[edit] A Small Note
I would like to ask that when anyone is editing the pages, please only put things in that are confirmed facts. As in Cherith of Kate have said them, directly. It is very vague to say "So and so becomes such and such/dies/has kits". This is especially true for the Twilight and Sunset sections. If you do not provide a source, I will assume it's faulty and may take the liberty of removing it.
I agree with the deletion of links, there are plenty of other sites to post those on. --Dusk 20:35, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
- I would like to comment on an example of what Duskstripe is saying. A few weeks ago in August 2006, someone had added to the Twilight section about who had died, and other very big spoilers. Although I knew it to be true, it should be removed from the article because it does not fit with the layout of the other books. Thank you for your time. Sunset7611
I agree with the fact of putting down information that isn't confirmed and has no source. An example of this would be the "Former Known Clan Members" of ThunderClan and RiverClan. I would really like to know who put that information down. Most of that cannot be confirmed by a source, so no matter how sure that information is, there's no way to prove it. I'm not saying it's COMPLETELY untrue, I mean, I agree that Wolfpelt might have been the medicine cat before Spottedleaf, but there's just no way to prove it. Someone prove me wrong, because I really would like to know where this information came from! Spottedstar 11:18, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- Er. Yeah. Cats like that that have never appeared anywhere in the books or from the authors, those we're not about to count. TakaraLioness 19:41, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- Okay, that's what I thought. Someone was putting all that false information down and saying that they "knew" that stuff, and yet they had no source to it. So yeah, I was just making sure. Thanks! :) Spottedstar 16:14, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] What Happened to the Character List?
What happened to the character list? I thought that was a major part, and should stay.
--Moonshimmer 04:04, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
- The character list is now on it's own page.
- Kitsufox 20:29, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
WOW you guys have done an EXCELLENT job on the warriors page, it is super easy to read! =]
[edit] What happened to all of the other things, too?
There used to be a character page, and a list of herbs, too! Where did it go? I agree with Moonshimmer, and all of that stuff should stay. If it makes the article too long, there should be another article on it. Also, there isn't really much description on each book; it's just the blurb at the back of the book.
--SapphireSprite 15:47, 1 August 2006

- All of these things are now on their own page. *Ruby

- JSYK, Moonshimmer, and SapphireSprite, if you're wandering around Wikipedia looking for the page its called Clan (Warriors). it has the info that disappeared off this page. Zukogirl6 13:00, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Not to be overly forward but...
Hello. I am an avid fan of Warriors, and find this page in sorry, sorry condition. Can I please have a list of the major contributors to Warriors novels so that we might begin collaboration for this page? First off, the clean-up and formal tone tags must be addressed. The book descriptions are basically ripped from the book's inside covers, and must be reworded. Also, if someone might upload images of the covers, that would be excellent. Thank you. DoomsDay349 23:50, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for adressing that problem. I edit this page a lot, so you can add me to the list.
Thanks --Res2216firestar 20:34, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
I suppose you could add me also. I edit this page often as well, and I do agree that the article could be much better. The article is extremely better than that horrendous state it was in after we "started anew" with it, but it does need improving. I just can't think of how to clean it up properly, etc, etc. Wikipedia's rather vague sometimes...
Oh, and somehow, this, along with a few other sections, were deleted... I restored this one. TakaraLioness 19:52, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
-
-
- You're right. I'll try to work on it also, but I can't really make promises. I'm rather busy...

- OK, I have finished Twilight and plan to begin work. Firstly, we have to resolve the formal tone issue. The problem with that is the fact that this page has book summaries that sound like they were ripped from the jacket or a fan-site. As for clean-up, we'll want to consider splitting this page and adding more here. What we need is a History and Influence section (which we can hopefully dig up from chats, etc.) a short main storyline, a section on the movie rumor, and links to the other Warriors-related Wikipedia articles. Then, external links. The ones we have there are alright now. As for clan organization and terms, I suggest an article on Clan (Warriors), which would include those and summaries of the four clans. We may also have enough material for a ThunderClan article, but not the other three Clans. The article on Warriors characters is decent, but could be better. The articles on Firestar and Graytstripe need expansion. The list of NP chars is same as the other list. What we need are aritcles on the other major cats; Bluestar, Tigerstar, Tallstar, Brambleclaw, Cinderpelt, Leafpool, Squirrelflight, Stormfur, Feathertail (Warriors), Crowfeather, Hawkfrost, Mudclaw, Sandstorm (Warriors), Dustpelt, and possibly others. Like I said, a ThunderClan article would also be useful, where we could include a list of cats not important enough for a whole article, such as Rainwhisker, for instance. Now then, the list of novels here should be moved to List of Warriors novels, made to meet formal tone, set in cite book format, and given a short summary. That sums my plans for now. DoomsDay349 01:13, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
- For character pages, maybe we should decide on a standard format, or see about an Infobox or something like that... That way we could create some consistancy between the various parts of the greater artical...

