== Unimporting WoB ==
Hey Stargazer,
I am just writing to inquire if there is a way to unimport/delete/revert imported wob's so they go back to the old format with a red link below them. I am wondering as a great deal of wob's that were solely linked to my draft space were imported and I was keeping them unimported purposefully for the sake of organisation.--[[User:Debarra|Debarra]] ([[User talk:Debarra|talk]]) 17:19, 6 December 2022 (UTC)
: Hi Debarra! Yeah, I think that's reasonable and also conveniently eliminates the need to patrol 231 new pages. <span class="plainlinks">[{{canonicalurl:Special:Log}}?type=delete&user=Stargazer&wpdate=2022-12-06&limit=231 Done]</span>. --[[User:Stargazer|Stargazer]] ([[User talk:Stargazer|talk]]) 17:54, 6 December 2022 (UTC)

== Suggested Edit to Atium ==
Hi there,
I believe a small edit is warranted on the Atium page and I guess I'm asking you to make it since the page is protected :) The page currently contradicts itself within two sentences: "Atium cannot be combined with lerasium to make ettmetal, <i>nor can ettmetal be broken down into atium and lerasium</i>. While it would not be possible to get atium and lerasium from ettmetal through distillation or other mundane methods, it is possible through other methods." The section I've bolded is incorrect given recent events in certain recent books ;) & the sentence that follows it provides a more accurate description. Thanks for your help editing accordingly; sorry to have to ask! [[User:Knives182|Knives182]] ([[User talk:Knives182|talk]]) 04:19, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
: Hi [[User:Knives182|Knives182]]! That's a good catch; I've updated the page accordingly! --[[User:Stargazer|Stargazer]] ([[User talk:Stargazer|talk]]) 04:38, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
== Placement of information of Ghostbloods ==
I am personally of the strong belief that they should be placed before the True Desolation section, due to the fact that the Ghostbloods had a major cosmere-wide role *before* there fight against the Set, and were involved in the True Desolation. I feel it is weird to mention their formation as an afterthought in a section after they played a role, and I don't see any reason to do it like that. It just makes no sense chronologically, or in terms of formatting. It would be sort of like waiting till the Trell section to mention Sazed became Harmony, it is just, really out-of-order. It is why I repeatedly placed it in the Catacendre section, because it is the important cosmere event that happens after the Catacendre but long before the True Desolation, and I am just curious why you keep moving it.

: So, I have a couple thoughts on the subject. One is that I don't think the founding of a worldhopping group is, by itself, likely to be so significant as to merit mentioning in the History section of the cosmere page—for example, we don't mention the existence of the Ire, say, around the paragraph on the Splintering of Devotion and Dominion, even though they are later relevant in the Ascension of Harmony subsection. The fact that the creation of the Ghostbloods helped bring Autonomy's influence to Scadrial, however, adds a little more relevance and also pretty strongly counsels in favor of placing that mention of their creation together with the information about Trell. Another consideration is that, while the Ghostbloods are active on Roshar during the True Desolation, they haven't done anything significant enough to merit mentioning in the True Desolation subsection, so there's no real need for them to be established for that section. Beyond that, it also keeps the Ascension of Harmony/the end of Era 1 as the cutoff for the subsection titled, well, "The Ascension of Harmony." As long as we're grouping events by world/series (and I think that's the best way to organize the section, at least until we get to events in the space age), there's probably always going to be some fuzziness around chronology in the History section.
