Video Deletion
Many apologies, but I uploaded a video on accident, thinking it would merely embed the video (not upload it). Newbie error. So sorry! I don't think I have permission to delete it. It's here: http://dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/File:Queen_-_A_Kind_Of_Magic --Death by Cheese (talk) 20:33, June 26, 2014 (UTC)


 * No problem at all  20:35, June 26, 2014 (UTC)


 * Thank you kindly! --Death by Cheese (talk) 20:36, June 26, 2014 (UTC)

Tenses
Hey, I noticed that you rewrote Leliana's page to be mostly in the past tense. However, per MOS, events that transpire in the course of the games are supposed to be written in the present tense. The question is now, who is going to correct that now. :) --Koveras Alvane (talk) 21:37, June 26, 2014 (UTC)


 * Ah, you're very observant! As a matter of fact, I'd been meaning to publish a section the MoS' talk page on that very matter but as you can see I got ahead of myself with the Leliana page :) If you wish to do so, feel free to go ahead and revert my edit (it can always be restored depending on the outcome of the discussion on the MoS talk page). 21:45, June 26, 2014 (UTC)


 * I don't usually revert others' edits unless they are vandalism, so I would much rather first see where our MOS discussion goes before editing the article accordingly. --Koveras Alvane (talk) 06:51, June 27, 2014 (UTC)

Dorian's Character Profile
Hey Cousy, sorry for bugging you, but I just wanted to tell you that Dorian's Character profile is up. I was just wondering if you were going to make a blog about it. There's a lot of interesting stuff in it and it does say he is full on gay. I'd do it, but I have no idea how to make a blog as eloquent as you do. Thank you and have a nice day.

Sorry don't know how to make links look pretty. Here you go: http://www.dragonage.com/#!/en_US/news/character-profile-dorian

Sorry forgot my name! B.S.S.T. (talk) 19:36, June 27, 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks B.S.S.T! The blog is now up. 20:27, June 27, 2014 (UTC)

Character Profile: Dorian enquiry
Hey KC, I don't know if you've come across it or not, but an anon, http://dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Contributions/72.197.153.5, has posted what I see as a really intolerant and abusive message using words such as n*ggas and comparing gays to slavery of the sorts. Although this wiki allows for a freedom of expression, I can't help but think that this will offend many others, but is is. 11:09, June 28, 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks for alerting me Lazare, you made the right call :) 11:40, June 28, 2014 (UTC)

Vandalism on Cole page
96.42.56.24 has vandalized the Cole page more than once. I think it requires some disciplinary action.(Sports72Xtrm (talk) 06:06, June 29, 2014 (UTC))


 * Hi, thanks for reporting this. Looks like Loleil dealt with the vandal. 22:23, June 29, 2014 (UTC)

QUESTION SUBMITED ?
hello K.C. a while ago i saw in the forrum ( or maybe it was in the news section i'm not sure ? ) a proposition allowing wiki users to submit question that would then be taken to E3 2014's dragon age panel for D.A.I. creative staff to answer ( i myself did not submit any question ) but i am curious if first : there was any question that had been submited ?, second : if there was someone who had been able to take those question and ask them to the D.A.I. staff ? and third : if that person had been able to return with however many answers he or she was able to get to make a proper article with the list of questions and there answers ? if that ( or these ) article/s already exist could you please point me in the right direction and if they do not can you motivate the person in charge of it to "hurry up" ( i know i'm repeating myself but i'm very curious ) and if the plan failled for some reasons ( due to lack of question or maybe the representant was unable ask or the staff was unwilling to deliver the answers )just tell me so and i wont bother you again with it ok ! DragonInquisitor (talk) 20:39, June 29, 2014 (UTC)

THAT'S A DAWM SHAME !
i hope you wont think of my title as too vulgar or impolite ( i'm found of using pre-existing expression often heard in movie and sometime there true cultural and languistic meaning escape me and i end up insulting someone if that's the case please accept my apology ) still from the understanding i have of it that pretty much sum up how i feel and finaly thank you for taking the time to give me an answer !

sorry i forgot to sign : DragonInquisitor (talk) 01:04, June 30, 2014 (UTC)

Persistent Anon and the Iron Bull Romance
There is a persistent anon that keeps adding the Iron Bull as a romance option and its source is just another information gathering site and doesn't even present its source. Here is his 'source' http://www.paperdroids.com/2014/04/17/dragon-age-inquisition-details-revealed-including-romance-options/

I don't think the source is reliable.

