Greyhawk
I notice you have been adding articles to the Category:Greyhawk, while I have been removing them from it. I guess we should discuss our reasoning.

I believe the articles should not be in the general Greyhawk category, as this makes the category bloated. Furthermore, many of the articles you added, don't really deal with the Greyhawk campaign setting, even if they are canonically true in that setting. Adding all these points to greyhawk is redundant, surely. Perhaps we could compromise, atleast with the modules, by creating Category:Greyhawk modules and add modules that are advertised as being for use with the Greyhawk setting to it. The Greyhawk modules category would then be added to the general modules category, so that users interested in general modules can find all modules there, while greyhawk users can find their specific modules there.

I do not (yet) agree with adding all gods mentioned in Greyhawk to the category Greyhawk, as these gods exist in the entire standard cosmology.

-- Ec5618 17:57, 7 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Please see Category:Dungeons & Dragons modules. I have added a subcategory for all Greyhawk modules, Category:Greyhawk modules, including modules that can be used for Greyhawk as well as others. Feel free to create similar subcategories for the other campaign settings, and feel free to add articles to the subcategory. Please do not add modules to the general Category:Greyhawk. -- Ec5618 20:15, 7 January 2006 (UTC)


 * I'd like to express a general note of confidence, you seem tireless.
 * Thanks. :) Robbstrd 21:51, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Have you noticed WikiProject Role-playing games? It was recently created, and still lacks direction, but could use your signature. Preferably as a participant. -- Ec5618 21:43, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Hmmm, looks interesting. It looks like it needs more D&D people. Robbstrd 21:51, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

References in D&D articles
Hi, just wanted to clarify what you meant about me changing references. Was it that you wanted me to use the reference format as described on the project page or the specific order that references should be listed? All I've been using is the standard template to make references. I apologise if ive undone something important. -- Lewis  22:55, 20 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Okay I understand, I've just been reading through your recommendations for references format on the project page and it would appear that they are almost identical to the layouts produced by using the and  templates. I'd advocate switching to using these, since in my mind it is much harder to make mistakes with these and a uniform appearance across all articles in guaranteed. Additionally since it is widely used across wikipedia it would give the RPG articles more credibility perhaps? Since data such as ISBN an be easily included, sources can be found quickly by readers. Theres nothing wrong with your method, just something to consider. Hope you dont mind my suggestion. --  Lewis  23:19, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Greyhawk detail
I just wanted to say thanks for your admirable focus on detail in terms of getting everything for Greyhawk-related articles exactly right. I'ts good for Wikipedia that there are editors as careful as you are to get the details really nailed down (e.g. your fixes over the last day or so to From the Ashes. Thanks!  Fairsing 02:32, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Thank you--both for noticing, & for your own contributions to Greyhawk on Wikipedia. My goal is to make Wikipedia the most comprehensive Greyhawk source on the web.--Robbstrd 22:58, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

Shackled City
Nice touch, adding the blurb about Cauldron's fate to the Shackled City page. I had not thought to do that. -Harmil 18:21, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I thought it better to place the blurb there, as the event was part of the AP.-Robbstrd 22:44, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Yeenoghu
Thanks for the edits on the Yeenoghu article. I'm still learning Wikipedia, and you cleaned up the formatting a lot better than I could have. Appreciate it!
 * NP. Thanks for your contributions.--Robbstrd 23:15, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

30 Greatest Reference
Hey, I noticed you've been changing all of the 30 Greatest D&D Adventures references tags to "Erik Mona, James Jacobs, et al". That effectively removes all of the links I built that point to Dungeon Design Panel, which I think is an interesting little page (although probably more POV than other articles I will post in the future).

Any particular reason you did this? I'm still trying to get the hang of how to contribute to Wikipedia vis a vis dos and don'ts, so if there's something I'm missing, please let me know.

Thanks!

--Erik Mona Iquander 22:14, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Touchy, Touchy! :)
Lots of people would want the Dungeon Design Panel page deleted? I can't imagine why. Is there a finite number of Wiki pages out there?

