The information from the RPG books seems to be, in some cases, contradictory with, or at least separate from, the world as it exists in the game. While I don't object to it being added, perhaps it should always be clearly labelled as to its source, so as to make clear the thing being described doesn't exist in [[World of Warcraft]], as you've already done in many places.--[[User:Aeleas|Aeleas]] 11:11, 11 April 2006 (EDT)

The current policy is treating RPG with care- several contradictions exist there, and it isn't presented reliably (for example, the likelihood that players will actually witness [[Norgannon]] laying AoE damage in the game is almost nil). Novels and game manuals are considered official and canon. In the event of contradiction, the more recent source is canon, with the exception of the "War of the Ancients" trilogy and Furion vs. Malfurion. -- [[User:Ragestorm|Ragestorm, Head Bookkeeper]] 18:51, 11 April 2006 (EDT)

Look, we appreciate your work (A LOT, I mean it), but you're no good to anyone if you have a nervous breakdown. Step back, take a breath, and maybe take a break. Every thing will fall into place. Just give us a few day to process what new information there is, and we'll find a bit of middleground, write some disclaimers- though I admit that these retcons are more than a bit annoying. anyway, just BREATHE. :-) --[[User:Ragestorm|Ragestorm]] 18:03, 10 May 2006 (EDT)

Amen to that, brother. FYI, I added you to the bookkeepers- I can't have you taking on this crises and not be one of us, now, can I? ;-P --[[User:Ragestorm|Ragestorm]] 18:13, 10 May 2006 (EDT)
 
−  
−
:Wow, thanks, and the title is so formal heh, I feel so honored.
 
−  
−
:Anyways I was thinking, may I suggest that in the case where old eredar/sargeras/burning legion story contradicts with the brand new retcons, that we use the concept of "Other Legends", as our way pointing out where a retcon and/or flavor lore exists, as a nice way of saying its a legend but its not necessarily true (as many of those backstories can also be found in places within the game as well).
 
−  
−
:That way we can still refrence the old material for anyone interested in it, but list the truth in the main part of article. I used a similar concept in the [[centaur]] article a few days back.
 
−  
−
:However if the case where doing this would make a topic too large, and showing the alternate legend would clutter the topic, we just have the topoic link to the "retcon" or "flavor lore", or its own topic page, where applicable.
 
−  
−
:This way we have a way of showing how the world of warcraft's story and development has evolved over the years, and throw a nod back to the old stories for anyone interested in that material (they might not be the truth but they certainly have entertainment value). This goes for quests, characters, and lore that was removed from WOW by patches. How do we treat patch lore(lore mentioned only patches, as a way of explaining the changes in the world), btw?
 
−  
−
:Now many things are so minor that it wouldn't be feasible put "other legends" Heading, in every topic but for some of the more larger, retcons/flavor, it might be a good idea. If something that is deemed to be a possible retcon, but is marginal that it could be merged into main topic without contradiction, we can do that(with {{cite}} notation, or warning lables where needed, as you mentioned).

===Broken===
 
−
If a user is only familiar with the terms used in Warcraft III, they would search for Draenei. They would then find the Draenei page and find out what the Broken are. For these people who are only familiar with Warcraft III, there would be no problem finding the Broken units from Warcraft III. The people who are only familiar with WoW would not like having Broken labeled as Draenei. The change in names is a [[retcon]]. Blizzard now intends the Broken to be a separate race. -- [[User:TopDread]] 19:17, 10 May 2006 (EDT)
 
−  
−
:Actually we consider Broken to be a type of Draenei in the Draenei article as well. The Broken didn't mutate to their current stated until after they joined illidan, as per the visuals in Warcraft 3. Infact currently ingame corrupted Draenei are still called a type of draenei, and there are still refrences to these sad mutated beings still being called draenei or corrupted draenei in articles, along with "Broken" faction designation. We do not know if that will be altered. We really don't know how far back this retcon or evolution of history goes actually. I really think as long as there is doubt we go with what was said within the the older game, but explain that an evolution has taken place. Also changing unit or class names adds another danger, do we no longer consider Sylvannas to be "Dark Ranger" cause that class doesn't exist in WoW, and she was given a different class set?[[ Also, I think we should bring this up with the rest of the bookkeepers and see what they think. Ragestorm are watching? Yes I'm may now be the assistant policy writer in the book keepers, but definitely want to bring it up with ragestorm and other bookkeepers first...-[[User:Baggins|Baggins]] 20:12, 10 May 2006 (EDT)
 
