[Non-Issue] How to post quest chains?
Post Reply

I created some comments with class order campaign quest chains (for Paladin and Shaman, e. g.
A Hero's Weapon
). These quest chains consist of about 50 quests, so these are a lot of comments. And of course errors happen and when I fix them I have to fix them in every comment.
So I decided to post new quest chains in a guide. I posted two guides (for Mage and Shaman), but they are waiting for approval, and I do not know how long it takes to approve them.
Now the questions:
1. What is the preferred way of postings like this? Comments, guide or something other?
2. Is there an API to mass post/update comments?
3. How long is the average approval time for guides?
4. When I fix errors in a guide, do I need to wait for approval again?
PS: Daemon hunter is nearly finished, too. Although daemon hunters are one of the very few classes very information about the chain could already be found.

I've read your thread and can relate to your issue, even if I might not be able to help you.
Here are my thoughts:
1. What is the preferred way of postings like this? Comments, guide or something other?
Comment fit well in the scenario described. A guide would have to have a lot more, for example "the guide to Paladin Class Order hall".
2. Is there an API to mass post/update comments?
Not that I know. guess just fix the first one and then edit the others with crtl-v.
3. How long is the average approval time for guides?
It varies from guide to guide.
4. When I fix errors in a guide, do I need to wait for approval again?
No I don't think so.
Hopefully you'll get some better answers.

A comment for this sort of topic is most appropriate. It doesn't warrant enough content for a guide.
No, no API for this exists. I could only suggest you use a guide draft or a text file to keep track of them if you wish to update them at a later time.
This varies. One of our Senior Moderators reviews guide submissions periodically and often comments with improvements if warranted.
If a guide has been approved you can edit it without further approval.
Thanks for contributing; the community appreciates it!

Thank you both.
Of course I already have the guides in an Excel table and written an Excel macro that converts it to the Wowhead format. But I will not update > 50 comments per class for every bug that I fix. So I will post one table on one page (perhaps the class page) and link to there in every quest. I hope that these links will not get lost in the shuffle. (A guide would have a link from every quest automatically ...)
