Talk:Drakes

From The Battle for Wesnoth Wiki

Why I changed the article

Basically, this page is out of date. The unit tree, which does update is superior to out-of-date wiki info. It's easier to link to the unit tree in a newbie-friendly page describing the faction than it is to keep updating an old page to reflect changes to a faction. It also makes more sense to keep all the information on unit stats in one place, which is the unit tree that keeps updated. Once I'm done with the drake page, which will serve as a "prototype" of sorts, I can move on to the other pages if no one objects (if anyone objects, I'm happy to discuss it here, on IRC, and on the forums). -- Aethaeryn 02:23, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

I'm going to add that I went through all of the faction pages (Loyalists, Rebels, Undead, Knalgan Alliance, and Northerners). Not only are they only linked to from one place (the category), they are all out of date in their information (last updated by script over a year ago and a few were revised by hand, inconsistently), and they do not differentiate between versions. I reiterate my opinion that it's easier to simply refer people to the unit tree than an old page, while the old pages can be used for wiki-style information pages on the faction in general. -- Aethaeryn 02:34, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
