Talk:Small pet

From WoWWiki

Jump to: navigation, search

I moved this to it's proper name, Minipets - also removed the thotbott links - wiki principle, internalized ETC - internalizing of links might just be my first community collaboration *CHEER!* (-:

What you call collaboration is unilateralism in some ways. Also, I'm sure how you came by "Minipet" as the –proper– term for these pets. In the BlizzCon swag page they called them "in-game pets".

I'm probably gonna reword this page and move it to Small Pet, since the term Minipet seems to have come from nowhere in particular. Blizzard calls them "Small Pets" on there official site, so I figure they're the authority. --Fandyllic 4:45 PM PST 1 Mar 2006

The model viewer has some models of a tiny zepplin, steam tank, and other such things. Are these vanity pets or something else? --Iavas 16:07, 18 March 2006

I cannot speak for the zipplin (model name of the tiny zeppelin), but the miniature steam tonk is an engineer-made item that can battle with other steam tonks with players who have them in duels only. Which means you can only whip one out during a duel, so I wouldn't call it a small pet. They are also available to play with at the Darkmoon Faire, but once again do not follow you around as a small pet would. I'm not sure what other such things you speak of. There are a multitude of small and baby animals in WoW, but many of them are not available as non-combat pets... such as bear cubs and skunks. Lilyth 06:31, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

People are definitely being confused by this page. I'm getting hits from the google archive of the old URL. I would personally change it back, this change seems arbitrary and anal.

Magical Crawdad

The information about Magical Crawdad pets seem to be moving out of the the realm of "unsubstantiated rumor", so I've updated the page with info from the best page I've been able to find on them yet [1]. Hopefully it isn't just a hoax.  :-) // DarkRyder / Talk / Contrib // 14:31, 7 February 2007 (EST)


Correct naming

In patch 2.2 all these pets are now being called "companions", maybe that would be a better page name? Oahkoah 10:57, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

There is another fitting name for them, said in the article itself. "They are purely for show, providing no bonuses." so show pet could be better too. This small pet is quite unfitting. I would like to see a vote for companion or show pet. Both are more accurate than small pet. BlackSmith 15:08, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Indenting

I tried to fix the lack of indenting and bullet on the Alliance pets line for the Great Horned Owl. I could not find anything wrong and was unable to fix it.