The panel consisted of some of the most influential D&D designers on the occasion of the game's 30th anniversary. As far as I know, it is the only professional attempt _ever_ to apply critical analysis to the "canon" of D&D adventures, which I should think makes it of interest to the D&D community. Yeah, it's only one article, but I think it's important to know who was on the panel for the messages about the individual adventures' rankings to have the weight they should have.

It is, I suppose, possible that I have crawled up my own ass on this. I allow for that.

Let me put it this way. A year or so after the first edition "Fiend Folio" came out, Dragon published two pretty scathing reviews of it, one by Ed Greenwood, of all people. I suspect, eventually, that some quotes from these articles might appear on the Fiend Folio page, because showing the critical reception to the work is an important bit of context that enhances the Wikipedia entry on that particular book.

Like I say, I am learning more about how to contribute to the encyclopedia by the hour, but I am frankly taken aback by the suggestion that these are not worthwhile additions.

My bruised ego will get over it. :) Iquander 22:56, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Greyhawk Wikiproject
I'm very interested in something like this. I think I'll find it maddening trying to figure out what I can and can't post seeing as how I've written or edited so much stuff, but I can certainly make some suggestions regarding which articles ought to be online and am more than happy to contribute to a discussion about posting conventions, etc.

By the way, I cannot believe there is a wiki stub for the Able Carters Coaching House. Nice call plugging River of Blood into that one. You certainly know your stuff! --Iquander 23:05, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks, comrade! Give me a few days to research how to get started on the Wikiproject--I've got some things to catch up on, plus I've got to prepare to run my AOW game tomorrow.Robbstrd 23:22, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Et Alling
I'm thinking that "tidying up" all of the multi-author entries is a bad idea, and should be stopped. Let me give an example why. The Living Greyhawk Gazetteer was written by me, Sean Reynolds, Gary Holian, and Fred Wiening. I coordinated the project, but I didn't have much to do with wide swaths of the writing. Sean did the gods. Fred did the Baklunish lands, Gary did the Sheldomar Valley, etc. Listing only one author is problematic because it is impossible for readers to know who wrote what. Also, which author do you list? I note that I'm listed as the LGG author ("Erik Mona, et al") in a lot of places. Why? Because I coordinated the project? Because I happened to be listed first? Shouldn't Holain, whose name is lowest in the alphabet, be listed first? I think a better option is simply to list all of the authors. It's not like we're hurting for space, and I think we should err on the side of providing the most information. What do you think? --Iquander 07:57, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, it probably would depend on how many authors we're talking about. In general, I think anyone credited as the author on the cover should be listed (as in the case of the LGG--I'm not sure who's been et alling there, but I assure you it hasn't been me. In fact, Gary is listed first on the cover, not you ).
 * Now, in the case of something like a Monster Compendium, where we'll have a dozen or more authors, I think listing everyone is a bit much, so I'd prefer we stick with either the editor/project head/coordinator/etc (ie, whoever's name is at the top of the credits page) or the lead author's name, et al. Now, as far as how many authors we should list, I would prefer something managable, say 3 or 4, UNLESS there are more credited on the cover. I've noticed in many of the monster entries, the creator of the monster is credited in the text of the article, though their name may not appear in the references section. Thoughts?--Robbstrd 21:14, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Sorry about that
Sorry about editing your user page. It really was poor judgement on my part. Won't happen again. --Polkapunk 18:11, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks.--Robbstrd 14:08, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

Wind Dukes of Aaqa
In Wind Dukes of Aaqa, why the change of section name from "Oriental Adventures" to "The Wind Dukes in Oriental Adventures"? It makes the section name rather bulky compared to the rest of the article, and isn't it assumed that in the "Wind Dukes of Aaqa" article, we're not just randomly discussing Oriental Adventures, but specifically the Wind Dukes? If you feel we need the disambiguation, why not "The Wind Dukes in the Age of Worms" for the previous section or "The Wind Dukes' History" for the first section? -Harmil 13:49, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I did so because in many other D&D creature articles, the section headers are worded like "Subject in campaign setting" (see Drow). I guess I could've left off "the" at the beginning, though. I didn't do the same for Age of Worms because it isn't a campaign setting. I guess it's not really that big of a deal--I was just shooting for some uniformity in all the D&D articles.--Robbstrd 21:11, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

I Am Being Erased
Rob,

Someone has proposed the Erik Mona wikipedia entry for deletion. I think it would be lame for me to comment on the process, but since you have edited that page a fair amount, I thought you might want to check out the discussion at Erik Mona. I don't really care about the narcissistic angle, but "cleaning up" Wikipedia by deleting entries of D&D creators other than Gary Gygax seems to me to limit what we've been trying to accomplish here, and I thought you might have a viewpoint worth adding to the discussion over there.

