[edit] Plural

Is it shamans or shamen? It just occurred to me... --Pendrako 20:29, 7 March 2007 (CST)

It is shamans. shaman is not an english word so it doesnt follow the man-men words --Arbegas 00:52, 8 March 2007 (CST)
I concur. One shaman, two shamans. I was once involved in a long debate on the topic that was finally closed by a linguist PhD. --Bishop 11:24, 9 March 2007 (CST)

i would have said shamen 'cause it sounds cooler 89.240.70.240 12:43, 2 August 2007 (CDT)

[edit] Spirits and Gods

Shamans suppossed to have a conection with spirits, while WAR shamans power drain for Gork and Mork, two Gods, basically the WAAAGH, a form of energy, so goblin shamans are called shamans just for having a name, or for some reason that I dont know about?

Please explain :P The preceding unsigned comment was made by Dr.M.Ginius (contribs) 15 September 2008.

They're called Shamans because it sounds "tribal" and the Greenskins have a tribal society :) They bear little relation to real life witch doctors/magic men in tribal communities in terms of magic, though they play a similar role in Greenskins society. Also, could you please sign your comments with four tildes "~" in a row? Thanks - and have fun. - I see you already know how to do that, my bad, nevermind ;) ~ Revoran | talk 16:13, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

Well, I think that actually Shaman word and shamanistic stuff generally fits the greenskins, yes. Would be more fitting than a goblin "mage" or something like that... mage, warlock... that kind of words sounds too "elegant" for the greenskins :P but that question was just disturbing me, thanks.

[edit] Extremely Large Page

To put it simply, 'dis page is off da' hook! It is over 15 page long with text, pictures, and formatting. Although it is a plethora of cool knowledge, it might want to be broken down into subpages, with links from here to the various master trees.... what do other people think? ¬ WTarrasque { talk | contribs } 15:30, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

It ought to be broken down into different articles and tables, the images should be rewritten in plain text and put in nice and smooth tables on different pages, I'm currently trying to work out an ability structure, check Talk:Zealot for more info.
