Talk:Quotes/Consoles/level 1b: Difference between revisions

:The way I see it, everything and anything is worth writing about, as long as you can add some original considerations which can not be found elsewhere: whenever you can stress something non-trivial on our wiki's side, I believe it is better to do so, and to provide links to further reading then and there (Wikipedia, Magma, Halopedia, whatever). Halo's ONI is a good example of a largely anecdotal "trivia", for which it's OK to refer to Halopedia "when and if" it comes up. Myth, however, is quite relevant to Oni, due to the numerous [[Easter eggs]] and to a contemporary, sympathetic fan community (and [http://tain.totalcodex.net/ The Tain] is a ''very'' good example of a "Mod Depot", btw). Therefore, I think it deserved an article, eventually. I would have understood a redirect to Easter eggs, even though that would have left the community links to Magma and The Tain out of the picture. Deleting the redlink altogether, without even a direct link to Wikipedia or Magma, was not appropriate. --[[User:Geyser|geyser]] 21:07, 6 October 2008 (CEST)

:As for us not having or needing a page about Bungie, you can go ahead and delete the Bungie redlinks, but I think it's better to set up a redirect pointing to either Bungie West or Oni. More generally, whenever you feel trigger happy about a redlink: 1) please consider that the redlink may not actually be a problem to anyone but yourself - redlinks are about the tidiest kind of mess there can be on a wiki; 2) please consider writing a short article ''or'' setting up a redirect, along with linking to an external resource or clearing the link altogether. Basically, take into account the possible recurrence of such a link throughout the wiki. If there's half a dozen distinct Myth references in Oni, there'll be dozens of places in need of a Myth link; in that case, it seems appropriate to set up a more or less stubby Myth page, allowing for Oni-relevant development and exhaustive "further reading" links (''and'' there's the Myth community, which is sorta relevant to us as well). --[[User:Geyser|geyser]] 21:07, 6 October 2008 (CEST)
