Haskill edits[edit]

The edits to the Haskill article were removed because they contained a huge amount of personal opinion. Here, like most wikis, the standard is generally to maintain an objective approach to cataloging information. The majority of the added content is of subjective nature; that is, it is influenced by the writer's opinions, beliefs, experiences, etc.

Examples include the statement that Haskill "is an extremely boring individual". Being a cynic does not necessarily constitute as being boring. Other statements such as the summoning spell "is quite useless" is also subjective; who are you to determine how useful or useless a spell is? Maybe if Haskill just stood there and refused to talk it may be useless, but considering how he offers some form of advice for the majority of quest stages, there is some aspect of practicality behind it.

Furthermore, there are several contradictory statements, such as the final sentence declaring how "important and useful" he is, regardless of how an earlier statement expounded the uselessness of being able to summon him. Finally his "clown suit", another point of consternation as we generally don't invent facetious terms here, is, to my knowledge, not integrated into his model. Rather, the suit has no world model or icon, similiar to the Mythic Dawn armor, so it cannot be seen unless viewed on an NPC or on third person on the player.
