We don't need the look of every shelf in the shop -- it makes the page too cluttered. ----Isharon 02:49, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
- I disagree. We should be cataloging everything about the shop, a la DR Future Past. --Thilan 03:13, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
- Elanthipedia isn't DR Future Past, and that style would be inconsistent with the hundreds of shop pages that are already online. We archive what most people are interested in knowing: shop location, shop type, room description, items, and prices. I don't think that too many people are interested in reading fluff descriptions of shelves, and I think that the interest of maintaining a clean-looking page outweighs the interest of posting paragraph-long shelf descriptions in the ShopHeader block. If you really want to post the descriptions of the shelves, post them under their own header ("Shop Aethetics") at the bottom of the article. It's not integrated, but it keeps the useful section easy to read while archiving information that may be of some interest to a few players. --Isharon 06:07, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
