Tigerclaw's Fury/Cliffnotes - Silver Nomination
I finally finished expanding this today. Comments? 03:43, June 7, 2015 (UTC)

Mapleshade's Vengeance ~ Silver Nomination
Allegiances, Cliffnotes, Gallery. How does the quote thing work? Do I nominate a main quote for the book separately? 23:32, June 7, 2015 (UTC)

Yep, that's exactly what you do. Since we only use one quote, nominating some allows many to be selected and then the best one out of that is chosen by majority rule. Pretty sure it's in the guidelines somewhere... if not, idk why. I know I wrote something on this.

I suggest adding some details to the plot summary, but the cliffnotes could be shortened a bit. Not much, but they're a tad too detailed in some places. I also spotted 1 or 2 spelling/grammar errors in the cliffnotes. The Roster templates for ShadowClan and WindClan are also missing in the allegiances. 06:49, June 15, 2015 (UTC)

Revised That was all of the ShadowClan and WindClan cats in the allegiance, and no more appear in the book. The allegiance is as complete as he can be. 08:04, June 15, 2015 (UTC)

Mapleshade's Vengeance ~ Quote Nomination
You will regret this, Appledusk. That is my last promise to you. Chapter 4

The Life that she had known was over; if she couldn’t be a warrior, then she would dedicate every beat of her heart to avenging the deaths of her kits. Chapter 5

Nothing mattered now except taking revenge on the cat who had destroyed her world. She would wait here for as long as she had to – for the rest of her life, if it meant she could finally silence Patchkit’s wails. Chapter 8 23:53, June 7, 2015 (UTC)

I like the first one the best. 06:51, June 15, 2015 (UTC)

I think i like this quote best:

''I will raise them as Thunderclan untill they have been fully accepted. Then every cat will be able to cope with the truth. Why should it matter that their father lives in a diffrent clan? ''Chapter 1 PG 6  Emberstar    Floating in the stars of ember 03:45, June 29, 2015 (UTC)

I like my second one best. It's powerful, and outlines why the novel is called 'Mapleshade's Vengeance' and represents Mapleshade's mad grief and desire for revenge. 10:06, June 29, 2015 (UTC)

I'm torn between number 2 and number 3. But I think the second one would be the best. ` 00:22, July 2, 2015 (UTC)

Fire and Ice/Chapter 23 ~ Silver Nomination
Short chapter. Comments? 04:30, June 8, 2015 (UTC)

I like it - i vote for silver -  Emberstar    Floating in the stars of ember 03:46, June 29, 2015 (UTC)

I didn't see anything, but double-check just in case. Oh and Ember just as a reminder, try to keep your comments constructive, although this does look good :) There will be a vote later where you can vote for this to be silver grade. 05:01, July 3, 2015 (UTC)

Fire and Ice/Chapter 24 ~ Silver Nomination
Okay, I hope I did this right. Comments? 21:43, June 16, 2015 (UTC)

Nothing stands out to me, but it's always good to double check for grammar/spelling mistakes. 05:07, July 3, 2015 (UTC)

Joining Project Books
Hello, I'm ShadowBobcat10 and I'm interested in joining Project Books. I've read most of the books, and am planning to read all the new ones, too. I'd love to add summaries, fact check, and just keep book articles up to date.

23:14, June 24, 2015 (UTC)

Welcome to the project! Here are the guidelines to get you started and here is a chapter subpage tutorial if you need it. Ask a lead or here on the talk page if you have any questions. 04:42, July 3, 2015 (UTC)

Chapter sub-page
I was thinking that each chapter sub page (if theres a good 1) should get a main quote... just wanna get some other PB members thoughts on this! If it is accepted i could easily find quotes for that CSPs  Emberstar    Floating in the stars of ember 03:49, June 29, 2015 (UTC)

I was thinking of that too. Each chapter page gets one main quote. I'm wondering how it would be chosen, because a vote is a bit ridiculous. I think people will just choose and change if needed. 22:43, July 1, 2015 (UTC)

Sorry, but I disagree. Not everything needs a quote, and the amount of changing it would cause could be downright crazy. Some chapters wouldn't even have a good quote anyways- remember, not all of our characters even have quotes, because there's just some things that we can't find anything for.

I have to disagree as well. It isn't practical and as Snow said, there isn't always a good quote. 04:44, July 3, 2015 (UTC)

7.)"No,Clear Sky. After everything that's happened,we can't go back to how it was. Cats have died over the borders you created. Now you want us to pretend they were never there." Thunder, page 21

From now on we have to work to live together peacefully, and at the next full moonwe must return to this clearing to hear more messagesf rom the spirit cats." Tall Shadow, page 12

7.) "So that's why you've been so protective and hostile! All this time your responsibilies have been toomuch  for you. You tried to do the right thing, but you asked too much of yourself." Gray Wing, page 12

8.) "I do. I believe you could do this. Since I returned to the moor, I've heard nothing but horrible stories about the way you treat other cats. You're power-mad, Clear Sky. You don't care who you hurt to get what you want. And now...you're not the cat I came down from the mountains with.You're...You're an apology for a cat." Turtle Tail, pgae 280

9.) "If I let them know with  one twitch of a whisker that I doubt Clear Sky, they'll attack. He'l be torn apart. But he's my brother! And if we do that, we're no better thanhe is. The life we've tried to built will be over." Gray Wing's thoughts, page 280

10.) Out there was the other cats' camp. Out there was Gray Wing. Out there was hope. Narrator,pgae 302.

You know you can only do three quotes a book right? And I think you have to split them into different sections. 05:09, July 2, 2015 (UTC)

Since when did that rule come into effect? And I didn't see that anywhere on the rules. I was also told that "whatever floats my boat", so... 14:20, July 2, 2015 (UTC)

What are you talking about, Stealth? I came up with the idea for the quotes, and that's never once been a rule. I think you're confusing that with the "only three nominations at a time" thing PC has...

I get it now I'm confusing it with a limit of three quote nominations. Whoops. 22:06, July 2, 2015 (UTC)

Quote Nomination Stuff
Alrighty, because it's honestly beyond counterproductive, I'd like to propose actually getting rid of the quote nominations. Given the small memberbase that actually notices PB, it hardly gets any votes and results in ties or empty nominations half of the time?? It was useful back when I started it, because we had enough users to break ties... but as the members dwindle, the need for actual votes for these become less and less. Would anyone object to abolishing the need for quote nominations? If the memberbase becomes larger again, we can always readd them. I actually had this brought to my attention a while back, but didn't see the need for it until now.

So would the page just have whichever quote the editor deemed fit, and when the page is nominated for silver, it could be discussed if users think the quote should be changed? I'd be fine with it, just wondering if that's how this will work. 04:50, July 3, 2015 (UTC)

I was thinking of just letting someone chose, and if they find one better, they can change it if they wish. There are loads of quotes out there that would really fit for the books...some more than others, but that's besides the point. It would essentially work like the character pages- there really isn't enough people here for it to be fair.

Yeah, there really aren't :/ That sounds fine though. 04:58, July 3, 2015 (UTC)
