Gallery Back Covers - Silver Nomination
I got all the books. All I need to do is rename the images to fit the Book Covers. 01:39, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

Wow! Looks great! I actually nominated it bronze today and was hoping to make it silver, but you did better than what I could have done! 03:05, June 30, 2011 (UTC)


 * It's funny. I saw that it on the project page in the chart, and was about to change it, then I saw you already did. :3 03:30, June 30, 2011 (UTC)


 * Lol, yeah! :P 20:43, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

Looks good to me. :D 15:44, July 1, 2011 (UTC)

Should we be adding in Crookedstar's Promise (and the SkyClan ones, for that matter), since it comes out next week? And are these the back covers for the hardcover editions? Because the one I have for Outcast is different.  Law liet  Me ow 22:01, July 1, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, I guess we should add those in anyway. There must be different versions of the back cover. Can you try to find a picture of the back cover you have online? Then we can see if Moonflight should add that in. 02:24, July 2, 2011 (UTC)

There must be two versions. Some versions have a book summery and others have a list of books. Some books have one, some have the other, and some might have both. So, we'll each have to search our books and scan them if necessary. 02:28, July 2, 2011 (UTC)

SquirrelFlame, this is the one that I have. I get most of my books in paperback, so I think they vary from the hardcovers. I can go through and check mine if I have to (since I have all the books up to Crookedstar's Promise, which I'll get sometime this week).  Law liet  Me ow 01:03, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

Good idea. You check through yours, and see if they're the same. If not, you can add it in. 17:40, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Okay, a lot of mine already match what is up there, aside from one or two paperbacks. But, it doesn't really bother me. 00:47, July 21, 2011 (UTC)

August FA Suggestions?
Yes, I am aware that it's only the 3rd of July, but we might as well get a head start. Last month, a few people wanted to have a short story or play featured again, and Why is Jaypaw Blind?, Tigerstar: Heart of Evil?, and Spottedleaf's Honest Answer were brought up. I'm fine with any of those, but other suggestions are welcome. :) 01:29, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

Who cares how early it is? The sooner, the better, that way we have some time to think up a good summary. I suck at them. Anyways, I say that we do another play/short story. Any of the above suggestions have my full support (although I'm a Jayfeather fan, so I'm leaning towards Why is Jaypaw Blind? xD).  Law liet  Me ow 01:33, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

Why is Jayfeather Blind? is a good choice. Although like Cloudy, I support all of them. 03:29, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

I like "Why is Jaypaw Blind" too. 03:34, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

I started the August PC discussion in June. Early is my middle name. Moonearlyflight. :) I think Why is Jaypaw Blind? would be lovely. 17:11, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

Night Whispers? But if we're going with short story/plays, Why is Jaypaw Blind? is the one I'm rooting for. -- 22:12, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

I really like the idea of doing Why is Jaypaw Blind?. It seems good enough to be featured! 23:43, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

I support; I nominated it silver, and I believe it is good enough to be a gold featured article. :D 15:38, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

Since it's already the 15th, I decided to start the vote. Knowing me, I will forget about it. I often forget important things.  ℓαω ℓιєт  Li ght 13:36, July 15, 2011 (UTC)

Allegiances Crookedstar's Promise - Silver Nomination
They've been ready for a while now. I just felt it was appropriate to wait until Crookedstar's Promise was officially released. 20:56, July 5, 2011 (UTC)

I don't have possession of CP yet (I need to pick it up at the bookstore tomorrow)...and I gotta ask. Are there any cats that are included in the book that aren't in the Allegiances? We should include them too, right?  Law liet  Ta lk 01:04, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

Agreed. Other than that, looks great! :D 15:55, July 6, 2011 (UTC)


 * True. I'll look into that. 15:57, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

Wait. According to Helix's guidelines, it says that the Allegiances must be copied exact, so, we shouldn't that then... 00:39, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Ah, I forgot about that... I think we should have an extra section for the cats not included. It makes it seem like they're not part of the book otherwise.  Law liet  Ta lk 02:12, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Thats a good idea...or we could have a separate list. 20:03, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

I like the idea about having an extra section. Otherwise, like Cloudy said, it makes them seem like they're not part of the books. 17:34, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah. The extra section sounds better. 00:54, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

What are we doing with this? Are we keeping it how it is, or adding in another section? 00:45, July 21, 2011 (UTC)

I think we should add in the other section. 00:47, July 21, 2011 (UTC)

