Talk:Table:Very Heavy Fighters
From Discovery Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to searchI don't really get why you've done this. I can see that you've included it inside Fighters, but what's the point? Doing it this way, just adds another step to what people have to edit. Can you explain please? ~Chovynz~ (Blabs • Ego) 20:15, 22 June 2009 (MDT)
- It is also included in a tactics article. As I mentioned in the changelog this will actually reduce a step as it will only need to be edited in one place. You could have seen the places it was transcluded to by using Special:Whatlinkshere/Table:Very Heavy Fighters. I also included a link in this page so it would help minimize this extra step.

- I did see where it was included in. I always check what links to pages like this. I think it could be a good thing, but like you said on skype people don't know how to use this (I am one of them :D). I also do not think it's necessary to translcude it into the Tactics page. I see you've already put it back in F#VHF. I'll try to follow your example with other lists and help educate others too. It just seems an unnecessary arse-about-face way of doing it, since you have to go to a different page to edit it instead of it being available right there for anyone to edit, and potentially confusing for anyone else who does not know what you are doing with it. But like you said in skype, you've also tried to minimise the issue, by adding the edit link.
- Tell me a better way to include one table in multiple places and only have to edit it on one and I will gladly use it. Also, I fixed the link.

- I don't see the need at all to have that table in any other place - instead I would refer the readers TO the table using pipes and something like Fighters#Very_Heavy_fighters...in text it would be "See VHF for the ship list". But like I said above, I will see how this goes and follow your example with this one.
