	I retained the single sentence of sensible advice all of that nonsense boils down to -- which is that consistency is useful, and avoiding ''extreme'' cases of potential death-by-typo is a good idea.

		+	Oh, as for the changes on [[version\|#version]]: I didn't remove half the content of the article, if you weight it by how useful information is. I removed one blatant "filler" sentence and an unnecessary example -- anyone can try the command on their own and get output that is actually ''relevant'' to them! I disagree that such a change requires any discussion at all.
		+
		+	You seem to think that ''small articles are inherently bad'', and that removing content is always a bad thing. This isn't true: an article that is to-the-point and relevant to its readers is a lot nicer than one that was half-heartedly expanded on in an attempt to fill the page. Sometimes commands ''are'' simple to explain completely: why write anything but simple articles about them? [[User:Nooodl\|Nooodl]] ([[User talk:Nooodl\|talk]]) 04:00, 15 December 2015 (UTC)

		+	Hi, NeonKow!
		+
		+	I understand why my edit seemed a bit drastic, but the text, as-is, contained some really ridiculous suggestions that I don't believe contribute to the wiki at all. (Putting your [[stethoscope]] on <tt>Y</tt> because it looks like a stethoscope?! Come on.)

-'''N'ara''' loses her pet dog to rothes while decending the dungeons of doom. She then decides to put on a large shield without curse-testing it first and winds up with a ''-4 cursed shield of unhelpfulness'', and being forced to drop a lot of extra projectiles to avoid being burdened. After being attacked down to 6 HP and successfully praying to escape death on dlvl6, she goes back up the levels to find that the itchy shield also prevents healing, which is why her god didn't restore her HP.

 She heads down toward Minetown, slaughtering the gnome population as she goes, in hopes of creating holy water to remove the shield and cursed boots she is also wearing (AC 3 though). She gets there but a gnome decides to read an unfamiliar scroll that surrounds the both of them with about 6 other monsters, and she spends a good amount of time turning the resulting hostiles into ''hedgehogs of +2 elven arrows'', even recruiting a large cat (which dies) and a pony (that she accidentally kills). Eventually, with her back against the wall in a room with one exit, N'ara faces off a naga. She brandishes her wand of striking and hits! only to also strike a Watchman in the background. Injured and unable to escape the angry man, and hoping to avoid murdering a peaceful, she zaps her wand of digging downward...

 Die to angering shopkeeper, or not paying attention to hit points. If she makes it past the early game, she will cut through everything like butter, until my poor valkyrie invariably dies to mind-flayer.

 Yes, I know other rangers may be stronger, but I play this for flavor, and I like it! Usually my ranger die to my not knowing how to steer them well to deal with melee hostiles.