I agree too. Hmm... I'm thinking of asking Helix his opinion on this. Should I see what his ideas are? 00:53, July 21, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, Helix is much more experienced and will have good ideas to contribute. 02:33, July 21, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah. I trust his judgement. 02:35, July 21, 2011 (UTC)

All further discussion on this matter shall be taken to the bottom of the page, in the new section I created. 02:41, July 21, 2011 (UTC)

Night Whispers - Silver Nomination

 * The cliffnotes aren't finished, so...*gets the Night Whispers book from the Warriors part of library* I will do that now. -- 19:56, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

There should be a Publication List. Is there any praise? 19:58, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

I don't think so. I wanted to nominate it a few days ago, but I had hardly any publication history and there was no praise to work with, so I decided to wait. But yes, the cliffnotes need a lot of work. 23:44, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

I think a little publication history is better than none :). 19:37, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

Can you find any praise? And Alteda, you're right, some is better then none.  Law liet  Ta lk 20:14, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, there's a chinese version, another version, and then there's paperback, hardcover, and e-book. 02:36, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

I didn't know there was a Chinese version. That really needs to be added then.  Law liet  Ta lk 18:12, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

Could someone do the Publication List for me? I can't really figure out how to do it xD However, I'll finish adding in the cliffnotes. -- 21:36, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

I'll take care of it for you Icey. You're welcome. =]  Law liet  Li ght 23:48, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

Umm, I do believe I did it right. Not 100% sure...  Law liet  Li ght 00:16, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

I thought there was a Chinese version. How come it isn't on the Publication List? I tried to add it in, but I couldn't find it! :P 17:41, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

If there is one, I didn't see it. It's not on the Chinese book cover page, from what I saw. Can you provide me a link with the information, if possible?  Law liet  Li ght 17:47, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

I certainly can't find it. I'll contact Mistystar139 since she was the one who said there was a Chinese version. 23:25, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks! I'm going to fill in the cliffnotes, and hopefully I'll have them done tonight or tomorrow. 23:28, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Info on Chinese version here. Released 31 May 2011, translator Luo Jin Zhong. You may want to check this page for information on translations. 12:38, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

Helix, you are the most amazing person on here. I would have never found that otherwise.  Law liet  Li ght 12:48, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

Added in the Chinese version to the list. I do believe I got the right characters for it.  Law liet  Li ght 13:10, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

There is a Chinese version; its in the gallery, and now that Helix gave the link, there's proof. xD 16:42, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

Cliffnotes are almost done :P 18:05, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

Cliffnotes are done. 00:10, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

Nice job! This looks good. 18:51, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

Great work! Its a lot better now. 15:50, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks! Are there any more comments? 20:28, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

I have nothing. If I don't see anything for 24 hours, I'll put up the vote. 20:38, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Vote is up. Enjoy. 00:44, July 21, 2011 (UTC)

Warrior's Refuge ~ Silver Nomination
This nomination is for the Cliffnotes, Gallery, and Main. I've fixed and expanded cliffnotes, expanded main, found references for the cats on cover, and I'm working on the Publication List. 17:17, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

Looks good for it only being a manga suummary. Cliffnotes are in order, and the gallery looks complete. I'd say this is a job well done. The publication list looks amazing, too.  Law liet  Ta lk 18:11, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

The Turkish cover looks kind of blurry. Is it possible to find a better cover? It's ok if it's not; I know how hard it can be to find covers. 18:12, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

Sorry, I suck at covers. :P 18:18, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

So, I've just added the publication history for all the english versions, German, Hellenic, Czech, Turkish, and Romanian. :D I think thats all I needed to do, comments? 18:51, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

Oops, forgot Russian. Added. Comments? 18:58, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

I think it's fine! 22:07, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

Since nobody has said anything the past... five days, I went ahead and added a vote. 00:10, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

Uninvited Guests ~ Silver Nomination
I know it's not even close to silver, but I've been filling in all the adventures, and I'm not going to stop. =D So this is most like a reservation. 23:01, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

It's looking good, Squirrel! Just add the remaining details, and you should be good!  Law liet  Ta lk 23:09, July 11, 2011 (UTC)

I know this is probably a stupid question, but how do you make one of the flowcharts? 00:53, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

It's not a stupid question. It's actually a very good one. I have no clue how to make one, honestly... That's the ONLY PB-related thing I don't know how to do... XD  Law liet  Ta lk 01:18, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

Oh. Well, maybe you could ask one of the people that made one. In my opinion, that's the only thing Uninvited Guests needs right now. I would contact someone, but you're the leader of PB, so they probably know you better and you'll have a greater chance of replying. XD 01:28, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

