Weapon articles
Hi CommandoXXX, I admire your work on Tarapedia and I just want to ask you about the weapon pages. You've returned links to the general weapon pages to each of the weapon types. These small articles doesn't list anything useful and we decided not to use them. Until Firehoth added few lines of text to the EMP Rifle article few days ago they were all the same: listing the damage type, training required and link to the general weapon article. Do you think we can make these small articles useful by adding any information which is not already presented on the general weapon articles? → Zarevak 20:45, 17 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Zarevak,
 * Actually, I was wondering about that myself. The small articles serve no real purpose as they are, and the only possible purpose I can see to them would be for tactics specific to a particular type of weapon (like mentioning that a Sonic Shotgun is useful for crowd control).  There's no reason that tips of this kind can't be in the main article, though, which would render the individual articles completely useless.
 * I think the only article I actually added the links to was the Shotgun one, the rest I simply edited the existing links to use the PAGENAME variable, and the only reason I added them to the Shotgun article was for consistency as every other article had the links. I didn't check the individual pages so I didn't know how much content was on them, but was planning to check after I'd finished the content updates on the main weapon article pages to see if they could be combined anyway.
 * I ran out of time for it today though, but I can continue with it tomorrow and combine the individual articles into the main ones, if you think that's best? The individual articles can then be turned into redirects and I can remove the links on the main pages.

Farewell
It's sad news for TaRapedia you've decided to leave us and return to WoW. Sadly the new Crafting system cannot compete with the 3.0.2 patch of WoW :-( All your contributions are remembered and you'll always be welcome here I wish you much fun playing MMOs and maybe we'll meet once again. → Zarevak 22:11, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
