The hardest part of this effort is collecting pictures; that does absolutely nothing from a guide-perspective. To make this a worthwhile read as far as a "guide" is concerned, we would need some way for a person to approach this document with a specific need and in turn that person be able to easily come to the information.
Such as, I have no idea where the Dwarfs came from in Warcraft, so I come to this guide. I am stuck doing a text match through “control + f” to find the information, or I have to read the whole document. I've wasted all my time because in this example I only wanted to know about Dwarfs. If this were a paper at the university level, you'd get an F despite its contents being on point.

Pinchot is my bosses name, stupid auto correct... I meant penchant...