Can you help out here? I don't usually complain about this but this guy needs to get that the Iron Bull is not a confirmed romance until the Devs though and not joke through twitter. Can we do something to prevent stuff like this in the future?

Here is the anon's page if he continues. http://dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Contributions/24.112.206.143

Supergodzilla118 (talk) Supergodzilla118 23:58, June 30, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi, thanks for letting me know about this. I'll leave a message on the anon's page and lock the companions page so anons can't edit it. 00:07, July 1, 2014 (UTC)

Dagna in Inquisition?
I was checking BioWare's twitter and ther ewas a convo between Jennifer Helper (former writer) and a fan who asked about the possibility of Dagna in Inquisition. Helper confirmed that Danga was in before she left BioWare last August. Can we use this as a reference? Here is the twitter thread on BioWare forums if you want an easier look at it. http://forum.bioware.com/topic/399000-the-dai-twitter-thread-oh-hi-solas/page-1571

I know to take it for a grain of salt since she used to be a writer, but should we take this into consideration

(I call dibs on making a news post if this ends up being reliable) Supergodzilla118 (talk) Supergodzilla118 22:18, July 2, 2014 (UTC)


 * Well, it seems someone went ahead, ignored the talk page and added Dagna in. Me and Laz agreed it wasn't news worthy but should we still view the source as credible?  Supergodzilla118 (talk) Supergodzilla118 10:58, July 3, 2014 (UTC)

Not at All
Don't mind fixing up my blog a bit at all. I'm a bit sketchy with my writing a bit, always trying to improve though. Thanks.

Will start up a talk page discussion on Danga's page though.

Ryott
A new page was created called Ryott, don't know what it is but did some research and it was from Blood in Ferelden or something. As such, I don't know if it was significant enough to gain its own page. Could you clarify this? 17:37, July 4, 2014 (UTC)

Reporting Xsari
Hey man, I hate being a whinny little... but My post has been deleted twice by Xsari from a forum post: http://dragonage.wikia.com/index.php?title=Forum%3ALeliana%27s_random_eye_colour_change&diff=589074&oldid=589058 http://dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Leliana%27s_random_eye_colour_change?t=20140704195922

I told him on his talk page it wasn't allowed and he removed it also: http://dragonage.wikia.com/index.php?title=User_talk%3AXsari&diff=589235&oldid=589190

So yeah that's my report.

Very Odd Question
Hey buddy how's your day going? I hope it's going well! So I was just curious if um when The Scribe Girl profile and interview gets out could I maybe... possibly... do the blogs for her? I'm asking you because well you know... you're the King of the Wiki and ungodly fast when it comes to doing the news (seriously how do you do it so fast?!). It's just a one time thing I promise! I won't do it again. Besides you're leagues better than me at doing the news I just wanted to be a glory hound when it comes to her. Maybe you could even teach me how to do the blogs like you. Just the basics so I can do them as well as you. Like formatting pictures and what jokes are appropriate. Little things. Anyway if um you decline then that's totally fine I was just, you know, curious. Have a nice day and uh thanks for thinking about my proposal. I love you! I'm sorry for that outburst. I'm just... really nervous. I'm gonna... I'm just gonna go. B.S.S.T. (talk) 03:01, July 5, 2014 (UTC)

Thank you my friend, I truly appreciate the help. If I need anything I'll be sure to come to you. Have a nice weekend. B.S.S.T. (talk) 15:49, July 5, 2014 (UTC)

Question
Hey KC! I hope you're doing great! I am sending you this message because I can't find written in the rules the outcome of the decision taken in this forum post long time ago. Needless to say that this regulation has been enforced all this time. If you cannot find the regulations in the rules as well, could you please add it yourself? Thanks in advance! 18:26, July 7, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi Vikki, sorry for my late response. I don't have whole lot of time at the minute so you could go ahead and do this yourself if you like or wait for tomorrow when I'll be freer. 22:01, July 8, 2014 (UTC)