−  
−
They are called Draenei at the time, hence they shiould remain Draenei- if anyone protests, we can just say the the name "Broken" is applied to Akama and his ilk by the true Draenei. Also, in terms of lore complication, the "'''Un'''broken" applied to a pinkskin subspecies of Faceless One. Like TopDread says, the Broken are clearly discussed on the Draenei page. As for your thoughts on patches and the "other legends" explaination, I think that's our best course for now. And I meant "Assisant Policy Writer" (There's no official one, so an Assistant is a better title for a "democracy"- there are too many bookkeepers to continue using the original conception of the community teams) poliy ratification rests on teh shoulders of all of us- with veto option from myself and the majordomo. Sylvanas and other lore characters do not have to conform to the WoW class system -- [[User: Ragestorm|Ragestorm, Head Bookkeeper]]
 
−  
−
There name should be Broken even if there are doubts. The new canon information will probably be disseminated across WoW. Blizzard will probably change their name in the next patch. I don't feel it is safe to side with history on their name, because Blizzard has clearly stated the new canon on their website.
 
−  
−
Sylvanus and Aleria could be the only people who have delved into the "Ranger" class. I don't know what Sylvanus' WoW class is, but "ranger" could just be a synonym for different class builds. Ranger could be a talent tree build. There is no need to change Sylvanus' name. On the other hand, Blizzard has retconned the Illidan's Draenei to Broken. This is a different matter entirely.

−  
−
If won't change them back to "Broken" if you change them to "Draenei" again. I feel I changed them to "Broken" in good faith and correct interpretation of the new canon, but apparantly you feel there is ambiguity in the new Blizzard statements. We will see if Blizzard decides to make everything conform to the new name and if they clarify what a Broken is. I feel they state that it is a race, not a faction. --- [[User:TopDread]] 20:36, 10 May 2006 (EDT)
 
−  
−
all we're saying is that we feel that there isn't enough difference between the DNA of Broken and Draenei to constitute that difference. Also, the term "Broken" seems to have come from after their rule by Illidan. --[[User:Ragestorm|Ragestorm]] 20:45, 10 May 2006 (EDT)

:You really don't want to get into genetic arguement not at all, its a crazy field (Anthropology is actually my minor, and touches on the issue). Anycase, a sub-species is technical jargon denotes a species within a species, therefore a variation of the original species(but still within the original species). Yes it is an offshot of the master species but is still beneath that species, rather than becoming a new species altogether. When you get to that level of detail scientists tend to disagree on minor details, and create several hypothesis.
 
−  
−
:One famous example in anthropology that scientists are argueing even today, is status of Neanderthalis. Most scientists agree that Neanderthals are of the Human species too, the species, "Homo Sapiens". But they have two viewpoints on where they sit within Homo Sapiens species. Some think they belong as Homo Sapiens Neanderthalis, and we are a divergent "Homo Sapiens Sapiens" sub-species that evoloved along side the neanderthals. Still other scientists have the view that the order was Homo Neanderthal, and then the Homo Sapiens. Then you have scientists who think that both Neanderthal and Homo Sapiens are one and the same, and what we call Neanderthals can still be found in current human gene pool. Then you have the ones that believe they may be seperate sub-species but could mate and have viable offspring(which merged with humanity so may still exist today). ...or others that believe that Neanderthals and modern Humans would have sterile offspring like the mules, and therefore lead to their disappearance. Most scientists agree that modern humans are the sub-species, "Homo Sapiens Sapiens", of the species Homo Sapiens. Believe me you don't want to say Homo Sapiens Sapiens all the time when its whole lot easier to say Human.
 
−  
−
:Anycase I hope my treatise on the history of scientists and neanderthal man, at least shows that on that level not everyone agrees and have several hypothesis made on the issue.
 
−  
−
:On a related note, simply being mutated doesn't make one an entirely new species. Many people in Hirowshima had their genetics scrambled but it doesn't make them non-human. So back to the terminology "sub-species" being called that doesn't necessarily mean "new species", by most scientific standards it infact means part of the same species with a few changes.
 
−  
−
:Also like Ragestorm said, there is implication that Akama's draenei became known as the Broken after joining Illiden's forces. It doesn't necessarily apply to every Draenei living in outland as seen in Warcraft III, and Akama's faction was at odds with other Draenei there, which were treated as creeps. So yes there is alot of ambigouty in the statements.[[User:Baggins|Baggins]] 21:25, 10 May 2006 (EDT)

===Broken and lost ones are not the same race as Eredar===
 
−
:''These draenei have since mutated into lesser forms, resulting in a series of subspecies. The Broken and the Lost Ones (as seen above) are two such genetic offshoots.'' This quote from the Blizzard website shows that they are a separate race, not a faction. The Broken present in Outland are Akama's faction.
 
