Link directory
This is the master link list for the guild, so nobody has to scroll a Discord channel to find the Wowhead database or the Blizzard forum. Every link carries the tag the research gave it: verified means someone loaded the page or saw it confirmed live in 2026 search results, unverified means the URL or the claim about it came from a snippet or memory. A few sites are named without links on purpose; the reasons are at the bottom.
