Robilar

Hi there. Your impressive edits gave a lot of out-of-universe text, so I restored Robilar and copied them back there to give it more room. I would remove the Robilar section on the list page and replace it with a "see" template, but the bots usually revert me when I try to "remove" text like that. Good work! 67.175.176.178 (talk) 04:52, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Greyhawk deities

By the way, Greyhawk deities is outstanding if I haven't said so already. :) Not perfect, but miles better than where it was. That edition-by-edition out-of-universe breakdown is exactly what I've been looking for for all D&D articles. BOZ (talk) 11:42, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

I do recall Gygax talking about the origins of various monsters, I'll see if I can find it. Re "Deities", no it's not perfect, but I thought this new outline gives a better starting place for improvements. Guinness323 (talk) 13:11, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

The format is a big improvement, over a spawling list that doesn't really tell you anything, so I'll take it. :) I've been advocating the "present the information in publication history order" for some time now, and I'd like to eventually get everything in line with that. As for the mimic, I did find a brief mention in White Dwarf and added it, so if you are able to find a little bit more, I think that would make it a solid case to avoid deletion (as it is, I think it's unlikely to be deleted).BOZ (talk) 19:36, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

Nice job on Pholtus; I think I'll hold off on merging that one. Are there any others you have some out-of-universe/development info that you are looking to add? When I get to merging more (maybe later today), I'm starting with those which are not particularly important to the setting, and/or have appeared very few times (generally, those added to the setting after Gygax left TSR). Any articles that you can make respectable, I will leave in peace. :) No rush though, I'm not in any hurry. BOZ (talk) 15:13, 17 September 2009 (UTC)

I don't have a set plan, mainly due to my current workload, but I have a vague idea about going through the various Greyhawk gods and other related articles and adding similar material, since I have been kind of immersed in Greyhawkiana for about 6 months. If you have any you would like prioritized, let me know. Guinness323 (talk) 20:55, 17 September 2009 (UTC)

No priority at all! Work on whatever you feel you want to hit up. If something gets merged in somewhere and you want to expand it, we can always unmerge it. If you come across something which has been deleted, I can restore it if you are able to provide some good sourced material for it. BOZ (talk) 22:09, 17 September 2009 (UTC)

Bulette

Fantastic work, thanks! I was going to mention this one to you to see if you could get in some cleanup work, but my memory is as faulty as ever; keep in mind that also the blink dog is in a similar predicament. BOZ (talk) 12:24, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

I should be able to do some work on 2nd, 3rd 3.5 and 4E bulettes later today. Blink dog may be more of a problem, I will finish bulette then take a look at it. Guinness323 (talk) 17:09, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

Mordenkainen

You might want to take a look and make sure that nothing critical was lost in this overhaul[1] - the user seems to be working in good faith, so take a close look before changing anything back. BOZ (talk) 23:37, 21 September 2011 (UTC)

Same thing goes for Iggwilv[2]. BOZ (talk) 16:04, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for alerting me. Took a quick look at Mordenkainen and the edits seem to be mainly copy-editing for style. However, some good material seems to have been excised--I will look at that and see if it needs to be replaced. I'll also check out Iggwilv as well. Guinness323 (talk) 16:37, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

No problem - just giving you a heads up!  :) BOZ (talk) 17:36, 12 October 2011 (UTC)

Sorry for my lack of work on this. Started college in September. It's been a few years since my undergrad days, and the re-learning curve about how to learn has been steep. Guinness323 (talk) 17:55, 12 October 2011 (UTC)

Palace of the Silver Princess

I re-found an old source and used it in the article. :) BOZ (talk) 19:39, 5 May 2012 (UTC)

D&D monster list

Dwarf (Dungeons & Dragons)

Hey there. :) Take a look and see if there's anything you can do to help improve this article. BOZ (talk) 03:59, 1 October 2012 (UTC)

Sunndi

I would note that several other articles are being looked at in a similar manner to this one; you have proven before that you have been able to find some sources for articles like this. Do you have the time to see what you can find? BOZ (talk) 19:53, 20 June 2017 (UTC)

• Alas, not a great time (in the middle of a transcontinental move) but I'll do what I can. Can you suggest articles that are likely going to be targeted for deletion? Guinness323 (talk) 17:54, 21 June 2017 (UTC)

There are many, unfortunately. BOZ (talk) 20:11, 21 June 2017 (UTC)

Book of Exalted Deeds

Thanks for adding reviews, feel free to deprod it now. It needs an AfD (if at all, I am not sure if I feel like nominating it given the reviews you found). --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 05:27, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
