not sure how i feel about the right table of contents. The ToC should be the first thing the user sees since this page is meant to be more of a glossary. let their eyes browse through the terms available first before showing them lots of text and disorienting them. plus on a wide screen monitory it's way off to the right. --PumpkinDog

To be fair, there ARE only five terms. It's not like a massive list. But if you want to change it, just do it. Not every change needs discussion and voting.  :-) -- B.Rossow talkcontr 16:48, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
i didn't want to be rude and change thing back that you just did though... ;) --PumpkinDog
I definitely appreciate that, but wikis are no place for egos and hurt feelings. If you see something that needs changing, go for it!  :-) -- B.Rossow talkcontr 20:56, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

Relevance

Just wondering if this article is still relevant. It's not linked from anywhere, but I can see some use for the page in combining all the scattered articles that are in existence at the moment regarding Terminology, such as those for Gold and Points etc. Comments? -- Grexx 11:03, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

I find that this has some good content for a player just starting out. I know I found it useful. I agree that we should figure out how to link this in and relate to other content. My concern is that if we combine this with other pages that the resulting page will end up to big. For example it is great to have all the crafting stuff on one page - but that page is too big. -- Ralphminer 11:17, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
Just realized this page is a series of transclusions from the various articles. I think they link just nicely together. This set of terminology articles is just right. The other remaining articles would be the Hunter's titles, and Abbreviations articles, which are fine being separate. So basically it all boils down to the general preference. Should we have separate articles for the terminology, or group the general ones into this article. I'm leaning towards a centralized article as mentioned earlier, since the various terminology articles don't contain very much information in themselves. Let me know your thoughts on this.
As for the crafting page, that is an altogether different matter. It has been gaining lots of weight of late with all the new additions, and a solution to that certainly needs to be found. The terminology articles on the other hand, are expected to remain relatively static for a long time to come. After all, the list of terminology articles have remained constant since the game started in March 2008. -- Grexx 12:57, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
My personal preference is to keep them separate. I don't have strong arguments either for or against, though. -- Camomiletea 16:12, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
