:I don't entirely agree, Callek. While we are a small community and it ''might'' take a little while to get an answer, I think it's not only appropriate to ask specific content-related questions on talk pages, IMO that's the primary function of an article talk page. That's not to say your advice to seek the answer elsewhere wasn't good--but I don't think it's a matter of choosing. BTW I know the answer to the horse question, and have inserted it into the article ;) --[[User:Farman|Farman]] 12:05, 20 December 2007 (CST) |

Welcome
Welcome to Elanthipedia! Please have a look at our help section for a quick reference on how to get started. If you need anything please leave a note at the Town Green or contact any administrator by clicking on their name on the Elanthipedia:Administrators page. You may also feel free to leave a note on my talk page, or via AIM at EmpathNaeya.
Thanks! Yeah, learning the ropes I already broke something but I fixed it. ^^; I have a lot of information on the Sorrow War, even if most of it is from memory now. My old Compy asploded so my logs are gone. I hope I can be of some help. --Kittn 11:24, 19 December 2007 (CST)
Horse
While I do not know the answer, the Talk pages here are mostly for discussions regarding how to handle the articles, (though the note that it may need updating is perfectly valid). Because of that, you are unlikely to find someone who can answer that question in any reasonable sense of time.
Might I suggest you use either the "World Of Elanthia" Forums or the official forums (one of the specific suggested categories Mounts - General Discussions or Mounts - Bugs).
Thanks for using Elanthipedia, and once you find your answer, feel free to edit the Horses article with the update. It would be appreciated by all future users of that Article! --Callek 21:14, 19 December 2007 (CST)
