Talk:Final Fantasy VII

And so it begins.
So, now there's a Final Fantasy VII Wikibook and it actually has some content in it now, too. How... amazing. The thought of starting one had occurred to me quite a few times while playing the game, mostly while consulting GameFAQs - a lot of completely redundant work there and all under same "rip this off and I'll eat you for breakfast" license. I saw the FF6 work, and thought that starting a FF7 one might really work. So, now I just hope this thing gets even close to done. Slowly, but surely.

Erm, I don't have too much other words of exhortation, so here it goes. Go forth, edit, and ramble. --Wwwwolf 00:23, 28 August 2005 (UTC)

Random Notes for the Wise Gamers
Here's some random details:


 * Use the character names as they're given in Wikipedia. That is, Aeris is apparently now officially, permanently, irrevocably "Aerith Gainsbourg".
 * Walkthroughs should preferrably split into "boss-size" chunks. That is, one major boss-fight per page. Or, if there's no boss nearby, at least "hour or two of headless wandering". For examples, from meeting Aerith to getting dumped to the sewers from Corneo's mansion would be a "hour or two of headless wandering" (though it does have a boss in the end); from sewers to the fall of Sector 7 would constitute as a normal boss-size chunk: Wandering and instructions for so can be crunched into a reasonably-sized reading, and it contains exactly one major boss-fight (Reno).
 * Walkthrough modules are named "FF7: Walkthrough: Some title here, please". Non-walkthrough modules, or optional/in-depth subquest modules, should be "FF7: Some title here, please".
 * At this preliminary stage, there should be no need to make an unified walkthroug section-to-section navigation bar or anything. However, it would be neat if the articles would simply link back to the Final Fantasy VII article in the beginning. Just put a paragraph saying  to the beginning of the article. Remember, it can always be fixed later =)

Once again, happy editing. --Wwwwolf 20:06, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
