It's not that you can't - that would be ridiculous. ;) It's that what you should do is to find a source written by someone who comments on things such as how elves changed from edition to edition, or the different ways people use elves in a campaign, or how they are similar to or different...

They didn't seem to know too much about either of those databases. They did have access to one called "Literary Reference Center" though, which I used to add some to "The Legend of Huma" and actually looks like it has a lot more potential to add to articles about the authors than it does about...

Peter Adkison has a project page on Facebook about him making just such a show.

"Primary sources" in this case means using sources from or closely affiliated to the publisher. As much as possible on Wikipedia, we want to utilize independent reliable sources. Yeah, in some ways that is kind of bass-ackwards, but that's how people seem to want it so that's how the policies...

Thanks, I will have to give that a shot! I know that I spent many hours at the library with "Heroic Worlds" (since, for whatever reason, they filed it as a reference work so I could not actually check it out).

Yep - the dwarf article used to look more like that, so there is always potential. ;)

Ooh, where was this printed? I think we could use it on Wikipedia. :)

Nothing in particular, but Wikipedia articles always have room for improvement. :) It's going to come up for Good Article review, and I would like to see it succeed, so that's why I'm asking. :)

I know that we do have at least one review on Dragons of the Dwarven Depths, The Dargonesti, Dragons of the Hourglass Mage, Prisoner of Haven, and Wanderlust - and I'm pretty sure we have at least one Library Journal review on at least one DL novel article somewhere. Is that a public search...

Do you know of any reviews or other sources that can be used to add to these articles on Wikipedia? They may have reviews in gaming magazines, sci-fi magazines, or other sources. Keep in mind that Wikipedia has higher standards on what is acceptable as sources; for example, most blogs and...

That is good too, but it does require a bit more navigation work.

Hey everybody! :) What can we do to make Wikipedia's article on the D&D dwarf into a Good Article? :)

OK cool, I imagine that's what I am looking for. :)

Does anyone know of a good link to a full list of TSR products by product code (TSR XXXX)? And for the sake of argument, yes, I specifically do mean everything not related to D&D as well.

Hi Jonathan. Actually, it was deleted due to lack of proper sourcing. The editor who targeted it is what we call a "deletionist", i.e., one who is more strict on sourcing guidelines and likely to call for deleting something with insufficient or borderline sourcing. Since this was deleted by...

Worth looking, but a dead end: Lekena was added two and a half years ago by a random IP who made no further edits. Moon Goddess was added in March 2008 as part of a much larger edit - again we have another IP who hasn't edited since then. Unless someone else comes up with a source, I will be...

Since they were added without a source, they are probably either a hoax or from someone's home campaign. If no source can be found, they will have to be removed from the list. I'll go through the edit history and see when they were added, and maybe I can contact the original editor who added...
