Talk:Guides
Page Organization
Hoi, Kaeri and I were discussing organizing this page like so (please respond with your thoughts either here or in a private message through IRC):
For the jobs, we were thinking each job should have its own unique landing page. That page could then list all of the original guides pertaining to that job. Players who like to use the search function can search specifically for a job and just go to the job's page for info. We can copy the guides over and mark them with "Last Updated: x/y/z" dates and such, but the main article can be kept updated as a collaborative effort for current gameplay.
For this page, the job guide section would just be changed to a list/table of links to each job's page.
One perk I'd look forward to is that we could make each job page pretty with original art, so that could make room for another small art contest or for art donations. Until then, we can use official art. I like pictures! I'll explore template options for this when I get home tonight.

P.S. - Can we decide whether it's preferable to use European DD/MM/YYYY, American MM/DD/YYYY, or International YYYY/MM/DD format for dates? I don't know about anyone else, but I'm very picky about consistency. British variations of English vs. American English, too, if we start getting into edit wars over how we should spell "armor/armour" and such.
Adellie Here. 7 Dec 2012:
I'll stay in IRC more often.
I don't mind at all if you change the organization or split it up into a few different pages. I just started gathering guides here because the link was in red on the front page, and it seemed doable. :p (Personally, i do like long pages with plenty of infos though.)
However, I'm not sure a format like -- 01/01/2010 -- is a good idea. You'd have to check the guides every so often; and if the guide appears on more than one page, you'd have to edit each page. I'd rather just do something like -- by Soandso (2010-2011).
Also, last i checked, i couldn't upload images. Is it just me?
