I added pages for Stats, Skills, Talents, Traits and Careers. I was wondering if you approved of the format.
Specifically, I concatenated the Talents, Traits and Careers pages into a single page. Is this OK?

We've got a topic on this already, at
http://ghforum.chaosforge.org/index.php?action=vth
read&forum=5&topic=3
As for the format, I really dislike the setup where we have stuff like Mecha:Buru Buru and Guides:Mecha Design. Can I ask why you picked this particular format? Also, I think the old GearHead Players Guide is out of date by at least 5 versions, I think most of the stuff has changed at least a little.

I picked this method for organizations' sake. There are less likely to be conflicts.

So update it. It's a wiki

I'm not sure there are likely to be many conflicts, at least not with mecha names. I think it would be better to use single names for things like mecha, locations, and NPCs, but maybe the categorized names would still be better for guides and docs.

You can always create the single-term pages and have them redirect to the categorized pages (as is currently the case with the Buru Buru).

Quoting: SharkD
You can always create the single-term pages and have them redirect to the categorized pages (as is currently the case with the Buru Buru).
The Buru Buru page dosen't quite redirect properly yet. I'd look into it, but I'm juggling 7 things here. I'll try and see why it's not redirecting tonight.

Sorry. It's because I renamed the page. It should work now.
