Talk:Knight of the Flying Hunt

Capitalization
Hmmm... the Flying Hunt might be capitalized, since it is an organization... but I am now really sure... any thoughts, based on the lower case Policy? Darkwynters 04:27, June 10, 2012 (UTC)


 * The lower case policy should only be the case for common nouns (i.e., knight, house, city, hunt, most spells), while proper nouns (Elminster, the Harpers, the Magister) should be capitalized. If the source uses a lower-case form, we should use that here, and if it uses an upper-case form, we should use that here. In this case, Champions of Valor uses "Knight of the Flying Hunt" in the main text (don't look at FR 3.5's funny heading font, which is all over the place), so that's what this article should go under, IMO. It's a title rather than a job description. :) -- BadCatMan 05:06, June 10, 2012 (UTC)


 * On a side note, I wouldn't necessarily go by the source's capitalization, as it's not necessarily going to follow the wiki's policy. For example, almost all sourcebooks capitalize most of the words in spell names (Magic Missile as opposed to magic missile). So long as our policy is followed, you should be okay.

Prestige Class v Organization
I'm a big fan of 3e. Since a lot of the prestige classes are PRETTY DARN synonymous with the major organizations of Faerûn, I think we've gone a bit back and forth over the years how to differentiate the two from one another.

With this article, and Knights of the Flying Hunt, I'm trying to:


 * 1. Limit overlap of information
 * 2. Have the prestige class page focus on the individual, as per source material. This would include, training, abilities, special items (using basic class pages like fighter or cleric as a broad template)
 * 3. Have the organization page focus on the order and their role on Toril as a whole. This would focus on history, activities, leadership, organization, recruitment, relationships, etc.

I would love to get some feedback on this and extrapolate it other pairings such as:
 * Red Wizards of Thay and Red Wizard
 * Harpers and Harper agent, Harper scout
 * Church of Tyr and Justiciar of Tyr
 * Knights of the Weave and Knight of the Weave

...and with all the others too!

If a lot of people are on board I could add this into proposals or guidelines, or just keep it in mind as I continue adding organizations and do some work on prestige classes as I would like to do. Ruf (talk) 04:41, August 24, 2018 (UTC)
