Warriors Wiki talk:Books

Canon
Hey so I found this page floating around with no project on it, and it seemed more PB oriented than anything so I thought to pop it in here. Ik it's with the category of Role Play Phenomenon, and everything else from there has been deleted, but... couldn't it be revamped? I wanted to pose the question here of whether it should be deleted like the rest of the category, or made a part of PB and revamped/ add new stuff and such. Thoughts?

Yea, I agree with that. It is information for the reader and it should be in PB. 14:55, 4/22/2017 14:55, April 22, 2017 (UTC)ggC1ND3R_STR1P3

Me too. It does contain many PB-related articles. --  17:35, April 29, 2017 (UTC)

I think it should be revamped and made part of PB. 16:14 Sun May 7

It looks like everyone supports the page being revamped. Any other comments? 23:34 Sun May 14

Okay, looks like everyone agrees to revamping it. How should we go about it? I say we keep what's there + add the facts that we now take stuff from Kates blog and Vicky + add cites for the definition of canon from wikipedia, and maybe include a dropdown or some kind of image/graphic/template depicting the series, the canon books, or just something else significant. Just something book related to tie it to PB.

Head's up, I got a nice idea for this, but I'm at work and can't type it up. I'll comment more after my doctor's appointment later. Just letting y'all know to hold off for a little bit so I can chime in.

OKAY a few days late, but sorry, things came up. I think we could revamp the page, but I'm not totally sure what exactly we'd be taking from Kate's blog or Vicky's Facebook pages? Would we take them saying what information is canon and all of that? Because honestly, it wouldn't hurt to at least mention the role play aspect, but mention that this is a place for strict canon information only? Having a definition of what canon is, what counts as a valid canon source, ect, would be an excellent idea. I'm not sure, though, exactly how big you'd want this page to be? We could actually tie it into all projects and just keep it as a general "canonical information" page, or something along those lines... it doesn't have to be just for PB if all projects can benefit from it.

Ah yeah, I meant saying on the page that we take info from Kate's Blog/Vicky's Facebook as canon, and all of that. It'd almost act as a cite guide, even though it isn't really one. I like the idea of tying it into all of the projects, but I also think it should be linked to one project in particular to receive a silver grade. Perhaps that project should be PR instead of PB, though, if we're including more real life aspects than not.

Yes, that's basically what I meant. Although, if we're going to shift this to PR, I would highly suggest having everything ready first, due to PR often being forgotten and too small to get maybe more than a comment or two. A page like this should...really have more than one or two agreeing comments and an actual discussion. Icy is also without a computer for a little while, so I'd suggest also going to poke her once you've decided what to do with it, that way she knows to comment. Does anyone have a rough draft of what they'd want it to look like, or are we going to follow the layout used on other pages?

Poking my head in and mentioning I am still without a laptop so please don't yell at me. But may I be messaged once you all have a good idea of where the conversation is going? I will not be able to check the Wiki as often. 02:35, June 23, 2017 (UTC)

Yeah of course we can message you :)^^ My idea for the format was a version of Warriors Books in that we have a blurb up top that says something like 'Canon is what is considered real.. etc. and is determined by x, y, or z' and that we have different sections and sub-sections for each topic. Those topics could be like what cites we take, specifically which wording of cites we take from Vicky's Facebook and Kate's Blog, and then what counts from the books, erin hunter chats, etc. and stuff.

Are there any more comments on this? 01:29, July 27, 2017 (UTC)

Pinestar's Choice/Chapter 5 ~ Silver Nomination

 * In the main quote, maybe link 'receive his nine lives' to Leadership Ceremony?
 * "He asks if they should go now, and is concerned that he won't be as great a leader as Doestar was. The mottled gray tom tells him that he'll do great as leader." 'leader' sounds a little redundant, maybe just get rid of the 'as leader' in the 2nd sentence so that it just reads "...he'll do great."?
 * " He introduces himself as Thunderstar, and tells Pineheart that leaders face difficult decisions, and that the to-be leader will have to face the most difficult decision." 'difficult decision' sounds redundant
 * "Pinestar wakes up with his nine lives, and tells Goosefeather he received his nine lives." 'nine lives' sounds redundant
 * In the paragraph, "Pinestar is about to go on a patrol, when a voice teases him that he doesn't have to patrol now that he's leader..." Could you add a transition like 'later' or something to the beginning of the paragraph so it isn't a sudden tranisition from the previous paragraph, where he was back at the Moonstone?
 * "The tom trusts Mumblefoot to organize patrols and is well liked by the Clan. He knows he can join a patrol, but he doesn't want the Clan to think he's interfering or trying to take on too many responsibilities." In the second paragrpah, I'm confused on who the 'he' is.
 * "The tom responds that it's weird, then asks Pinestar how come he's talking to the kittypet. He asks if he was supposed to get his ears clawed off. The cats say the ThunderClan cat does that." in the 2nd and 3rd sentence, the 'he's and the 'cats' are confusing
 * "Jake purrs that it's a cool name, and he says his mother is Crystal, and his littermates are Ferris and Whiskers. The tom doesn't know where they went." It's a little confusing on who 'the tom' is. Same in this sentence: "Jake says he'll tell his friends that wild cats aren't as fierce as they think, but the red tom warns him that some are, and that they should keep to their territory. The tom says they'll see about that, and vanishes over the fence." 23:09 Thu Aug 24

The Lost Warrior -> Graystripe's Adventure
Just as a head's up, guys, to keep with the correct arc names, I've changed the categories we're using for the Graystripe books.

The full-color version released earlier this month has the arc labeled as Graystripe's Adventure. To go with that, I've moved everything that was in that category to the new category. This also clears up confusion I've seen over the years, since The Lost Warrior is also the first book in the set. I'm going to leave the file names as they are, since I'm not 100% sure how those templates work with file names lmao.

If I broke something or if something else needs renamed/fixed/ect, go ahead and let me know.
