Talk:Leader

It's a proper in-game term. At the most it'd be a candidate for Redirection, not deletion. -PanSola 00:50, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm not going to have too much of a cry if you delete this, (and Member & Officer ) it didn't take me that long to create but as PanSola says it's an in-game term, it's not even slang or a acronym. If you've joined a big guild as a Member you might be curious to see what the Leader can do, when you search for the term "Leader" something should come up. That's why I created this article. If you're the Leader of your guild, you might want to know what the Officers can do before promoting people to that position. The Guild article does say a lot about the administrative tasks that can be done but it's not written for that purpose, they're spread right across the article. It also doesn't say for example that only a Leader can change a Guild Emblem. --Xasxas256 02:57, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
 * If we keep the article (which I'm infifferent about), we should move it to Guild Leader, because plain "Leader" could be mistaken for "Party Leader" or any other kind of leader. -- 04:40, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
 * What infifferent about it!!! Tetris L this is like the abortion debate, you can't sit on the fence!! Or hang on maybe infifferent means you passionately support it, keeping the article that is. Or perhaps not. Well I'm still up for keeping this article but changing it to Guild Leader sounds good to me. --Xasxas256 04:54, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Okay, I'll pick a side then. :P Generally, I'm always in favor of keeping information together as much as possible, and split into separate articles only if necessary. That's because information scattered over separate articles is easily missed/overlooked, and because separate articles always mean some degree of redundancy. So, frankly, I'd rather keep the info about the Guild Leader as a paragraph within the Guild article. The Leader or Guild Leader article (if we keep it at all, and not turn it into a redirect) should be brief, pointing towards the Guild article for more detailed info. -- 05:21, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Dump Leader, make Guild leader a redirect imo. --Xeeron 08:03, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Even if you "dump" Leader, you still have to make it a redirect or a disambig page, because the word "Leader" is used standalone by the game. -PanSola 08:28, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Does every word or term that's being used in the game warrant it's own article (even if it's just a redirect)? I'd say NO. Only if a term is frequently searched for or linked to we should create an article or redirect for it. Otherwise we'd open a can of worms. Gimme a minute or two and I'll think of a few dozend terms that are used ingame that we haven't covered yet. -- 08:39, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Stupid Tetris L going against me, get back on the fence, I preferred you up there!! I think that knowing what each of the 3 positions can do is useful. It's useful to people who've only just got into RPGs and it's useful for people who've come from other games because the titles and their powers are likely to be different. It's also most useful if people can search for the term and go straight to the relevant article. I'm not opposed to the Guild Leader idea either but Leader would need a redirect because people would search for "leader" not "guild leader" as the wonderful and intelligent PanSola has said and you should all listen to PanSola more, this side of the fence is fantastic, next week The Who are playing live! Having all 3 positions redirect to Guild is ok too I guess but a fair bit of content from the 3 articles would have to be added. --Xasxas256 09:59, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
