Post subject:  [Business]Edit Ellia's dossier?

Ellia has been brought into the fold of the Dominia Cabal. This much is set as fact at this point and has been decided by the majority of voting M:EMbers.

My only question is how to link that information to the dossier. Should some of the information from the data sheet for the Dominia Cabal be added to the dossier? Will a link to said data sheet under her "Appears in" section suffice? Is there another solution someone has to this?

Yeah, it mightn't be a bad idea, particularly because we now know that she, at one time, had a daughter, which we did not know beforehand. And Ellia's dossier is a little light, anyway.

I'm in agreement with adding the new information. Her current dossier was basically just her post mending survival method and hints that she had a long and destructive past.

In fairness, we actually have several profiles that might benefit from an update.
I wouldn't want to put that all on one person though, so maybe a group consensus might be a good thing to establish first.

I'm quite behind re:The Dominia Cabal. How many established characters besides Ellia did you guys use for it?

Either way, personally, I think adding a link to the Domina Data page under Ellia's "Appears in" section would suffice for our purposes.

Ellia is the only established character in the Cabal. Zhiran is tangentially involved, and there's one little note that Raiker Venn knows about it, although that was from a translated history he wrote, so that might have been from much later. We don't know.

I believe that's it, though.

Well, Zhiran, for example probably needs a bump.
Still, I wasn't talking about just the Cabal. There's a few others that I've gone searching for in the past couple of weeks that were... a bit thin.

Admittedly, one of them was for my own character, since Alessa got two new stories in. I honestly just like to see the synopsis people come up for those stories.

Okay, then I just misunderstood, then.

However, I think that Ellia's involvement in the Cabal has more impact to her character than updating another planeswalker's dossier with information from stories added after their establishment, because it's much closer to a retcon. It puts Ellia at a point in the past that would (theoretically, at least) affect her in our present. I do not believe we have other characters that need a dossier update the same way she does.

Synopses for stories is part of the advantage of the wiki. we don't really need to add synopses in their dossiers because the stories will have their own synopses elsewhere. Personally, I think we are currently too small a group to worry about having all the things laid out perfectly.

Well remember that the standard page format for the Wiki includes an Ongoing Storyline section. Maybe this information belongs there?