−  
−
::Sorry have to disagree here but by scientific definition that all races are part of the same species, a subspecies by definition is still the same species as its master species.
 
−  
−
We are the subspecies Homo Sapiens Sapiens of the human species, by scientific definition. This standard biological and anthropological science terminology.
 
−

==Small advice==
 
−
I noticed that in some of your recent edits you talk about the "recently released [[Alliance Player's Guide]]" (e.g. in [[Keepers of the Grove]] and [[Azeroth]]) or the "new [[Alliance Player's Guide]]" (e.g. in [[Half-elf]]). You know, using phrases like "recently released" or "new" isn't such a good idea because using that phrase automatically means the article will be outdated in a few months as the Alliance Player's Guide won't be "recently released" or "new" then anymore. So it would be better if you just leave out the "recently released" bit or use a more neutral and timeless wording like "the Alliance Player's Guide which was released in June 2006" or something like that. -- [[User:Foogray|Foogray]] 03:18, 10 July 2006 (EDT)

::I love the RP books full of obscure lore, as well as explanations to things that were perceived as errors in earlier sources by some people. It also has information you won't find anywhere else that really enriches the franchise as a whole. You really can't know all there is to know about Warcraft unless you take advantage of all the media out there, novels, games, rpg, mangas, tcg, etc. But like anything out there sometimes occasional discrepencies arise, as the authors/designers, etc are human and mistakes can happen. This happens even in WoW itself, thus why we try to maintain a neutral stance here. But usually the problems are not earth shattering, so we just move on. BTW, I just get the rpg for lore, not really to play. I haven't yet had the courage to sit down and try to get friends to play a game.

== Retcon ==
 
−  
−
I've been going over WoWWiki's use of the term "retcon," and I have to admit, I'm a litle disturbed. A fair chunk of what says "it was retconned to" shoud actually be "it was later revealed." For example, the Draenei being descended from eredar is a revelation, not a retcon, but the eredar being corrupted ''is''. In terms of timelines, of course, it's all retcons, but a lot of lore that's mentioned as recon is actually revelation. --[[User:Ragestorm|Ragestorm]] 14:18, 2 December 2006 (EST)
 
−  
−
::Ya I'm in totally agreement that making the assumption that something is automatically a "retcon" just because later stuff revealed new information is drastic to the extreme. I am always bumping heads with Aeleas and getting into arguements on the interpretation of what definition of "retcon" is. I've had to try to compromise at times, and keep things as neutral as possible. Infact, I shouldn't even have to make refrences to the term flavor lore all the time if the the term "retcon" wasn't thrown around so much.[[User:Baggins|Baggins]] 14:23, 2 December 2006 (EST)
 
−  
−
:::As defined in the article, as well as in popular usage, a retcon doesn't solely refer to ''inconsistent'' changes to the lore. It also includes additional backstory which recasts existing elements. I don't think anyone would suggest that the initial conception of the draenei involved their current origin. Grafting on a new backstory to fill in blanks is a retcon under the normal usage of the term. Of course, as the [[Retcon]] article states, practically the entire Warcraft universe falls under that definition.
 
−
:::The broad definition of retcon therefore isn't much use to us, and the article states in the intro that it will focus on the second definition, retcons where old lore is invalidated. It doesn't currently do this, and I would support removing at least the sections on Azerothian blood elves and the history of the draenei (with the exception of the corruption of Sargeras), as they don't involve any clear conflicts.
 
−
:::That being said, however, I do stand by my position that when things are changed in the lore (and they often are), it is very confusing for readers to try to express and reconcile everything in in-game terminology. For example, the change in religion between the theistic, Christian-esque clerics of Warcraft I, and the nontheistic followers of the Light in Warcraft II. That's a pretty clear break, and while it's interesting speculation to try and reconcile those radically different accounts, I don't think it's very encyclopedic to do so in a main article. Rather, it's much clearer and more reliable to just present the two conflicting accounts, and have a separate article for an essay promoting possible reconciliations.--[[User:Aeleas|Aeleas]] 16:23, 2 December 2006 (EST)

−
::I agree as well. If I'm reading you right, basically we don't discuss stuff in that article if it is not truly a "retcon" in that thread (if it is instead a "revelation")? Only discuss things that are verified to have been completely removed (as opposed to becoming flavor) from lore?
 
