[edit] Changes to the wiki woodland creature articles

Hey everyone. You'll notice I made some changes to this article as well as Wikipedia:WikiFairy and Wikipedia:WikiGnome and all three of the articles' related cats and userboxes so that certain things were similar across the Wiki Woodland Creature articles.

These aren't really content changes, but things like making sure all of the pages linked to the other two in a See Also section, or making sure that all three articles always capitalized the first letter of whatever came after wiki or making sure that all the articles had the same type of info on their respective userboxes.

In the same line, I tried to keep the format of the userboxes and the category pages similar. I wrote descriptions for the category pages lacking them, and made sure that form stuff was the same on all of them. I also changed the userboxes so that all of the userboxes had linkes to the category as well as the article (only one or two of them had before).

Anyway, like I said no real content changes--this pretty sums up what I did for all three articles except that I made a few additional changes to this article. I moved the pictures for example due to formatting and where it made sense to put them and just some other minor formatting things. Also, most instances of Wikielf had had elf lowercase, unlike the WikiGnome and WikiFairy. I've changed this to be compatible with those two and for readability. This involved moving the article. I've also left a note for wikihermit about moving the userbox to a proper Wikipedia space like the other two articles. Miss Mondegreen | Talk   09:50, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

...and you've improved the article considerably (I've been meaning to say 'well done' for that) and you beat me to reverting that subtle vandal - article merge indeed - the cheek. Cheers, Paxse 18:19, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Just curious...

...how did the wiki gnomes, elves, fairies and trolls get to be so called? I am prepared to accept an interesting beautiful answer rather than a boring true one, btw :) Totnesmartin 20:16, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] This "race" is incredibly redundant and useless

The wikielf is just a superset of the WikiGnome...umm...pointless? Anyone else notice how redundant and vague this article is? So are WikiGnomes also WikiElves? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hypergeometric2F1(a,b,c,x) (talk • contribs) 02:48, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] No such listing page

The link to Category:Wikipedian WikiElves goes nowhere. Does it really exist, and if so where? 202.64.168.196 (talk) 07:29, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
