Talk:Recipes

how is this new layout an improvement? feels/looks like a step back to me. Ichikaii (talk) 06:22, 20 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Main point of this change was to use Cargo Extension to automate the lists. Now they have proper HD images and there is no need to change same recipe on 4 pages (for example Cierzo Ceviche, Cooking Pot, Cooking and Recipes), we only need to fix recipe definition on item's page (Cierzo Ceviche in my example) and rest will update on it's own.


 * Thanks to this there is no longer an issue where same recipe has been completely different on different pages and there is no longer issue of low quality (and even WRONG) images on Recipes page (like Assassin Claymore using Assassin Sword's thumbnail, or Bandages not having one as you can see here).


 * As for layout itself, it's the same layout for recipes all across the Wiki, if you have any constructive suggestions, I will hear them out. MrForien (talk) 08:49, 20 April 2019 (UTC)


 * I can't speak for others, but I mainly visit a wiki for information, not HD images. I understand it's easier & less work to do it this way, but it defeats a lot of the functionality of this kind of page.
 * Sure, it may look nicer, but a lot of information was removed, even nonverbal. For example, instead of ease of comparison of which foods have better HP regen, all we have now is just "everything under the header of cooking pot uses the station "cooking pot"", dgee that's useful to know. Just because a template fulfills a certain purpose on one page, does not mean it adequately does so on all of them.
 * Even name/ingredient based it's split up right now because for some reason fanged shield and scaled satchel are suddenly in a different table.
 * But at least everything is nice and centered and has the correct HD images. Right?
 * Anyways, thank you for the honour of hearing me out, with your permittance I will continue to use & edit the old page. At least, until the next unilateral decision. Ichikaii (talk) 17:15, 20 April 2019 (UTC)


 * I believe that single page should serve single purpose. If one page tries to do everything, it fails. This page is called Recipes and it has one purspoe – to list every single recipe. Nothing less, nothing more. If we were to add every possible stat to every table (weapon, armor, food) here, it would get cluttered and heavily unreadable. If you want to compare different food, go to.. Oh well, Food? If you want to compare Swords, go to... Swords. Every page has it's purpose and it's own set of information and I believe we should avoid of trying to compress everything to single page, because it would hurt the readability of that page.

 * What exactly should this page do in your opinion? It sounds to me like you want this list to contain every bit of information you'd ever want to look up.
 * This way of doing the list makes everything so much easier to maintain, this wiki already has a lot of information and not having to write the same stats on multiple pages is a vital to maintain accuracy. (Linkitch (talk) 17:32, 20 April 2019 (UTC))
