Redundant articles[edit]

Please stop creating redundant articles. When two articles say the same things, it's a waste of people's time. Your The Winged-Elves are...‎ article was a poor copy of the Winged Elves article, and your new Cleric For Life is basically a bad version of the Cleric article. If you have something useful to add to an existing article, please do that instead of creating a copy of an existing one.
Also, your articles do not follow the Wiki Style Guide. For example, for section headings, instead of using the "==Title==" format for sections, you use an indented link format, which just leads to a bunch of ugly broken links. Also, you are making various spelling, punctuation, and grammar mistakes that should be easy to avoid. For example, punctuation should usually have a space after it. Please check your work before posting it. Finally, you should not sign articles. Articles can be edited by anyone, so if everyone who edited an article signed it, the bottom of the article would become a mess. Doing that is also pointless since anyone can see who edited a page by looking at the edit history. Please, only sign talk page comments, not articles.
While useful contributions to the wiki are appreciated, simply adding broken and poorly written versions of existing content is not. If you want to add articles, please look for something that has not been written about yet. Thank you. -- Sangodoc - PWI wiki mod (talk) 20:38, 4 February 2012 (PST)

The two articles you created earlier have been deleted for the reasons discussed above, and your new What Its All About article is likely going to be deleted as well. When writing an article it should not only not be redundant to other articles, but it should be of some use to the people reading it. The wiki is not the place for reviewing how good/bad the game is, it is for passing on useful information about how to do things in the game. And not vague or generalized things either, but specific steps. For example, "You first customize first to play,put in a name and click START below your character." In that sentence you wrote "first" twice, missed a space after the comma, and told the reader absolutely nothing about how or where to do any of those things. This is not worthwhile content for the wiki. If you want to write an article for the wiki, please, take a look at some of the existing articles in the wiki to get an idea of how a proper article should look.
