[edit] Dahaka

Whoa, dude, when you're dropping a note on someone's Talk, try to put it in a new header or at least leave it at the bottom of the page. It took me ten minutes to find your comment. Also, sign your comments with four tildes, like so: ~~~~.

As to your comment, I was working on a mass page for all the PoP characters. Unfortunately I was interrupted before I got finished, and I'm only just getting back on now. Don't worry, the Dahaka's information is still intact, and it will be up shortly. PMC 22:46, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

Wikipedia normally runs by having a central list of characters giving descriptions of all the characters, rather than having a stub for every article. However it may be acceptable to make an article on the very most notable character. Also, have redirects from the less notables to the list. Redwolf24 (talk) 00:38, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
  • To expand Redwolf's point: Among other things, a central list makes the articles less likely to get AFD'd as non-notable stubs, (which occurs frequently) makes cross-referencing between characters easier (in the case that someone wants to compare character information), and helps with organization. Having redirects from the character articles and then including the information in a larger list is much preferable to a scattering of stubs. One can still utilize the character name articles to make redirects to the list page. The template, slightly modified, can still be used on the list page - in fact, that's quite a good idea. As all the information on the mini-articles is included on that larger List article, I'm redirecting them to the larger for now. PMC 01:09, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
    • Hmm, I like the way you think. It looks good to me now, especially the enemies page. I'll have a look-over for grammar and such, but aside from that, it looks pretty damn cool. I think I might merge the item articles into a single "list of items" page, is that okay? As for the mini-pages, you don't need to delete them. We can turn them into redirects by replacing the text on the page with #REDIRECT [[wherever you're redirecting to]]. Also, I think the locations, if and when created, should probably be put into a single article. PMC 22:09, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Tomb Raider evolution picture

Hey is it ok if I use the image you uploaded and use it to give a different image to the Tomb Raider L Lara Croft? Cheers!

[edit] Multiple image copyright problems

Thanks for uploading Image:Art-sorceress.jpg, Image:Art-paladin.jpg, Image:Art-necromancer.jpg, Image:Art-barbarian.jpg and Image:Art-amazon.jpg. However, the images may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy)

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image pages like this: {{TemplateName}}. If you have not already done so, please also include the source of the images. In many cases this will be the website where you found it.

Please specify the copyright information and source on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.Drat (Talk) 13:41, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
