Warriors Wiki talk:Reality

Kate's Blog
I've been thinking about it for a while and shouldn't we have an article on kate's blog? A lot of interesting information comes from there, and we can format it the same way we did with Vicky's facebook, and the erin hunter chats. But it also may be an invasion of privacy ... I don't know. What do you guys think? 17:51, September 22, 2015 (UTC)

I agree it should get a page but format it like Vicky's Page? Not sure... 02:55, September 28, 2015 (UTC)

That sounds like a good idea to be honest. Does anyone else agree? Not that anyone's gonna see this <_<    03:03, September 28, 2015 (UTC)

I agree. We have been using Kate's blog for reliable references for a while now, and it definitely deserves an article. 04:41, September 28, 2015 (UTC)

Are you going to add the questions answered on her blog as well? Because that is madness. There are literally hundreds of questions/answers/ect on that blog...but having a page for it is good- just be sure we're not putting anything too personal, due to respect for Kate and her privacy and stuff.

No, not the questions. I'd think it'd just be good to explain what the blog is, and how questions are usually answered, and you could try and go. And you're right, I don't want to put anything personal. 16:58, September 30, 2015 (UTC)

Any more comments on this? 22:47, December 31, 2015 (UTC)

Gonna poke this. 05:52, April 2, 2016 (UTC)

A page should be made for her blog, but yeah I just looked at Vicky's Facebook page and there are so many questions there, and they must only be a fraction of the amount that were actually answered. However I do think that a few examples of important questions should be put- such as the cite that showed that Slash and his rogues are in the Dark Forest; Owl Song's description, etc. 15:20 Sat Apr 2

I'm not in the project yet but can i comment on this? Her page definitely needs and article, but some major things do need to be on there.

I think we can pick and choose what we can put on? Maybe not such minor stuff like Thunderstar's coat, but some big stuff like Slash and rogues as Maple said. I don't think descriptions are that important though. 23:05, April 4, 2016 (UTC)

Poking this. 11:40, May 31, 2016 (UTC)

Yep, that seems like a good idea, to choose what we put on the page as examples. 17:07 Sat Jun 4

Foreign Translaters
This was just an idea I had when I was adding the foreign language editions of books, but maybe the publishers could get Reality articles too (not for all languages though, since I know some only have like 1 warriors book published, but like the German, French, Chinese, etc. translator)? I know it might be a bit harder to find information because of the language barier, but there aren't really many PR articles anyways, and all of the English people involved in the series get articles. idk, feel free to disagree, but thoughts? 15:07 Sat Apr 16

I don't really think it's necessary for every publisher to have it's own article, as we can just link the Reality pages of other language warriors wikis' at the bottom of our pages(sometimes). I'd agree to having a 'Foreign Publishers' page with all of the publishers from all languages lister though.

Agreed. I think that they could all share a page. 17:02, April 23, 2016 (UTC)

The title could probably be Foreign Translators or something, and although they are all just amazing as the authors, there are so many of them I think they should just share a page. 00:09, May 14, 2016 (UTC)

Yeah, that seems like a good idea. 19:45 Sun May 29

Do we have any ideas on how we could format the page? 14:04, June 4, 2016 (UTC)

Maybe each language's translators/audio-book readers could get a section on the page, and each person could have a template similar to the Minor Characters template? idk just an idea. 17:27 Sat Jun 4

HarperCollins
So the other day I was going to link 'Harpercollins' in a page, when I realized that there isn't even a page for it at all. Considering that they publish all of the warriors books (excluding manga) I think it would be important for them to have a page. (Tokyopop should probably get a page too) Thoughts? 19:48 Sun May 29

I think we had this discussion a long while back, but nothing ever came of it. I don't understand why we don't have a page for the publisher to begin with, honestly.

Yeah it warrants a page... I always thought we had one

I'm surprised it doesn't have a page either. It should...as Warriors is published through HC... Jaysnow (talk) 19:54, May 29, 2016 (UTC)

I definitely agree with HarperCollins getting their own page, but I'm "eh" on TokyoPop ... 21:09, May 29, 2016 (UTC)

TokyoPop wouldn't be as important as HC, but I still think it should get a page. I know that I myself used to wonder why there were no more mangas being made, and before joining the wiki I would have liked a page for it (and still would because tbh I still don't know the exact reason as to why there are no more manga books). 22:50 Sun May 29

TokyoPop's brach sections went under years ago, and that's why we haven't gotten anything. I don't even know if the company itself is even around... I doubt it. HC had to publish the After the Flood themselves lol

Well I don't even think TokyoPop really needs its own page but I do agree with HaperCollins having its own page, but how would we format it? Also, if HarperCollins gets its own page shouldn't we have a page for the Warriors website? (warriorcats.com) 14:02, June 4, 2016 (UTC)

The warriors website should get a page, because the warriors app has one so this probably should too. I'm also kind leaning toward TokyoPop just getting a section somewhere, not necessarily it's own page

Lol I always thought that the website had a page too. I mean, the information on it can't be used as a source so I'm not entirely sure if it should have a separate page, but I guess it is also still pretty important. I still think that TokyoPop deserves its own page, there isn't really any other page that has a section it could be put into anyways, and they published the manga so I really think it should get a page. 17:03 Sat Jun 4

Idk I still think tokyopop should deserve a section and not a page. But for the warriorcats site, it's not just infomration - it has a timeline, a map of the lake, forest, and journey towards the sun drown place, games, quizzes, "meet the warriors", etc. So there's a lot of content that although might not prove vital to our wiki's information, there is a lot of stuff on it and I think it deserves its own page. 14:44, June 5, 2016 (UTC)

Well I guess that the website could get a page b/c the app has a page, but I don't see why TokyoPop, who publisher I think 10 books, shouldn't get a page when people like Bettina Kurkoski or Ray Shappell, who have only worked on 1 book, should get a page. Sure they aren't as important as HC, but tokyopop still published the manga which is pretty important I think. 15:53 Sun Jun 5

Leadership
Atelda and I have been talking and she has handed over leadership to me of the project and I only hope that I will be as good as a leader to PR as she was. My deputy will be Spookycat. 22:55, May 31, 2016 (UTC)

I'm honored that you've chosen me, and I'll try my best to be a good deputy for PR. Thank you so much! :)

July FA
I guess we should get this project back in motion. Any ideas for a July FA? I was thinking we could go with Wayne McLoughlin, since he recently died and it would be nice to honor him. 03:27, June 12, 2016 (UTC)

We should definitely do him, he was a really good cover artist and his article looks complete

Finally a new Reality FA! ^^ Yep he does seem like a good idea. The only thing is, his death date should be added I think, and it probably shouldn't say that he currently lives in Vermont. ;-; 14:06 Sun Jun 12

We don't know when he died though - Vicky only said he died "last year", and it was 2016 when she said that. 14:55, June 12, 2016 (UTC)

Did a bit of poking around and found his death record, and I'm pretty sure it's him since everything matches. Idk if reliable, but it seems to be

I'm actually not sure if we can use that. It's not confirmation, and who knows ... there could be an exact person like him ... I don't know, what does everyone else think? 21:07, June 21, 2016 (UTC)
