Category talk:Citation templates

I propose a new category for Adventure citation templates, for templates such as Template:Cite book/Hordes of Dragonspear and the like. What does everyone else think? Cronje 14:31, August 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * I was thinking that during my clean up, but decided that some sourcebooks would be too difficult to categorise. A lot of adventures, like Cormyr: The Tearing of the Weave, have some sourcebook-type material at the back, while Dragons of Faerûn and Mysteries of the Moonsea mingle adventure and sourcebook materials interchangeably.


 * Plus it would be annoying to update them all. :) — BadCatMan (talk) 11:16, September 20, 2012 (UTC)


 * Of course, we could have two categories per page. — BadCatMan (talk) 01:37, September 22, 2012 (UTC)

Clean up
I've sorted all the stray uncategorised citation templates into their proper categories. Let me know if something went wrong. Later I'll look at checking the alphabetisation. — BadCatMan (talk) 11:16, September 20, 2012 (UTC)


 * I got annoyed hunting around for citation templates, hence the clean-up effort. I've been checking the alphabetisations of these, renaming some due to misspelling or non-standard formats, and putting deletion notices on those that are incorrect or duplicated. -- BadCatMan (talk) 12:13, September 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * Nice work you are doing there.. Keep it up. I did some also...in the books section conserning "the"... Jandor (talk ⋅ contribs ) 12:25, September 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * Great! Now I'm not the only one! -- BadCatMan (talk) 12:40, September 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * In the world of internet, you can't never be the only one..:) Jandor (talk ⋅ contribs ) 12:54, September 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * Great work!!! I actually spent some time editing all the "THE" pages... such as The Pink Piggy Inn or The Wild Wooly Tavern (names have been changed to protect the innocent)... I have only had three of editors undo them, because the sourcebooks have the "THE"... it is good to have compulsive editors on this wiki :) Darkwynters (talk) 17:51, September 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * Of course, if "The" is in the name and capitalized, then it should be in the article title. It's only in the alphabetical order that "the" can be skipped" over. — BadCatMan (talk) 01:37, September 22, 2012 (UTC)

Note for others working on these: I've checked Category:Novel citation templates up to and including R. -- BadCatMan (talk) 11:12, September 22, 2012 (UTC)


 * I've finished checking Dragon, Game, Novel, Web and Web Enhancement citation templates. That leaves pretty much Sourcebook and Dungeon. -- BadCatMan (talk) 12:41, September 23, 2012 (UTC)


 * Sourcesbooks have been checked. -- BadCatMan (talk) 08:59, September 24, 2012 (UTC)


 * I've now checked alphabetisation for all the citation templates, and categories for all those I know of. There were some duplicates I've either turned into redirects or put up for deletion, and things that didn't fit the standard naming format that I either renamed or put up for deletion. This should be much tidier and more user-friendly now.


 * There may be a larger project here of checking that every single template follows a universal format, full name, correct details.. but ugh. -- BadCatMan (talk) 11:15, September 24, 2012 (UTC)
