Talk:Orc (Warcraft)

Shouldn't this article be renamed Orc (Warcraft)? There are Orcs in many other publications, such as Tolkien's works (where they originated) and even other MMOs, like Final Fantasy XI. --ChildofValhalla 03:18, July 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * Tolkien's work doesn't take place on another planet as far as I know, and I am also unsure if the FF games technically take place on other planets or not (even the ones taking place in the Tactics games is apparently just an altered Earth). However, The Elder Scrolls is another planet, and it has orcs. This article actually wouldn't be renamed and given a redirect - it would be converted into a disambiguation page similar to the Blob page, and the new article would be created - specifically called "Orc (Warcraft)". Well, either that or this would be moved without a redirect added and a new Orc page would be created as a disambiguation page. I'm busy with some serious real life issues lately but I can seek to fix it tonight or tomorrow if someone wants me to do so, and add in the Elder Scroll Orcs...or at least a stub for them. -- Somarinoa 05:45, July 22, 2011 (UTC)

Well, Final Fantasy XI takes place on a planet called Vana'diel, which is most definitely not Earth, and Orcs are a MAJOR part of the game's story. There's just no way around it--The page titled simply "Orc" should be a disambiguation page.--ChildofValhalla 08:06, July 22, 2011 (UTC)


 * Ah, yeah, I never got to play XI; I bought it for my PlayStation 2 when the hard drive came out, then they removed support for it immediately and my old large system died, and they would then only give you thin systems if you sent yours in. I've been considering getting into it finally, although finding a place to live and an actual reliable income comes first, unfortunately.  I noticed you added some image things like the Galka today, so I'll go ahead and make the disambiguation page super quick just in case you wanted to add the FF Orcs (<- open link to make it easier on you should you come across this before making the page) to it.  If you know of any other FF that definitely takes place on another planet (as opposed to, say, a non-alternate universe magically created reality), let me know - I love Final Fantasy monster designs and I'm all for adding up critters that can be added here.  -- Somarinoa 08:16, July 22, 2011 (UTC)
