[edit] Big edition coming

As with Goldmoon, I will be doing a major edit here. So, if you suddenly find a lot of information put together, missing stuff or broken wikilinks, don't worry, it was my fault :-) -- ReyBrujo 03:07, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Ended the lead and the Chronicles section. Will work with the other parts later. -- ReyBrujo 09:36, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
Finished for now with the hauling. Once I receive the Annotated books and some sourcebooks I may expand some more about Riverwind. I will be doing minor corrections and fixes, as most is already covered. In any case, it is now a better article than the previous week's one. -- ReyBrujo 21:58, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
ou are right, he is a lizard man, probably Thouriss
I think that it was a unique serpent-man created from the metall. Llull 16:47, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] References

ReyBrujo - Regarding some of the links in this article that refer to characters not actually listed on List of Dragonlance characters; I'm kind of new at editing and would appreciate some input-might it be best to note this issue in that article's talk page, or will these links be weeded out entirely from this article? Specifically, Riverwind's children don't have actual references in Wikipedia that I can find. --Ipso-De-Facto 09:40, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi there, if you are feeling bold, go to the list and add their names in the Heroes section, along with some information if possible. That way, the next time someone clicks on the links they will be referred to the correct section in the list. Otherwise, someone else can do that. But it is always better to just try, any error you may make can easily be corrected by any of the editors working with Dragonlance articles. -- ReyBrujo 16:31, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] GAC

I judged this article on 7 criteria:

  1. Well-written: Neutral
  2. Factually accurate: Pass
  3. Broad: Pass
  4. Neutrally written: Pass
  5. Stable: Pass
  6. Well-referenced: Pass
  7. Images: Pass

Congratulations, it passes! The prose could be better, but it's certainly not bad, and I feel that that and references are the biggest differences between GAC and FAC anyway. Thank you for writing another good fantasy article! --PresN 16:14, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks to those who helped and PresN for the review. Good prose is always hard to achieve, as it is not my native language, but thanks to many users who clean it up it becomes average. Thanks again! -- ReyBrujo 17:45, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Good article reassessment

Since this article has no reliable secondary sources to demonstrate notability, I have requested a review of its Good Article status at Wikipedia:Good article reassessment/Riverwind/1.--Gavin Collins (talk) 13:44, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

The discussion has been closed and the article delisted. Note that this is only an assertion that the article does not meet the good article criteria, not an assertion that the article is not notable or verifiable. Geometry guy 17:46, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Notability is disputed

At the time of writing, no reliable secondary sources providing evidence of notability for the fictional character Riverwind are cited in this article. The article has many primary references (citations from the author & publishers), but none that are reliable seconary sources. I request that the notability template be restored to this article.--Gavin Collins (talk) 10:22, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
