Changes and Options

This vote will deal with whether we keep Allakhazam in the auto-added Elinks templates (Template:Tlink, Template:Tlink, Template:Tlink...). It will be a simple Keep/Remove vote. Manually added Template:Tlink do not count and are always welcome if they fit the policy. The vote is exclusively for the Elinks templates.

Votes

Keep
  1. Keep Reskar 11:37, 9 April 2007 (EDT) - (I find Alla to be useful in some areas as it tends to have a more complete loot list for newer things and user comments are MUCH more useful than the other 2 sites. Significantly less spam/stupid flames.),
  2. Keep User:Tekkub/Sig 22:19, 8 April 2007 (EDT) - (Even though I prefer Wowhead, I do still hit alla up for info from time to time.)
  3. Keep Vysogota T / C 22:55, 8 April 2007 (EDT) - (In most cases Allakhazam has newly discovered drops long before Thott or Wowhead. I use this site a lot.)
  4. Keep User:Psyker7/Sig 22:57, 8 April 2007 (EDT) - (While it is owned somewhere above by IGN, in general their site is a good source of information, and they DO use the correct item id's in all their links.)
  5. Keep Mikk (T) 07:43, 9 April 2007 (EDT) - (There are more people running the allakhazam client than people running the wowhead client. At least for now, allakhazam has much more accurate drop rate readings. Doubly so for lower level areas.)
  6. Keep Shirik 08:01, 9 April 2007 (EDT) - (no comment)
  7. Keep GRYPHONtc 12:13, 9 April 2007 (EDT) - (Can't deny their popularity even if you like other sites better they are still in top 2 for most used site.)
  8. Keep Dracomage 13:28, 9 April 2007 (EDT) - (They provide good pre/sequel links to quests and items.)
Remove
  1. Remove User:Adys/Sig 21:36, 8 April 2007 (EDT) - ()
  2. Remove Normal 22:16, 8 April 2007 (EDT) - (no comment)
  3. Remove Shadow 22:47, 8 April 2007 (EDT) - (no comment)
  4. Remove Sharlin 06:44, 9 April 2007 (EDT) - (was once a great site, not anymore)
  5. Remove Leyritz13 08:02, 9 April 2007 (EDT) - (no comment)

Comments

Abstain: While I personally don't prefer Alla, I hold nothing against it. It dose, however, appear psyker (sp?) missed the note that Thott is now using the correct item ids. ;P--User:Sky2042/Sig 01:36, 9 April 2007 (EDT)

My bad.... Still, alla and thott have been the two constants in wow databases, might remove my thott remove vote. --User:Psyker7/Sig 05:41, 9 April 2007 (EDT)

Changed my vote to keep. Originally, I must admit I was too biased. I grew up on Thott, always used it, never used Allakhazam. After having actually played around with it since voting remove, I have to admit it has some good information. It deserves a second look. Shirik 11:29, 9 April 2007 (EDT)

does anyone know why this vote was initiated in the first place? is have 3 links causing a strain on the system in some way?--Reskar 12:30, 9 April 2007 (EDT)

Some people prefer certain sites and would like to push more traffic toward their favorite. --GRYPHONtc 12:47, 9 April 2007 (EDT)
