Talk:Editing Guidelines

For Review
Rule 1 still mentions the Discord. This was to prevent overlapping editing, but I'm not experienced enough in Wikia to know if this is actually necessary.

Monster stats templates
Monster stats templates The two sources of information for monster stats are: This results in four possible combination for monsters: I think the monster pages should aim to have as much information on stats as possible - there's a big, interesting difference between Queen Taratect at LV1, and Mother at LV89. However, the pages could get a bit long using the current monster stat templates, so I've been using the collapsible Character Stats Extended rather than Monster Stats Extended for the Appraisal results.
 * 1) Monster Encyclopedia pages (aka monster sheets)
 * 2) Appraisal results (aka Statuses)
 * 1) We have no stat information at all, but we know they exist: Taratect, Puppet Taratect
 * 2) We only have appraisal results: Greater Taratect, Anogratch
 * 3) We only have an Encyclopedia page (for now) (this is a small category): Fenerush
 * 4) We have both appraisal results and an Encyclopedia page: Queen Taratect, Earth Dragon Araba, most monsters

Additionally, I've been references to store the Skill Points of appraisal results, which is not ideal.

As a result, I think it would be good if there was a third monster stats template specifically for long appraisal results. This template should: The current Monster Stats and Monster Stats Extended templates are great as is for Encyclopedia pages.
 * be collapsible, with a header (like Character Stats Extended)
 * lack a name field
 * have a Skill Points field

Bonus: I think it would be good if the Character Stats Extended had a Skill Points field - all our information on character stats comes from appraisal, so we often know their Skill Points, and I think Skill Points of characters are interesting to compare.

Edit: I would make the template myself, but I have no idea how or where to find out how.

Good idea. I decided a while ago that Skill Points where an unnecessary piece of information, as there aren't too many areas where they actually get used. There are only a few case uses of it: whenever Kumoko says she uses it, when Shun gets some skills, and Earth Dragon Araba. Mostly used as plot points, so that's where I mention them (Synopsis sections)

I do like your idea about the story versions, so I'll make a collapsible version for you real quick.
