Added a whole bunch of flavor lore and history. Removed the units stats from previous games, since this is a lore page so its not relevant here, and I do believe there is another page for that. --Korgo 05:19, 26 December 2006 (EST)

Fine, provided that this flavor lore is citable.--Ragestorm, Head Bookkeeper 09:14, 26 December 2006 (EST)
That's fair enough, most of it is just taken directly from what is demonstrated in the game or stated on the offical WoW site. Although admittedly I winged a bit of the Blood Elf priest lore, I know they drained the Light energies of a Naaru, but the actual philosophies and beliefs of the Blood Elf priesthood I'm not entirely sure of. I just tried to make sense out of what they'd be from the limited info we have to work with at the moment. Think I should I remove it?--Korgo 16:36, 26 December 2006 (EST)
Anything gained from observations of players in-game must be removed. Unless your conclusion as to their beliefs can be backed up by lore, it should be removed.--Ragestorm, Head Bookkeeper 18:59, 26 December 2006 (EST)
Alright most statements can still be backed up by lore, I just removed the things I felt weren't backed up officially by lore including my opinion on Blood Elf priests. If there is anything else that doesn't seem right though, let me know and feel free to change/delete. I am still sort of new at wikis. --Korgo 19:47, 26 December 2006 (EST)

Then be warned- this is no usual wiki. Particularly when it comes to lore.--Ragestorm, Head Bookkeeper 23:10, 26 December 2006 (EST)

Priest or paladin?

Which one, according to lore, is the holier of the two? Preists can use Shadow magic while Paladns can't, but since the end of the second war Death Knights have been made up exclusively by fallen Paladins, so I can't make the call for myself. This question has been bugging me for a long time, and I figured this is the best place to get a question like this answered.--TheLightbringer 1:17, 31 January 2007 (EST)

That's sort of like asking which moon is prettier, or which capital looks nicer. Shadow priests are probably in the service of darker (or at least more neutral) gods than other priests or paladins- this doesn't make them less holy, as the shadow would be holy to them (for Night elves, it's just another facet of Elune, and doesn't the Light cast Shadows?). Just because Paladins can fall doesn't really mean they will fall. When the gods fall silent, their faith is tested, and the true paladins shall stand strong. Just because some (humans) fall prey to human nature, doesn't make the calling less holy. --Ragestorm (talk · contr) 08:45, 31 January 2007 (EST)

Blood elves

What's the source for the priests getting their power from the same source as the Blood Knights? --Ragestorm (talk · contr) 13:27, 13 February 2007 (EST)

Please forgive me, that was me confusing the paladin lore with priest lore, its been corrected. Korgo 14:41, 13 February 2007 (EST)