Eli Tomorast and References
I notice that you duplicated (in a different style, and with slightly different credits) the References section at Eli Tomorast. You also left a comment indicating that this was required in order to alpha-sort the References section. While this is what WP:CITE says, it also points out that the reason for doing this is that, in very long articles, it can be hard to find a specific reference. I don't think that for tiny articles like this one, this really helps anyone, and worse in articles like Mordenkainen's Fantastic Adventure, it can end up placing the least autoritative references first, which certainly doesn't help.

Just some thoughts. I hope this helps. -Harmil 00:43, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I think it's better to have both notes & refs for two reasons: 1) more uniformity; & 2) the possibility that someone will come along and expand the article further, including adding more references that might not be cited in the article, but are relevant nonetheless (particularly for future expansion). As for placing the least authoritative references first, I believe this is countered by having the notes section before references, as well as by having links to those footnotes in the article's text. You'll note that many academic works will have both foot/endnotes & a bibliography, which is essentially what the references section on Wikipedia is. Honestly, it would probably be better if all reference sections were relabeled as "Bibliography", but then thousands of articles would have to be changed.--Robbstrd 01:00, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Hey Rob
Hey Rob, this is Bedford. Nice to know that someone I know in real life is here. I'm using a lot of your information about the Indiana Army Ammunition Plant in the article I wrote for it.--Bedford 15:03, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Gracias, Bed!--Robbstrd 15:26, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Why Does This Not Surprise Me?

re: Sitchin in "Hypothetical planet"
Hello, nice to meet you. Sorry I didn't see that ref saying Sitchin was a scientist. I was too incensed by the very inclusion of his ideas in the article that I didn't bother to read them closely. Anyway. I was wondering if you might give me some backup in my drive to get those "planets" removed. Sitchin already has his own article, and I feel that's where this information belongs, not in an article about astronomy. I hope you agree. Thanks for your help. Serendipodous 16:58, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Randy Richards article
Randy Richards may or not be a controversial figure. There are millions of people in the "game community" worldwide, and to say "most" people find him controversial is absurd. As to the Dreadmire issue, this is already referenced where it belongs, which is under the "Dreadmire" article.

The other source cited, the Coast Con link, is NOT a reliable source. The minutes I obtained during my research, from the meeting in question, sheds light on this subject. Randy Richards resigned when, he claims, he discovered illegal activities going on thin the group. Hardly a controversial act.

Not sure about the Yeomanry message group. Will have to research that one. This is the first I am hearing about this.--Cryogenesis 21:13, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Three-revert rule
 * If you have documentation to refute the DOCUMENTED claims already in your article, Randy, you need to provide your own documentation. You claims to the contrary are hearsay.--Robbstrd 21:06, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I am not Randy Richards, Sally, and I do not appreciate the insinuation. Refer to No personal attacks. --Cryogenesis 21:14, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I believe "Sally" qualifies as a personal attack.--Robbstrd 21:17, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Be that as it may, I have documentation to refute the claims. Who should I mail it to? I have a photocopy of the hand-written minutes TAKEN AT THE MEETING in question. In other words I have the actual source, not the vague summary the online link points to.--Cryogenesis 21:13, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Please put the documentation online. Better yet, add the allegations of illegal activity to your article, or to a CoastCon article!--Robbstrd 21:17, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
 * There are two links that shed light on the issue. You were being let go, you did not quit, even the record bears this, if you had a reason you should have put it on record before you stormed out. The second link shows you on the path. They gave you a chance. . Your posts under the name Janus support all of their claims.Quode 04:35, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Spellbinder Games (USA)
I've added the "prod" template to the article Spellbinder Games (USA), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also What Wikipedia is not and Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:Spellbinder Games (USA). If you remove the dated prod template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Pascal.Tesson 23:17, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Fine by me.--Robbstrd 00:51, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Dreadmire
I have had the Dreadmire page speedy deleted since it was a recreation of deleted content. It's ok for anyone, even a puppett to ask for deletion review. However, it's clear that his case does not stand a chance. Pascal.Tesson 01:17, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Wiki is now under attack for dropping Dreadmire. He and his sockpuppets are all over the place. The one thing Randy knows is the limits for this level of disobedeance are much higher on the web than in real life.Quode 03:56, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Let's drop the subject of Randy Richards
Hi. As you probably have noticed I have also been quite ticked by the behaviour of Cryogenesis and his likely puppets over the last few days. We have all lost our cool about it and this is not productive. I intend to stop contributing to the various debates as I am confident that the rest of the community will handle it perfectly well. I'm writing to ask you do the same, especially because I'm concerned that you are making this too much of a personnal affair especially since it's pretty clear that you know Mr. Richards in real life. As I told, I think it would be wise for you to go back to editing other D&D articles that you seem to care about and leave this mess solve itself. Cheers, Pascal.Tesson 01:59, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Consort Articles
Thanks for acknowledging my work on the consorts. I just added some more info on them and the references you asked for. As i see you are a Greyhawk specialist so if anything seems incorrect to you in these articles please let me know i'm quite new at this...! Mansemat 13:47, 12 December 2006 (GMT+1)

