Talk:Bonus items

Should this be a redirect or it's own page?
When GoTY first came out, it was close to the only way to get /bonus items. Now there are a variety of ways to get them. So, is it worth (a) moving the various bonus item sections from GoTY and (b) updating any links to bonus items that previously pointed to GoTY? --Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 17:05, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
 * If you want to create this article, go right ahead. Make the bonus sections be subpages. To give you an example to work from, I created Guild Wars: Game of the Year Edition/bonus (that is a "subpage" of [Guild Wars: Game of the Year Edition]), copied the contents of the item details from Guild Wars: Game of the Year Edition onto that page and replaced the content on the original page with . Then I put it on [ Bonus items] as well (click "edit" and then "preview). Now the details apppear on both pages, but are really stored only in one place.
 * Feel free to choose other/different info to go on that subpage, I was after doing a quick demonstration on how to work this. Create as many subpages as you need. We use this in may places in the wiki, e.g. for collector information and other stuff. When the page is done, remind me to use my bot to update the links (unless you want to do it yourself?). -- ◄mendel► 18:07, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Cool! I didn't realize this - what a fantastic time saver. I'll have to play with it a bit before jumping in the deep end. Thanks! --Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 18:13, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

Not just GOTY
There are many other bonus items that are not from GOTY, so this is blatantly wrong and needs to be made into an article that links to GOTY, the Igneous Summoning Stone, and the preorder boxes that offered bonus items for all 4 chapters. Not sure how that article should look. RoseOfKali 18:48, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Please calm down. This is exactly what TEF suggested. -- ◄mendel► 18:54, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh, didn't notice. Why are you telling me to calm down, anyway? RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.png]] 19:09, 22 February 2009 (UTC)


 * How come the transclusion only shows up if I view it in history, but if I just open the page all I see is the redirect? (part of why I had no idea about what you were doing or talking about)  Also, would it be better to use a table format and put the images in the left column and the description in the right?  As it is now, the TOC threw off the alignment, and I put it to the right with a clear after it to fix the alignment, but the TOC kind of sucks on the right.
