Oblivion talk:The Feed Bag

The UESPWiki – Your source for The Elder Scrolls since 1995

We have recently had a rather lengthy discussion where it was decided that we don't want to create pages for every inn and shop in the game. See: Oblivion talk:The Bloated Float Inn. Any information about this tavern should be included on the NPC page for its publican, Delos Fandas. --TheRealLurlock ^Talk 14:47, 22 February 2007 (EST)

As per the new Oblivion Places Redesign Project and by the request of Rpeh, this page is being tagged for cleanup under the OPRP. --Kementari 02:55, 3 July 2007 (EDT)

"by the request of Rpeh" sounds rather grand... For those not involved in the correspondence, Kementari recently noticed one of the projects on my user page and offered her assistance, which I gladly accepted. When I put that line on my page, I was unaware of the debate mentioned by Lurlock above. I think, since February, the consensus has shifted towards having the individual pages. That would let us eventually include information about, for instance, possible theft targets, which wouldn't fit on the publican's page. I agree that some measure of duplication is going to occur but I'd rather see that than miss information altogether. --Rpeh^Talk 03:36, 3 July 2007 (EDT)

Eep, I was unaware of that discussion as well. However, since most of the OPRP discussion has happened since that particular decision was made, and there seems to be rather a consensus on the support for the OPRP, do we suppose that the idea of individual place pages, including shops and houses, might be reopened for discussion? As Nephele said in the The Bloated Float Inn's talk page - "Yes, it'll probably be a while before any significant part of this gets implemented (unless there are some interested volunteers with a lot of free time)..." - this philosophy could be applied here as well. Moreover, I'm with Jadrax's comment in that discussion - redundancy, so long as it isn't executed sloppily, is only a good thing for a wiki, founded on search functions. :) --Kementari 03:52, 3 July 2007 (EDT)
