Its not completely official, but its supposed to be a list released by a Blizz dev long time ago to show that they have planned for the expansions and storyline way in advance.
My guild master in WoW came across it a while ago and posted it this week in our forums.
Interestingly enough the first 2 are in it.
- Draenor Set

Netherstorm - 67 to 70
Shadowmoon Valley - 69 to 70
- Northrend Set
Borean Tundra - 67 to 70
Howling Fjord - 67 to 70
Dragonblight - 69 to 72
Grizzly Hills - 70 to 73

Hiji - 10 to 20
Wolfenhold - 1 to 10
Xorothian Plains - 10 to 20
The Green Lands - 88 to 91
The Dying Paradise - 91 to 94
The Emerald Nightmare - 94 to 97
The Eye of Ysera - 97 to 100
Deephome - 88 to 91
Skywall - 91 to 94
The Abyssal Maw - 94 to 97

Argus Meadowlands - 97 to 100
Mac'Aree - 99 to 100
Maw of Oblivion - 100+
The Burning Citadel - 100+++
Well it makes sense. The Maelstrom set would open up all the closed coastal areas in Azeroth and let us face off against Queen Azshara in the depths. Since there appear to be no knew low-level areas, perhaps a new class/classes as well?
The Planes would finish the Emerald dream plot hole and let us fight against the Old Gods again. But I wonder if the elemental regions are in the correct order. Granted, it's probably most difficult to survive in the Firelands, but Neptulon is the strongest of the four lieutenants. Though I guess it is possible to have the hardest raid boss in somethin gbut the hardest area, like Kil'jaeden in Azeroth.
Oh, and what is Wolfenhold?
The Legion expansion, never saw that one before, though it seems like some sort of mini expansion or last major content patch if you will.
PlugY for Diablo II allows you to reset skills and stats, transfer items between characters in singleplayer, obtain all ladder runewords and do all Uberquests while offline. It is the only way to do all of the above. Please use it.

The Demon homeworld has yet to be visited. Yeah, where the Burning Legion started.
I had heard from Medieval or possible just some shameless rumour mongering, that WOW will have 7 (or was it 5?) expansions. Two are already done, so that leaves 5 (unless there is a total of 5, then it leaves 3.)
If it is a total of 5, which sounds a bit better (not just to my wallet), then that list is probably right on the money.
Except for maybe Pandaria. That is still April Fool's joke thingy, but I love it!! Shodopans rule!!

-Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. To obtain, something of equal value must be lost. That is alchemy's First Law of Equivalent Exchange. In those days, we really believed that to be the world's one, and only, truth.
should be a starting area for a possible Worgen race.

that should be the starting area for the Pandaren if they decide to implement them, even though (at least according to some of my guildies) its hard to do since theres a law in China to forbid the use of Pandas for something with violent content (wondering if "Kung Fu Panda" could be considered just that) and as we know Blizzard expanded to the chinese market with WoW.
all of this looked more like an idea to what they have for WoW for now.
As i see it, the expansions with starting areas should introduce new races to the game and from whats on the list they'll roughly come once every 3 years.
The others add just high level areas and maybe new player (hero?) classes.
Cant wait for Demon Hunter! I waited for it even before the Death Knight!

Plains would be a yellowish tan sort of a brown thing. The colour of a plain. Something almost like the orginal WOW box, but not quite. Unless it is based on the higher end areas then it could be a black. Black is what you get when all colours are absorbed (white being when all colours are reflected), each element has a colour, lots of colours together makes black. err Brown.
Demons definitely has to be red.
Maelstrom would have to be a deep blue Kind of the colour of a Void Walker.

Well FingolfinGR means Planes as in different realms of existence, not plains as in grassy areas
Although perhaps yellow could work anyway. Though I imagine it would be more gold-like than bright yellow.

the "Planes" should be where the Green Dragonflight lives -The Emerald Dream more or less. Thats pretty much certain from the regions it includes (that are very few if you think about it). I'd think dark green for it.

True enough. But it also includes The Abyssal Maw, Skywall and The Firelands. Deephome could pass for green I think, but not the other three. It would all depend I guess though on which malific force is the main antagonist. Obviously it would have to be someone or something relating to the Old Gods, but whether the last stage would be the Emerald Dream of Elemental Planes would make a difference.

i'm wondering in which expansion we'll get to face Deathwing... We'll kill Malygos in WotLK eventually and Arthas too, but the Destroyer (as were his children Onyxia and Nefarian) is one of my favorite villains. The way he tried to create a chromatic dragonflight to destroy the rest (and also how he was involved in the enslaving of the nether dragons).
I hope we get to see more about his plot soonish.
And Kil'Jaeden. What the hell has that guy been up to. He is still alive right? he kind had a cameo appearance in WCIII: TFT, but I haven't heard much of him since. He outranked Archimonde.

Kil'Jaeden was defeated in the latest WoW content patch in Sunwell Plataeu. He wasnt killed, they just interrupted his entry to this world, so postponed the inevitable. I'm guessing we'll fight the real deal in the patch where we'll get to see Sargeras himself (and hopefully we'll have some demon hunters to counter him).

Right, and that's most likely something we'll see in this last assumed expansion.
If Deathwing is to make an appearance, and if we assume there's some truth to these expansion packs, he could appear in any expansion. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Deathwings betrayal orchestrated by the Old Gods?

i'm not sure yet, i just started reading the Warcraft novels so my lore knowledge isnt that good. If i find out something about it i'll inform you, but the idea i got from the WoW quests about Deathwing was that he got crazed during the first war and turned on the other aspects. After that i thought he was doing stuff his own way.

Maelstrom: Water. Deep blue color, as opposed to the lighter and white color of Wrath.
Planes: Does contain the Emerald Dream which suggests green, but seems to focus more on the Elemenral Planes. Any color could be a candidate really.
Demons: Red. Definately red.
Demons definitely has to be red.
Maelstrom would have to be a deep blue Kind of the colour of a Void Walker.
