Talk:Wolfire Wiki Editing Standards

Weapons (anything lower than this point should be in a weapons page not a sub category. If you have a crucial detail for that weapon and there is no page, don't think you have to make an entirely new page. Add your words to the file's own page for example look at the staff. )

So who is to decide if there should be a weapon page or not? I don't agree with the last sentence because of two reasons:

• 1. look at every single (game related) Wiki that is mentioned in Wolfire Wiki Editing Standards#Useful Examples - Every weapon has its own page there:
  • http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Weapons
  • http://www.wowwiki.com/Weapons
  • http://marvel.wikia.com/Category:Weapons
  • http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Weapons
  • http://bioshock.wikia.com/wiki/BioShock_Weapons
  • http://witcher.wikia.com/wiki/Category:The_Witcher_2_weapons (not on the list but also a very good wiki)

The reason why its better to have a page for every weapon is because its simply easier to manage them on their own page then to track every single occurence on collection pages like Equipment_and_Weapons or Dogs#Weaponry (which I have combined previously because they contained duplicates of the same information)

• 2. Image pages should be used to describe the image itself and only give a short description about its content. http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Image_page