In addition, I think I will start a Category:Warriors, although we can't call it that because there almost certainly is one...perhaps Category:Warriors (books series)? Dunno. DoomsDay349 01:15, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
- OK, I've done some work. Firstly, the new Category:Warriors (novel series) has been created. It only has four articles as of yet but hopefully this will be expanded as we add articles on novels and characters. Secondly, the two lists of Warriors characters and Warriors: The New Prophecy characters have been merged and moved to List of Warriors characters. Graystripe (book series) has been moved to Graystripe. There's not much more I can do until I check out the Warriors book from the library, aside from re-write the section on Twilight, as I've still got it. Then, I plan to rewrite Midnight, Moonrise, and Starlight which I own. I'll do the rest when I get them out of the library. DoomsDay349 22:52, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Erin Hunter
Who is under the pen name Erin Hunter? Sr13 18:26, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
- Please note that this talk page is not for discussion of the general topic. There is likely a forum to ask this question. However, to answer, I believe it is Kate Cary and Cherith Baldry, both under the pen name so that the library cataloging system will have an easier time of it. Please take further questions elsewhere. DoomsDay349 18:51, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Another article?
I was the one that had put in the problem with Sorreltail's apprenticeship a few days ago since it doesn't need to be in the Book Series article how about one called Warriors Inconsistencies or something. That problem could go there as well as anything that anyone else has noticed. Now I personally like the series a lot but for the Warriors articles to be their best, I feel we should the inconsistencies like some other articles have Critisms. After all nothing is perfect and Wikipedia is supposed to be neutral. What does everyone think? Turtlepaw
- I don't think that could get its own article... What about just a section of it on this page or something like that?
- TakaraLioness 03:14, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
-
- That could work... where on the page? Turtlepaw
-

- Well gee, Doomsday, aren't you the cheery one? I don't think Turtlepaw meant anything. Spottedstripe 23:55, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Incorrect Informaton Corrected
I've corrected a section that claims that the Warriors Series has Outsold Harry Potter books. I've included links to refrences and explained where the misconception that most Warriors fans have taken up as thier War-cry in the 'WARRIORS MOVIE' crusade.
I simply am noting in here so that more people than I fully aware of the truth of the situation.
Kitsufox 02:51, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Archived Links List Talk
In light of the level of final that in place for the links list discussion, I've archived it. However livly the discussion was, it was a waste of space, as the rules clearly state it's against them. Thusly, we're done discussing it. Those of us working on the Warriors Page have more important matters on our hands, such as getting our artical perfected.
I've added book covers this morning, also.
Kitsufox 14:51, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Need more help?
I've never really changed anything on Wiki before, so bear with me. But if there are any articles that still need re-written, throw 'em at me. It might take a while, I'm a busy person, but I'm willing to help! Featherpaw (talk) 18:17 November 28, 2006
[edit] Rising Storm Book Cover
The Cover in the article isn't the only one. Canadien stores have a entirly diffrent one. It should be added. (Idon't now how) Google Erin Hunter Rising Storm and you'll see. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.156.28.69 (talk) 20:34, 7 December 2006 (UTC).
- Rising Storm's cover varies depending on the version. The paperback's version has Fireheart and Sandstorm, while the hardcover (the one displayed on the page) has Firestar and Cloudpaw.
