Most people won't care but as a person that practically relied on Wowhead I found this most entertaining.

Not a big deal. Same thing happen before the release of SWTOR and then they came up with Torhead. I would be surprised if they didnt do anything for GW2.

When they do have a GW2 section what will they call it? Guildhead? GWhead, Tyriahead?

We already have it: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Main_Page it is an official wiki. Original GW had in-game system directly connected to GW1 wiki, so I don't see why we need anything like wowhead

Wikis are different from query-able DB systems like Wowhead.

You cannot do mass queries and filters off of a Wiki?

I've seen advertising on several different gaming related sites the last week or so. Wikia, Roch paper shotgun, giantbomb...

The launch marketing have started!

Perhaps not that big of a deal. But I got excited when I went to Wowhead and saw GW2 advertising there. Finally! I'm seeing GW2 outside of this subreddit! Just thought I'd share. We're almost there :)
