User talk:Hagrin Frost-Eye

Welcome!Edit

Hello Hagrin Frost-Eye! Welcome to UESPWiki! It's always good to have new members. If you would like to help improve any of our pages, you may want to take a look at the following links:

• Quick Editing Guide: a quick guide to wiki markup
• Getting Started: how you can help
• Help Contents: a list of in-depth Help pages
• Policies and Guidelines: UESPWiki standards and expectations
• Uploading Images: guidelines on image standardization

If you would like to spice up your user page, browse a list of userboxes you can use, including a guide to making your own.

When you're editing, it's always a good idea to leave edit summaries to explain the changes you have made to a particular page, and remember to sign your talk page posts with four tildes ~~~~. Also, the "show preview" button is a great way to view the changes you've made so far without actually saving the page (our patrollers really appreciate it!).

Feel free to practice editing in the sandbox. If you would like to discuss the games or lore, consider checking out our Discord, forums, or blog. If you need any help, don't hesitate to contact one of our mentors. Lastly, thanks once again for joining the UESPWiki, and have fun! — Wolfborn^(Howl) 22:54, 21 December 2024 (UTC)

Licensing of Image UploadsEdit

Hey there! Thanks for your contributions to the wiki so far. I just wanted to check on the copyright license for images which you have uploaded from legalalien. That website is a privately-owned website; it isn't a "website owned by Bethesda Softworks" and therefore the Fair Use license doesn't apply. We therefore need to check what permissions we do have to upload those images here. Could you please confirm whether you have contacted Hugh Riley to ask whether we can re-use those images here? Thanks! — Wolfborn^(Howl) 23:12, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

Ah no, I have not been in contact with Hugh Riley, I apologize for the mistake. Since his website is up, I imagine it could be possible to ask him. I uploaded these as I noticed that the chest armor texture was uploaded here by an established user about a year ago, so perhaps they were/are able to contact Mr. Riley for permission.

Another Welcome!Edit

Hi there and welcome! Thanks for all the great contributions so far! You're doing a great job at preserving obscure TES media and just wanted to say it's great to have all those pre-release images on the wiki. I know I keep moving them around but it's because of strange placement more than anything. I also wanted to ask where are you getting some of the concept art in such high quality? -Tarponpet (talk) 03:35, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Hey thanks Tarponpet, I'm happy to help out! Feel free to continue to adjust my formatting as needed, It's fantastic to make our contributions are as good as they can be. I've been doing quite a bit of trawling through the internet archives and have been able to find quite a lot of goodies that haven't been archived here yet. I specifically found the concept art for Morrowind on archives of the official French and German sites for the game, morrowind-fr.com, and morrowind.de from back in Morrowind's hey-day. This old official listing of TES websites and fan-sites on the Internet Archive has been a big help in my contributions, if you'd like to take a dive yourself!

If you don't mind me asking, are you on Discord or any other messaging platform? -Tarponpet (talk) 00:03, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

No problem at all, I am slightly active on discord, and I've seen you active on some of the UESP discord channels from time to time, so I'll be able to send you a private message here shortly. Hagrin Frost-Eye (talk) 00:09, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

Thank you! Look forward to it. -Tarponpet (talk) 00:29, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

Pre-Release ScreenshotsEdit

Nice job with all the archival work you've been doing! I noticed you've been adding a lot of pre-release promotional screenshots to different gamespace and lore articles. Generally, we try to use UESP screenshots taken in-game rather than pre-release material. Great to have those images on Morrowind:Screenshots, but per our image standards they're not ideal for use on other articles. —⁠Legoless (talk) 11:57, 28 February 2025 (UTC)

Thank you, Legoless! I'm more than happy to help the UESP after its been there for me for so many years. I appreciate you reaching out and giving me a heads up. I plan to only include a limited selection of these pre-release images in relevant articles and topics. Images with UI elements will not be added in game or lore articles, and further images I add will showcase something interesting/relevant to the lore/game, such as enemies appearing to work together in combat, or a passenger boarding a Silt Strider, for example. I also noticed you adjusted the images I added on the Raven Rock pages to accurately caption them as pre-release images. Thank you for doing this, and I will do it as well going forward.

I'm still pretty new to editing for the UESP, so feel free to give me additional guidance for these images if needed, and I can adjust! Thank you. Hagrin Frost-Eye (talk) 16:17, 28 February 2025 (UTC)
