Discussion:Suggested New Categories
From D&D Wiki
Suggested New Categories[edit]
Christine 16:43, 21 March 2011 (MDT)[edit]
I'm new to this wiki, I am not 100% aware of its primary function. I come from a wiki that's written to best serve the audience, and unfortunately that sometimes leads to complications for those who actually edit the wiki. As such, I'll skip being bold and pose this as a suggestion first.
I found the wiki when a friend of mine wanted to start up a D&D campaign after learning to play in school. This, of course, lead to the ridiculously fun process of creating characters. Really, I got giddy. I did my research. We're now onto starting a second campaign with all new characters and (I promise I'm getting to my point), I mistakenly made a Barbarian Minotaur. Anyone more experienced with D&D would know that those two have clashing alignments. But I was pretty dead-set on having a non-magical (i.e. nothing I need to keep track of on a daily basis - points, spells, etc) Minotaur. But finding a class to match wasn't necessarily that easy.
So I'm proposing a few new categories, but there's a reason I'm not just going ahead and doing it. Example categories would be:
- Non-evil Alignment
- Non-lawful Alignment (in use, but the page doesn't actually exist)
- Non-good (...?) Alignment
- Any non-blahblahblah
The reason I'm asking first is because I'm not sure if you would want class/race pages showing up with base classes. This would make it easier for those visiting the wiki to find something relevant to what they need. Maybe it's silly to write up a discussion for this, but if nothing else it's a way to say hi, I'm Christine. :p
Also, can I suggest linking to DnD Discussion on the sidebar? It was a bit hard to find.
