Warriors Wiki talk:Characters

Oddfoot - ThunderClan, SkyClan, or No Clan
Okay, so this is one of the things that's been kinda annoying me since I joined and even before that, I kept telling myself to start a discussion, but then I kept forgetting, so here we go.

Oddfoot is currently listed as ThunderClan, however in Code of the Clans, he is just said to have lead Lionstar and Greeneyes into the SkyClan camp clearing. So, is he really SkyClan, doing what countless cats have done in the past, lead other non-Clan cats into the clearing, or is he ThunderClan, visiting SkyClan with his leader and deputy. Or, should he be classified as no-clan, because it never states the Clan that he's in. I tend to think that he's SkyClan, because he lead Lionstar and Greeneyes, but it's up to the project.

What do you guys think? 20:02, August 18, 2013 (UTC)

I think we'd be the safest with just a no-clan ranking for now because it would be an assumption both ways since the meaning is up to extreme interpretation. 03:38, August 22, 2013 (UTC)

I agree with Teldy, no Clan ranking is the safest route. 00:02, August 23, 2013 (UTC)

Dapplenose - Silver Nomination
Rewrote most of the history, comments? 20:34, August 18, 2013 (UTC)

Maybe give her another quote? o3o 20:36, August 18, 2013 (UTC)

Sorry I forgot I had this up, I'll try to get one tonight. 21:05, August 31, 2013 (UTC)

I couldn't find a good one, unless someone would like me to add the one when she asks Mistystar to join them. 03:20, September 1, 2013 (UTC)

Reena (KP) ~ Silver Nomination
Comments? I'll work on cites soon. 21:12, August 20, 2013 (UTC)

I thought everything should be cited before nominating? It seems like you're reserving the article, in a sense? o.O

Ahh, derp, I did cite her rank though, so I think that's done o3o 21:23, August 20, 2013 (UTC)

That was not reserving, other users have done almost the exact same thing. And it's not like the whole page was unfinished, it was just a few cites which she put up right after she posted this. 01:21, August 23, 2013 (UTC)

Switching the Switch to tabs
This is a pretty minor little discussion, but would anyone have any objections to switching the switch template to a tabber feature. Reason being is their are still profuse glitches with the switch coding, and tabbers achieve the same purpose with little, if any at all, glitches. Switch coding is featured on Mapleshade, Brackenfur, Thornclaw in the charcat, and when you click from alt to alt, you get a double title of the image. So what do you guys say? 03:49, August 22, 2013 (UTC)

I think it would be a good idea, since the current ones are a bit glitchy. 18:17, August 22, 2013 (UTC)

Yes, I agree with switching 100% it would be so much easier and it annoys me when that glitch pops up. lol 20:29, August 22, 2013 (UTC)

I've noticed this. I agree, it's a great idea. 00:00, August 23, 2013 (UTC)

Sounds like a good idea to me. I hope it'll fix the glitches. x.x I see it used on other wikis all the time and it appears to work just fine.

This seems like a reasonable idea, after all, nobody wants glitches and annoying problems. x.x

Author's Word vs. Repetition of description
Skye brought up an interesting topic about one of Vicky's comments on the facebook page, so the following is our skype conversation about it:
 * [8/21/2013 9:31:44 PM] Skye: https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=10151978998222454&id=29566467453&comment_id=27652803&offset=0&total_comments=12
 * Vicky says that Tawnypelt should be tawny/pale ginger throughout the entire series.
 * [8/21/2013 9:31:50 PM] Skye: What do we do in this case?
 * [8/21/2013 9:31:56 PM] Skye: Since the tortie thing appears to be a mistake
 * [8/21/2013 9:35:19 PM] Atelda: Author's word vs. repetition of description, mmm, well with Vicky's word, she's the plot designer per say so she has probably the general idea of warriors more than the others, thus a better understanding of Tawnypelt throughout the entirety of the series, yet in the repetition of the series, more readers would probably agree with the image we have now since not everyone's on Vicky's facebook, plus the repetition is published with all the authors relatively agreeing in the multiple books.
 * [8/21/2013 9:36:16 PM] Atelda: I would go with Vicky's word because if we contradict it, then we'd set the image that we know more about the warriors series than the actual author and that wouldn't be a good reception for the wiki.

So, agree, disagree, other variables/points, and overall comments? 01:39, August 24, 2013 (UTC)

I'd said we'd go with Vicky's description;after all, didn't Mapleshade have a similar case when she got described as ginger-and-white a lot, but was originally said to be tortie? o3o 01:41, August 24, 2013 (UTC)

Never thought I'd say this, but, why not the switch template with the torties as the alt and the pale ginger/tawny as the main image? That way we'd be doing both what the book says and what Vicky has said. x3 01:44, August 24, 2013 (UTC)

Switch template sounds good to me, although I think the tortie should be the alt. 1:50 Sat Aug 24 2013

Using the switch template or tabber if it is decided is an awesome idea, in my opinion, which I support fully. owo I guess the tortie could be the alt.

Flailfoot ~ Silver Nomination
Comments? 21:56, August 26, 2013 (UTC)

The first line 'Flailfoot is a WindClan elder' seems rather unnecessary. I would remove it if I were you. Also, maybe add another quote if possible. Nice ;D

I don't think his warrior rank should be shown unless there was a decision as to whether or not he qualified for having it listed...

There's no more quotes that show his personality well, and the first line is used in a few other articles as well o3o. However I did remove the warrior rank portion. Anything else? 14:23, August 27, 2013 (UTC)

Jagged Peak ~ Silver nomination
Should I add some more quotes? I've added more to the history from memory; I'll add some more from the book when I get my paws on my kindle. 14:21, August 27, 2013 (UTC)

Some parts of the history are in past tense, and try combining some of the smaller paragraphs into a larger paragraph. Also, I don't think the main quote shows his personality well, as any cat could say that, so could you try to find a better one? o3o 14:25, August 27, 2013 (UTC)

Done. 17:24, August 27, 2013 (UTC)

Expand the history a bit more in the beginning and the middle - he appears a bit more than this 17:41, August 27, 2013 (UTC)

Done it. 16:58, August 28, 2013 (UTC)

Also, add one-three more quotes, as he does speak a lot in this book 23:41, August 30, 2013 (UTC)

I added two. 12:55, September 2, 2013 (UTC)

Maybe add just one more from the middle of the book? o3o 14:31, September 2, 2013 (UTC)

I can't find one that describes his personality, really. 17:28, September 5, 2013 (UTC)

hm, in the second quote, I don't think Jagged Peak was banished, I'm pretty sure he just left the tribe, could you fix that? 21:21, September 8, 2013 (UTC)

Oops, that was my bad. I copied the coding to save time, and I forgot to replace that bit. 21:25, September 8, 2013 (UTC)

Wrenflight ~ Silver Nomination
Comments? 17:00, August 27, 2013 (UTC)

Can the main quote be changed to something that shows more personality description of the character? If there is a better quote, of course.

How's that ? 05:51, August 31, 2013 (UTC)

Her warrior rank is still uncited. Can you find a cite for it?

Got it. 06:00, August 31, 2013 (UTC)

The cite that you added was actually just a cite for her name, it never says that she was a warrior, so please find a different cite, or remove her warrior name altogether. 21:04, August 31, 2013 (UTC)

Removed it. There was no mention of her being a warrior. 23:17, August 31, 2013 (UTC)