−  
−
:Yes, I think that's what I'm saying. If it's a revelation, or could be interpreted easily as flavor lore, than we need not mention retcons at all. Speaking of which, how should we interpret the Warcraft Encyclopedia?--[[User:Ragestorm|Ragestorm]] 17:11, 2 December 2006 (EST)
 
−  
−
::I'm not quite sure actually there are elements mentioned in it that seem to be flavor (as it seems to mention a few alternate cultural views), and some stuff that seems to be written as matter of fact. It may very well be semi in-universe document, but I'm not sure. There is definitely some lose interpretations where it uses slightly different wording or interpretations than stuff published in other recently released formats.

Your edit war with [[User:Theron the Just]] has not gone unnoticed. As Head Bookkeeper and AMA member, I must remind you that this will not be tolerated. Having reviewed the summaries of the "edits," it appears that this issue is something to be resolved on the talk page, ''NOT'' by mercilessly adding and removing. If you continue to be party to this edit war, you will be reported as a vandal. Since you clearly have passionate views on the issue, I encourage you to talk it out with Baggins on Usertalk or Pagetalk. I will mediate if needed. --[[User:Ragestorm|Ragestorm]] 20:32, 6 December 2006 (EST)

I'm sorry, I agree it should be discussed through User:talk. I won't to add to any edit war. Theron I meant no offense when I was trying to warn you about certain actions which could be viewed as vandalism by others. I suppose by warning you I could have written it in such a way that you could assumed I was automatically considering you a vandal. This was not my intent, I was merely trying to warn you to not to repeat the same action. By doing that I only escalated an edit war for which we are both at fault, it seems, for that I'm sorry.

I am sorry, but I cannot agree with the statements about rulers of Stromgarde, Gilneas, Alterac and Kul Tiras being kings. Having personally read these "guides" to the story of Warcraft I can tell that they contain many errors. Those books are the only source where the rulers of Stromgarde, Gilneas, Alterac and Kul Tiras are called "kings". In sources ranging from Warcraft II to World of Warcraft the rulers go with the titles of Lord and Lord Admiral (no title has been given to Greymane). If you want I can try listing some of the errors the "experts" of the story made when writing the books. --[[User:Theron the Just|Theron the Just]] 21:26, 8 December 2006 (EST)

In order to remain NPOV we don't automatically assume something is an error. If something is stated in an official source, we quote it, and leave the refrence to the page number. That being said, many real life people hold more than one title, so being a king and a lord is not a contradiction by real life standards.[[User:Baggins|Baggins]] 21:29, 8 December 2006 (EST)

Yes, I agree, the ranger elf was definitely not a ruler. I think all sources agree with you on that. The only thing the sources are specific on, is it was the leaders of the seven human nations were there. While the non-human nations were merley represented by "delegates", and "representives" depending on the source.
 
−  
−
As for it being Alleria? Was alleria mentioned pre-Beyond the Dark Portal? Unless they had ideas for Alleria that early, it could just be based off the generic "Elven Ranger" artwork that is scattered in the game and in the manual. Of course it could have been retconned to be Alleria, and I like the idea.

:Ya definitely not Anastarian. The only problem is that every Elven Ranger had tattoos in the game, including the random artwork, granted most were males, :P. But since she is the only high elf female up to that point of any mention, I suppose its safe to assume it could be her.

:Plus do we really need to say "another representive" for the representives of the human nations in those sections?

== NPC Classes ==
 
−
I've noticed you're going through various NPC's articles and adding classes to their profiles. While I approve of most of these changes, I'm a little confused by the necesity to specify certain characters as both an [[Archmage]] and a [[wizard]]. Isn't an Archmage just a more specific type of wizard, thus implying that the character is a wizard?
 
−  
−
From my understanding, [[Mage]] is a general term for anyone who uses traditional magic. More specifically, a character can also be classified as a [[Sorcerer]] or [[Wizard]], the difference being that a Wizard is officially trained by some authority while a Sorcerer is not. Both of these classes are still Mages, just more specific cases. Similarly, an Archmage is still a Wizard, and thus a Mage, but since this is implied, a character's profile shouldn't say "Class: Archmage, Wizard, Mage", as it just creates clutter and confusion.

::I'm only quoting classes specified for characters in the "RPG", rather than attempting to speculate what classes they are(as some contributors have in the past).

