Medicine ~ Silver Nomination
Well, I dont know if any of you guys heard, but Wildheart decided to leave the Wiki; I know, sad. So she asked me to nominate this page that we've both worked hard on; And I agree, I think its pretty worthy. So, Don't be shy, Tell Me what you think! -- 05:09, June 3, 2011 (UTC)

Hmmmm It looks GREAT, but I think it could use a few more refrences. I'll try and add as many as I can. :) ♥ Paleclaw  May StarClan be with you ♥ 08:59, June 3, 2011 (UTC)

It does look great, but, BlueOrca, you're not a member on this project, but if you want, I'll add you in :D And, its currently the Content Drive, so I'm not sure if you can nominate it until the next one is chosen. And, yes, it could use some more references, but it looks awesome so far! 22:29, June 3, 2011 (UTC)

Eh, Why not; Sure I'll join!

And, I dont really what you mean by "Content Drive" Mistystar, So Mind explaining to me? BUT you can just say that Wildheart nominated this instead of me, since shes the one who asked to me to so in the first place. -- 01:13, June 5, 2011 (UTC)

"Content Drive" is like a goal for the whole project. We want to get it looking great, and being informative. I asked Nightshine if we could change the Content Drive to Battles, though battles doesn't seem like it needs help anymore, right? XD. At el  da  04:24, June 6, 2011 (UTC)

Well, lets wait for Nightshine's decision. 22:11, June 6, 2011 (UTC)

Okay, well, I guess its my decision now. Why don't we have Tunnelers as our next content drive? Its needs a lot of work. 17:00, June 13, 2011 (UTC)

Okay, I fixed it up alittle.

Why don't you take a look at it and tell me whatya think about it. --

It still needs some work, but Medicine looks good. Could you add a few more references to Medicine, though? 18:29, June 13, 2011 (UTC)

There are tons of plants that still need sources. Also, at the bottom, you need a source for Yellowfang's quote about Foxglove and such. 22:37, June 13, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, you need a lot more citations. There's lots of Source? references that need to be fixed. 18:36, June 15, 2011 (UTC)

Are you still working on this? 19:24, June 16, 2011 (UTC)

Hm? Oh, sorry it's just that I'm going over my books to add the cites. Still I don't think I can do much, since Ive only read 6 books so far :\ --

I'll help. ❀ Atelda ❀ talk 04:16, June 18, 2011 (UTC)

So will I. 22:54, June 18, 2011 (UTC)

Ok, I fixed about 5 source references, and I'm trying to do more. 16:34, June 19, 2011 (UTC)

Woah! Thanks for all your help guyz 8D --

Ok, I fixed about 8 more references. This is taking a while! XD 18:03, June 19, 2011 (UTC)

I'll fix some too. :D 16:58, June 20, 2011 (UTC)

The ones that still need citations are beech, coltsfoot, comfrey, daisy, dandelion, feverfew, honey, lamb's ear, mallow, parsley, ragwort, ragweed, raspberry, rush, snakeroot, tansy, tormentil, water mint, willow bark, wintergreen, and foxglove seeds. So if anyone comes across these while reading, it would be great to add it in! 21:23, June 20, 2011 (UTC)

I fixed some more. Now the ones that need citations are beech, coltsfoot, comfrey, dandelion, feverfew, lamb's ear, ragwort, ragweed, raspberry, shakeroot, water mint, willow, and foxglove. Is anyone even working on this anymore? 23:18, June 26, 2011 (UTC)

Okay, I'll try. 15:52, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

I added about 9 more references. So, here's the list:


 * Beech


 * Coltsfoot


 * Dandelion


 * Feverfew


 * Ragweed


 * Snakeroot


 * Foxglove

Once you add in all the references for one section, just cross it out on the bulletpoint list so we don't have to re-write everything. 18:08, June 27, 2011 (UTC)

Is anyone still working on this? Its almost ready, and it only needs references for 7 more sections. 17:57, July 1, 2011 (UTC)

Be patient, it's only been three days! :P 22:15, July 2, 2011 (UTC)

Ok, I fixed some source references, but I couldn't find them all. I did add in a lot more referneces for location though. If no one can find a reference for any of the ones that need it, those pieces of information will have to be removed. 19:02, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, those will have to be removed if no one can find anything. I'd rather not have to delete them though. 21:12, July 5, 2011 (UTC)

Okay, I found 5 more citations. 22:00, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

I was looking over foxglove seeds and I saw the citation was wrong. Mistystar, you fixed it last, and I was wondering if you knew why it is wrong. I looked on page 29 of Sign of the Moon, but there's nothing about foxglove seeds there. I'm pretty sure it's a typo, and I'll try to find it! :P 22:39, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

