Damage and type
Wouldn't it be better if the type was given before the damage, so that it can be sorted using that column (e.g. for the Bastard Sword entry, it would read "Slash 1d10" instead of "1d10 Slash")? Since ranged weapons are also piercing weapons, this would allow sorting by damage type --HawkFest (Contributions • Message) 17:38, August 15, 2014 (EDT)
 * It's always best to put messages for other editor's directly on their root talk page instead of sandbox sub-page talk pages if you want them to see them. As to your inquiry, no, it wouldn't be better.  What might be better is to separate the damage amount and type into separate columns so that it can be sorted by either (or both).

 * Then from what you are suggesting, YES it would be better, and your suggestion would make it even better. I thought of what you said at 1st, but wondered if this was due to the data template whatsoever, thus my suggestion was minimalistic. Btw thanks for your tip about posting in the mosr relevant place. --HawkFest (Contributions • Message) 20:26, August 15, 2014 (EDT)
