disambiguation problem here. there are priests (role) and priests (temple) -- PraetorFenix

My guess is that we can describe them on the same page. It is easier to link [[priest]] everywhere than to do something like [[temple priest]] and [[priest role]], or perhaps [[priest (temple)|]] and [[priest (role)|]]. However, Wikihack is not explicitly a dictionary, so info about priests need not be at [[priest]]; if someone thinks it good to split this page (after it becomes longer), then they should try it. --Kernigh 05:35, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

I have a question

Does being a Priest make Atheist conduct not possible?

Nope, in fact it makes it really easy since you start with holy water and you don't need altars to BUC test items. You still have to avoid sacrificing, praying and chatting to priests, and you can't use your #turn ability, but even so maintaining atheist conduct is a lot easier than it is for other classes.

Avoid abbreviations in the explanation text of articles

This is an encyclopaedia. I dont think we should use abbreviations like wis and int in the explanation text. Wikihack needs to adopt a formal manual of style..

The Longbow of Diana

I really can't agree with the article's suggestion to use the Longbow. It's a terrible artifact weapon (since it doesn't deal extra damage), and it's a lousy quest artifact compared to the Key. Therefore I've decided to remove this advice until someone wants to back it up. -- Killian 08:25, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
