Where to put the appearance information in rewritten entity pages? -- Naista2002  ♦   05:39, 16 October 2014 (UTC)


 * New discussions about article layout should occur on the style guide talk page, not here. KnightMiner has recently raised the subject in the Mob articles section but no consensus was reached. &mdash;munin &middot; Grid_Book_and_Quill.png Grid_Stone_Pickaxe.png &middot; 06:37, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

Mob pages
Instead of writing "A wither skeleton may drop 0-1 coal, 0-2 bones, have a rare chance of dropping the stone sword" I think that using a table is better:

 * Ideas include: Mob → Module:DropsTable → Module:DropsTable/MobDrops. A template is given a mob name, which is passed to the template. It reads the info from mob drops sub-module and builds a table based on that. I'm somewhat good with Lua. -- Naista2002  ♦ Grid Book and Quill.png Grid Iron Pickaxe.png 13:34, 21 October 2014 (UTC)


 * I prefer the text a little, as the table either requires quite a few columns (item, drop chance, three columns for looting chances, when it is dropped), or would just be redundant as to the infobox. (everything from that table is in the infobox only somewhat more compact). If a table is to be used, it needs to be designed in a way to avoid being too large and dropping below the infobox on smaller screens. –KnightMiner  (talk) 14:40, 21 October 2014 (UTC)