Oops! That was my fault. I typed "om4" for original series, but its actually "os4". I'll fix it! 01:10, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

BlueOrca, are you even working on this anymore? It's almost been a month since you last wrote a message. 20:37, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

I think it's time to start deleting the references because we're not making much progress on them, and it's been a while. 19:26, July 15, 2011 (UTC)

Content Drive
Medicine, our current content drive, has been nominated for silver, so we should begin discussing our next one. Anyone, opinions? I suggest Tunnelers or Battles, but I'm open to other suggestions. 18:07, June 15, 2011 (UTC)

We should do battles because it's a stub and there's a lot of info about those in the books. 18:09, June 15, 2011 (UTC)

Any other comments? 15:56, June 16, 2011 (UTC)

I also agree it should be Battles. There's a lot of refrences to be added plus information, as Squirrelflame said. 10:22, June 17, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, whereas for Tunnelers, there's not that many references in the books and more people could participate in Battles. 21:44, June 17, 2011 (UTC)

Mmm...maybe battles but it's been expanded a profuse number of times and it wouldn't take all that much to make it a bronze. But it could use some citations and some of the information could be expanded/ added. However, tunnelers would be a great challenge to overcome because it's not known very well. At first I thought that it was a useless page but with more info, it could be of great use. Both articles would be good for a content drive but I think battles would be quite a short content drive. I'd be in favor of tunnelers, but battles would work also.  ❀ Atelda ❀ talk 22:12, June 17, 2011 (UTC)

I agree, but since Battles would be a short content drive, shouldn't we get that over with first? Then, since it's said to be short, we could start on Tunnelers in a few weeks. 23:11, June 17, 2011 (UTC)

Good idea! As soon as Medicine is graded silver, we can do Battles. 17:51, June 20, 2011 (UTC)

It's going to take a while, though. It needs a LOT more references. 21:25, June 20, 2011 (UTC)

It does. But then, a lot of articles need references. :P 18:43, June 22, 2011 (UTC)

New Project
Please comment on this: Forum:New Project. 01:15, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

August '11 Feature Article
Since all the other projects have started their FAs, I see no reason why we shouldn't. So, what do you all think should be our next FA? Since we've been nominating a lot of ceremonies, I think we could use one as a FA, but I'm open to suggestions! 19:10, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, I think a ceremony would be great! But could we do General Clan Information? It seems good to me! 19:25, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

I nominated that for silver. :P Still, I'd like to do a ceremony, since its nice to do things that we've been working on, and within a month, all the ceremonies have been nominated for silver except Elder Ceremony, which I'm still working on. =) 19:34, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

I like the Deputy Ceremony. 19:40, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

The Apprentice Ceremony looks good, too. 19:52, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

The Warrior Ceremony is fine as well. Lets get more opinions first. 19:56, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

The Apprentice Ceremony is still being nominated. But the Warrior Ceremony looks fine as well. 20:06, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

Yes. Proof that I'm stupid enough not to look at the status. But I think the Deputy Ceremony is the best choice. I don't like the warrior one so much. 20:11, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

So, lets see all the rank ceremonies:


 * Apprentice Ceremony (Voting)


 * Warrior Ceremony


 * Deputy Ceremony


 * Leadership Ceremony


 * Medicine Cat Ceremony


 * Elder Ceremony (Voting)

20:27, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

If Apprentice Ceremony gets nominated silver in time, I'd really like that one! 20:43, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

I agree. It looks perfect! :D 01:28, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

Because I nominated it. xD Not really. Then lets go with that. I'll CBV it to speed up the process. 18:16, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

Now that its silver, comments before the FA vote? I think it's ready for gold. 05:36, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

Personality Traits Vote
Everyone, go vote here! 20:37, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

Prophecies and Omens ~ Silver Nomination
Before you comment, I'm still adding references. :P Besides saying add in references, comments? 02:28, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

Are you sure there aren't any more omens in the Omen of the Stars Series? And add in the things for CP. 18:27, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

We should rather add the references with a real ref tag, such as I did here. There are some double links that should be eliminated. Other than that, it looks good. :) I don't have the newer books, but as Mistystar said, you should look for additional omens in the last books. Kind regards, 18:54, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

Hmmm.....I don't have the new book either, but I'll get it in 2 weeks. Mistystar, is it okay if I add in the things from CP later? Or can someone help me add it in? Oh, and Mistystar, should we do Helix's idea? 02:28, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

Hmm...Can you try to use the Browse inside for now? And, yes, you should use Helix's idea. 01:05, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

