Talk:Monster

Just finished a test version for a new layout to be used in the "Data" section of the monster articles. With this new layout it should be possible to neatly fit all the dehacked data into the articles. Anyways, here's what the layout looks like:

Baron of Hell:

Sergeant: {| |cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0| {| | |- |
 * valign=top|

|} Feel free to edit the layout if you have further improvement ideas - it's of course better to edit the layout now than after using it in the articles themselves. Janizdreg 21:35, 19 Mar 2005 (EST)
 * valign=top|
 * valign=top|
 * }


 * Why not create a template with parameters? - Fredrik 13:23, 20 Mar 2005 (EST)
 * Could be good, though I don't know enough of that stuff to do it myself. Janizdreg 15:43, 21 Mar 2005 (EST)

I think this page should be deleted. It offers nothing over the Monster categories; except more opportunities to be wrong and more maintenance :) Opinions? -- Jdowland 22:11, 7 Dec 2005 (UTC)


 * I strongly disagree. I like how the Weapons article provides a tight, simple overview without going into as much detail as the pages on individual armaments, and this article could be made to do that also (provided someone fleshed it out, of course).  Such articles are IMHO especially useful for neophyte players who are still trying to get a handle on the overall structure of the game.    Ryan W 08:44, 12 Jan 2006 (UTC)


 * I just made a first bash at this. I don't remember the other games too well (having played them either many years ago or not at all), so I only did Doom and Doom II, but I suspect that certain of our other editors could fill in the Strife part (e.g.) almost effortlessly.   :>    Ryan W 00:39, 16 Jan 2006 (UTC)