I'll ask Helix about it. And btw, I'm only deputy. Rainlegs is leader, remember? <span style="background-color: #B7CEEC; -moz-border-radius: 10px 2px; -webkit-border-radius: 12px 4px; padding: 1px 5px 0px 5px;"> Law liet  Ta lk 01:32, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

Well, you seem so active that I've always thought of you as leader! Wow... You learn something new every day! XD 01:34, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

I'm glad you think that, Squirrel. Thanks. =] I would love to be leader, but I don't want to sound greedy. Anyways, I've sent an email to Helix, and I hope he'll reply. <span style="background-color: #B7CEEC; -moz-border-radius: 10px 2px; -webkit-border-radius: 12px 4px; padding: 1px 5px 0px 5px;"> Law liet  Ta lk 01:35, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

Hey Cloudsky and all. There is no easy or straightforward way to make the flowcharts. You have to create it manually in an image editor (paint, photoshop, gimp etc) by making little boxes, adding text, then connecting them. I suggest to draft the flowchart on paper, so you could see which would be the best way to arrange the elements in relation to each other. It could take more than 10 drafts to get it right, but don't give up. Once you're satisfied, you can start making it in an image editor. It's difficult, but not impossible. Kind regards, 19:30, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, Helix! I've already started making the drafts on paper. It's taking a while, but I'm getting there. Thanks again! 23:30, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

Holy crap, that was quick. Thanks, Helix. Now I know for future references. In fact, I'm making sure that what he said goes onto the guidelines. <span style="background-color: #B7CEEC; -moz-border-radius: 10px 2px; -webkit-border-radius: 12px 4px; padding: 1px 5px 0px 5px;"> Law liet  Li ght 02:56, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

I check my mail daily, you know. ;) Yes, it will take a while to arrange the boxes so that the connections between them would look nice and clean, instead of a chaos of crisscrossing lines. I suggest to number the sections in your draft like "1", "2", "3" etc, then read through the adventure and make a list like "from 1 you can progress to 2 and 5, from 2 you can progress to 1, 3, and 8"... and then try making the draft. It's not easy and will take at least a dozen drafts. Don't worry if you cannot get it right; it is only an optional thing that looks nice, but doesn't have much use, so it's no big deal if the article does not have one. Take care and kind regards. 10:29, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Do you think the ending can be expanded? 16:05, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Well, no. That's the ending that's on the other ones too and nothing else can be added. Yes, Helix, I've already numbered them 1 to 10, and I think I have a good enough version. I'll work on putting it on the computer now. 17:44, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Just so you guys know, it's going to take a long time. I've only just started adding in arrows, and all the text has to go at the end. Just a heads up! =) 19:23, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Take as long as you need. I'm not impatient. <span style="background-color: #B7CEEC; -moz-border-radius: 10px 2px; -webkit-border-radius: 12px 4px; padding: 1px 5px 0px 5px;"> Law liet  Li ght 20:01, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Finished! It took kind of long, sorry. And it's also kind of big compared to the others. But I tried my best! What do you think? 23:14, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Great work! 16:45, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

Since there haven't been any comments for a few days, the vote has been put up. Enjoy. 22:15, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Sign of the Moon- Silver?
I think I did a pretty good job with Sign of the Moon, what do you guys think? I think it's summarized fairly well. 01:04, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Looks good, but the Plot Summary should be expanded, and it needs a publication list. Also, take a look at the cliffnotes, as they need to be finsihed. =) <span style="background-color: #B7CEEC; -moz-border-radius: 10px 2px; -webkit-border-radius: 12px 4px; padding: 1px 5px 0px 5px;"> Law liet  Li ght 01:14, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, it could certainly be expanded. I think you should add more references to the trivia and add another cover to the gallery. I think there's an e-book or something. 02:46, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

So, all the other links need to be ready before the main article can be ready? 13:58, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

E-books don't need covers; none of the books have them in the galleries. E-books just need to be in the publication list. 16:14, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Right, I knew that! ;) But, yes. I'm pretty sure that the other links need to be ready before it can be nominated. 17:47, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, they do. 16:51, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

Ok, I'll work on that in a little bit (I'm not feeling well right now) so I just thought I'd let you know. But shouldn't it be at least bronze, not "started"? 20:44, July 15, 2011 (UTC)

I guess the main article is good enough to be bronze right now. I'll go change that. 22:30, July 15, 2011 (UTC)