Thanks again for helping me check my spelling on the consort articles. English is not my mother language so sometimes i tend to falter and not to express myself properly. Anyway hope you like my work. Mansemat 01:00, 16 December 2006 (GMT+1)

Hi. I've been doing some additional work lately on the arch-devils of Baator and i added Fierna, Levistus and Bel so i thought you'd like to check it out. I really appreciated your corrective work on the consort articles so if you have so me time to tell me what you think.... Anyway happy 2007 to you. Later. Mansemat 07:06 PM, January, 5th 2007

JarlaxleArtemis
Why are you reverting the edits of user:Left4Vanish? It appears to be the editor formerly known as user:JarlaxleArtemis" trying to remove some personally identifying material. Is there anything wrong with that? -Will Beback · † · 21:08, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
 * It was my understanding that the user pages of banned wikipedians were to be left as is. He's already edited under the usernames "RightToVanish" & "Right2Vanish" & it appears he still hasn't learned to play nice with others: & User talk:RightToVanish.--Robbstrd 21:18, 1 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes, and banned users shouldn't edit any part of Wikipedia. But I think this is a logical exception. I don't see how we gain anything by insisting that this information remain. -Will Beback · † · 00:14, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Someone just registered on ENworld and is not far from Wikipedia at all...

Satyr (Dungeons & Dragons)
Thanks for your efforts to save this article. I don't know if anything we've said will help or not, but I think these deletionists may set a bad precedent if they succeed. I think some of them are looking with greedy eyes at their next targets if they can make this one go bye-bye. BOZ 03:56, 2 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh yeah, belated congrats to you and all who helped - hopefully that will keep the deletionists at bay for a little while at least! BOZ 03:03, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

Devil (Dungeons & Dragons) articles
Hey Rob, just noticed your Rabble of Devilkin article, and edits in other D&D devil articles. Great stuff! The timing is fortuitous, as I've been posting a lot of research that I've done into the topic on ENWorld - I put a link on the Lords of the Nine Hells talk page, but not sure if anyone noticed it. I've got a couple of threads going on where I've posted various notes. If you can find anything in there that you'd like to use for these articles, I've got sources and even page numbers for most of it, so it's easily verifiable. BOZ 03:02, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Boz!--Robbstrd 04:19, 10 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Hey, Rob,
 * Since we're converting the Dukes of Hell over on ENWorld, I figured I'd add a page to wikipedia for each one we finish. We just finished Amduscias today, and started on his buddy Malphas. BOZ 19:32, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