- TakaraLioness 21:34, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
- Thank you for clearing that up. I was, in fact, a bit confused on that. But should we put up images of both the versions, just so people like me don't get confused? Spottedstripe 21:56, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Cleanup Coming
Soon, I'm planning on grabbing the first series of novels, 2-6, and New Prophecy number 3 as well as 1, 2, and 5 which I own. I'm going to glance at all of them and draft them down on paper by myself and translate them here. Hopefully, this can occur sometime in the next month, while I'm still on break but after Christmas. Just so everyone knows. In the meantime, I'll be performing regular maintenance. DoomsDay349 01:47, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] What's Wrong with this page?
Is it just me, or is the bottom of the page messed up? ~17 January 2007~
- I did see that the entry on Firestar's Quest was in the reference section, if that's what you mean. I'm not sure how to fix it, but other than that, the page looks fine to me.
- And please sign your posts.
- TakaraLioness 22:18, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] To-do list for cleanup
For general reference, here is a list of things we need to do: Pretty much the whole first series needs cleanup and the second series needs some work. We might check for some minor typos just to be safe. After that we should be able to remove the cleanup tags!--Res2216firestar 21:04, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
Ok, I have a list of what needs cleanup: Fire and Ice, Forest of Secrets, Rising Storm , A Dangerous Path, Dawn, Starlight, and Twilight need cleanup, I just finished The Darkest Hour and seeing the list I think we'll be done with the cleanup very soon!--Res2216firestar 21:47, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Lost Warrior Release Date
The article says it's released on the Feb.29 but this Febuary only has 28 days then it goes to April when is The Lost Warrior released?
- The article's been fixed to read the correct date, and please sign your posts.
- TakaraLioness 02:56, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] I can start the character articles
Hello I'm a new user of Wikapedia and can start the character bio's almost immediatly if you want if you give me the go ahead I can become a regular for the Warriors. Only I can't do any articles for the first series character's Dustpelt,Sandstorm etc. because er, I loaned them out and am not sure when I can get them back. Griffenflash 00:36, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
- I would rather you focus on improving the List of Warriors Characters entries, as I don't believe the characters are notable enough for each to have their own characters. Remember to write following the fiction guidelines. Thanks for your help! DoomsDay349 00:39, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
Your welcome I've added entries for Blackstar and Russetfur on the character page if they stay please add on any apprentices they may of had. And any changes you could make I messed up the titles a bit. Griffenflash 20:09, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
Sweet. I'll help you if you want, because I remember, like, everything from the first series. Spottedstripe 22:03, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Question About The Herb List
It sounds like it will get much longer after Secrets Of The Clans is released if it gets too long what do we do with it? Griffenflash 21:58, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
- Hm... Good question. Well, I suppose if it gets too long, we could make it into its own article, but we'd need to add more detail to it. I think that's possible though.
- TakaraLioness 00:22, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
Maybe any other facts about Warriors that don't reallly fit into the current articles too..Griffenflash 01:28, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
- Actually, once Secrets of the Clans comes out, we should make maybe two articles (depending on the amount of info) on the infromation given, or make each subject into it's own page. Just a thought... Sunset7611 02:03, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
A Warrrors Miscellonus section for anything about Warriors that doesn't have a impact on the story or a character like the terms, herb list and Secrets of The Clans info? And shouldn't this go in the Clan article discussion? Griffenflash 19:54, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Pictures on Character Pages
Hello. I'm a huge warriors fan, but I do believe that pictures are needed on the character pages. Descriptions are there, granted, but pictures would be helpful. Possibly one of the little things on the side where it says... Name Picture Relations Clan And such? Possibly... Just a suggestion. Of course, we could wait for Secret of the Clans to come out... 16:49, 21 March 2007 (UTC)3/21/06 Pantherstar —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Pantherstar (talk • contribs) 16:48, 21 March 2007 (UTC).
- Left click on the image, veiw image, left click again, save image as, save the file, go to upload file, select browse, find your image, click open, change the Destination filename:, select a licensing tag, fill in the Summary:, and click upload file. It sounds hard but its in fact very easy. See my userpage for all the images I've uploaded. Regards, «razorclaw» 22:34, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] A Whole New Page
I agree with a lot that was said above. I personally think this page needs book covers, more description... Maybe a Warriors Wiki! That would be nice. I will try to put book covers on myself, even though I really don't know how...
April 1, 6:02 Mapleleaf
- There is a Warriors Wiki actually.