Can the summary be expanded just a little bit? 00:17, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

Please comment on this forum regarding setting up rules for the new chat room. 22:23, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

Escape from the Forest ~ Silver Nomination
Yes, I know it needs a lot of work, but I'm working on it right now. 22:08, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

Cite the description 22:20, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

Ok, I think I fixed everything. Did I miss anything? 02:58, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

Can you break down the first paragraph a bit. It's too big. 00:16, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

There are some grammar/spelling mistakes in the cliffnotes, but I think I fixed them all. And all sentences should have periods at the ends, but I added in the missing ones... 15:51, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

Done. And I didn't know about the periods. Since they're notes, I didn't think it was necessary. Oh well, thanks anyway, Mistystar! 16:40, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, all cliffnote sentences must end in periods. 22:55, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Anything else? 17:51, July 20, 2011 (UTC)

Battles of the Clans ~ Silver Nomination
Same as above. I'm working on it right now, so I don't need comments such as, "Expand it more," or "Give it a Publication List". 22:09, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

Finish the cliffnotes. 22:15, July 16, 2011 (UTC)

I'm working on the cliffnotes... 00:04, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

Cite the cats on the cover. 16:40, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

I didn't get any references for that, so I don't think it was proven yet. I really don't know, I could be mistaken. I added that Blackstar was perceived to be and the others were thought to be. 16:44, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

I really think that could be rephrased.... Also, can you find any praise for it? Check on Barnes and Nobel or Borders' websites if you need to; I know they have some up there for almost every book. 23:24, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks Cloudy! I found one praise for it and I rephrased the sentence. 19:21, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Looks much better. Thanks, Squirrel. 19:23, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Still working on the cliffnotes... 19:56, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Cliffnotes done! Anything else? 21:47, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

The Cliffnotes look amazing! Job well done!! 22:11, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks! It took a while, though... :P Anything else? 00:08, July 20, 2011 (UTC)

Warrior's Return ~ Silver Nomination
I expanded the cliffnotes and fixed the grammar and punctuation; found all the references for Main, and now I just need to do the Publication List... 23:20, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

Looks good to me. But, can the plot summary be broken down any? 23:22, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

Shouldn't the Praise say Coming Soon instead of Coming? 23:24, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

Fixed; But I can't break down the summary any more. 23:31, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

That's fine. No worries. =) 23:53, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

Added a Publication List. 23:57, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

Return to the Clans ~ Silver Nomination
Like Squirrelflame did, I'm going to nominate this just to reserve it, but I'm still working on it... 00:02, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Fixed and expanded cliffnotes; added citation for cats on cover... 00:08, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Oh, good. I don't have this one, so, thanks for working on it. *is glad* 00:10, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

No problem. xD Finished Publication List and Plot Summary... 00:12, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

I can't find the citations for the Trivia, because I don't have the book. Help? 00:14, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

That I can't help with. Hmm, maybe ask Squirrel if she has the book? 00:17, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

She doesn't own any books, but she might have it from the library... 15:52, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

You might have to get a better cover for the book because Tadpole has a white blotch on his shoulder, and the actual book doesn't. 19:11, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

It doesn't? Okay, then. I'm not good with covers, though... 19:22, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

I'll go find another one. =) 19:24, July 19, 2011 (UTC)
 * Never mind. There are two different versions, and the one on Barnes and Nobel does indeed show the white blotch. However, the library binding one does not. 19:27, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Oh, I see. We should add that in the trivia and put both covers in the gallery. 19:34, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Sounds good to me. I'll get right on that. 19:35, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Oh, okay. Thanks! I'll go add the other one to the Publication List then. 19:48, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Is it showing up in the gallery? I can't see it; all it says it 220 px. 19:54, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

I named it right, but it's because of the extension that it's not working. The JPG needs to be lowercased... >.> 19:57, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

I uploaded a version, too. It's right here: File:Cover.jpg Except I didn't name it right. However, the jpg isn't capitalized on mine so we might be able to use it. 20:13, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

I'm having issues with this gallery...... 20:21, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

You got it! It's better now. 20:25, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

I changed the name for you...or for me. Whatever. xD I'll delete the extra one, then. And I added it to the Publication List. 20:38, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Characters not included in the Allegiances
Should they be added to the allegiances page, or just left alone? Now, you all know my opinion on this, but, I think I should get the opinions of the other users before any type of decision is made. So, comments, anyone? 02:40, July 21, 2011 (UTC)

May I join?
