Deephome vs. Deepholm
Why are people reverting the name change to Deepholm? In the most recent updates to the Warcraft lore - as expressed at Blizzcon and as found on the official Cataclysm website, it should be Deepholm, rather than Deephome. Blizzard has apparently retconned the spelling.

- Many Americans are a bit tone deaf when it comes to words they haven't heard *g* - Like with the old scifi show "Babylon 5" - there was a race called Minbari - but a lot of people kept calling them Mimbari. I think the same happened here, someone was told "Deepholme" and the though it was DeepHome. In Ghostlands there is an area called Deatholme that suggests to me that Blizzard likes their 'holmes' (holm being a word in the english langauge). But we shall see in time. --Crash (talk) 20:05, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
- It seems that they sometimes used "Deepholme" (with l and e) [1], sometimes used "Deepholm" (with l but not e) [2] and sometimes used "Deephome" (with e but not l) [3]. Although as Amberrock stated, they now seem to be using "Deepholm" exclusively on the official sites. See his link and this one. [4] Burzolog (talk) 15:50, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
- I say go with that till we can see what flashes across our WoW screens when we walk into it.Warthok Talk Contribs 15:51, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
- I agree. If the current Blizzard usage is Deepholm, that's what we should use. -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 17:43, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
- The that Burzolg gave link for "Deepholme" (with l and e) actually says "Deepholm" (with l but not e), check by yourselves: [5]. So I'm not adding it to the article until I have a source. Benitoperezgaldos (talk) 18:02, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

Deephome Concept Map
This map like Hyjal was simple to make almost everything out in. The main thing I couldn't figure out was the portal in the southeast which almost seems like it says 'Portal to Vashj'ir'. Leviathon (talk) 20:42, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
