User:Pauling/Item archetype pages

Hey, Equinox! To answer your questions:

  • The archetype pages aren't an official standard, but rather a collection of common templates and unofficial community standards. They show how to use the recipe templates, where to put infoboxes, how to make links visible on a dark background, what categories and types of information to include, etc.
    • That said, these basic archetypes- or pages decended from their spawn- do seem to be the basis for most newly created pages. However, there's also spotty adaptation of individual elements. Not everyone who uses the archetypes remembers to paste in the categories, recipe explanation text, etc.
  • I agree that automatically adding categories would be very, very useful. At present, this is hindered by the fact that all 3 weapon types use the same (weaponinfo) template- hence the only category that can be added is the generic "weapons". Shango thinks that this can befixed by adding a "weapontype = sword" field to the template with smart tag assignment... but adoption of this field would be slowed by the number of people who create new item pages through the "copy/paste/modify" method. If the random page they copy from isn't up to spec, the new page won't be, either.

User:D0gr0ck/Icon Cleanup

  • Hey, thanks for keeping pace with all my uploads and cleaning up the old stuff to keep bloat down. I'll probably start moving though the weapons and then defensive gear next.

Note to myself

Add these weapons to their respective weapon type page.

Cyclohexane-> Thanks for the crop, I was just about to upload a new version <3

Front/Back

Will this extend to helmets too? Saphykun 02:53, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

It depends on if you think it's helpful. I started the front/back thing when I saw that the Deadshot Mantle's charming qualities were only on the back and wanted to make sure people got to see that (same holds true for the lizardy armor with the tail in the back). I'd be fine either way! Just want to have it so it's as useful to people as possible. --Equinox 03:48, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
