Talk:List:Buildings with Blazing Inferno

Why do we have a list for this? It's kind of unnecessary, TBH. Also, it disrupts the consistency of the Ability Page formattng. So, should e keep this page? Also, if we tras this page, I'd also like to get rid of the Chemical Spill, Radiated Zone, and Hellfont lists.--AXl 05:43, 8 September 2010 (CDT)
 * I am in the indifferent department here. Right now we may not have an immediate or obvious need for these lists, but it's there, doesn't really hurt and as the list grows could help some folks sort out their city lists if they want all fire, nuke, etc.. Summing up, already here, doesn't hurt, potential future use.  ---Galactus--- 09:46, 8 September 2010 (CDT)
 * I don't think we gain anything by having the additional list. As long as we have a way for people to see which buildings produce specific hazards, I think we're fine.  Of course, currently, that page is accomplished with the use of this and other lists.  I could go either way on it, but I'd tend to agree with aXl, it's currently inconsistent with what we do elsewhere. &lt;Philip Rowland&gt; 10:42, 8 September 2010 (CDT)
 * I like the way in which the Abilities are made up of multiple lists, referenced by the appropriate articles. That format allows us to modify one list and have it changed everywhere it's referred to.  I was hoping to expand that concept across the wiki.  I don't see how this page disrupts any consistency.  Could you 2 elaborate on that? Gearbox 14:24, 8 September 2010 (CDT)
 * To further elaborate on a finer point of wiki administration: Assuming all the contributions are of an equal level in quality there should be a reasonable level of consideration given to preserving, and not deleting, any content or work done to the wiki. If an editor went as far as to do the work then there is an automatic and assumed value associated with that work. The burden of proof, as it were, falls on the camp looking to remove any given contribution. Granted, this is premise that is hardly a pillar, but just something that I think should be considered.  ---Galactus--- 15:25, 8 September 2010 (CDT)
 * I don't have a problem with leaving it and even expanding this concept. It's just not what we're doing across the board yet.   I like the overall premise of having specific lists that we can insert anywhere we need to.  My only concern on that front is that we come up with a consistent naming convention for creating these lists.  "Buildings with Blazing Inferno," while accurate, seems like it might be a bit tedious to maintain as a naming convention.  Maybe I'm just too lazy, but the idea of doing a list for "Monsters with Hit & Run" and "Units with Hit & Run" etc. makes me think we could streamline the naming... perhaps rename it to something like Ability:FigureType.  i.e. Blazing Inferno:Buildings.  The odds of Blazing Inferno appearing on anything else is extremely slim (though we might reasonably see it in red on a unit or monster someday).  Thoughts, concerns, disputes? &lt;Philip Rowland&gt; 15:53, 8 September 2010 (CDT)
 * Ahhh, I see what you mean. Sure, make the convention as simplified as possible. This isn't a particularly well named list anyway. What I certainly do not want to start seeing happen are lists of all abilities. The idea of having a list page is figures with Hit & Run, etc. is WAY too much, imo. This is potentially handy in the future, the other example seems like massive busy work. ---Galactus--- 18:21, 8 September 2010 (CDT)
 * So this list should be named "List:Blazing Inferno:Buildings"? If that's what we wanna do, I've got no issue with that.  We would then, of course, make "List:Chemical Spill:Buildings" and "List:Radiated Zone:Buildings", yes? Gearbox 23:02, 8 September 2010 (CDT)
 * Yes. And, Galactus, massive busy work isn't always bad. &lt;Philip Rowland&gt; 08:45, 9 September 2010 (CDT)
