	:The Quotes/Weapons section is meant as a more or less verbatim reference, so it should merely be transcluded to wherever the weapon is actually described. Making the actual Mercury Bow article part of a page like Gameplay doesn't sound good either. Actually, I would think there's potential for single pages like this one, one per weapon, just like what we have started for the [[Crescent Moon Kick]] a while back. The mercury bow is quite popular among fan artists, so you can illustrate a page rather easily, even without obvious/tedious things like HD screenshots of the model, HUD icons, a mention of the sniper scope mod, generally cool screenshots of the gun in-game... At some point it will also make sense to set up a Mercury Bow category and apply it to articles or images that feature the gun prominently. --[[User:Geyser\|geyser]] 16:46, 29 October 2008 (CET)		:The Quotes/Weapons section is meant as a more or less verbatim reference, so it should merely be transcluded to wherever the weapon is actually described.

	I would recommend that you move any original insights you've put here into the weapon tips on the "Gameplay" page, and make this page redirect to that page. I will now make a note on the Gameplay page that people who want to see the tech specs can also go to the Quotes/Weapons page so both sides of the weapon's info, stats and tips, are more easily found. In hindsight, we should have set up redirects like this a while ago, so anyone typing in a weapon name gets sent to the right place. --[[User:Iritscen\|Iritscen]] 14:57, 29 October 2008 (CET)		I would recommend that you move any original insights you've put here into the weapon tips on the "Gameplay" page, and make this page redirect to that page.

Iritscen: my suggestion

my suggestion

New page

Hi MK, have you seen [[Quotes/Weapons|this]] page? We have the manual text there. Also, we have tips for each weapon [[Gameplay|here]]. You may have noticed this page was a redlink from a couple others, which could mean that the weapon was undocumented; sorry, that was misleading on the part of the person who made those links.

I would recommend that you move any original insights you've put here into the weapon tips on the "Gameplay" page, and make this page redirect to that page. I will now make a note on the Gameplay page that people who want to see the tech specs can also go to the Quotes/Weapons page so both sides of the weapon's info, stats and tips, are more easily found. In hindsight, we should have set up redirects like this a while ago, so anyone typing in a weapon name gets sent to the right place. --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] 14:57, 29 October 2008 (CET)
