Category talk:Spells

Well, I've made a lot of changes to the structure of these categories, but I now hope that it's possible to find any spell relevant to the Forgotten Realms via most reasonable means, such as class, level, school and domain. Did I miss anything? Fw190a8 01:50, 8 February 2007 (UTC)


 * I've thought of one additional way to organize spells. Category:Spells by magic type where there are two sub-categories, Category:Arcane spells and Category:Divine spells, each spells is then added with a number afterwards so that they are ordered by class. For example, magic missile would be "1" because it is of first level. I think this will allow users to be able to browse through spells more easily, yet still use the existing categories to find specific types of spells. I think this will help when we have tons and tons of spells in the database. Johnnyriot999 08:08, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

0th level versus cantrips
Some spells are organised in 0th level categories and some are in cantrip categories. I am going to move all the cantrips to 0th level, because they can be listed numerically amongst the other spell levels, and are immediately identifiable as less powerful than 1st level spells in case someone doesn't know what a cantrip is. The use of the word 'cantrip' in the article would still be fine, I suppose, because it can be wikilinked. Fw190a8 (talk &middot; contr) 19:06, July 10, 2010 (UTC)

Split sorcerer and wizard spells
Before 4th edition, all sorcerer spells were wizard spells and vice versa, so Category:Sorcerer and wizard spells was created. Now that sorcerers have access to spells that wizards don't, and vice versa, I suggest we remove the "Sorcerer and wizard spells" categories, and put each article in both the relevant sorcerer categories and wizard categories. Unfortunately it's a big job. Fw190a8 (talk &middot; contr) 19:22, July 10, 2010 (UTC)