 * Considering that my version may have some mistakes (as I am not a native speaker), it'd be great if you could make the addition instead. 17:17, July 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi Viktoria, sorry again for the lateness but the addition has been added. 22:54, July 12, 2014 (UTC)


 * I've made a few additions as well. Many thanks for your help! 09:59, July 13, 2014 (UTC)

Unacknowledged Awakening Exploit
Hello King Cousland! I hope you had a great weekend! I just wanted to tell you about a bug in Awakening that isn't acknowledged in the Exploits page, Bugs page, or the page of the the quest that can cause it. This particular bug happens during the Assault on Amaranthine quest and it allows you to take all six of your party members with you. Once you activate the last quest and choose which party members to take, the small battle before the dialogue with Captain Garevel and Comstable Aidan plays out normally. If you decide to stay and save Amaranthine, you can highlight the exit of the area and travel back to Vigil's Keep to reactivate the last quest, being able to choose one more party member and going back to Amaranthine. You can repeat this until you have all party members with you. I play on the downloaded PS3 version if it helps. Thanks for reading! Aedan Amell (talk) 18:52, July 7, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi, thanks for letting me know about this. Would you like to add it yourself or shall I go ahead with it? 22:02, July 8, 2014 (UTC)


 * Could you please do it? I would, but I'd get nervous about where I should put it or how to put the platform symbol on it. Thanks! Aedan Amell (talk) 05:29, July 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * Done. 22:54, July 12, 2014 (UTC)

Wikia Issue
Hello KC. I wanted to discuss an issue with you with regards to clarifying a policy point. With titles for characters, what is our policy regarding putting things like (formerly) after said titles? Some characters titles seem to be dating from the latest possible point in the story while others date from the earliest. It seems like it could be a good idea to establish a consistent guideline. Zevran for instance says "Antivan Crow (formerly)" but its entirely possible for him (depending on the warden's choices) to have lived and died as a fully fledged antivan crow the entire time. Can we clear this up? - 10:44, July 12, 2014 (UTC)

This might sound a little odd but could you make the forum thread please KC, every time I try to make a forum thread on wikia I get an error message for some reason. I personally would suggest removing "formerly" entirely but the date option could work too. I definitely think we should establish a consistent protocol for dealing with this ASAP though. - 01:40, July 13, 2014 (UTC)

Appearance of Inquisition-romance page
Hey, I know I already expressed my opinion on the talk page of the romance page for Inqisition not even too long ago, but knowing talk pages, some of the concerns there can be easily lost. Could you please take a quick look at it? Any input would be welcome. -- 22:06, July 13, 2014 (UTC)


 * Actually nevermind, in the meantime it turned out this appearance has been prepared for longer than I thought, as I have never seen the talk page messages of Henio0 showing his idea for the appearance of that page. Guess this pretty much shows what I meant about talk pages and concerns being lost, right? :P Still my concerns are there, but just wanted to correct my previous message. -- 22:38, July 13, 2014 (UTC)


 * No problem Marge. Thanks for your concern! 00:39, July 16, 2014 (UTC)

Shields: Weapon or Armor?
I've been adding categories to weapon images, and I noticed that some shield images are categorized under "armor images." Shields offer protection, yes, but they aren't ever listed under armor in the inventories of either game. They're always found under weapons. They can also be used as weapons. Should shields be categorized here on the wiki as weapons, not armor? Just wondering, before I make any changes. --Death by Cheese (talk) 02:02, July 14, 2014 (UTC)

suggestion
Hello, I once added more pictures for the Leliana page, ignorant that the limit was twelve pictures. However the fact they're all mixed makes it look a little confusing, so using tabber for character pages might be handy to add more pictures than 12, so you can add a good number of pictures for each game they appear in. -- Altaïr 15:57, July 14, 2014 (UTC)

Editing problem
Hi I've just edited the Origins romance page to match the Inquisition one but for some reason everything underneath the romance interest section is red as well. Don't know why but this might be a problem for when more info is added to the Inquisition page. Xsari (talk) 13:40, July 15, 2014 (GMT)


 * Hi Xsari, sorry for my late response. It looks like Mostlyautumn fixed the problem. 01:02, July 16, 2014 (UTC)
