EPTWe've started adding a broadcasts section for casters so now you can see which event did say, ODPixel cast.
Also we've added Tournament series so it's easier to add events to the caster's page.

The downside to this security blanket is obviously that it does take time for your contributions to be reviewed and then displayed. I would say that this approach allows you to seek out constructive criticism. Say that you see the same editor reviewing your pages you can reach out to them and ask them if they have any feedback on your edits. (Or if you look at the pages after they've been reviewed if the person reviewing them did any edits of their own to correct or change anything about what you did.) Both these things can help you grow much quicker in your wiki contributing skills. | ||

Both these things can help you grow much quicker in your wiki contributing skills. Of course. I'm currently slowly learning as I go and becoming an 'editor' is not a priority, what's more important for me is to produce articles to the liquidpedia page in a way that readers want to find about a person, team or anything dota related and feel satisifed from reading it. So far it's been a good journey as I've been getting help from the Liquidpedia staff from the IRC chat and making PM's about a question I don't know. I still have lots to learn and feedback is one of the most important voices in a person's career., I've been noting the feedback from other staff and it has helped me well to become a better contributor and further develop my skills contributing to the liquidpedia page. | ||

But sure more work on heroes is not a bad thing. We also need player and team histories written out more, not just for the absolute top teams and top players. But so there's something to read (prose) on all of the potential wild card teams. Cosmetic items and sets could also be worked on. | ||

 Evil Geniuses has no history, Natus Vincere and has very little history, OG, EHOME, and Team Secret have no citations and very little history, Vici Gaming needs to be divided into sections / organized, Newbee has no citations, etc. Even something as simple as If you want to write about your favorite team, chances are it won't go unappreciated. Just try to stay concise and make sure to cite what you say.  | ||

1. Can I add a legacy/controversy sub section in a player's or team page if they reach retirement? What I mean is that generally most team and player pages have a biography, Dota 2 career etc. If one has made great impact to the game can I add a legacy or a controversy section? 2. What makes a caster/observer/production crew be featured in a Dota 2 tournament liquidpedia page? Do they have to cast on the main stage or any event? Does the group stage of a premier event/major event count? 3. If there are local tournaments in my area, am I able to make a tournament page out of it? They are not big at all, but it's something that I wish to do. 4. How am I going so far? Any mistakes or things I shouldn't be doing? Thanks aeth | ||

2. Usually we have people there that work important events. If you work TI or a Dota Major, you can probably have a page. If you work something similarly big as EPICENTER or DAC, we can probably talk about that. We are talking about Onscreen-talent and observers here though, not about cameramen. 3. Usually we have a limit of at least 50$ on SC2. For a 5 player team we can probably go with 200$. So if the prize pool of the tournament exceeds that, feel free to add a page. We only count cash prizes though, no hardware or the likes. 4. I am not the most active in the Dota wiki, but if you were horrible i probably would have heard about you, so most likely you are doing fine If you are looking for more detailed feedback, feel free to visit our chat at http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=#liquipedia The people there won't bite and enjoy chilling there and having fun together, as well as helping people edit the wiki. | ||

Thanks aeth I've seen you around a bit, so I'll just quickly add to what FO said: - First, THANK YOU for adding written content with cited sources. - You should be a bit more careful about making broad statements. For example, statements such as "Purge is widely accredited for his contribution to the growth and success of Dota 2." should not be made without at least one citation showing a significant observer crediting him for this. - Minor thing: The first mention of the article's title is bolded (For players, it's also put in quotation marks.), future mentions are plain text. You don't need to bold the player's name or put brackets around it or anything like that in future mentions. - That said, especially with written content, even flawed additions help. The first step is the most difficult; it's easier to correct things than it is to add them. If you want to improve, one of the best ways to do so is to pay attention to what other users do to the page after you edit it. I spent most of my first edits doing things 50% correct at best then trying to figure out how tehh4ck3r was fixing them (That's what many of my current edits are too, only maybe closer to 75%  ). | ||
