should there be a "slots required" attribute and a "LP/Hr per attention point per slot" calculation. At my current int it seems important to maximize the effectiveness of the entire space. -bajuba

Quality formula

It should be noted that the Quality formula is the same thing with the base LP being the Quality Modifier. This might make a better reference for new players looking at this page and get familiar with how the whole quality thing works.

Curiosity/Foraged category organization

Why is candleberry listed as a curio? Not once but twice. I don't mean as an ingredient either. I don't know how to go about fixing that on this type of table... Lando242 05:44, 24 April 2012 (EDT)

Erm. Its intentional. Considering there is a "All Curiosities" table and a separate "Forageable Curiosities" table. (PS: Take note of the fact that I'm kinda suspicious towards users with 3 or 4 trailing digits in the name.) --MvGulik 10:00, 24 April 2012 (EDT)
(removed(by Spork) commend from Spork.)
Aha. Down side of dropping additional irrelevant data ("Not once but twice") is that your message has a higher change of being misinterpreted. (at least by me). ... Guess I have to look into the script part. Bummer. (mmm, looks like some category issue.) --MvGulik 05:31, 25 April 2012 (EDT)
Sorry if I wasn't clear. Candleberry isn't a curiosity, you can't study it to earn LPs. That what I meant. And since the table seems to be generated from an outside file I wasn't sure how to edit it myself to make the correction. Lando242 15:49, 25 April 2012 (EDT)

Problem: Curiosity category is using general categories for is data collection (bad idea). Have to think about this a bit for possible solutions. Suggestions are welcome. --MvGulik 12:47, 25 April 2012 (EDT)

Can't select specific elements that are in both Foraged and Curiosity categories at the same time I'm guessing. Probably shouldn't create a new category to only list Forged Curiosities. Anyway, I'm wondering if I should add the short pages important to this page such as Learning Points, Study Interface, Mental Weight to the Category: Content because I don't think they don't have much use elsewhere. Well, Learning Points is used for other things. --Deadguy60 07:53, 24 May 2012 (EDT)
For new pages I like to suggest starting with them as a personal pages (ergo: under your own NameSpace.). After they a more or less finished they can be moved into the main wiki if needed/useful. Category: Mmm, I don't know yet. ... --MvGulik 09:04, 24 May 2012 (EDT)
New page? Probably not at all what you're thinking but the short pages that I have listed could actually go on a page called Curiosity Related Information and they would each have their own section/separator(I don't know what to call this) so less clutter possibly. --Deadguy60 19:43, 24 May 2012 (EDT)

Erm, right. Was thinking that pages in sup-category's also would show up, by default, in there parent category.
But that's not the case. (looked at wrong page as example) The Curiosity category is listing all pages from its sup-category pages because there were also added to this parent-category by the metaobj script. ... darn.
  • name "Curiosity Foraged": Leading "Curiosity *" tag is nice as clear leading tag, but makes it kinda long to. And "Curiosity" is already in the category bar of the object page.

... --MvGulik 05:49, 11 June 2012 (EDT)

Grammar wise, 'Foraged Curiosities' would make sense. Though I can see the organisation benefits of leading with Curiosity. Perhaps simply a Foraged Curiosities, Crafted Curiosities, Miscellaneous (or Misc.) Curiosities, all categorised as Curiosity? Because as it stands this is an English wiki, and in sentence fragments nouns are almost always preceded by their correlating adjective. Just a thought. Nice work you've been doing though, cheers. :) Foetuses [talk][cont.] 09:30, 11 June 2012 (EDT)