- TakaraLioness 21:12, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
You can help with it if you'd like to-Robinfur
Oh... I'm sorry... I honestly didn't know that there was a page called Warriors Wiki. Maybe there should be a link for it. Mapleleaf, April 21, 2007, 7:41 P.M.
[edit] About this page...
Could we seperate this page into different pages? eg: Warriors (novel series) - Warriors: The New Prophecy (novel series) - Warriors:The power of Three (novel series) - Warriors: Special Editions (novel series) - Warriors: Manga (series) - Warriors Movie? «razorclaw» 23:27, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, because if we start adding summaries for The Power of Three, this page will get so loooooong. Good idea, but I'll need some help from you-I'm too noobish to know this kind of stuff. Spottedstripe 01:44, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] this is wrong!
you moron idiots, the story isnt TOLD by Rusty, or the other cats! its ABOUT them! geez, get your facts right!—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.192.12.173 (talk) 00:02, 12 April 2007 (UTC).
Okay, calm down. Where did you see this? --24.183.40.221 22:17, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
- The first series is told from Rusty's point of view. It isn't narrated by him though, you're right... But besides that, if you spot a mistake, just fix it yourself. Anyone can edit these.
- TakaraLioness 23:59, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
- I think all of the first series is from Fireheart's point of veiw, and the other seires varies. I know Midinght is from Brambleclaw and Moonrise is from Stormfur. Spottedstripe 22:01, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
- Aherm, for the second reply, that's the same thing. I LOVE insulting people :D, ignore that part. Anyways, that's fixed I think. Lalasflds 3:45, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Complete Rewrite?
I've noticed that someone put up a--I don't know what to call it--"suggestion" on the article that the article may "need a complete rewrite." Does the article really need a complete rewrite? It's really gotten very, very much better than what it started out as. Sure, it still can use cleanup, but I don't think it needs to be wiped out and started all over again...
Does anyone else have any thoughts on this? TakaraLioness 04:25, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
I think that the article doesn't need a complete rewrite. Its pretty organised as it is and if it is rewritten, more speculation might start cropping up and it will be hard to rewrite the article and delete speculations. It needs cleanup, but not a whole overhaul. -Katie
It does need a few things but not a complete rewrite.-Sandstorm April 19 07
I agree. im going to be bold DAVID CAT 20:00, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Crap?
It seems someone has gone on a bashing spree of the Warriors series by calling it crap constantly on the page, starting with, "[b][i]Warriors[/i][/b] is a book series written terribly" and even making the title of the first section, "Original crap". Could someone please remove this? Wikipedia is supposed to be about opinion. 69.92.33.74 00:19, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
- You can remove it yourself also. Wikipedia can be edited by anyone... Anyway, I've reverted the page back to the way it was earlier... 70.100.159.193 is the one messing with the article.
- TakaraLioness 01:33, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
Oh, okay. Thanks. Kinda sad that people do that.69.92.33.74 02:13, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
- I find it more annoying than sad, but I agree with you.
- TakaraLioness 02:30, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
- That's just being abusive to the article. I mean, if you didn't like the series, then you don't have to read it, but just don't put it on the net. Spottedstripe 21:53, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Character Pics
Just wondering, for the character bios, should we have pictures on the characters (if possible)? Dolphinflipper
Wait for the Secret of the Clans to come out. This has been disscussed before. Spottedstripe 00:01, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Crowfeather NOT Cinderpelt
On the cover of Twilight it is Crowfeather whether we like it or not. Midnight-Brambleclaw Moonrise-Feathertail Dawn-Squirrelflight Starlight-Leafpool Twilight-Cinderpelt!?! Does anybody see a pattern b-fore Cinderpelt? The cats on the covers are all cats from the journey or leafpool, Whose POV is quite common. Cinderpelt is a whole generation older than these cats and does NOT fit in. I know she died in Twilight but please, can't you see that It's CROWFEATHER?!?! He fits into that group of cats, unlike cinderpelt. I know the cat looks like her too, but STILL, she does not FIT IN! Erin describes him as a quite scrawny cat, with a small, neat head, and that looks like the cover cat. Crowfeather has alot to do with the book too, like when leafpool runs away with him, and fights the urge to see him. So DON't CHANGE IT BACK TO CINDERPELT!?!? .....idiots.....--Oakclaw
Um... I don't disagree with you, but I have some questions about that. What about Hawkfrost on the cover of Sunset? He didn't go on the journey and he isn't one of the MOST important characters in the book. And wasn't the prolouge of Twilight about Cinderpelt? Remember, I am NOT taking sides about Crowfeather or Cinderpelt, but the clues fit both of them. Featherfrost 21:42, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
I have a better idea! Instead of assuming, the next Erin Hunter chat is coming up, and if someone is attending, will they PLEASE ask if the cover of Twilight looks more like Crowfeather or Cinderpelt???? Featherfrost 21:46, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
- Sure... I can do that. The chat's all the way in May, but anyway, the edit wars over that little line in the Twilight section need to stop... I think they have, but, eh, you never know.