I tried the Browse inside, but it works very slow for me. Any other ides? 12:48, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Which books do you want to check? I could use the Browse Insides for you. 17:52, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Crookedstar's Promise. I'm checking the OotS series for prophecies and Omens right now, so I can do that, but I really need Crookedstar's Promise. 02:18, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

I'll try to use the Browse Inside to do that, but since you're getting the book soon, you can look through it then. 19:07, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks Squirrelflame! And I just flipped through Night Whisperes and I think I found an omen. It's when Flametail thinks he's floundering in the water. If you want more details, go to page 193 in Night Whispers. It's to complicated for me to describe. xD 13:40, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Oh that looks like a good one! Yes, you can add it in, but what are you going to call it? 23:42, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Umm.......I don't know........ 03:12, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

I think there are some omens/prophecies in the field guides (especially Code of the Clans), could you add those? &#123;&#123;SUBST:Nosubst&#124;User:XXXSpecklestreamXXX/Sig}} 06:09, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

I'll try........ 12:49, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

Okay, I found some omens/prophecies (I think), so I'll list them below. Tell me which ones you think are prophecies/omens and which ones aren't.


 * 1) Falling Branch. It was between ThunderClan and ShadowClan when it fell, making code 2.


 * 1) The Owl. Instead of taking Driftkit, it took the mouse instead, making code 3


 * 1) This one I'm not so sure of. It's when the medicine cats visit the Moonstone and dream of their fallen clanmates and see former battles. When they wake up, they discuss and suggest a new code, code 14, deciding to annouce it at the next Gathering.


 * 1) Like the one above, I'm also unsure of this one. It's when the three fallen WindClan kits visit Graywing and tell her how precious kits are. It makes Graywing suggest a new code to Ivystar, making code 12.


 * 1) Same as the 4th one. I'm also unsure of this one. It's when Redscar has to appoint the new leader. It's moonhigh when he appoints her, so he thinks of the new code for the Warrior Code, code 9. This one is long to explain, so if you have Code of the Clans, then please check code 9.

Those are the ones that I think are omens. There are some from Warriors App, I think, since Specklestream added one from there. If you have Warriors App, please add them in since I don't have it. 13:16, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

I think the 1st, 2nd, and possible the last one. I don't have the Warriors App either. :( 16:37, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

I think the first, second and third one are good ones to add in. 18:44, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

I added in some references with a real ref tag. I did it to "Like Fire, You Will Blaze Through the Forest". Does it look good? 00:44, July 15, 2011 (UTC)

Looks great! I'm getting Crookedstar's Promise tonight, so I'll add in the CP stuff as soon as I can. 05:52, July 15, 2011 (UTC)

YES! I got CP! =D Anyways, in CP, before Hailstar appoints the new deputy, he goes to the fresh kill pile. He sees a squirrel with a twisted face that was caught by Crookedjaw. Mapleshade tells Crookedjaw it was her who made the squirrel like that. Does that count as an omen? 07:38, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

Hmmm... I don't think so. We should consult Mistystar, though. 18:59, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

Bleh. I'm describing it wrong. Let me start again. Before Hailstar appoints the new deputy, he goes to the fresh kill pile. He sees a squirrel with a crooked jaw that Crookedjaw caught, and says it was an omen from StarClan and appoints Crookedjaw the deputy. Later, Mapleshade tells Crookedjaw that she kept her promise. When Crookedjaw asks her if it was her who put the squirrel, she doesn't reply. It's kinda like Mudfur with the moth wing......... But yeah, we should consult Mistystar first. xD 13:23, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

Can someone make the references for The Owl section and Fallen Branch section into a real ref tag? It keeps saying revealed in an unknown book, so I used the different way to cite references. 13:36, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

I think the CP one does count as an omen, since Hailstar thought it to be one. 16:28, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

Name Changing Ceremony ~ Silver Nomination
So, added citations, and fixed grammar and links. Remember, I can't cite the last paragraph. Comments? 17:38, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Reference 3 looks out of place to me. Can you check that? 17:49, July 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * I took care of it. :) 17:57, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks! 18:13, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

What I meant was what does the reference cite? The part that says "sometimes it is"? Or does it cite the part that says: "Sometimes it is changed when the cat has been named incorrectly"? If it cites the first part, I think the reference shouldn't go there; it should go at the end. 18:17, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Whatever. 18:47, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Ok... If you're going to be like that, I'll put it at the end for you. 19:04, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Maybe you could put that for a kit, the parent may need to inform the leader that it is ok. Hailstar doesn't change Stormkit's name until Rainflower speaks to him, which suggests this. 16:17, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

