Category talk:Constellations

For constellations, do we want to add two more items to the template? Additionally do we then want to clean up the rest of the information on the page that has moved to the template?

Level learned & telescope required?

I think that would be a good idea. I would also suggest a field for the general time of year: spring, spring/summer, summer, summer/fall, etc. Its not strictly necessary because of the exact dates field, but it would be in the interests of completeness since many in-game abilities refer to them rather than the exact dates.

Also, some of the constellations are still listing the archaic Offense and Defense as skillsets rather than the modern Weapon and Armor skillsets. I'll let you adjust them since I don't want to horn in on your project and you may already be aware of it and are planning to do it in conjunction with other updates.--Evran 19:31, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

Oh and perhaps include the picture in the template rather than as a separate item? I'm not sure how feasible or necessary that would be.--Evran 19:32, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

Dropped some changes into the template, it's not quite as pretty as I'd like (hopefully someone with more knowledge can fix the alignment). I've changed the Adder (constellation) entry for now and will wait for feedback before doing the rest. --Hithrael 21:56, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

I like how that looks. All the vital info is there, but there's a couple things I'd like to see if possible.

• The color of sphere it creates when cast with Starlight Sphere.
• Subcategories at the bottom broken down by season and skilset. This would allow the entries as a whole to to be more of a starchart resource rather than just an individual constellation resource.
• Alternately, create a 'Starchart' page with a sortable table that has links to achieve a similar effect. (I can do this myself to share the burden if its decided this is the preferred option.)
• A field for just the season. The dates are nice to have and necessary, but its far easier to tell at a glance approx. when a constellation is up by looking at just spring, summer, summer/fall, etc. if the exact dates aren't needed.
