Warriors Wiki talk:Characters

Content Drive
Since Mudclaw (WC), apart from TUG and Starlight, has a filled out history, and most of the problems the article had before had been fixed, such as quotes and history, and since I'm close to nominating him at this point, I think we should have a new Content Drive - and I have a new idea, as well.

-Singular cat; For this one, I choose Sharpclaw (SC) - his history needs lots of expansion, and more quotes could be used. He's in a similar state Mudclaw was in before his article became CD.

-Multiple cats; Skye suggested this earlier, and they thought of SkyClan in general, since most of the cats' history needs work.

What do you all think? 20:49, August 16, 2014 (UTC)

Hm, what about a cat that's already silver but needs loads of work. Sandstorm would be a prime example of this, she's extremely major but yet her history is pitifully short in most sections. I don't really like the idea of doing multiple cats, because honestly it would be a hassle to keep track of and project members would have to go through a total of 111 articles and expand them. With the project's current size, I think it would be an enormous task to undertake, especially with already approved ideas in other projects that need tons of work (such as Chapter Subpages, and soon the Events Pages). I think it would be an unneeded hassle at this point. But, to me, Sandstorm and Sharpclaw are the forerunners for the next Content Drive. 23:26, August 16, 2014 (UTC)

iirc i don't think Skye meant all of them - just the ones that are on PC's front page ^^;; 18:54, August 17, 2014 (UTC)

I did mean the ones listed on the front page, since they appear to be in the greatest need of work. Why only one character, when someone can easily get that done in a couple days if they're feeling up to it? I think perhaps having a couple as content drives would be a good idea. Perhaps Sharpclaw, Harveymoon, and Waspwhisker? There's one fairly major SkyClan cat, and two more minor ones. I never said to do all of them- that would be madness, even by my standards, but perhaps pick a couple and shift the focus. Or, maybe pick more than one cat, so... say, Sandstorm, Sharpclaw, and Owl Eyes? And you wouldn't have to go through all 111 articles. A fair bit of them are already fairly good (I've written quite a few of them myself), and you could pick out the top two or three that are in need of the most work.

I agree with Sharpclaw being one. I have SkyClan's Destiny, so I can help out with that part of it, which goes for any SC cat. 12:59 AM, Fri Aug 22, 2014

Multiple articles are interesting, but I'm more peaked at the idea of having an article already silver being the content drive. There's already an incentive for Sharpclaw, Harveymoon, and Waspwhisker because they're still bronze. Yet, focusing on a character that needs work that is already silver gives a bit of incentive in completing the content drive. 04:31, August 22, 2014 (UTC)

Even with only three articles, I think it would be daunting to other users and still hard to do. 18:07, August 23, 2014 (UTC)

Two of those three cats are rather minor and wouldn't take long for them to be expanded, especially in Harveymoon's case. If we're doing singular cats, though, Sharpclaw still stands as my choice. (trying to get more attention for this.) 01:28, September 1, 2014 (UTC)

well, I don't think it would be best, but I do think that a few cats would be better than a whole group of cats. oh, also, waspwhisker's silver already. 02:35, September 8, 2014 (UTC)

we need some more opinions guys 02:39, September 18, 2014 (UTC)

I think more than one or two articles would be a bit intimidating for those of us who can't write an article or large section all in a few days with it still being quality work. Any more would be too much in my opinion. With the other projects already having fairly large content drives, a smaller content drive might be a better choice until the other two projects have gotten farther into their current content drives. I like the idea of improving an existing silver article and support Sandstorm for that. 03:55, September 18, 2014 (UTC)

Injuries
I'd like to suggest adding spoilered injuries into the trivia for cats such as Brightheart, Cinderpelt, or One-eye to name a few. These cats tend to have plenty of descriptions of their injuries that we could write a sentence or two about them for the sake of reference. There's really nowhere else reliable that has them listed and we could easily cite them. It would make it easier for artist or fanfiction writers to describe the cats accurately, and it's in the trivia so its completely within our spoiler rule. If describing their injuries is something that would gross people out we can always put them in a dropdown, but I still think it would be a handy tool for people looking into it so they don't have to search through the books. 3:18 Thu Sep 11 2014

