UESP Forums

I noticed the Tamriel section of the Wiki was renamed Lore; any ideas why?

I noticed that too. I'm not sure why it was changed though.

Because the lore is not only about Tamriel probably

“Remember, remember the fifth of November,
The gunpowder, treason and plot,
I know of no reason
Why the gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot.”

everytime i see that picture, that pops in my head.


I noticed that last week, when i went to click on Oblivion and it wasnt down at the bottom of the list, took me about 10 mins to find that it had been moved up the list.

Me too.

I expect some people complained about titles like Tamriel: Akavir, and Tamriel: Nirn, as if they are part of Tamriel.

There is usually a good source of info about what is going on with the wiki on this page. http://www.uesp.net/wiki/UESPWiki:Community_Portal

I check it out much more often since I became a mod.

Thanks for the link; it seems I did not check that page.

The Tamriel->Lore move was discussed in detail here: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/UESPWiki:Names ... ve_Project but the basic reason was indeed that Tamriel:Akavir and several other articles didn't make sense.

I figured that the main reason was because most people thought that "Tamriel" was simply another game and not a section on lore.

Also, if you google "Elder Scrolls Lore", UESP did not even show on the first page.

That's ridiculous! Everybody knows the UESP is the most lore-stuffed site known to man.
