Hello Team saint lucia, and thank you for your contributions to RuneScape weaponry, part of the RuneScape series. Whilst your edits are greatly appreciated, they have had to be changed, as they went into too much detail about the subject! Such a level of detail, that requires that a reader be a player of RuneScape, is outside of Wikipedia's mandate and is often called "Fancruft" by other editors. Some articles, some in the RuneScape series, some not, have even been deleted on the grounds of containing too much Fancruft. It is important to remember that: Wikipedia is not a game guide. all content must be of a neutral point of view. all content must be verifiable. The RuneScape pages are not written for players; they are written for those who may know nothing at all about RuneScape. In short, fancruft includes things like: Pricing information Quests and quest rewards Instructions for completing quests Instructions for how to use and perform a skill, for example "to make bronze bars you need 1 tin ore and 1 copper ore" Lengthy, detailed descriptions of items. For that matter, naming items at all. Use a short, very basic description instead, for example, the Abyssal Whip is "a demonic whip". Avoiding Fancruft Instead of giving a specific price (which is subject to change anyway), state, for example, "Runite armour often fetches significant sums of money in RuneScape's marketplaces" Never mention quests, the rewards from quests or anything to do with quests Never mention the different types of equipment or raw material used for a skill Never describe an item in intricate detail, or mention how to obtain it, for example, the Abyssal Whip is "a demonic whip", readers do not need to know that "the abyssal whip comes from abyssal demons which require 85 slayer to kill" Instead, use inline citations, linking to the relevant RuneScape knowledge base article. Please do not be put off by this! The RuneScape pages still need work! Furthermore, your great knowledge of this subject is more than welcome at the RuneScape wiki, a version of Wikipedia revolving around RuneScape, written for players, and where a higher level of detail is used. You may also find it helpful to read: The Welcome page The Introduction to Wikipedia The Five Pillars of Wikipedia How to edit a page Editing tutorial Picture tutorial How to write a great article Naming conventions Manual of Style Feel free to join in the discussion at the main RuneScape page, or at the RuneScape Portal. Happy editing!

Hi sam

To respond to vandalism, use the following on their talk pages:

Do you want to contribute good information, which will stay in articles and be read and enjoyed by many people over time?

Or do you want to add nonsense, which will be quickly reverted and soon forgotten?

Some of us have figured out which is more fun :-). Will you join us? ---go team lucia-------- 20:38, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
