User talk:Bastalonavatar

(Actual) Welcome
Hi, welcome to Wizardry Wiki! Thanks for your edit to the NPCs page.

Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! Well, that was kinda odd... (might figure I was getting kinda lazy; plus, I'm a bit more...didactical rather than polite...)

Anyways, big thanks for the contribution, mostly on making new articles such as the Special Items and NPCs sections. I'll try to work them as proper categories (unless you wish to work on those).

You're free to use the template if you feel the article is a bit incomplete, use the  template to garnish your userpage and...well, not that much.

Re: Answer
I reckon you said you were interested on detailing the story a bit more. So far, I have worked the story into its different campaigns, mostly the Llylgamyn set of scenarios and the Dark Savant set of scenarios. Not sure if you're familiar with the concept of campaigns and scenarios, but the game has a sort of extended story (the campaign) based on a set of adventures (scenarios) which are detailed in each game. For reference, the first three games (Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord, The Knight of Diamonds and Legacy of Llylgamyn) are officially considered part of the Llylgamyn saga, while the two following games (Return of Werdna and Heart of the Maelstrom) are considered to be later on the timeline. The last three games (Bane of the Cosmic Forge, Crusaders of the Dark Savant and Wizardry 8) are considered to be a different campaign because of the scale of the adventures and the general changes. Any other games that have sequels (such as Wizardry: Tales of the Forsaken Land, Wizardry Gaiden or Wizardry Xth) may be also considered separate "campaigns" for this purpose. If you can, it will be good if you worked within this simple mainframe.

As for Wiki editing, I intend not to be so strict, given that I'm also a bit green on terms of editing. As usual, if you feel the information is not enough for an article, you may use the stub template and mark it as a work in progress.

In the case of the games, the article about the first game has an infobox template that includes the technical information. If you desire, I might add these for you. I'm also interested on how you'll deal with the NPCs; they need an infobox as well, but if you can offer some data from the Wizardry Archives manual in order to make a useful infobox, please tell.

The one last thing I'd like you to add are the pages where the information is located, even if it's from a PDF source. Just mention the name of the book (which should be on the first page), the date (if you can find it) and the page where it can be located. Add that at the lowest part of the page and I'll fix it so that it looks a bit more "professional".

In any case, if you feel a bit confused by what I ask, you're free to send me any doubts or concerns. I expect this to be a good experience for you. -- TGOskar 02:45, October 12, 2009 (UTC)