- TakaraLioness 21:56, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
I ASSURE you. It IS Crowfeather. To Featherfrost- Hawkfrost is B-claw's brother, and the villan of the series. He does fit in. He is in the same generation of cats as Leafpool, Crowfeather, Feathertail etc. Cinderpelt is way older then them, and you have to admit, she still doesn't fit in. Oh and Erin already answered the question in a previous chat. She agrees with me. I know they are both major characters in the book, but Leafpool RUNS AWAY with Crowfeather. That is a major part of the book. I know what you mean about Cinderpelt having a major role, but still......Think about L-pool and her obsession about him... And when i find it, i will post the link to the chat here.---Oakclaw
I guess it looks more like Crowfeather if you look at it that way... Cinderpelt just has bits of info leading to her as well, but I never said that it wasn't Crowfeather! Still, to just make sure, TakaraLioness, can you still ask about it when it chat comes up? And Oakclaw, if you can post the previous chat, thanks. I think Stormfur and Tawnypelt should have gotten their picture on the cover of a book; they belong in the same generation as well. Well, maybe not Tawnypelt, she wasn't THAT important compared to the others, but Stormfur... he was pretty important in Moonrise along with Feathertail. Featherfrost 21:37, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
Someone keeps changing it back to Cinderpelt. Should I put a lock on the page? Spottedstripe 21:49, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, Spottedstripe, please do. I just looked on one one chat and it didn't say anything....guess i'll keep on trying. I SWEAR i saw it somewhere......--Oakclaw
Both Cinderpelt and Crowfeather have big parts in the book...so it could be either but I believe it is Crowfeather.And Brambleclaw has amber eyes in the descriptions but on Midnight he has green eyes...so???-Sandstorm April 19 07
Just wondering... how can you lock a page? If you do, if the chat reveals that it is Cinderpelt instead of Crowfeather, someone will have to unlock it to change it, but I doubt that it might be Cinderpelt now. Featherfrost 23:19, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
- I'm not sure how you can lock a page, but I don't think we'd need to lock it entirely. We could just cut it off from being edited by certain people (like those who aren't using accounts, newer accounts, etc). TakaraLioness 00:04, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- I like the idea, TakaraLioness, except then I wouldn't be able to edit it. But then again, if I'm holding people back, I don't want to be a problem. Lock it as you wish, and I'll just have to suffer. Spottedstripe 01:43, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, I wouldn't be able to go on either. Do you have to lock it all the way down?
Mapleleaf, April 22, 2007, 10:13 A.M.
[edit] Did you know...
Cat
The cat (or domestic cat, house cat) is a small carnivorous mammal. It is valued by humans for its companionship and its ability to destroy furniture.
The cat is also intelligent, it can be trained to obey simple commands, such as 'attack', and has been known to teach itself to manipulate simple mechanisms as the pulley and lever (see cat intelligence).
Cats are known to strike prey by pouncing from such a perch as a tree branch, someones head or a fence rail —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Razorclaw (talk • contribs) 20:37, 17 April 2007 (UTC).
- Uh... Okay, but what does that have to do with anything?
- TakaraLioness 21:07, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

- Nothing... Just a little vandalism I found and thought was funny... Razorclaw 20070418235011
- I see. Heh. Well, it was pretty random.
- TakaraLioness 23:56, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
- Hah. Nice in pointing out the obvious and unrelated things, Mr. Smarty! - Suckit! 20:53, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] WHO IS ICEKIT AND FOXKIT?
