Talk:Cocoa Tree
Revision as of 22:56, 10 October 2008 by Tancred RedStar (Talk | contribs) (Rolling Up some topics? RFC!)
Although I think the Plants and Seeds page should contain info on Cocoa Trees, I don't think the Cocoa Tree page itself should be rolled up into it and lose it's own page for a number of reasons.
- Search engines that spider UOGuide content will rank topics with pages higher than pages with topics.
- Linking
- Easier linking for external reference(forums, in-game, etc.)
- Easier linking internally
- While redirects may make Linking moot from a human perspective, they require several more operations server-side.
- While the page may not be terribly exciting on it's own, in relation to other seemingly mundane topics, I believe having them start modest encourages people to flesh them out more and add in more details, perhaps somewhat arcane, but I think UOGuide should strive to be the most comprehensive repository of UO-related info. Conversely, rolling them up into larger, more general pages discourages the continual layering on of additional information as times goes by.
The Spring Décor Collection page is another example, in my mind, of a page that should certainly round-up the items/topics in a general overview, but there should be sub-pages for each specific item.
Would love to hear additional input, pro or con, from everyone on this. --Tancred RedStar 22:56, 10 October 2008 (PDT)