I'd support this, and honestly, I never got why we didn't put it in the description. Yes it's spoilers, but the charart shows it and the spoiler tag could always be moved up. 03:20, September 11, 2014 (UTC)

More comments please guys~ 23:05, October 18, 2014 (UTC)

I also support this. I've never understood why this couldn't be in the description with the charart showing the injury. 23:36, October 18, 2014 (UTC)

I wouldn't mind just moving the spoiler tag to the top of the page and just adding the injuries. It's not like they're not constantly called this, whether it be in the allegiances, official art, or even by the authors themselves. Plus, it's obvious when it comes to Brightheart and Briarlight especially- their chararts are a dead giveaway. Moving the spoiler tag seems to be the best idea to me- otherwise we're going against our own spoiler rule by having these injuries in our chararts.

Sagewhisker
So I worked on the Yellowfang's Secret part of Sagewhisker's page, but I'm not sure if I got enough information. If someone would be so kind as to give it a read-through and tell me in I'm missing anything big, I would love you forever. 9:21 PM, Sun Sep 28, 2014

Hello? 4:26 PM, Sun Oct 5, 2014

Could I possibly get a little feedback, or should I just go ahead and remove the stub tags? 10:39 PM, Tue Oct 14, 2014

It could be expanded far more - if memory serves me right, she has 15 pages of mentions in YS. Try going back to see for more. 22:42, October 14, 2014 (UTC)

Okay, I'll try to work on it sometime this week. Thanks :) 11:15 PM, Sat Oct 18, 2014

Really tho...
Hey guys! I haven't been able to read the books or even participate in this project. My interest is evaporating and I feel someone else would be better suited as deputy. Schönen Dank. C: 01:58, October 13, 2014 (UTC)

sorry to see you go, but thanks for being such a great seniow warrior, deputy, and leader of the project! 15:08, October 19, 2014 (UTC)

Reedshine ~ Silver Nomination
Not much to put for her, soo. Comments? 15:15, October 19, 2014 (UTC)

Is she mentioned in TUG? 19:59, October 19, 2014 (UTC)

Nope, actually. Amber went and checked for me earlier, and she couldn't even find a mention of her. 20:01, October 19, 2014 (UTC)

The 'family' section is formatted wrong and is missing a lot of characters- remember, Shellheart is Reedshine's grandson, and we need all of that. Also make sure to update the status template with the character names- I went and added those last night. She also needs the family tree, but those are a pain in the butt to format (I even have issues and I'm probably one of the more experienced users with wikicode here) so that could probably be worked on later.

Pouncetail ~ Silver Nomination
Fun, fun, fun. Comments? 15:27, October 19, 2014 (UTC)

Scarlet ~ Silver Nomination
I like her. Comments? 15:35, October 19, 2014 (UTC)

Patchkit_(TC) ~ Silver nomination
So I think this is my first nomination... IDK. Comments? 17:32 Sun Oct 19

The grammar in The Ultimate Guide appears to be a bit confusing, and it needs to written in present tense (I think?). The family tree is also missing and needs to be added, and I believe Shellheart's line (going from him to current) would also need to be added since Patchkit and Appledusk and Reedshine's kits are all related due to sharing the same father.

New Deputy
Hey all, with 'teldy resigning I've decided that Bbun will be the next deputy of PC! Congrats Beebs! 19:53, October 19, 2014 (UTC)

Hopekit - Silver Nomination
that's all i can find. comments? (anyone else think her name should be sunkit or shadowkit from arti's fanfic on wfw?)  20:10, October 19, 2014 (UTC)

Hmm, she was mentioned in Secrets of the Clans, so add that in, as her sibling as that. 20:12, October 19, 2014 (UTC)

Can you edit the family tree to change the two unknown females to Hopekit and Wishkit? Other than that, I see nothing off the top of my head...but maybe add a quote if possible about Yellowfang seeing her daughters in StarClan? I know that's mentioned in Yellowfang's Secret.

Done, and I added a quote from SotC because I thought it fit better in the page. c: 20:33, October 19, 2014 (UTC)

Wishkit - Silver Nomination
i wish these kits would have survived. comments? 20:34, October 19, 2014 (UTC)
