Mission categories Edit

(Dropping the same note as to Clopnaz.)

Hey, about the mission categorization. These are supposed to be added directly by the template, we just haven't got around to deciding on a stable category structure yet (see TaRapedia talk:Formatting/Article names, and comment if you want). Particularily, it is very unlikely they will use "Missions", but rather "missions", so some of the categories you're adding and creating now will go dead.

If you're interested in categorization and structure, I encourage you to join in the naming discussion. The faster we get something hammered out, the better. - Dashiva 17:55, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Mission rewards Edit

You're doing a good job on the missions. While you're at it, maybe you could start using the {{Icon/Weapon}} and {{Icon/Armor}} templates for the reward equipment? For weapons it's {{Weapon|<Modifier>|<Damage type>|<Weapon type>}} and for armor it's {{Armor|<Modifier>|<Armor type>|<Gear type>|<Version>}}. If an item doesn't have a modifier or damage type, just leave it empty like {{Weapon|<Tesseract>|<>|<Pistol>}}.

You can find large icons to help determine armor versions on the armor pages, or you can just leave out the version parameter if that's too much work. Every bit helps. - Dashiva 02:44, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

One minor nitpick here. This is just a cosmetic thing, the templates are correct. I'd just prefer if you did it like this:
|RewardItem={{Icon/Weapon|Vextronics|Exothermic|Polarity Gun}}
<br>{{Icon/Weapon|Vextronics|Cryogenic|Net Gun}}
<br>{{Icon/Weapon|Vextronics||Leech Gun}}
<br>{{Icon/Weapon|Vextronics||Chaingun}}
instead of like this:
|RewardItem=
: {{Icon/Weapon|Vextronics|Exothermic|Polarity Gun}}
: {{Icon/Weapon|Vextronics|Cryogenic|Net Gun}}
: {{Icon/Weapon|Vextronics||Leech Gun}}
: {{Icon/Weapon|Vextronics||Chaingun}}
The latter form creates an empty margin to the left of the icons (and I think the other one looks prettier as code too, but don't mind that). Just a suggestion, the mission templates are far from standardized in this area. - Dashiva 03:59, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
