Mr. Moose, for minor typos like this:

Rostnsthal included, no on in the cabin has any answers as to what they player heard, but unwilling to accept this, they decide to head above decks and see if anyone there knows anything.

Do you just want it pointed out here (or in the new awesome Loremonger GE sub-forum that is about to exist, no doubt), or am I good to go in brandishing my newly-farmed e and make the edit myself?

I'd love to help with the Loremuncher wiki, as my FFXIV experience has been so greatly enhanced by this thread (btw I now believe that ARR takes place wholly within an echo thanks to the incredible echo paranoia you've given me), but I doubt I can do much to help aside from dropping 'e's (not like that) as I have incredibly poor perception as to stuff going on in the game, despite trying to watch and read it all.

I have it on good authority that a loregasm is what is experienced following the dropping of a lore bomb.

Thanks for the clarification. Mrs. Mjollnir will be incredibly grateful of my new knowledge, I'm sure!

I am not familliar with it, but I can learn.

I am not well versed in wiki markup, but can easily read up and learn it.

In that case, I'll take a little break from prepwork and hammer together a little guide for building your own articles and start adding my most oft-used code into a single reference page. The first drafts are at the bottom of the How to Loremonger page; currently just first draft crash courses. In the meantime, I'm sure you'll be able to deduce how most things work just by looking at the code of a finished page and monkeying around with it. If you make a sandbox in your own userspace, you can experiment all you want without fear of messing anything up. When I first learn how to use something, I just take it to a sandbox and start trial and erroring the hell out of it until I understand what it does.

... you might want to distinguish the elezens as "male elezen" and "female elezen"

Good call. Added to mah to-dos.

... for minor typos ... am I good to go ... and make the edit myself?

Absolutely. A good rule of thumb is that if the meaning of nothing has been changed and only a simple error has been corrected, such as typos or broken code, have at it. Everything is done on that Shapeless Melody page except the proofreading and polish and I keep getting distracted by other prep work :P

You don't have to stop your prepwork. I'm sure there's enough guides out there on how to code wiki pages. I usually learn "sandbox" style too xD Learned HTML and PHP that way >.>
