Lore talk:Sentinel

Pelagius was not king of Sentinel

Although it is stated here and in The Madness of Pelagius that Thoriz Pelagius was king of Sentinel, it was not so. Most likely it was a typo, being Solitude the correct place, in the book previously mentioned. It can be seen clearly when after it is wrongly stated that he was King of Sentinel, Thoriz Pelagius is referred as a "Nordic King" and Sentinel is a Hammerfell Kingdom not a Skyrim one. Furthermore it is said that when Thoriz Pelagius' father died and he became emperor, his sister succeeded him and was crowned Queen of Solitude. Joshuaadriel 19:46, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

First paragraph about low population should be removed

Its population is relatively low due to the inhospitable nature of the surrounding Alik'r Desert.[2][3] However, some fertile fields can be found along the coast near the city,[4] and the city is actually a major population center in Hammerfell.[5][6]

This part is contradictory. "population is low but actually it's a major population center" Also the two sources for the low population sentence don't actually mention it having a low population??? A History of Daggerfall says it's lower than Daggerfall but, not that it's low. "The last census, in the year 3E 401, lists the population at over 110,000. It is always difficult to find an exact number, but the capitol city of Daggerfall certainly outnumbers her rivals, Sentinel and Wayrest."

I would want to just edit it to remove that myself but I'd also have to edit the citations and stuff and I've never edited a wiki page before really so basically I'm asking somebody to remove the sentence about the population being relatively low. — Unsigned comment by 73.118.176.107 (talk) at 18:11 on 22 March 2023

Yes those lines are weird and already contradict each other. I believe we should reword those sentences to make them factually correct like, "the Alik'r is sparsely populated but Sentinel is a major population center" for example. The Rim of the Sky (talk) 19:25, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
