Current revision

To be finished

1. Fixing this stupid 1st column weirdness. Not proportional in IE7 (although others are).
2. Seeing if all the [[really long blah|blah]] can be reduced in size. With redirects up for many of them, lots are probably unnecessary.
3. Fixing out-of-date skills and skill names (necromantic resistance, etc).
4. Filling in final gaps/seeing if anything else is missing
• Some resistance skills
• Flight is a skill, and a trait...stuff like that

1 - Column weirdness seems to be an IE7 or Wiki problem -- tables won't even take colgroup. I should be able to do something like:

<colgroup span="3">
<col width="33%"></col>
<col width="33%"></col>
<col width="34%"></col>
</colgroup>
...

to fix column width proportionally, but it won't render, it just displays the actual text. HTML, I hate you.

2-Took out all the [[really long blah|blah]] that I could already. Note there's plenty left.

--Most languages have no direct reference. There's only 'the X language' and no page for 'X' where X is a language. Given our recent shift to having categories etc, I decided not to do anything about this since these pages already clearly spell out what the page is for.

Skill names etc need me to login, so that's it for now.

The capitalization issue

Yes, we (me) do care. After a few comments in OOC, changing them all to Telesmatic Weapon -style. Also going through all links and changing them to point to the "correct" one, though will still leave reditects in place.

Recently a bunch of skills got new skill classes and some new skill classes happened, so a lot of these are in the complete wrong section, and some are missing completely, can someone with much better wiki-fu help prettify this?
