Revision as of 04:39, 8 May 2013
You just love copy-pasting stuff, don't you? Prof. Torr (talk) 01:28, 7 May 2013 (CEST)
Problems that need to be addressed asap:
- The title must be changed. The word "noob" is highly offensive, especially when written LIKE THAT IN ALL CAPS, so it needs to be scraped, and the author of the guide need not be named in the title of the article either.
- The permission (preferably in writing) of the author of the original guide should be obtained to reproduce said guide here.
- Both the red links need to be removed from the article. Prof. Torr (talk) 01:40, 7 May 2013 (CEST)
