Talk:Kallista Eris

Category is missing. --Inquisitor S., Großmeister des Ordo Lexicanum 22:56, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

3rd paragraph in the history section appears incorrect. The description of events proposing Eris and T'Kal went on a day trip together sounds like the events that happened to Camille Shivani. I am looking for the ok to do a big edit here. --Sanguinarius 23:25, 22 February 2012 (CET)

Get the chapter numbers right next time! --DetlefK 19:24, 29 February 2012 (CET)

You will note that over a week ago I wrote about how inaccurate the bulk of this article was. You appeared not to bother making an effort to correct it until after I spent the time making the corrections. You then write this? You are an admin for this site? The majority of what you seem to have an issue with has been there since August 2010 --Sanguinarius 00:42, 1 March 2012 (CET)

Hello! DetlefK is indeed an admin for the site (though I believe he mainly works on the German site and his contribs to the Enlish lexi are generally as an admin rather than a writer). I'll try and be a neutral voice here -

• The only real change of info between your version and Detlef's was to the "Expanded Relevance" section (and the change of a chapter number). I would assume this is because this section deals with implied or suggested meanings from the source text - this is always difficult terrain for the Lexi as, by definition, it relies on personal interpretation and cant be sourced. I would guess that this is why this section was cut down to a very brief summary.
• Detlef's "making up quotes! burn that heretic on the pyre!" comment seems rather un-neccesary (and a little confusing), particularly given the good work you have done to clear up this article.

I would hazard a guess that this reaction was possibly due to the fact that the material in question concerns the Blood Ravens - there has been a long history here of Blood Ravens articles becoming full of fan theories and people putting implied meanings down as fact (so much so that the Blood Ravens page has had to be protected from edits by anyone other than admins).

I appreciate the input. I am also trying to keep in mind that inflexion is absent in these writings as well as taking into account the writer was a non native english writer. That being said, I still point out that one a week ago I brought up my issues with this article, which included the expanded relevance section in it's entirety as I don't believe I performed any edits on that section. It has appeared like that since August 2010. If that section was in error, it was not my error and it has been present on the site for over 18 months. --Sanguinarius 02:23, 1 March 2012 (CET)

I'm 100% in agreement with you really - my above post was really just a guess at why edits may have been made. keep up the good work. The Lemur 02:27, 1 March 2012 (CET)

I'm sorry, if I insulted anybody. I work in the german Lexicanum as an admin every day and as a contributor whenever I have spare time and feel like it. I only come to the english Lexicanum as part of my extended admin duties.
@Sanguinarius: I was agitated about the (then to me unknown) author who messed up the Blood Ravens-connection, not about you. That agitation spilled into my note above, making it unnecessarily hostile. Taking my note on the discussion-page into account, I see in hindsight how the comedic intention of the "making up quotes! burn that heretic on the pyre!"-comment got lost.
Summary: I accidently turned a note for better accuracy into an agressive comment. My apologies for that.
And now get back to work: You get no salary if you fail your quota. --DetlefK 11:16, 1 March 2012 (CET)

I sincerely appreciate your reply. Thank you and will do. --Sanguinarius 15:36, 1 March 2012 (CET)
