Talk:Archer

So why does this need to be moved to Archer (Slang)? The only place the game uses the term archer is for the Archer NPC's in GvG's, otherwise it uses the term Ranger. --Draygo Korvan (Chat) 13:30, 26 June 2006 (CDT)
 * I guess the greater question is why is the Archer NPC located at Archer (NPC) while Bodyguard and Footmen do not have the NPC tag (while having a possible Slang meaning). --Draygo Korvan (Chat) 13:35, 26 June 2006 (CDT)
 * It should be moved mostly because five of the six wikilinks targeting this page are linking to the wrong article. They should be linking to Archer (NPC) instead. An disambiguation page helps avoiding these errors. --MRA 13:38, 26 June 2006 (CDT)
 * That still doesnt clear up why archer is getting a different treatment than Bodyguard, I think in all honesty that Archer (NPC) should be moved here with a subtle link to Archer (Slang) about its other meanings. There are many slang meanings for bodyguard too. --Draygo Korvan (Chat) 13:44, 26 June 2006 (CDT)
 * I guess what I'm saying in a general sense is that we should be consistant treating the Footman Bodyguard and Archer articles the same. Either they should all have the (NPC) or none of them should have it. --Draygo Korvan (Chat) 13:48, 26 June 2006 (CDT)
 * I vote for none. I can't really conceive of people coming to look up an article for "archer" for other than the GvG NPC.  --68.142.14.40 14:13, 26 June 2006 (CDT)

Such naming conflicts and the following inconsitent namings usually can't be avoided in a wiki system. That is, after all, what disambiguation pages are good for. Anyways, I can get along with any solution as long as the initial problem (five of the six wikilinks targeting Archer mean Archer (NPC) instead) gets fixed. --MRA 12:56, 27 June 2006 (CDT)
