Made the part on M'aiq more coherent and read more encyclopedia like, and removed the line "although i kinda like him" or however it went, and clarified some things on his location in Oblivion.

No way does M'Aiq the Liar belong here. Somebody has better make a really good case for him. I'm talking Cochrane and Cicero material here. Temple-Zero 12:34, 7 August 2008 (EDT)
Easter egg, Fourth Wall, references to the speed attribute of players... all this breaks the style guide to no purpose. Typically, I forgot to log in, but consider this my 'Proposed Deletion' prod. Temple-Zero 00:46, 8 August 2008 (EDT)Temple-Zero

[edit] Marukh the Seer

Isn't there grounds for an expansion, and a separate page for Marukh the Seer? Him and his teachings, followers and Alessian Doctrines deserve more exploration, it seems. There are several mentions in books, there's a Marukh's Day in Daggerfall, and perhaps most important, the Alessian Order and the Maruhkati Selective, with the whole Dragon Break thingie ;) If there's someone that wants to write it, TZ perhaps, otherwise I'll see if I can assemble a initial page. --BenouldTC 13:35, 8 August 2008 (EDT)

Marukh is a must, though it's a topic I can't do justice off the top if my head.Temple-Zero 14:36, 8 August 2008 (EDT)

[edit] Obviously wrong information concerning Mynisera's death

I've read the the Daggerfall manual as well, but since the game starts at the 4th of Mornig Star in the year 405 3A and she is still alive, this must be an abrasive mistake made by the developers.In addition, there are quite some other mistakes and false informations in the manual. Regarding this fact I would propose to leave the year of her death open.--PLRDLF 10:41, 30 August 2008 (EDT)

Good point. Serves me right for trusting out-of-game sources :p –RpehTCE 10:55, 30 August 2008 (EDT)

[edit] M'aiq

When I typed M'aiq in in the search bar, it immidiately redirected me to this page. I was looking for the actual article on M'aiq but it wasn't there. What happened? If the search was programmed to redirect here then why wasn't the article on M'aiq ever added? --M'aiq the Liar Talk 20:44, 6 October 2008 (EDT)

He used to be included here. If the search directs here, then good catch.Temple-Zero 21:25, 6 October 2008 (EDT)
The redirects have been put up for deletion. --NepheleTalk 00:16, 7 October 2008 (EDT)

The article used to be included here? He's a major character in two Elder Scrolls games, why is he not here anymore? --M'aiq the Liar Talk 21:51, 8 October 2008 (EDT)

He's not major, I'm afraid. He may be popular but apart from an optional introduction to Boethiah's quest in Morrowind he isn't relevant to either game and certainly doesn't warrant inclusion in the Lore space. –RpehTCE 01:15, 9 October 2008 (EDT)
With the redirects deleted, a search for "M'aiq" will now show you both the Morrowind and Oblivion articles in the results. For this reason, the Tamriel/Lore redirects should not be recreated, as they will cause the search to automatically go there instead. That is, unless we put him back on this page - I'm still not 100% sure that M'aiq doesn't deserve mention here - he is a character that appears in multiple games, and pretty unique in that respect. (The appearing-in-multiple-games criterion is used for other Lore pages, such as Lore:Artifacts, etc. However, if he is mentioned here, it should be extremely brief, just stating something like:
No picture or anything, the links to the two gamespace pages should be enough. --TheRealLurlock Talk 16:47, 15 October 2008 (EDT)

[edit] Mishaxhi

Shouldn't the akaviri commander Mishaxhi be on the People_M as well? As he is the commander of the akaviri forces that faught Reman, I'd say he's very important. The oblivion article on him has almost no lore information what so ever, and he is depicted as an imperial in-game, which make it even worse.Jyggorath 20:28, 5 January 2012 (UTC)

I see no reason why he shouldn't be added. If you decide to add him, be sure to also create a redirect [[Lore:Mishaxhi]] to his section in this article. -- kertaw48 14:47, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
I would very much like to, but I'm not able to figure out how to make a new section on the page. All I can do is edit the sections already present.Jyggorath 13:08, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
Here you go. I just hope you fill your end of the bargain now. ;P -- kertaw48 14:10, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

[edit] Miramor

Any evidence this person even exists out of the 2920 series? Otherwise, there's a good chance he's entirely fictitious and we probably shouldn't have a section for him. Minor EditsThreatsEvidence 05:47, 13 July 2012 (UTC)

He probably exists, but is so insignificant that I'm not even sure why he was added. We don't need a lore article about every minor historical person. -- kertaw48 09:20, 13 July 2012 (UTC)
His assassination of Prince Juilek played a major role in the fall of the Reman Dynasty, and the ending of the Second Empire. That seems fairly significant to me. --Xyzzy 14:05, 13 July 2012 (UTC)
