Category talk:Skill stubs

I went through all the stubbed skills as per the discussion in GuildWiki talk:Peer review and removed stub for those skills which had all their information filled in. I think I left some stubbed that needed what I arbitrarily (and probably inconsistently) deemed as a lot of reformatting. The information missing on most of these skills are usually number ranges, acquisition info, and images. --Fyren 07:30, 19 Jul 2005 (EST)

A lot of these skills stubs already have all their information filled up.

I'm going to semi-manually draw up a list of the PC skills that should be unstubbed and then use a bot to do the unstubbing, but I'm not absolutely certain on what the criteria should be. Every skill has a skill box/data template filled out, so I'll probably unstub anything with a progression section with data up to at least 12, with a non-empty acquisition section, and that is not a Nightfall skill. I'll do this sometime tonight unless someone objects or has better criteria. --Fyren 18:03, 3 September 2006 (CDT)
 * I did basically what I said I was going to do, but I didn't unstub skills that only had skill trainers on Shing Jea listed. So, in essence, every core and Prophecies skill was unstubbed since they're relatively complete.  Core skills may still be missing Factions trainers since I don't know if we determined Michiko has every core skill or not (and not every core skill has Michiko listed).  Some Factions skills only have a Shing Jea quest or trainer listed, so I left them stubbed.  Some have no acquisition at all.  --Fyren 12:30, 4 September 2006 (CDT)
 * A side note, since I just remembered: this says nothing about the state of skill articles that were destubbed before I touched any of this. --Fyren 17:22, 4 September 2006 (CDT)
 * How many did you do? I've been doing a fair few by hand, just wondering how many were left before I gave up &mdash; Skuld 18:09, 4 September 2006 (CDT)
 * I destubbed a little less than 180. --Fyren 19:01, 4 September 2006 (CDT)

I just want to make sure of something. If the skill is unlocked when you choose the profession, can an article be stubbed because it doesn't have a factions trainer? (Shadow Refuge) Silver Sunlight 14:15, 22 March 2007 (CDT)
 * Just a thought... MANY of the skills in the stub section can't have a Factions/Night Fall trainer, because you get the skill when you change your profession to whatever it's linked to. Can someone please tell me if this really is a reason to stub a skill? Silver Sunlight [[Image:SSunlight.jpg|19px]] 07:22, 8 April 2007 (CDT)
 * Taking shadow refuge as an example, if you're sure you both cannot pick assassin as a secondary or get to any skill trainer as an assassin primary without it being unlocked, go ahead and unstub. No one's really ever looked into the second part; in theory it's possible you can skip a quest in newbieland somewhere that would have offered you a skill.  I don't think anyone's ever looked into whether it's actually the case or not.  --Fyren 07:50, 8 April 2007 (CDT)
