Guild:The Wings Of A Dove[edit]
Please do not remove the guild cleanup tag that was placed on your guild page, it was added because the page does not conform with our guild page policy / guild page guidelines. The Official Guild Wars Wiki is NOT a guild message board. As mentioned on the talk page it is only meant to document the existence of a guild and to provide in-game contacts or external links that lead to further information. Please don't use it as a gathering place for guild members and remove all the irrelevant info. --Kakarot 03:06, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

Let me quote: "If the article is modified to meet our standards before this time then please remove this template."
I modified this personally to include important information about the guild events and members, and therefore removed the tag, just as is stated in the tag itself.
If you can, please show me how the page contains any irrelevant information. It contains meeting dates, recruiting info, leader and officer info - boxes for classes and dungeons, an alliance area, as well as a major event that took place with our guild members.
Where exactly did we make this a message board, and what irrelevant information is shown there? Mrathee 04:06, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
- There are still a few items that really aren't meant to be kept on a GWW Guild article. The Guild Announcements, Guilds Savings and the Guild Birthdays all belong on your guilds website since those aren't the kind of thing these articles are meant to document. The table containing what hall each guild in your alliance isn't necessary since each guild already should contain which guild hall they use inside the infobox. The last few items, the armor/skills/unique items box, the dungeons box and the skill list box aren't even guild related so I'm not sure why they were included. Also before removing the cleanup template it is usually best to leave a message on the guilds talk page asking if the article is up to standards. My message above was partially copied from the original cleanup tag; please note there have now been a total of five times it has been added to your guild page; so the message board part might no longer apply although things like Guild Announcements could be grouped into that since it usually changes on a regular basis and lets Guild members know about events like meetings. Hopefully that answered your question but you may want to add a message to the talk page of your guild in response to the messages there in particular the A few comments section. --Kakarot 04:25, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
- I would like to add that if you are part of an alliance, you should be using the alliance navigation bar to list them rather than the generic table. It will automatically link to guild pages that any of them have established. You can find the template code for it here.-- Wynthyst 04:33, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
