That looks really, REALLY good. 10:47, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

On this one, since the skillsets are the same in both locations, you could just have one pair of NM/HM columns under "All locations". &mdash;Dr Ishmael 15:24, 4 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I think my template could be nested to get that effect. How does it look? --mendel 17:24, 4 June 2008 (UTC)


 * My point was that this one only needs two columns, not four, since both NM skillsets are the same, as are both HM skillsets. &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 18:33, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

 * I think that there might be other monsters where that structure is needed, even if it is not strictly necessary for this example. --mendel 22:58, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Right, right - I could've sworn I'd edited something like that into my previous comment, but looks like I forgot to. Don't you just hate that: when you think about doing something so much that you convince yourself you've already done it?  Yeah, I hardly even have to think anymore.  Um... >.>  Yeah.  I'll shut up now.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 01:02, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Sounds eerily familiar. --mendel 01:50, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Just personal preference really but I like Ish's one better, however your idea mendal is still better than my original one. Just a tidbit but there's a exclamation mark at the end of 'Northern Shiverpeaks' which I'm guessing shouldn't be there - b.r // talk  03:55, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
 * In the case where a monster does have four distinct skillsets - NM and HM in two different locations - I would use Mendel's, as his templates "hide" a lot of the table formatting that could easily get borked up by over-zealous editors. I wonder if you could even use that for the three skillset version...

Awesome! The "staggered" bottom edge isn't exactly perfect, but I think it would work. &mdash;Dr Ishmael 04:55, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

 * That is true, the last thing I want is to have the table ruined by a newbie-wiki user. Since Pan and Poki think it's better to remove the colour (and I can see the merits of that decision), then the borked design here won't be much of a problem - b.r // talk  04:59, 5 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I am planning to do a two-level version (i.e. with the two levels of headings) anyway; the first line would be given in near wikitable syntax, and it could use a colspan. --mendel 13:44, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
