Ok, I'm a bit torn about the languages setup. I personally think that in the page titles there should not be any "The"s or something redundant like Lanuage unless it's necessary. I would like to take all the language pages and move them to "Anglic", "Kentos", "Esperanto", etc. I'm going to quit creating new ones until I get someone elses opinion on this. Also, I tried moving "The Latin Lanuage" page to just "Latin", but it can't because it says that page already exists. It redirects to the current page. Not sure who/how this is fixed or if we're just stuck with the current title. Ok, I'm a bit torn about the languages setup.

 +I agree with you; I think that skills in general should have their primary page under their short name, with the longer semi-descriptive name being a redirect. I've gotten rid of the redirect from Latin to The Latin language; the trick to editing redirects is to go into edit mode on a different page, then modify the URL in the location bar to have the name of the redirect page. — [[User:Chaos|Chaos]] 15:46, 16 December 2007 (EST)

 +Cool. I've fixed the onces I made today. The pages "<language> Language" could be deleted. I am creating "<language name>" pages with all the language info, and redirecting the "the <language> language" pages to that page. I also created a "Languages" category, but later realized it would be better if the category was "Language Skills". This better facilitates the structure of LS. If you go to the Category:Language Skills page you'll see that it's part of the Category:Skills page. Eventually they'll be a catogory page for each group of skills, which will all be a part of the Category:Skills page. Just like in game. --- [[User:Mort|Mort]] 17:54, 16 December 2007 (EST)
