User talk:Stabber/Skill categorization proposal

Looking at proposal 0-2 gives me the creeps. Looks like some sort of alien invasion plan...

but no matter which proposal we choose, we should keep all skills in the parent categories as long as possible (as long as the number does not lead to a second page). So Primal Echoes would be in categories: Ranger skills, Beastmastery Skills and Ranger Core skills. That puts a cap on the amount of subcategories we can create, since we dont what to have articles with 20 categories around. --Xeeron 01:20, 17 March 2006 (CST)


 * Actually, this page is not in its finished form. I just realized that there is a neat trick that I can use to generalize all of it and present just four or five different features to tweak. Give me a bit longer to get this straight, and then I'd like to hear your re-evaluation. 01:24, 17 March 2006 (CST)


 * All right, I've made my edit. Does the final figure still scare you? 01:46, 17 March 2006 (CST)


 * I like it, it's what I've been hoping for all along. Evan The Cursed (Talk) 03:09, 17 March 2006 (CST)


 * Very useful to color the "buerocratic" categories. Dont worry, I was just poking fun at the grafics, they are (and were) useful =) --Xeeron 03:54, 17 March 2006 (CST)

is the proposal complete yet?
don't want to start firing my comments away before you consider them in a more or less ready state. -PanSola 04:44, 17 March 2006 (CST)


 * Yes. Comment away. 05:51, 17 March 2006 (CST)


 * There is an inconsistency in saying there are "Untyped skills" vs there are "Regular spells". What are you going to do with other non-leaf skill types such as Attack and Melee Attack?
 * I think "Regular spells" should just be "Spells", and "Untyped skills" should just be "Skills" (except it gets ambiguous so name that "Skills (skill type)" instead. If you are against my proposition, please definitely make clear what you are planning to call skills that are just "Attack" and "Melee Attack" -PanSola 06:01, 17 March 2006 (CST)
 * Nature Ritual and Binding Ritual should both fall under a "Rituals" subcat. Or at least if you are unsure, test it out with Ritual Lord on 3/24. -PanSola 06:02, 17 March 2006 (CST)
 * OK, I wasn't careful enough in that section, so your objections are valid. I've made a first pass at cleaning it up. Take a look. 06:04, 17 March 2006 (CST)
