoneteller, page 5

"I have faith in you, Gray Wing. Always." Stoneteller, page 6

Ok I will paste more once I am home friends. 15:59, April 10, 2014 (UTC)

I'd like to restart things and do them every other month, but people need to comment first and I'm still waiting for a few people. Also I like Stoneteller's comment from page five about blood. 8D

I like both Page 5 and 6, but I like the less makes share and more makes greedy one too. 02:34, April 12, 2014 (UTC)

I like all of Stoneteller's quotes. x3 13:00, April 12, 2014 (UTC)

I have more now

"Kill me. Kill me and live with the memory. Then tell the stars you won." Gray Wing, page 270

"Don't make me do this, brother. All I want is for every cat to be safe. To have borders protect us and make sure we have prey." Clear Sky, page 270

"You always want to tell every cat what to do. You always have and you always will. You're so greedy for power, you'll kill your own littermate to get it." Gray Wing, page 270

"You wanted me to be cruel, like you! But I'll never be cruel." Thunder, page 232

"This great rock did not rise from the ground for me to sit on. These trees did not grow to give you shelter. The grass did not grow to give you shelter. The rabbits didn't hollow burrows for us to shelter in. The forest did not burn to destroy your home. This land isn't ours. We liev here for a few short moons then disappear. But the land lives on. It isn't ours to claw into morsels and share like prey. We must honor it and protect it. It feeds us and shelters us. Can we be united in that?" Tall Shadow pages 234 and 235

"You may as well not exist." Clear Sky, page 237

"That's right. Stay up here and watch your friends die." Clear Sky, page 238

"Did you really think this battle could be avoided?" Clear Sky, page 239

"Who would I have helped? This battle was not mine. Why did you leave the mountains? Did you need something to fight over so badly? Before you came, we hunted and slept and lay in the sun. We fought over prey, but no cat ever killed another. You brought death here.' River Ripple, page 275

"Killing only ever leads to more killing. Let your mistakes teach you." Turtle Tail, page 282

"Fear is what drove you. Fear is a powerful instinct that only the strongest cats can resist. But now you see there is no need to be afraid. We have shown that death is nothing for you to fear. It's not the end." Storm, page 285

"You all live under the same stars. And a single moon shines into all of your nests. We came to tell you only one thing. Unite or die." Fircone, Storm, and Shaded Moss all on page 289. If preferable, unite or die could be a quote itself.

"All cats have a choice. A cat who only follows one path, never stopping to question where it leads, is as dumb as the prey she hunts." Shaded Moss, page 287

"I don't know. Whatever we decide, we have been given hope. We know we can make a better future than this." Wind Runner, page 291

19:55, April 12, 2014 (UTC)

I changed my mind. Shaded Moss' quote just takes the cake and runs with it. He's had enough of the mountain cats' bullcrap and I love it so much.

I like River Ripple's quote about the mountain cats bringing death. 22:38, April 12, 2014 (UTC)

I honestly really like Storm's, Fircone + Storm + Shaded Moss's combined, and Tall Shadow's. I can't pick [sweats] 22:44, April 12, 2014 (UTC)

May/June FA
Yes, this means the FAs will be up every other month unless you've all got a better idea. So, shall we try for Twilight again? Or, if there's another book you think would be good, go ahead and fire away. I'm perfectly content with Twilight, and it's a good book.

Yes, Twilight sounds good for the FA c: 18:41, April 10, 2014 (UTC)

Twilight sounds good. 03:42, April 11, 2014 (UTC)

Twilight is good. 13:01, April 12, 2014 (UTC)

I agree with Twilight :D (For a second I thought it was already May realised it was still April)  01:30, April 15, 2014 (UTC)

No, it's not May yet, dear. Shall we go for a CBV? I don't think much of anyone else'll disagree, and it's been four days since any comments.

Can someone put the vote up so this can be voted on before May (or at least at the beginning of May)? 04:08, April 28, 2014 (UTC)

Sorry about that- I was gonna do it today but I've literally worked for the past couple days straight and today was an eleven hour shift. x.x I'll get to it when I wake up- I promise.

Night Whispers/Chapter 15 - Silver Nomination
surprise. 18:13 Sat Apr 12

Were there any errors? If so, could you add them? 23:01, April 12, 2014 (UTC)

Didn't catch any. 21:35 Sun Apr 13

CBV (Couldn't see anything either :p) 22:02, April 22, 2014 (UTC)

Resignation
Hey guys! As you've all probably seen, I'm having a lot of trouble staying active lately. Schoolwork's been crazy, and my social life outside of you all has increased miraculously and I need to start catering my schedule towards that aspect of my life moreso than this. The wiki's been a bit dead from my view, and this project deserves a lead who can afford to spend more time working on this than I can, which is why I'm stepping down as deputy.