D&D IM
Do you IM? I'm at peregrinefisher@hotmail.com. I say this because you, User:BOZ and I seem to be the main D&D editors. It might be good to coordinate. - 08:24, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Melf the Elf
This guy claiming to be Luke Gygax keeps making weird edits to the Melf article. Even if it really is him, the edits are very poorly written and will need to be rewritten. BOZ 21:57, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Saint Cuthbert
It's hard to tell if your original comment was some attempt at sarcasm or not. I placed the banner on the Cuthbert category because that article is included in the Category:Fictional saints, which includes several people who have been more or less correctly called "saints" who have occurred in literature, like Camber MacRorie (Gwynedd). If you believe that categorization is inapprorpriate, which it might be for a deity, then I clearly would have no objections to having the banner removed, but think that removing the category would very likely be appropriate. You will note that the Kargoth article was not similarly categorized, so I wouldn't have known that that character is also regarded as a saint within that fictional universe. Personally, I can see the banner possibly remaining on the latter article, as that character is seemingly more correctly described as being a "fictional saint", and could perhaps more reasonably appear on a list of fictional saints. However, without such categorization or appearance on any list we maintain, there was no way for me to know that. Considering you seem to know the minutiae of Greyhawk better than I do (which, considering the depth of my knowledge of the subject, isn't really saying that much), I think the matter of handling the questions of banners and categories would probably be best handled by someone like you who knows the subject better. Please let me know what decision you arrive at, so that I can alter our project's watchlist and other such pages according. One very likely outcome will be the eventual creation of a Saint Cuthbert disambiguation page in the likely event there are other Cuthberts in the 15,000 or more saints, beati and so on out there, and it might be a good idea to remind me if you do remove the banner so that I can remember to include that article in that possible dab page. John Carter 22:53, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Sorry if I overreacted. For what it's worth, if you do see any of those pages you mentioned earlier created, add them to the Category:Fictional saints. I try to "update" the project article list every three months or so, and should see that they were newly created then. Also, of course, I really dislike seeing any of our articles unassessed, so adding the banner would be a way of calling our attention to them as well. Sorry again if I overreacted. John Carter 00:57, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Deletionist
Basilisk (Dungeons & Dragons) and Succubus (Dungeons & Dragons) have been targetted. I will update the D&D project page if any more are dealt with in this manner. BOZ 18:40, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Of course, in all fairness to him, a number of seriously immature people started harassing him, which is totally inappropriate. Of course, if he'd been a bit less of a dick to people during the AFD process (and perhaps not started that shit by looking at the history lists of people working on the AFD to edit things they've worked on - witness his comment above for only one example), I'm sure the backlash against him wouldn't have been so severe.  Regardless, I'm glad to be rid of him at least for the moment. Still though, there's something to be said about people on both sides of the argument about being the better man and not sinking to lower levels just to "get" people.  Of course, he was not the first deletionist to target D&D articles and I'm sure he won't be the last. BOZ 15:54, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Rob, is that wiki just for GH stuff, or can I put anything D&D (outside of other campaign worlds, natch) such as the monsters which just survived the AFD for example? Can I just copy and paste from wikipedia, editing for content as needed?  If it's just WoG, i don't mind helping you move that stuff over there but i'd also like a place to put the "generic" D&D stuff. BOZ 23:19, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
 * OK, I'll check out that wiki. It looks kind of empty (which could be a good thing or a bad thing), and maybe I'll cross-post some between the two. BOZ 02:29, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Here's another one; though that one has a lot more going on with it, a lot of it seems to be fan-submitted material. The other D&D wiki you linked me to seems to focus more on official D&D material, albeit mostly 3E stuff.  BOZ 03:47, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

Prod-crazy!
You've got prods from the usual suspect on Diamond Lake (Greyhawk) (isn't prodding an article right after a failed AFD being a sore loser?), Codex of the Infinite Planes‎, Celene (Greyhawk), Cauldron (Shackled City), Llerg‎, Arnd‎, and Alhamazad the Wise‎ (and probably others before long, i'm sure). I usually just redirect an article at that point, because reverting it just gives these guys the impetus to AFD it. do as you wish! BOZ 13:05, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the pointer
Thanks for the pointer, but I'm not sure I have time for a third Wiki in my life. Contrary to the belief of some editors, here, I don't actually focus on Greyhawk material all that much (when it's not being tagged for deletion en mass). That said, feel free to peruse my articles about Greyhawk on my home Wiki and take anything you like. It's all under one of two licenses: Creative Commons Attribution, Share-Alike 2.5 or GFDL (the stuff that has Wikipedia elements is all GFDL and is noted as such, everything else is CC). If those licenses aren't compatible with what you're doing, then let me know here or on my wiki, and I'll be happy to work something out. You might be particularly interested in my expansion of List of Greyhawk deities at Greyhawk cosmology. -Harmil 00:43, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

