I see you're still adding icons with the {{t|NPC}} template using the old way. An easier way has been fitted for it. Instead of using the parameter smallicon= and the long file's name, you can simply use the icon= parameter and just the creature you want (with gender if needed).

:Thanks for pointing that out :) Was one of my first forays into editing that type of thing - thanks for posting the link to the example, too!

Question about Ashenvale update.

I was wondering where did you get your new info for Ashenvale and whats your source. Im working on a major article and confirming your source and info would allow me to update the article I'm working on. And also hi. Random aren't I? Rimor Conscientia (talk) 20:17, July 7, 2010 (UTC)

My source is myself :P I've gone on my flying mount throughout all the zones I've edited and jotted down every change I came across while playing the Beta. I suppose I could link the sticky I've got in the Cataclysm forums of the regular Warcraft forums, if that would help at all. Frejya (talk) 20:39, July 7, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you. That would be helpful. Rimor Conscientia (talk) 20:45, July 7, 2010 (UTC)

Consider it done :) Thanks for pointing it out, as I need to do this with the other zones I've posted on! Frejya (talk) 20:49, July 7, 2010 (UTC)

Image(Cataclym)

You don't have to put (Cataclym) after every image name, I mean doing it for places like Fray Island is one thing, but doing for something new like the Hornblower is weird because it implies that there is a Hornblower image from either the original wow, the burning crusade, or even from wrath of the lich king. --Sairez (talk) 05:20, August 3, 2010 (UTC)

That's just how I'm saving them on my computer. There's no harm in doing it, as the reader doesn't see the actual file name unless they click on the picture - plus, it's just as much of an inference to say that the (Cataclysm) denotes something that was added and/or changed during the Cataclysm.User:FrejyaFrejya 05:21, August 3, 2010 (UTC)
Thats true I was just worried that someone would check the file name and end up assuming that something new existed before the Cataclysm and then panic when they couldn't find the original file. So in a way I just want to make sure no one gets a headache or feel stupid, because lets face if you were searching for something that didn't exists you would feel quite foolish, am I correct? --Sairez (talk) 05:33, August 3, 2010 (UTC)
Each picture is associated with a page or section that is distinctly tied to the Cataclysm. Each picture makes a point in the caption to point out it is from the Cataclysm, and those pictures that do not are usually clumped into the Cataclysm section as either a gallery or File.User:FrejyaFrejya 05:38, August 3, 2010 (UTC)
You expect everyone to realize that? Their are those out there who may just focus on what the article says and not focus on Cataclysm on the zone template or they may just skim through the articles and not pay attention to separate sections. To be honest I don't want to get into an argument so why don't we call just this a faith thing. You have more faith people in other people than I do. Though in my defense I have met some rather interesting and foolish people. Well I hope you have a good day and night, Frejya. --Sairez (talk) 05:53, August 3, 2010 (UTC)
Feel free to take it up with an admin if you feel so strongly about it.User:FrejyaFrejya 05:54, August 3, 2010 (UTC)

I've been following this conversation... I personally don't mind either way. Frejya names the images better than most with or without the (Cataclysm). SnakeSssssssssssssssssssssssss Coobra sig3For Pony! (Sssss/Slithered) 06:02, August 3, 2010 (UTC)

First I had to learn how to upload them - what a treat that was :P Thanks, Coobra :) User:FrejyaFrejya 06:08, August 3, 2010 (UTC)
To be honest I don't care which way the images are established. Frejya made good points on how someone would know that an image is new even with the (Cataclysm) behind the image name. I just didn't want to deal ignorant people who would ignore the facts and just focus on the name of an image article. Luckily I never met someone like that before, though I've heard of people like that. So Frejya we cool? --Sairez (talk) 06:19, August 3, 2010 (UTC)
Cool as cucumbers. No worries. User:FrejyaFrejya 06:22, August 3, 2010 (UTC)
Thats cool. --Sairez (talk) 06:32, August 3, 2010 (UTC)
