I mostly make grammatical corrections because I'm OCD when it comes to correct use of the English language, but I'll fill knowledge gaps if I find them.

Hiya! When tagging pages for deletion, please don't blank them; just throw the delete tag in at the top (saves the deleting sysop time checking the history). Thanks for catching it! -Auron 07:43, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

Yep, sorry, I misread the P&P page Notso (talk) 07:45, 16 September 2013 (UTC)
Hijack ^^ If sections are a month or more old and back 3 or more sections, it's better to start a new section to start fresh conversation. Otherwise the posts just get drowned out and no one will notice unless they see it in the RC or scroll through the page.--Relyk ~ talk < 09:48, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

Noxin Dells[edit]

I really hope you haven't rage quit the wiki, we need more folks doing area pages! Sometimes us older editors forget how hard it is to remember, notice everything, I've been doing this almost a year and I still make lots of mistakes.

I wanted to talk about Noxin Dells. I have no problem with others editing pages I work on, but I think we may have had different ideas as how to do things, so I wish to explain my reasoning in what I did.

Foes

I had some discussion about this on the Guild Wars 2 Wiki talk:Location formatting page, so I tend to put them using the format I listed there. So about moa's which I had classed as animals. I don't link Moa's to the Moa page because I don't think they count towards any slayer title. Also I think all moa's are animals meaning they are not agressive and show up in yellow type until you attack them.

Wolves are yet another can of worms, again I don't think they count towards any slayer title, but they are not animals. That is why I had them as "unspecified". I do agree they are canines, but sadly the Canine link talks mostly about the ranger pets so maybe we would need to make a new page for them? (There are others like this, felines come to mind).

In any case they should be in alphabetical order in the section.

Objects

More discussion Here but the main point is that environmental weapons is a hotly debated topic, some folks prefer bundles so I think we were using the section ;[[Environmental weapon]]s so at a later date if we decide to change it can be done easily buy a bot account. {If you check my edits you will see on some pages I don't even separate objects at all.}

With that all said, I hope you notice that I DID NOT change your edits since this is all a matter of opinion. I prefer just mentioning things to fellow users, you may have a better idea for how to do things and hearing your reasoning may help me to see things from a different perspective.

A great resource for doing area pages is User:Claret's userpage. She has the most helpful links there. My link page has some plus a copy and paste I use a lot while editing. Any questions, don't hesitate to ask me. Yoe Dude (talk) 09:12, 7 October 2013 (UTC)

I've stopped playing GW2 for a while as I'm finishing a playthrough of a mod I downloaded for Torcglight II - as soon as I finish I'll be back to editing. Once I start again I do what you're doing with categorization of foes, etc. Notso (talk) 11:51, 7 October 2013 (UTC)
