Hi, thx for your contributions to the wiki, but can you reconsider what you are doing on quest articles please? Adding links to other exsisting quest guide is fine but copy-pasting might not be (without original creater's permission). Over-writing exsisting wiki text by that copy-pasting is especially bad imo. I know some of our quest articles dont have much contents compared to Lost quest guide etc but there are so many contributers working on it. This is a wiki, so please respect other contributers. --yoko5000 02:41, September 22, 2010 (EDT)
 * oh and if you want, i can help you to make every quest article to have link to Lost guide / Syperwolf video, by modding quest template. --yoko5000 02:49, September 22, 2010 (EDT)

Makes it easier for me if I don't think I need to copy paste (plus edit) all those quest guides. Just trying to aggregate the data to one location. When I was a new player knew about the wiki before I knew about the lost quest guide. There are quite a few walk throughs for various quest that are on one (or more) ddo forum posts. Instead of forcing the new player to search all over the forums would be nice if there was one location he could obtain data, wiki logical location. (not to mention some of the quests guides have just as much information that needs to be edited which can be confusing for new players). As far as using the data without permission, I used references so that original author was acknowledged without plagiarizing his/her data. Saw what you did with http://ddowiki.com/page/Stopping_the_Sahuagin having section for external links. I will use this approach for future entries and I can go back and revise your rollbacks to fit your guidelines. Though I wonder if I see need to edit quest guide will I have to write revision and post to ddo forums and link in wiki? And if there is a quest with no lost quest guide and no info on wiki is it acceptable to do quest guide on wiki?