It looks short. I agree with the suggestion above, maybe add another section mof what happens when a cat doesn't preform the right words? Anyways, if you can't expand it more, then that's fine and it looks good. 23:00, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Interesting. I'll add another section and see how it looks. 16:47, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

Done. 02:38, July 15, 2011 (UTC)

I think it looks good! CBV then, if no one has any objections? 3:55, July 15, 2011 (UTC)

Vote is up! 02:28, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

Kittypet ~ Silver Nomination
I added lots of references and expanded. Comments? 17:56, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Great work! Looks good to me. 18:36, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks! Anyone else? 00:00, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

Nope. It looks good to me to. 02:21, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

Looks great. Nothing's wrong with it to me. -- 22:08, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

Same here! 17:47, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

CBV? 3:54, July 15, 2011 (UTC)

Vote is up! 02:29, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

Creature Images
I think it might be a good idea to add pictures of creatures to the creature articles. They look rather bland, even those that are chock full of information. What do you all think? 17:56, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

I think that sounds good. Rat, Dog, and Sheep are some of the images that could use an image. Where are we going to get the images, though? All images online are copyrighted. 18:13, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Don't forget Wolf! xD Do what we did for Medicine. Its okay. 18:14, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Are you sure? I guess it's ok, then. 18:20, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

And, badger. :) As long as we put on the images, it should be fine.  18:24, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

I think I've found a good website. allows its images to be used freely on other websites, ans not only that, it have every creature except Twolegs. :) If you guys like this site, we can discuss which images to use as a group. :) 18:39, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, this site looks good! Some of the images aren't the best though (i.e. Wolverines). I guess it would work for the others. 18:58, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Of course, there's lots of articles that could use these pictures. I like the idea of putting on it. So if we took something from National Gographic, for example, they get the credit for it. 19:01, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Looks good! I think we should use it. Thanks for the link, Moonflight. :D 19:05, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

I looked I every animal image we might use and there is at least one that will be usable, and we won't exactly need wolverine pictures. :P 19:08, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Well, for Wolf we might. Oh well. I should be grateful for what you've done. :P The link's awesome! 20:09, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

But for Twolegs...wouldn't somebody feel weird if their picture was used for that on a Warriors website? I know some of our members wouldn't mind volunteering...but also...couldn't we just draw the picture like we do in PCA? (although I think they're waiting to do specific creature images) It's just a thought. 16:14, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

No, I don't think we should draw them. We didn't draw them for medicine, because they were "real" things, unlike the character images for PCA, since those were "imaginary" things. 16:19, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

yeah I agree real pictures would look better since they are real animals in the real world. Great site Moonflight! as for the twolegs maybe we could do a group picture of 5-6 twolegs so whoever is on there dosen't feel so weird? Oh no! emergency!  C a n y o n s o n g   Candypaw to the rescue!   17:22, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

What about prey? They have the list of animals on the page, should it be the same format as medicine or no? 17:41, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

I don't think we have any right to have pictures of Twolegs at all, but I do like having the same format for Prey as we have for Medicine! It would take a while though. 23:38, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Then we should probably make a template for it. And, since we plan to do so much work on Prey, we might as well make that our next content drive. :P 16:49, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, it seems more people could do Prey since it is such a broad subject. 18:47, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

I think we should have a set size for the images. What size should we use? 00:21, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

250 x 250? We used 150 x 150 for Medicine, and animals are larger than plants, so that seems ok. 22:30, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

That looks fine. Also, I agree to making a template for Prey. It would organize the page much better than what we have now. 22:34, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

Content Drive 2
So are we officially doing Prey as our next content drive? I thought we were doing Battles. Medicine's almost done, so we should start fixing either one up. 20:39, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

Well, true, Medicine is almost done, but we're not making much progress. I think we should just do Battles, since its simpler, or Tunnelers, and then do Prey, since it will take longer. 02:40, July 15, 2011 (UTC)

Ok, then. Battles it is! 17:57, July 15, 2011 (UTC)

Or Tunnelers... 23:59, July 15, 2011 (UTC)

Like I said before, Battles seems better since we can get that over with quicker. 02:09, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

The point isn't to get it over with, its to fix the article that needs more improvement, so then Prey would technically be the best choice. 15:45, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

Moonstone ~ Silver Nomination
I added in lots of citations, but I can't cite the last part since it is history. 22:31, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

Clan Meeting ~ Silver Nomination
I know it needs a lot of work, but I'm just putting it up to reserve it. I'm working on it right now. 22:33, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

There! I added in all the citations. Anything else? 00:26, July 18, 2011 (UTC)
