User talk:Kukudush/Kara-Tur Overhaul

This is the talk page for the Kara-Tur overhaul project. If you'd like to contribute, don't hesitate to do so. All edits on this overhaul article that make it to the final product will be transferred to the Kara-Tur page as a replacement. Any edits made to Kara-Tur during this process are at risk of being lost after the transfer, so please make your edits here.

In this way, I hope to avoid messing with the Kara-Tur article, such that readers can still have access to the information as it stands (messy though it may be).

When the final page is finished and transferred, this talk page will be transferred to the Kara-Tur article and archived, and this article will be deleted.

Overhaul description
"I've started work outlining an overhaul for the Kara-Tur article. The article as it stands is too verbose in the areas that it has, and completely lacking content otherwise. I plan to include new sections, like how they are in typical wikipedia-style continent articles, such as demographics, history, geography and climate, economy, definition and boundaries, and culture. These will all eventually have their own respective full articles that will be linked to, but initially they will be dead links.

As this little project goes forward, please reply to this topic with any questions/comments/concerns. I shouldn't need much help, but if you already have work done, we should definitely collaborate to save time.

As a person who lives for lore, content is important to me, but also accessibility. I aim for the pages I edit to have just enough information to be convenient and informative, with the option to view more if desired. Yes, this leads to more work and more articles, but there is a boat-load of information to be recorded. Even for a small topic like the currency of Kara-Tur could easily fill a small article of its own, so that is the intention. As a DM, having quick access to short info and quick access to detailed info is important for making a good story.

Let me know if any of you are particularly attached to any part of the article or its children. I don't want to step on any toes.