:::Ah, that's a big help, thanks. I suppose the question boils down to, should "archmage" be considered a class, or a title for someone who has reached a certain level of mastery in arcane magic. By Warcraft III definitions, it's a class, but by WoW and RPG definitions, it looks more like a title. I'm still confused as to the difference between mages and wizards, however. In my experiance, Blizzard uses the two interchangibly. --[[User:Mikaka|Mikaka]] 18:26, 9 December 2006 (EST)

:While I appreciate the distinctions, I'm beginning to get annoyed with these RPG classes, specifically the ones that are almost cut-and-paste from D&D (Barbarian and Fighter). I'm not going to call you out on wizards or sorcerers (Jaina is confirmed as a Wizard in Cycle of Hatred), but I want you to excercise some restraint- for example, I had to wrack my brains for proof that Lothar was a Scout, and I still think Alleria doesn't quite fit Barbarian.

:::I never made the rpg, or card game templates. I made the ones for novels, Manga, warcraft I-III. I made those templates because there were people who "doubted" something from each of those sources, and then wanted a citation of the source, and what source it came from. Most people doubted the "lore" that was written for the multiplayer maps for example, another one I found people "doubt" is the lore for the various warcraft III hero resurrection temples. They put up the "fact" check template, or the the one the accuracy template, which in my opinin are much worse than a source template. These "source" templates were to directly point out which source something primarily came from. They were designed to work in conjunction with the standard ((Cite|source|page)) template. If you would like to make one for standard WOW, or have me make it I could do that, that is not a problem.

:::But you'll see that I've made sure each of the templates are written for a more neutral stance. That is previously they said, "Not found in other sources of lore".

In which case the primary source is the most common knowledge for that information, thus the template. Alternatively we could reword the templates to make them further neutral, to instead say something like, "this articles contains lore that originated primarily from "particular source".

There seem to be alot of articles being created based on the a variety of WC3 maps of dubious heritage being stamped with {{t|Warcraft III}} which in turn stamps them with the [[:Category:Lore]]. Are these maps really part of Warcraft lore or more like fan fiction that Blizzard recommends for use in tournament play? I think we're being a bit too liberal when calling this stuff [[lore]]. Perhaps a {{t|Warcraft III Map}} template should be used that excludes the lore category until we can show the proper lore source?

My point exactly. I actually had to train myself to preview during my experimentation with infoboxes. Now, it's second nature. --[[User:Ragestorm|Ragestorm]] 17:08, 22 December 2006 (EST)

Ya, I'm trying to train myself to read the entire article before I edit one section of it... I still have to catch myself from capitolizing race names as well, as well as remembernig to hit the tilde 4 times to sign posts :p...[[User:Baggins|Baggins]] 17:10, 22 December 2006 (EST)

I'll wait to observe user reaction for the new pagenames, but you are '''''NOT''''' to start editing articles so that it says Sayaad instead of succubi or Anihilan instead of Pit Lord. Just in case you were thinking of it. Other than that, it's quite nice to now the proper names, and that succubi are not Nathrezim or eredar. happy holidays.--[[User:Ragestorm|Ragestorm]] 12:32, 22 December 2006 (EST)

Eh, succubi are succubi, I think the class name is more important than the race name in most articles. Otherwise it could get really confusing.[[User:Baggins|Baggins]] 12:35, 22 December 2006 (EST)

::What this just means is that we can use Sayaad and anihilan in the same way we use kaldorei for Night Elves. --[[User:Ragestorm|Ragestorm]] 12:37, 22 December 2006 (EST)

Well I think the difference is kaldorei is an alternate race name, whereas "Saccubus" is a class or Faction name. Saccubus are special class of Sayaad that hold a special function in Burning Legion.[[User:Baggins|Baggins]] 12:40, 22 December 2006 (EST)

I'm pretty sure we don't know yet, LOL. All I know those emitters are pretty specific to first refrence a class, then they are specifically mention the race, "Race: Blah Blah".[[User:Baggins|Baggins]] 12:44, 22 December 2006 (EST)

: I would say it's important to keep everything in relation to 'popular' view - i.e. what's most relevant to WoW. If we start making it complicated by frequently referring to 'alternative names' (or whatever) for races that almost no-one knows, it's gonna get messy =) Btw, I've finished reading most of the novels now, yay! -- [[User:Kirkburn|<span style="border-bottom:1px dotted; cursor:help;" title="Kirkburn is a WoWWiki Admin">Kirkburn</span>]] <small>([[User talk:Kirkburn|talk]])</small> 12:58, 22 December 2006 (EST)
