Hi Michael. I understand that our use of subpages may appear unusual to the regular Wikipedia editor, but we work under a different philosophy. Since we are aiming to have complete walkthroughs and capture guides for each game, we expect to contain a lot more information per game than Wikipedia does. As a result, we try to avoid forcing our readers to wade through extremely long pages of information, and prefer to break down the information on individual pages. This way, a reader can examine the table of contents and jump right to the information he or she is looking for. We have established a fairly comprehensive system of navs and guidelines for different types of guides, which you can read about in the [[StrategyWiki:Guide|StrategyWiki Guide]]. And if you have concerns about some of the choices or decisions, you're always encouraged to raise them in the [[StrategyWiki:Staff lounge|staff lounge]] or the [[StrategyWiki_talk:Community_Portal|Community Issues page]]. Once you've been an editor at SW for a while, I'm sure that the use of sub-pages will begin to feel more natural. Give it a shot before you make any final judgements about it. Let me know if you have anymore questions. [[User:Procyon|Procyon]] ([[User talk:Procyon|Talk]]) 22:59, 22 May 2007 (CDT) | Hi Michael.

:That does make sense to me considering that so many pieces are meant to be expanded over time. I just did not know that was the policy on SW.
