Enemies subsection

Considering the popularity of our rare spawn chart section, I've added a subsection to the "Enemies" category in the list. Since we're working on removing the spawn charts from the massive article they're all in now and placing them in their respective mission articles, we should decided exactly what to do with the old page. I was thinking that we could use it to fully explain how to read the notation of our spawn charts, then include either a list of mission or simply a link to the mission list stating that individual charts will be found in their respective mission articles. - EspioKaos 11:21, 28 December 2007 (CST)

• The JP wiki, for anyone desiring to emulate that, has one article for all the rare charts of each planet. My preference, however, would be to have the (renamed) 'Rare enemies' article explain how mission variants work, list and link the rare enemies themselves, detail the chart notation, and link directly to the charts contained within the mission articles themselves. - Miraglyth 13:27, 28 December 2007 (CST)
  • Your idea sounds great to me. - EspioKaos 16:53, 28 December 2007 (CST)
    • Might be forcing the issue too much, but some mission article rare spawn charts are already complete. It might be an idea to replace those entries in the Rare monsters article already, sa that'd help the transition move along as well as be an immediate cut to server load since - as Espio's noted - the page is one of the most popular on the site and is still larger than recommended - Miraglyth 18:04, 28 December 2007 (CST)
      • Very true. If I have time tonight, I'll try to get some of the tables transferred over, converting them to the new standard while I'm at it. - EspioKaos 18:51, 28 December 2007 (CST)

Comments, suggestions?

Well, I've gotten a comment on this so far. Not to sound like I'm rushing this, but I'd love to see us get a new navigation system going. Aside from us, the visitors have wanted one for a while, so I'd like to give them what they want. So, look good? Is there anything we should add or take out? - EspioKaos 21:04, 24 December 2007 (CST)

• It's a good list, but how do you get to other content aside from search? Maybe there needs to be an actual full contents page that's linked within this list? --JubeiSaotome 02:59, 25 December 2007 (CST)
  • I was thinking that we could include subsection listings in certain main articles; that would help to display other sections without necessarily expanding the navigation list. - EspioKaos 10:25, 25 December 2007 (CST)
• I think each page should also have links to at least its parent pages so that you can click around no matter where you are. Something like:

at the top of each page. Au+ 10:33, 25 December 2007 (CST)

• • Breadcrumbs, yeah, they should always be in a navigation. --JubeiSaotome 20:25, 25 December 2007 (CST)
  • Yeah, I think that's a good idea. The index wouldn't really need to be on the list, of course, since the logo in the upper-left will take you back to that. The other stuff might be good to have. (I guess the weapons section is covered since all categories have the weapons table shown.) - EspioKaos 20:20, 25 December 2007 (CST)
• Due to the recent interest some visitors are showing toward offline game data, I've separated the site map list into network and offline sections. Like this, the list will grow quite a bit, but with some reworking of certain sections, such as Your Room and photon arts, we can put subsection links on their respective pages as opposed to having them listed individually in the map, therefore saving some space. - EspioKaos 10:19, 27 December 2007 (CST)

Bump

• Jump bumping this back up to the top of recent changes. It gets buried so quickly with all of the stuff we've been doing as of late. - EspioKaos 22:15, 27 December 2007 (CST)