RE AFD Red Hand of Doom (my 2 cents)
I completely understand where you're coming from, but i fear that this comment will do more harm then good. It can be used to fuel a persecution complex. "it's not that i'm wrong they just hate me." It's up to you, but if it was me, i'd refactor to something a bit more positive on the article.--Cube lurker (talk) 23:34, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Come build something constructive!
Instead of trying to keep things from getting torn down, why not help build something up? Take a look at User:BOZ/List of Dungeons & Dragons monsters, check out the pages it links to, see what's been done already, and see if there's anything you want to add. BOZ (talk) 22:17, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Duchy of Ten
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Duchy of Ten, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Dwellers of the Forbidden City
Hi! :) I have nominated the article Dwellers of the Forbidden City for Good Article status, as I feel it has undergone significant improvement from the point at which it was almost deleted. Since you were involved with improving the article, and/or sparing it from deletion, I'm inviting you to help out in any way you can to improve the article so that it may join its fellow modules, Ravenloft and Dragons of Despair as a Wikipedia Good Article. :) You may want to place the review page (which may not begin immediately) on your watchlist to keep track of the review process. BOZ (talk) 20:57, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Death knights
A tag has been placed on Death knights requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a club, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guidelines for people and for organizations.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Hello
Just wanted to say Hi, after having passed my recent Request for adminship. How's everything going?

I don't know if you've been around in a while, but I'd like to point out to you the success we've had with the D&D GA-drive so far: Gary Gygax, Wizards of the Coast, Dragons of Despair, Drizzt Do'Urden, Forgotten Realms, Tomb of Horrors, Dwellers of the Forbidden City, White Plume Mountain, The Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth, Expedition to the Barrier Peaks, Planescape: Torment, Dragonlance, and Against the Giants, and we plan to hit Dave Arneson and Drow (Dungeons & Dragons) after some work. :)

If you're interested in coming around to check out what we've been up to, you are welcome as always. :) BOZ (talk) 17:45, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I think so - I'd like to think that the dark days are behind us, and that with the success I mention above, that much brighter days are ahead for us! :) I'm hoping that people will come back (hint hint), and that new people will come on, to help us rebuild. :) BOZ (talk) 19:10, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

You are now a Reviewer
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 18:45, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

LOL, whatever do you mean. :)

This does mean good news for the future of the D&D Wikiproject - although he has laid off of us for the past two years or so, I always had the anxiety that he would turn his eyes back towards us at some point!

Any time you want to lend a hand with us it would be appreciated, and if not then just hang out and appreciate what we have built. :) BOZ (talk) 22:44, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

RfC etiquette /process
I removed your comment from Requests for comment/Folken de Fanel. Per the RfC standards, any threaded discussion is to take place on the talk page, the project page is only for the statements/views and endorsements. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom  00:14, 30 May 2013 (UTC)
 * So you moved it to the talk page?--Robbstrd (talk) 00:32, 30 May 2013 (UTC)
 * No, i just removed it. Without context on the talk page it would make no sense. If you want to address conspiracy theories on the talk page, it is best that you set them in an appropriate context. --  TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom  00:40, 30 May 2013 (UTC)
 * So, you removed it because it doesn't meet RfC standards, yet you wouldn't move it to the talk page because it has no context? You could have just moved the accusations to the talk page as well, you know. I guess accusations are fine, when defending oneself is not.--Robbstrd (talk) 01:24, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Here's something you could probably benefit from, junior:
 * You posted in the wrong place. I removed it and told you where the appropriate place to post it would be. You did not make a comment there, instead you call me a dick. Who is the real dick? -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom  00:16, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Monster Mythology


The article Monster Mythology has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "This is essentially nothing but a summary of the contents of a non-notable 'sourcebook'--a directory, really, for Dungeons & Dragons. I can find no independent reviews, no secondary coverage, no nothing, nor is there some sort of inherent notability for a publication like this."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
