Blood of Elves
So far my coverage of that book is still a bit scant, so since you will be starting it shortly ... keep a notepad handy ;) ... also, it's always worth verifying that i have not added complete bullshit. :D In particular, quotes which pertain to monster description, as well as people and places are most welcome additions — Game widow 09:35, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

New templates
I've created a template which allows for either or both US and UK quotations for your use, the vampire entry shows it in use. — Game widow 11:45, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

And another template then (Template:Bestiary), to make your search and replace efforts a bit easier ... example used on the Alp page. This way, if you change your mind halfway through about the format, you only need to change the template and all the pages using it will automagically update — Game widow 17:57, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
 * hi there! i had to change the bestiary template to remove the "===". There are two reasons for this: firstly, the section is not always at the same depth, so more or fewer equal signs are required on various pages, and secondly, with the equal signs included, you could no longer edit the contents of the section ... by far the more important reason. — Game widow 14:47, September 2, 2009 (UTC)

Wiki expertise
For tables, basically all you need is this:
 *  {|  – this begins the table (without any border, etc)
 *  |-  – this lets you set any table-wide options (if you want any) and begins a new line in the table, if you want a header, use a "+" sign instead of the "-" sign
 *  !  – these are column headers
 *  |  – this is one field on the line, each new field begins with that vertical bar, or to separate fields and not change lines, use 2 vertical bars
 *  |}  – this ends your table

A reasonably complex, but understandable example would be the Potions tables Additonally, there is a "class" of table used on this wiki "sorttable" (the 2 Ts are NOT a typo) which is dealt with via the Hydradark.js file, but allows some nice sorting options, so to use that, you simply add  on the first line (the one with the curly brace, followed the vertical bar) — Game widow 19:47, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
