: For vermin articles, it makes sense to have a longer article for the economically important cave spider. For mineral articles, it makes sense to have a longer article for the rare and game specific adamantine. A D for Dwarf section for minerals like chert is simply unreasonable, and would take away from the specific purpose of the wiki, which is information first. | : For vermin articles, it makes sense to have a longer article for the economically important cave spider.

: All of the mineral articles fulfill the masterwork obligations. They are as comprehensive on the subject at hand as necessary, because this is a game, not a geology lesson. If players are interested in geology, they can find the information they need more effectively elsewhere.

:::::Well tbh fine is fine, not good, as in it's not bad but it isn't good either = neutral. Exceptional = good and Masterwork = great. I was in fact thinking that, rating-wise, Masterwork is really close to Exceptional, and Exceptional is pretty far away from Fine, so it would be a good idea to turn Fine into Well-crafted and Exceptional into Superior, to have them all 2 levels apart: Tattered(0), Well-crafted(2), Superior(4), Masterful(6... or 12). --[[User:Speed112|Speed112]] 12:14, 16 May 2010 (UTC) | :::::Well tbh fine is fine, not good, as in it's not bad but it isn't good either = neutral.

:I agree, Masterwork articles need to be something particularly special. I don't think it's a problem if some articles, by their nature, may never be able to be "masterwork".

::I just want to point out that if Exceptional is the goal, it should score as 100%, not 60%, in the math for the quality rating. (I think Fine should also be bumped upward from 30%, and Tattered bumped up from 0% to maybe 10%.) I won't make the change myself, as my last edit to the math was reversed.<br/>—[[User:0x517A5D|0x517A5D]] 14:51, 30 May 2010 (UTC) | ::I just want to point out that if Exceptional is the goal, it should score as 100%, not 60%, in the math for the quality rating.

− | ::: | + | :::As for your last edit to the math being reversed, it '''might''' have been due to said change consisting of ''adding a random number from -40 to +30 to the rating'', as well as outright labeling it as "'''malicious'''". --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 16:31, 30 May 2010 (UTC) |