Since Skye has been online enough lately that she can see who would be the right choice to fill my position, it's all up to her. Best of luck to you all, and I'll see you more frequently come June! 18:57, April 12, 2014 (UTC)

I can't say I didn't see this coming, with you having school and your social life is like a million times better than ours. As for who's going to replace you, I have to really think about it, and I'm going to let you all know eventually. I won't even wish you good luck or anything 'cause it's not like you're vanishing completely and I still stalk you everywhere else. =P

Join Request
I was wondering if I could join. -- ♦Berryheart♦ Meow 22:23, April 12, 2014 (UTC)

'course you can. The guidelines be here, and if you've questions, go ahead and ask. ouo

The Sun Trail/Chapter 2 - Silver Nomination
Re-nominating this since the talk page was wiped. Comments? 22:45, April 12, 2014 (UTC)

Looking good! I didn't see any particular grammar or spelling mistakes, but the 4th paragraph looks weird (The sentence is seperated from the rest of it I didn't know if that was intended or not, lol) But other than that it looks great :3)  01:24, April 15, 2014 (UTC)

Thanks! The space was intended, but I changed it since it looked weird when I read the paragraph again. 01:36, April 15, 2014 (UTC)

CBV :3? Good job :D  22:03, April 22, 2014 (UTC)

Rejoin
Hello I am here to rejoin because this wiki could really use more activity. this is really pathetic it's like the second time I've had to rejoin because of inactivity   06:22, April 13, 2014 (UTC)

You mayyy (Yes it does), if you need refreshing, the Guidelines are there, and don't be afraid to ask anybody if you're confused about anything :P  01:18, April 15, 2014 (UTC)

Night Whispers/Chapter 9 - Silver Nomination
one day all the night whispers chapters will be complete. 22:08 Sun Apr 13

One dayyy. Is that how small the chapter is o-o? Interesting, I didn't see anything immediately, so good job :D (Can't really say anything other than that except double check for grammar mistakes and yeah.) (I see that Mavin OTP O3O) 01:15, April 15, 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, the chapter's only 5 pages. I detailed out the paragraphs a little to add some length. mavin is lyfe  21:31 Tue Apr 15

Okay, looks good :D Mavin 4 lyfe   01:51, April 20, 2014 (UTC)

CBV? 23:45, April 27, 2014 (UTC)

Deputy
After much consideration and thought (trust me this wasn't easy in the least), I have decided to promote Birdpaw to deputy, to thank her for all the hard work and dedication to the project that she's shown. Congratulations, dear, you deserve this.

The Sun Trail/Chapter 4 ~ Silver Nomination
Hadn't done one of these in a while. Comments? 23:08, April 17, 2014 (UTC)

The first paragraph seems to be worded a little bit awkwardly - maybe you could try and make it flow a little better? 05:12, April 18, 2014 (UTC)

How this? 15:33, April 18, 2014 (UTC)

Just double check for spelling/grammar. Looks good! 04:12, April 28, 2014 (UTC)

Just looked, and I couldn't find anything o3o 00:44, April 29, 2014 (UTC)

Rising Storm/Chapter 2 - Silver Nomination
Comments? 00:50, April 21, 2014 (UTC)

Stick in a comma or semicolon somewhere in the first sentence so it doesn't sound as choppy, maybe? 05:15, May 1, 2014 (UTC)

This better? I reworded some of the other sentences as well. 13:10, May 1, 2014 (UTC)

Night Whispers/Chapter 4 - Silver Nomination
I'm finding a few of these I did a while back and never nominated so yeah 21:37 Tue Apr 22

Can you check the tense in the fourth paragraph? 22:21, April 22, 2014 (UTC)

Could you go through and fix the spelling/grammar errors? 05:03, April 24, 2014 (UTC)

Fixed, and patched it up a bit. 23:56 Fri Apr 25

The Sun Trail - Silver Nomination
Not nominating the cliffnotes now. Everything else was practically done, I went through the history, reworded parts, and fixed an error in the allegiances. Comments? 01:42, May 3, 2014 (UTC)
 * Article
 * Allegiances
 * Gallery

The First Battle - Silver Nomination
And every corresponding article except the cliffnotes. Back pains because of this. Also I'm conflicted as if I should add Wind Runner's story or not, but you can tell me if I have to and I will. Also youre paying for my back medication. 00:38, May 6, 2014 (UTC)
