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) | Fortunately, this also fixes the inconsistencies created with the different ways we've been using the ''bench'' parameter.

: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) | :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) |