Under kits for The Sight, someone keeps saying that there's an Icekit and Foxkit. If there are those kits, whoever's doing it, save it until the book comes out! Featherfrost 21:41, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
Even though those are interesting names, I agree, until it's confirmed don't put it on the page. Spottedstripe 21:51, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
- No, it is confirmed that they are kits actually. Read the excerpt for yourselves: http://www.warriorcats.com/update/sight_ex.html. The kits are mentioned by name. With something like that, I don't think you actually have to wait until the book's out to have it up, because anyone can see it. TakaraLioness 00:00, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
Who is their mom? as I have said before I think it is Ferncloud.-Sandstorm April 19 07
- We don't know yet. TakaraLioness 22:41, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
I didn't know an excerpt was up! That was pretty cool. I guess that Icekit and Foxkit should go on there. But on Kate Cary's page, The Guttersnipe, OAQ's, there was a question about would cats name their kits after enemyies(ex. Badgerkit, Foxkit, etc...), and she responded by saying something about will your parents name you Influenza, or something like that. Then why would they later name a cat Foxkit? Featherfrost 23:22, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
- I'd call Kate's response more humorous than serious. I dunno why they named that kit Foxkit, though Kate did write The Sight (I don't know if that's significant to the kit's name or not, but it is a fact). Oh well. I can't say that I dislike the name or anything. I like it actually. TakaraLioness 22:41, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah. Maybe they named the kit Foxkit because it was orange and it had white on the tip of its tail. Who knows? We'll know soon enough...and I'm getting really excited about it!! Spottedstripe 01:41, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
This may not be important, but I personally think that Whitepaw and Birchpaw will have Icekit and Foxkit. And on what Kate Cary said, she asked if our mothers would name us Influenza or Stalin. I don't know if she was serious. Mapleleaf, April 21, 2007, 7:31 P.M.
I think Foxkit is a good name as well. So Mapleleaf, you think that Whitepaw's mate is going to be Birchpaw? They might definitely get their warrior names by the beginning of the Sight. I think Whitepaw will get her warrior name already, but sometimes, apprentice training can take longer and Birchpaw started as an apprentice in Twilight, so he might be nearing the end of his training or already finished. Featherfrost
I think Whitepaw and Birchpaw would make a cute couple! :) And Foxkit isn't a bad name at all. The warrior name might become Foxtail. Mapleleaf, April 22, 2007, 9:56 A.M.

Mapleleaf, that may be correct. In Dark River Whitewing is a gueen!! Badgerstripe 20:42, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Moonrise cover
Hey, is that Feathertail of Stormfur on the center cover? Both look alike, and I can't tell. Spottedstripe 21:59, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
- According to Cherith and the books' descriptions, it's Feathertail. Stormfur's a dark gray cat with amber eyes, not a silver tabby with blue eyes like Feathertail. TakaraLioness 23:56, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
- Oh, yeah, duh. I shoulda known that. Thanks Takaralioness. Spottedstripe 23:59, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Runningnose
Does anyone know what book Runningnose dies in. It doesn't say in any of the books. I've been wondering about this for days.-Sandstorm April 19 07
- I don't think it does say whether he's died or not. We just know that he's an elder. I'm sure Littlecloud would've said if Runningnose had died, or it would've been announced at a Gathering... TakaraLioness 23:46, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Are Stormfur and Brook still in ThunderClan?
Something doesn't make sense. In The Sight excerpt, it said something about Stormfur and Brook not having ThunderClan scent, but they should have adapted it after living with ThunderClan for about 6 moons. That's a little confusing. Featherfrost 23:24, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
- It was told that from one of the kits' points of views (I can't remember which of them said that line), so maybe it was just what that cat thought... Or maybe Stormfur and Brook went away for a little while or something. Four more days, then we should know. TakaraLioness 23:45, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
- Oh, yeah, I can't wait! I think I'm gonna break down and buy the Power of Three series, because my friend is sick of me borrowing his. But what Featherfrost said...hmm, that's a topic to ponder on. Spottedstripe 23:58, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
I picked out that little moment from the excerpt:
"If only Stormfur and Brook smelled like ThunderClan cats, it would've been easier to detect them!" Lionkit complained.
"We'd never have smelled them whatever their scent," Jaykit pointed out. "The wind was blowing the wrong way."
