[QUOTE="BOZ, post: 5342812, member: 1241"] At the [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Dungeons_%26_Dragons"]D&D WikiProject[/URL] on Wikipedia, we're always looking to improve the quality of our articles. We hope to get more and more in as good quality as those for the original Ravenloft module (featured on the main page today) and Expedition to the Barrier Peaks (featured in July). Some of the best resources we have found are the reviews, previews, interviews, and other coverage found in various gaming magazines, such as older issues of White Dwarf from Games Workshop. There are at least half a dozen such magazines, some old and some not so old, which have covered D&D products to some degree. I have gotten my hands on a good chunk of White Dwarf issues from before they put the focus solely on Games Workshop products, and the content I have been able to add to Wikipedia articles has been fantastic. But my collection of retro gaming magazines, and other useful sources, is so terribly incomplete! I recently [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Dungeons_%26_Dragons#Working_on_articles"]started a thread[/URL] on our WikiProject regarding getting access to more sources for article improvement. As I noted there, I came up with [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Dungeons_%26_Dragons/reviews_list"]a list of magazines[/URL] with reviews in them that we can use to improve (or create) articles on various D&D publications. If you have copies of any of the issues listed there, or issues of some other magazine with reviews which I was not previously aware, you can help out in a big way! You don't have to do any actual editing on Wikipedia, as I'm more than willing to put in the work. If you could send me a copy of the text of the reviews, or a readable scan of any of the reviews on that list (including author name, issue #, cover date, page numbers, publisher name, please) I will do all the work myself. :) Any way you can help out, small or big, is appreciated! :) [/QUOTE]
