Talk:Titanic watcher

Is the word "titanic" ever used in describing them, or was that added to disambiguate them?--SWM2448 18:46, March 21, 2010 (UTC)

It's used to separate them from the other watchers. -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 21:32, March 21, 2010 (UTC)

The purpose of this page

The entire purpose of this page was originally to have a place for the group of "watchers" around Ulduar, of which it is not known whether or not they are titans or titanic constructs. Before that, this was a part of the Watcher page, but it was split and disambiguated. The name it was split to could easily been "Watcher (titanic)" or "Keeper (titanic)" or something like that. The term used was somewhat arbitrary (see above). Now, I see several titanic things with "watcher" in their names listed on this page. If a "watcher" does not have confusing godlike power, there is a place for it: Stone watcher. Now, I was actually planning for the possible deletion of this page, when I saw something that Ashbear160 pointed out actually made it to live: Ironaya is "a Titanic Watcher."[1] The term was made canon after this page came into being, but it is canon none the less.--SWM2448 01:27, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

Sometimes I feel we influence Blizzard too much xDDD.--Lon-ami (talk) 10:29, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

It may not have been the fault of Wowpedia or its predecessor. However, this formerly speculative category has at least one cite-able member now, unless Ironaya is only a "Watcher" that is "Titanic." The naming convention is consistent with some other proper names for Blizzard entities, so it may not be purely descriptive, but it might be.--SWM2448 21:34, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

Update:Moved from "Titanic watcher" to "Watcher (titanic)".--SWM2448 23:20, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

Why do that when we have "Titanic Watcher" in-game? :S--Lon-ami (talk) 12:24, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Only one entity can be (retroactively) cited as a "Titanic Watcher". The rest are just "Watchers" and sometimes "Keepers".--SWM2448 18:28, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