So, from that, I dunno why the two wouldn't smell like ThunderClan cats... Though, I suppose they could've just given themselves very thorough groomings to wash away scents from their pelts. That would make them not smell like ThunderClan cats. Since the wind wasn't blowing their scent to the kits, maybe Lionkit was just frustrated that he couldn't smell them at all, and just whined that they didn't smell like ThunderClan. Eh. I dunno. That's my thought for now. Stormfur and Brook are both referred to as (their pawsteps' owners are anyway) warriors a little further in the text, so they must've stayed long enough for Brook to be called a warrior... TakaraLioness 00:18, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
In Sunset, Brook and Stormfur hadn't decided whether they'd stay in ThunderClan or not. They might have left and went back to the Tribe and come back, or something like that. Mapleleaf (talk), April 21, 2007, 7:34 P.M.
I dunno, maybe the book will explain more... Did anyone like how Sunset ended with lots of questions? (Like the thing with the Tribe, the traitor, the 3 stars, etc...) I thought that they shouldn't have ended with so many cliffhangers. Featherfrost 00:17, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
There were way too many secrets! I still don't know how I got through waiting for the book to come out. I was practically on the edge of my seat waiting for the Sight.

[edit] Secret of the Clans cover
Hi, sorry to bug you guys about covers again, but I think the cat in the center cover could be Firestar (Firepaw), Squirrelflight, Leafpool or Lionpaw. I put that on there not long ago, but someone changed it back and if I put it again, I'm afraid I'll be abusing the article. Can someone please share their thoughts? Spottedstripe 00:06, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- That was me. ^^; Sorry. I just wanted to avoid having speculation like that here until we get some more info about it. Maybe we can get the authors' views on the cover in the May chat, but for now... It's pretty ambiguous. There are more ginger/light brown cats with yellow/amber eyes in the forest.
- TakaraLioness 00:17, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- Oh, OK. I agree that we should ask the authors first. I'm kind of a noob to Wikipedia, so I just wanted to make sure I wasn't picking a fight with other Warrior fans like Razorclaw or Oakclaw. Thank you again, TakaraLioness. You are a true Warrior, and I'm sure people could learn a lot from you!! Spottedstripe 01:37, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
Thank you. ^^ TakaraLioness 00:40, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
Waitaminute...Firestar doesn't have yellow eyes, his are green! That must mean it's a different cat. Spottedstripe 00:20, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
Could just be a mistake.

[edit] Warriors Wikiquote
Hi, I just wanted to say the other day I clicked on the 'Warriors Wikiquote' link at the bottom of the page and I wanted to say...well...there is no Wikiquote! Is this a project in the works, or was there some confusion...? I know I have a lot of questions, please forgive me, but I think we need to clear this up so it can be deleted if need be. Thank you all so much! Spottedstripe 01:52, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
- After a bit of looking, I found it: http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Warriors. But brace yourself, it's horribly disorganized... ^^; I was thinking of working on it one day, but I guess I never got around to it... TakaraLioness 03:06, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
- Once again, you have shown me the answer very simply. I'll start working on it, but once again TakaraLioness, you have enough knowledge to be a Clan leader. Spottedstripe 11:52, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
- OK, I cleaned up the Wikiquote with the existing quotes, but it still needs more work and more quotes, so I left the clean-up tab up on the top of the page. I can't do this on my own, so I need some helpers! Any volunteers? Spottedstripe 19:24, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Page Changes
Hello! I just want to say that I think that there should be more things changed on this page. What about a section on due dates? Or maybe a seperate page on covers? How about the whole page being seperate, like having the original series by itself, the new prophecy by itself, and so on? I would do it myself, but I really don't know how to do a new page. Could anyone tell me? Mapleleaf (talk), April 21, 2007, 7:39 P.M.
- I don't think the page neeeds to be split up like that exactly. I could see seperate (detailed) pages for each book (the covers could go to their respective books' pages, etc), but since this one is focusing on the series as a whole, it should list all of the books together and such. TakaraLioness 17:18, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
OK, I see some changes have been made since I was gone. Just wanted to comment the page looks much better. It's a good idea, since Mrs. Hunter would probably continue to write many books and the page would grow increasingly looooooong. Anyway, just wanted to tell whoever made the changes good job.
