Wurmpedia:Items

Items are one of the biggest parts of Wurm. Organizing them also happens to be one of the biggest parts of WurmPedia.

Organization

Items are currently categorized based on the skill used to create them, and in the common Category:Items. This is enforced by Template:Item for created items, manually elsewhere. There is no overall structure to how these categories are in turn categorized. There are other categories, mainly for armour and weapon classes, as well as for non-created items.

We should probably formalize a stable structure. Possibly create an item template for non-created items so they too can benefit from standardization, and reduce manual categorization.

Templates

Created items

Template:Item 

This is the basic template for created items.

There are some faults in the current template, see Template talk:Item for details. Generally the design is stable enough.

=== Non-created items

None 

We could use a template for non-created items. Also needed is a sensible name for it. To throw out a few: Item2, Material, RawItem, Resource.
