There's a lot of suggestions and questions about methods of making pages, so if there's anything of general interest, post it here.( I'd suggest making a section 2 heading for each new topic.) If you are less interested in this or prefer a different method, talk about that too.

Ranks or types of an ability

First, how do ranks or types of an ability want to be handled? I am personally lazy when I am typing quickly and piped links mean more typing. What I was currently doing is typing part of the name (examples are in Sand Elemental and below). However, I think having half the ability one color and half another color doesn't look quite as nice, so I thought I would ask.

For example, Stat Bonus - Damage 1 would look like Stat Bonus - Damage 1, with the intent to organize information on the Stat Bonus page. One possible option looks like Stat Bonus - Damage 1 with code ([[Stat Bonus]] - Damage 1). That takes less typing than Stat Bonus - Damage 1 with code [[Stat Bonus|Stat Bonus - Damage 1]], though the total link looks a bit better to me.

I've been manually hotlinking the stat bonus thing, but I've been feeding them all into Stat Bonus (which hasn't been made yet). I think it would make sense for convenience sake to do the former - the only important bit is that they all link into the same place and show the necessary information.

I think option two LOOKS better, but, yeah, it doesn't matter that much. Serpente 09:01, August 10, 2010 (UTC)
