StrategyWiki talk:Guide/Organizing the pages

Ditchingness
Didn't echelon say we were going to ditch subpages completely?--Dan 07:58, 1 March 2007 (CST)
 * Not as far as I recall. I think they work quite nicely. --DrBob (Talk) 10:52, 1 March 2007 (CST)
 * No, quite the contrary--subpages are the foundation of the wiki itself. Who would want to download/read an incredibly long guide that takes 10 minutes to scroll through? Imagine the effect on editing and on the server itself, too! You might be thinking I was going to do away with the subpage hierarchy links at the top of every guide, but I've grown used to them now and consider them useful.  ech elon  10:55, 1 March 2007 (CST)
 * I think you misunderstood me. I was referring to the below text:

... then it should be split out into sub-pages of the items sub-page of the game, so a book, for example, would go in Game name/Items/Book.

I'm asking whether or not the /Items/ subpage should carry the weight of all of the items of the game. It was decided before that a /Walkthrough/ subpage carrying the entire walkthough was considered unnecessary, so what makes /Items/ any different?--Dan 23:20, 2 March 2007 (CST)
 * I think /Items/ should be used if there are a lot of items (as in a MMORPG). Regardless, most guides should just be putting all item information on a single page (/Items). The walkthrough pages are more important to the guide than the item pages, so they deserve to be "promoted" to being sub-pages of the guide's main page. --DrBob (Talk) 03:48, 3 March 2007 (CST)
