Category talk:Animated

Entire groups of items that need to be included: Celestial, Destroyer, Tormented, to name a few. 17:13, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Tormented's done.--[[Image:Gigathrash_sig_G.jpg]]ìğá†ħŕášħ 17:14, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I'll do destroyer, if noone else is yet.[[Image:Sandaljack.icon.png|Clamiam]] Sandaljack 17:16, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Celestials done.--[[Image:Gigathrash_sig_G.jpg]]ìğá†ħŕášħ 17:18, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Would Zodiac items be considered animated? I'm thinking no. I have to take care of some college-related business, but I'll get back to doing random ones in a couple hours. [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 17:19, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Nah, they don't move around.--[[Image:Gigathrash_sig_G.jpg]]ìğá†ħŕášħ 17:20, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Destroyer is done :D[[Image:Sandaljack.icon.png|Clamiam]] Sandaljack 17:22, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Rename
Um... this category should really have a better name. "Animated weapon skins" or "Weapons with animated skins" or something. &mdash;Dr Ishmael 17:25, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * No, because it also goes on animated armor.--[[Image:Gigathrash_sig_G.jpg]]ìğá†ħŕášħ 17:46, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Even so, "Animated" is a little weak. :P &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 18:18, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Could it be Animated Items? Ishmael is right, lots of things could be animated (all minipets, for example), but really this is applying to weapons/offhands/armor[[Image:Sandaljack.icon.png|Clamiam]] Sandaljack 18:21, 22 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Animated is great because if the need arises, you can do sub-categories. For example, you could subcat the minipets into Animated with a single line in that category. But until there's no need, I wouldn't really bother. --◄mendel► 18:24, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Mendel, you are magic. [[Image:Rsz_PLSig.jpg‎]] 18:37, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Except we don't have a minipet category. (If someone wants to get going, make a set of redirect pages like "Shiro (minipet)" redirecting to Shiro, and cat the redirect.) --◄mendel► 18:40, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Hmm..I'll get to work on the pages after track practice if noone else does it. [[Image:Rsz_PLSig.jpg‎]] 18:44, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Why not just categorize the existing articles? That's where the MiniaturesNavBox gets displayed anyway.  Why create extraneous redirects that no one will ever use?  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 23:39, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, do you really want "Gwen" to be subcatted into "Animated"? or the monsters? actually, just subcat Category:Bestiary and be done with it. The point is, I guess, that a mini is a different entity than its "original", and some attributes differ. An alternative would be to just cat the Miniature article as "Animated". (PossessedLinebeck, it's be best to wait for consensus here before catting 50 articles.)
 * I would also appreciate it if you (= everybody) could comment on having the celectial/destroyer/torment weapons catted "animated" by themselves - I feel it would be best to remove that again, now that we have subcategorized them. I've reverted the destroyers, but not the others (yet). --◄mendel► 23:52, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * All the better. This will give us time to think how we can proceed even more flawlessly. [[Image:Rsz_PLSig.jpg‎]] 02:22, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
 * The point is not to do it flawlessly - there are several options that are workable. The point is to make edits that stay edited. ;-) --◄mendel► 01:37, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Chaos
Are the Chaos items considered animated? 17:55, 22 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Would a video capture show the item differently than a still screenshot? --◄mendel► 18:24, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Well met. [[Image:Rsz_PLSig.jpg‎]] 18:28, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
