Welcome . . .

to our currently-unnamed Greyhawk Wiki. Feel free to post any questions you may have on my talk page.--Robbastard 20:25, 29 August 2007 (EDT)

Deity articles

Thanks for your contributions. However, most Greyhawk deities have already been covered on Wikipedia--it would likely be easier to just copy & paste from those, then expand onto what's already been written. There's also a deity template you can use. Let me know if you have any questions.--Robbastard 20:25, 29 August 2007 (EDT)

Format

Please check the Writing Guidelines & the other articles for formating. Not that I don't appreciate the help, but it saves me time if everyone formats their articles the same way. For instance, instead of "sources," use "Bibliography" (& use "=" rather than bolding), & list the sources using Chicago Manual of Style citations. Several sources are already in this format in other articles, particularly on the work's author page. Thanks.--Robbastard 20:58, 29 August 2007 (EDT)

Wikipedia

Again, much of what you're doing is already on Wikipedia--see Pandemonium. And don't forget to use the edit summary. :)--Robbastard 21:18, 29 August 2007 (EDT)

Realm

I deleted this page, because it's beyond the scope of this wiki. We no more need a "realm" article than we do, say, a "sword" or "horse" article. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to post something on my talk page.--Robbastard 21:25, 29 August 2007 (EDT)

Loviatar

I deleted this page, because Loviater is a FR deity whose activities on Oerth are limited to the Hanging Glacier. I did link her name on that & Telchur's pages to her entry on the FR wiki on Wikia, however. If there is enough demand for her own page on this wiki, however, I have no problem recreating it.--Robbastard 19:24, 5 September 2007 (EDT)

EEP (re: Demogorgon)

Thanks for the fix, Rip. I guess I wasn't paying enough attention whan I was moving articles over and moved the wrong one over :) Pat Payne 18:44, 7 September 2007 (EDT)

Template:Affiliations

Given that affiliations are so heavily entwined in game mechanics (which will certainly be outated with the release of 4E), perhaps a more mechanic-neutral infobox would be better, such as Template:Greyhawk Organization?--Robbastard 23:09, 8 September 2007 (EDT)
