Title: Wikipedia articles concerning Brandon's books.
Post by: Nightfire107 on June 06, 2010, 11:12:30 PM: Okay so I have looked at the wikipedia articles relating to Brandon's books and the majority of them are lacking. There are no plot summerys and most of the information contained therine feels disjointed. I am not that good at summery or informational descriptions (I think the small bit I contributed to atium was heavily edited) but I think that someone should go in and do a major re-vamp and overhaul of the the wikipedia articles. Just a thought.

In the interest of not shamelessly plugging: yes, those Wikipedia articles are pretty atrocious. They lack depth.

lol. Sorry guys, I was gone all weekend in SLC at pride. =D

I guess I can probably take a look at them though, and well . . . I guess make a Wikipedia account and change some stuff.
