So... what's the story with renaming all the spells? Are we gonna update each class as time permits, or leave the old spell names, or what? I've noticed some spell info pages no longer read App 1, App 4, Adept 1, etc etc, so I'm wondering if there's a time table to update the spell names. -- Mysterious drake 00:46, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Also, can someone remind me an easier way (if there is one) to go about doing the renamings? I'd like to get hoofing on the Templar spells sooner or later if that's the idea. /grin -- Mysterious drake 00:52, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Have at it. I've been starting on the Warden ones, those might be the ones you're seeing. When you rename them, be sure to convert them to the SpellInformation2 template (you can subst it in via {{subst:SIx}} and use SpellEffectsLine2 and SpellEffectsBottom2 instead of the old versions. There is no timeline per-se, its however fast people can get them done. Oh, and when you move them you can tag the old redirect with {{AfD}} so the old names can get deleted. Oh, and update the class page. It's a lot to do, hehe ;) -- lordebon 01:53, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

How do I tag the old redirect with AfD? Specifically how do I update the redirect page? Thanks. -- SapphoTroub 22:37, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Just add the following code to the end of the redirect page: {{AfD|Spell redirect leftover after GU52}} -- lordebon 23:34, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
