Fortunately, this also fixes the inconsistencies created with the different ways we've been using the ''bench'' parameter. Instead of "Metalwork Bench (either)", "Lvl. 2 Metalwork Bench or Electric Metalwork Bench", or "Tool Bench Lvl. 5/Train Yard", this standardizes it into the format "Lvl. # (Bench) or (Bench)". And, if that ever needs to be changed, we only have to change the template, instead of the 180+ pages that use the template. --[[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] ([[User talk:Abcboy|talk]]) 21:44, 17 July 2014 (MDT)

:The closest thing I can see to a problem is when there's some difference (such as rush cost) between two benches, and that's easily handled by listing two different crafting tables. --[[User:McClaw|McClaw]] ([[User talk:McClaw|talk]]) 07:21, 18 July 2014 (MDT)

== Changing plural in categories/page titles ==
Currently, pages like [[Items]] and [[Blocks]] are in the plural while the corresponding categories, like [[:Category:Item]] and [[:Category:Block]] are in the singular. On Wikipedia and most other wikis, this is reversed, with page titles in the singular and category names in the plural.
The most common issue here is that if you link to "Items" as "item" you have to type <code><nowiki>[[Items|item]]</nowiki></code>, which is very counter-intuitive. I'm in support of changing it around. Thoughts? --[[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] ([[User talk:Abcboy|talk]]) 21:07, 28 August 2014 (MDT)
