Talk:City districts of Absalom

From PathfinderWiki

Naming conventions

The Naming Conventions Policy says that creating sub-pages should be avoided. It goes on to use Absalom/Districts as an example. So, have we changed our minds? Did we just miss reading this piece of the policy? What are the arguments for and against this policy? --Aeakett 19:53, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

We haven't really discussed it, but I'm starting to think we should revise the policy. We should have a discussion about it in any case. Heaven's Agent made a subpage of a Katapesh article (the specific one escapes me) in response to one of Dmeta's edits and I mentioned the current naming conventions but we didn't really discuss it. I think we should take this to either PathfinderWiki Talk:Naming conventions or a new Forum thread and try to come to a site-wide consensus before making it official policy. -- yoda8myhead 19:58, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

List format

The page is currently a list, which is a big no-no. I'm not blaming anyone; I made the page. I think we should make this into a page of definitions similar to the Entrances to the Darklands page, with each brief overview linking to more detailed pages. The current contents of those individual pages would suffice as the overviews, with info from Guide to Absalom filling the district-specific pages. -- yoda8myhead 18:00, September 11, 2009 (UTC)

That's exactly how I was thinking it should be organized, tho I wasn't sure how it should be formatted. However, given that each of the city districts should have a reasonably detailed article in the near future, I wonder if it would be better to simply have a list of the districts on the main Absalom page which links to the more detailed article, and deleting this page. They won't be making more city districts anytime soon. --Goblin Witchlord 18:13, September 11, 2009 (UTC)
