Catherine General Hospital

Hi. All merged pages (like the hospital page) are being deleted. Each location is supposed to have its' own page. This is the correct page for that building. --– Nubis ^NWO 13:24, 7 May 2009 (BST)

Got it; I searched for "Catherine" but got a result that didn't indicate any other page for the place. Probably got caught with an incorrect cache.

Flares!

Saw three flares coming from your direction last night, although you said that everything was quiet at the fire station yesterday morning, you guys need some backup??--Dr. David J Wedge 11:22, 8 May 2009 (BST)

I can only assume you're talking about my character Generos, since he's the only one that was previously linked to this wiki account. (I've since added documentation to my user page). Most of the action he's seen is north in southern Stanbury Village. There appears to be enough of a zombie mob that they can take down any building they want, even if they can't hold it. Central Shackleville where Generos bivouacs has only seen a few transient zombies in the days he has been in the area; probably mostly revive-candidates shopping for an active revive point. --Lariat2301 22:09, 8 May 2009 (BST)

Ah, yes my apologies. I meant Doig Road Fire Station. Saw a few flares coming from that way and checked it out on the wiki, then saw that you were the one who last updated the page. Thought you might still be around. I have a couple of friends there that say it is wide open at the minute. Although yeah, not too many zombies..--Dr. David J Wedge 17:38, 12 May 2009 (BST)

Status reports

You are being way too diligent. I understand if you want to make a note of things that are overbarricaded, but if something is underbarricaded, perhaps instead of scouting relentlessly, you could cade it yourself. Keep in mind that not all players go onto this wiki, and most that do don't listen to the barricade plans anyway, because most of them are out of date. I would also suggest only noting overbarricaded buildings, and then putting it on the news section for the suburb. Casual users rarely read individual location pages, so your notes may actually get read that way. D^ANCED^ANCER^EVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 09:42, 15 May 2009 (BST)

Well, if I'm going to update current status, it pays to be complete. I don't want to simply edit those sites that are overbarricaded, since the lack of updated info on the others might be misinterpreted. and if I'm going to update, I might as well note which sites could use stronger barricades. And I can't cade it myself yet, since I haven't earned enough credits to get construction. Yeah, once I've got the experience I'd rather barricade than just complain. But most site's reports are really out of date, so getting updates in also helps while I wander around looking for head-bashing opportunities... --Lariat2301 09:50, 15 May 2009 (BST)

St. Ferreol's Hospital (Kempsterbank)

Rather than simply remove the danger report, would it not have been sensible to just update it? --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 22:12, 23 May 2009 (BST)

I thought it was created by a robot. Not? [Checking...] Darn, now I feel like an idiot for the oversight. Even has an obvious "update" button right there. Odd; for some reason when I first noticed the danger reports I investigated and they didn't seem this user-friendly. I'll do better in the future. --Lariat2301 22:29, 23 May 2009 (BST)
