Forums: Index > The Keeper Compound > Merge Thief DS City areas with main pages
Should I merge the Thief DS-only City Area pages like OM TDS South Quarter and OM TDS Fort Ironwood to their main pages at South Quarter and Fort Ironwood?
Many such examples here. These links will also have to be re-pointed.
I feel its redundant to keep 2 articles about the same thing, since anyways we should build up on the common knowledge-base instead of separating it unnecessarily per game.
Also, any content unique to a specific game T1/T2/T3 can be categorized using headers/sub headers, on the same article.

- The OM pages are individual game mission only pages, the Location pages span all games and are informational and not meant to be game-play related.
- And Thief:_Deadly_Shadows is a page for the game missions and will need to be reverted back to the 'mission order' that it was before. The Locations in the Thief universe are either Category:Location or The City not the game pages, and can be linked to from the game pages.
- This isn't Wikipedia, we're not trying to cram everything on one page. Sxerks 16:50, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
- I feel the categorizing idea of game content is a good one. That way, people who are only interested in e.g. T2 (I'm sure they exist) may go to a category page for their game and see everything related to it.
- Otherwise agreeing with Sxerks, even though I suspect Dr. Jenkins has a lot of wikia management experience... But I am curious to know what's meant by the "common knowledge-base"?

- Well, for now, I'll just contend with adding a "Main article [City page name]" to each Game-specific city area page, therefore informing users that theres more to read about this city area.... until the Keepers decide!
