User:Joenuts/Proposed Item Category Structure

( work in progress )

rules

 * Category names should exist in plural form


 * Category names that do not describe the category as having properties associated with its parent category shall have the categories parent name appended as either a prefix or suffix to add clarity
 * Example : Item domain.Items.Weapons.Simple ( Simple does not describe the category as clearly being associated with weapons )


 * Category names that do not clearly distinguish it from categories that may exist elsewhere (either in current domain or in another root domain ) shall have the categories parent name appended as either a prefix or suffix to add clarity


 * Items domain.Items to contain only pages that reference actual, literal "items"
 * Items domain.Items to be designed so that an item page may exist in ONLY one (sub)category of Items
 * Items domain.Items to reflect a structure similar to what exists in the game Auction House with the following exceptions
 * Auction House category names that conflict with other naming conventions will be renamed accordingly ( fix non plurals / fix duplicates / add clarity )
 * Auction House category names that are duplicates shall have the categories parent name appended as either a prefix or suffix to add clarity
 * Example : Auction House : Weapons.Simple.Dagger exists as well as Weapons.Throwing.Dagger
 * (Weapons.Throwing.) Dagger changed to Throwing Daggers


 * Items domain.Item groups tree should aim to group a maximum of two "item" properties together. Searches for items with more than two different properties in common should be done via alternate mechanism ( see : Multi Category Search or SMW )


 * Items domain.Item groups.Collectables by type will contain a category for each grouping used in actual game as defined by grouping when stored in collectables bag


 * Items domain.Item groups.Items by effect leaf node (categories) to be named "[effect] items" where effect is the name of the effect as it exists in the game with the following exceptions


 * Multiple effects with the same name that exhibit different behaviour should have the name of the parent category injected as either a prefix or a suffix to introduce clarity
 * Example : Items domain.Item groups.Items by effect.Ability damage items.Wisdom Ability damage items and Items domain.Item groups.Items by effect.Ability increase items.Wisdom Ability increase items
 * Items domain.Item groups.Items by effect (sub)categories to be named "Items with [effect name]" where subcategories exist with duplicate name
 * Example : Items domain.Item groups.Items by effect.Axeblock items may contain Lesser Axeblock, Axeblock, and Greater Axeblock items, so parent name structure to be changed to prevent conflict
 * Items domain.Item groups.Items by effect.Axeblock items becomes Items domain.Item groups.Items by effect.Items with Axeblock


 * Items by physical damage type to only contain other categories, not pages directly
 * Items by hand, Weapons by proficiency, Weapons by range to only contain other categories, not pages directly

questions

 * Is category for quiver necessary, or should quivers and containers to be merged?
 * Better name possible for "Items Domain" ( Trunk that contains not only items, but other things associated with items, like item materials, item groups, effects found on items )
 * Better name for Miscellaneous items.Shards ( khyber shards / siberys shards are not the same category as astral shards ( currency ))
 * Better name for Crafted items by craft "device" as categories include crafting devices ( altars ) as well as crafting npcs ( Fern Dogwood )
 * Various category names under Items domain.Item groups.Collectables by type may need to be revised to remove "collectables" suffix. ( if all mushrooms are collectables, suffix is redundant )
 * Evalute sub division of Alignment damage items in to 'Lawful, Non Lawful, Neutral, Non Neutral, Chaotic, Non Chaotic, Good, Non Good, Evil, Non Evil' sub categories ( no distinction between effect that does damage to neutral evil and not chaotic neutral )
 * ( No existing structure for weapons that do damage to [alignment], current structure is organized by damage type -- holy (dmg to evil) and good (dmg to non good) are in same sub cat ( good items ) because they both add 'good' damage type to items )
 * Side effect of neutral being descriptor for both Alignment and sub alignment
 * Evaluate sub division of Bane damage items in to 'Items with [race] Bane items' to include 'Lesser [race] bane items, [race] bane items, greater [race] bane items'
 * Simple projectiles may need to be peeled out from Dart category as 1) not all simple projectiles are darts and 2) dart category is transcluded in pierce items ( and not all simple projectiles are pierce items )
 * Evaluate creation of 'crafted items by zone' category which would inlcude other categories ( marketplace.[altar] ... marketplace.[npc] ... )
