		+	: [[User:Octalot\|Octalot]]: Hmmm... that is a shame. But that was my risk to take. Whether people want to delete those pages for WoV that I've written is up to them. At any rate, [https://wiki.wesnoth.org/index.php?title=User:Sub2pewds&diff=65202&oldid=65196 I decided] a month ago to stop editing the wiki once the Wings of Victory pages were complete.
		+
		+	: In other words, it's time for me to say goodbye. It's been nearly a year of editing, and I'm very happy with the quality of the articles I made. Sadly, I don't expect them to be maintained or built upon, as nobody has shown interest in doing so. Fair enough. It is ''very'' time consuming. I hope nobody interprets anything I've said as upset or bitter, and I wish everyone all the best.

		+	At the moment I'm waiting for feedback from Zookeeper, but I've opened a pull request to change the first diverging campaign path so that the player always gets a chance to meet [[Minister Edren]]. If the player chooses [[The Midlands]], then after meeting Sir Ladoc Haldric realises that he has to backtrack and go through the [[Swamp of Esten]] anyway.

	(I'm not a moderator, this is just an opinion from another Wiki user.) I like the amount of effort that you're putting in to the TRoW pages, but feel having a page for every orc leader is too much. I'd say that "was an enemy leader in a kill-enemy-leaders scenario, said something, died" isn't notable enough to have a page separate from the scenario.

		+
		+	:Hi [[User:Octalot\|Octalot]]. To this point, my reasons for including pages for the orcish leaders have been in part personal preference. Another motivation was observing particularly successful game wiki sites, such as wow.gamepedia.com (see [https://wow.gamepedia.com/Venim_Iceblade Venim Iceblade] for example), which generally considers being named in-game as sufficient criteria for inclusion. What I would consider notable on this wiki would probably include all explicitly mentioned characters from the mainline campaigns, just because it is such a clear-cut rule, but if the Wesnoth community decide that this is too broad, so be it.
