Template talk:Dark Times species

Major changes

I noticed recently that this has been change massively Recently and gives far less and in my opinion inaccurate information. Normally I would assume that it had been vandalised but seeing as Scrooge was one behind it concluded that there must be a good reason behind it, and thus left it as is was. I would like to to understand why this was changed to what it was (no reason was given, hence my asking.)Anastasia Cousins ☎ 10:21, 19 September 2023 (UTC)

I overhauled the template at the same time that I did a massive rewrite of Great Old One and related pages (removing rampant speculation and canon-welding). Chiefly, the reduction of information stems from the fact that the template previously listed individual Guardians, Great Old Ones and Eternals, which is completely wrong for a template that purports to be about species. The lists of Eternals and Guardians have thus been split off into the newly-created {{Eternals}} and {{Guardians of Time}}. I also intend to create {{Great Old Ones}}, although due to the plurality of contradictory accounts of what GOOs even are (let alone who should be counted among their numbers), it's a tricky thing to get right without prioritising one account over another.
