Talk:Plugins Draft by Spades

• Clinking a link in the alphabetical list should jump down to the plug-in entry in the categorized list rather than having a direct download link (like it was on the old page). Having the direct download link listed on the page multiple times will be a maintenance nightmare.
• Having a general/recommended category kind of defeats the purpose of organizing the plug-ins in the first place. If I go to the Trading/Mining category, for example, I would expect to find TradeAssistant listed there. Instead, you could have a recommended plug-ins list that links to the entries in the categorized list (like the alphabetized list).
• The Interface category is getting to be quite long. I recommend breaking navigation and cargo into separate categories.
• Ditto on the Communication/Player Interaction category. It would be better to split it up into two categories: Communication and Notifications.

Wow, I was expecting to get criticism for the whole 'categories' thing, but not of such a constructive nature. Thank you for surprising me in a positive way Choco :)

• I thought about that a lot, but since now the plugins are organized in tables rather than in sub-chapters linking to the entries themselves is not that easy. One possible way of doing it would be including anchors in the table, but that again would make it harder for a wiki-inexperienced user to add a plugin, and it would make the code look quite a bit more messy. Alternatively I could create another template that already includes an anchor which would be a little less messy. Or do you maybe have any other ideas?
• Again we face the problem mentioned above. Linking to the table entry... God my brain is beginning to melt thinking of possibilities.
• That's a rather nice idea and can easily be achieved :) I'll see to it within the next few hours.
• Dito. Hehe.
