In progress
I'm working on removing all of the garbage about aggro control from this page and rewording everything. For those who don't know, before you edit: Crowd Control involves reducing or removing an opponent's ability to do combat freely. Aggro control has nothing to do with Crowd Control. --Burnsauce 14:55, 11 May 2006 (EDT)
User:Tsijun 21 Sept 2006. I've editted the hunter section and tightened up based on definition of CC. Hopefully this meets with approval. Positive feedback welcomed over abject negativity.

Vandalism
Some vandalism was done to this page due to a heated debate on the WoW forums, one person decided that rather than present a decent argument they would alter the evidence that this page had presented. Ive restored it back to its orriginal form and added a link to the topic where a blizzard poster clarifies on what is considered CC. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Calliope (talk · contr).
cc vs mob/aggro control aka tanking
- A lot of text in this article discusses tanking and tanking abilities as crowd control. Should there just be a note up top that says tanking is similar to crowd control in that those mobs choose not to attack party members but for that discussion see the tank topic?
- Also, lots of things were 'just like polymorph' which I changed to similar to polymorph except... Polymorph is one of the best heals (up to 100% health in <10 seconds) in the game that mobs can get and so these other things aren't really like it very much at all.
- This note is just to solicit some thoughts from the group. Ill see if anything shows up Re this note and then try to tackle some of these issues. --Dga 21:05, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
Shaman abilities
Isn't Stoneclaw Totem a form of Crowd Control? - Chickamauga, 14 NOV 07
Paladin CC?
This article catagorizes blessing of salvation and righteous furry as "indirect crowd control". CC, to me, is getting rid of the mob, preventing it from causing harm to the party. These abilities do no such a thing, and only helps to direct who the mob is attacking. I propose that these abilities be removed from the article as they are not really forms of crowd control. Thoughts? Dantheman102100 22:44, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
Removed abilities that are unrelated to cc
As someone had pointed out, the article was full of non-CC abilities. This is a page talking about CC, so no need to have so many unrelated abilities put down here. They are all covered in the respective instance strategy guides. I removed all those non-CC abilities, so it should look better now. WakemanCK 14:43, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
Bash Change
Changed the information on Bash from "Feral Druids" to "Druids in Bear Form"; Bash is available to all Druids when in Bear Form, and it is not exclusive to Feral Druids. Felindre
