SLASH'EM items & monsters
One thing I haven't seen anywhere is a list of items and monsters that are new in SLASH'EM. Now, as we don't even have articles for all NetHack items and monsters yet, it would feel a bit stupid to start adding all SLASH'EM ones in, IMHO. So, maybe one of you SLASH'EM players could create articles called List of new monsters in SLASH'EM and List of new items in SLASH'EM? The format for each would be a table, perhaps in the following manner:
Monster | Symbol | Level | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
Cockatrice | c | 5 | Stones you |
Foo | f | 123 |
and
Item | Symbol | Base type | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
Stormbringer | ) | Broadsword | Artifact. Drains levels. |
Bar | ( | Fortune cookie |
excluding Stormbringer and cockatrice, of course, as they are present in the vanilla NetHack. If needed later, the item names here could be made links and separate articles for each could be created. --ZeroOne 12:39, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
- (I am wondering, though, why do some wiki editors seem to like "list of" articles? Why not new monsters in SLASH'EM and new items in SLASH'EM? --Kernigh 16:09, 5 September 2006 (UTC))
- I like this idea. I think the preference for "List of" article names comes from a vague idea that such a list is not a proper article, merely a kind of redirect or index, and hence should be marked as such. We could call the article SLASH'EM bestiary, but bestiary pretty much means "list of monsters".... I would go with "List of" if I had to choose, but I don't have that strong an opinion of it one way or the other. --Jayt 01:13, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
