==Author's Note==<br />
These are fairly typical city guards, hired and trained to keep order in the city. They are issued better equipment than those in the countryside and tend to see more action than quiet towns. They are also more experienced in detecting when a suspect is bluffing and watching for anything suspicious. In a poorer city cheeper armour such as chain shirt may have to suffice. If a situation requires they have access to shields and other suplys from the garrisons, though these aren't normaly carried for standard patrol duty.<br />

==Traps?==<br />
Just found this site through the roleplaying tips newsletter. Looks interesting, but we need more content I think. I made a contribution to the deities section with Sarem. Where might I put an entry on some simple traps? I can't see a good place to put them.<br />
<br />
==Knowledge Arcana==<br />
I'm working with Dave on this. This article is currently slated for 3-5 issues out. That means that we have the article in the development pipeline, but we do not yet have a home for it.<br />

== New Server ==<br />
<br />
DanDWiki has recently undergone a major change in its configuration. I have moved the server from being hosted by [http://www.godaddy.com GoDaddy] to my own server. The site should be quite a bit faster now. <br />
<br />
--[[User:Blue Dragon|Blue Dragon]] 22:42, 29 April 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
== Deleting DnD Vehicles ==<br />
<br />
I am going to be deleting DnD Vehicles, as I see no reason for it. D&D is ''not'' like D20 Modern where vehicles are a big deal. If anyone ever actually makes a vehicle it can go in [[DnD Other]]. A new section is not needed, although if more than 5 vehicles are put in [[DnD Other]] then I consider making a new section. Deleted the it. --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 13:19, 12 June 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
:That was my idea, Green_Dragon. --[[User:Pz.Az.04Maus|Pz.Az.04Maus]] 13:29, 12 June 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
::Yes, I know, I just think that it has no reason to be there. Put the vehicles you make in [[DnD Other]], if enough are made, then a DnD Vehicles can be made. --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 13:50, 12 June 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
:::I'm thinking of adding my friends airship template into here, it's rather cool, and i'll be making sandships shortly. --[[User:Shadethedemon|Shadethedemon]] 0:30, 06 August 2006 (NewYork time)<br />
<br />
:::: Enough vehicles for a new section? --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 21:33, 3 October 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
::::: Why not put them under [[DnD Equipment]]? &mdash;[[User:Sledged|Sledged]] 18:08, 7 October 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
:::::: Very good idea, I think that would work well. --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 22:36, 8 October 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
::::::: Yeah it is, should I just make the Vehicle header when I put it up? --[[User:Shadethedemon|DeadlyNightShade]] 08:37, 14 October 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
:::::::: Yes, just make a new section when you put your first vehicle on D&D Wiki. --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 11:33, 15 October 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
== Template Links ==<br />
<br />
Shouldn't links to the templates be within the respective subject pages (e.g. Link to the NPC template on the [[DnD NPCs|NPCs page]], link to the PrC template on the [[DnD Classes|PrCs page]], etc...)?<br />
<br />
: Yes they should, I just have not got around to putting them in their places... Would you like to? Or should I when I am not doing something else on the site? --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 09:47, 30 September 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
:: I'd say whoever has time to do them first. I've put it on my TODO list. Would you like to keeps the links on D&D page, in addition to having them in their respective pages, or no? &mdash;[[User:Sledged|Sledged]] 13:18, 30 September 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
::: No, get rid of the links from this page.... Just makes it more confusing and look worse. --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 18:58, 30 September 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
:::: Does that look better? --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 11:05, 1 October 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
::::: Looks great! &mdash;[[User:Sledged|Sledged]] 12:02, 2 October 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
== Merge Class Pages ==<br />
<br />
I think classes and PrCs should be merged together. Is anyone opposed to such an idea? &mdash;[[User:Sledged|Sledged]] 11:00, 5 October 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
: I don't think I really want that. I consider PrC's very different from Classes, and I don't see any reason why it would be good to merge them. What is your reason for wanting this? --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 19:31, 5 October 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
:: The foremost reason is the same for why I want to merge the pages dealing with special abilities in the SRD. It does little good to separate out items that fall under the same category. Next, though you may consider PrCs different, others may not feel the same, and the fact of the matter is that PrCs '''are''' classes. Lastly, I think it would be good to have some consistancy with how the classes are laid out. Base classes and NPC classes are grouped together on one page, but PrCs are on another. They should either each have their own page&mdash;one for base classes, one for NPC classes, and one for PrCs&mdash;or they should all be under one page. I'd prefer the latter just to cut down on the number of pages. &mdash;[[User:Sledged|Sledged]] 19:28, 6 October 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
::: I consider PrC's very different from classes. The reason I believe that it would be good to have a separate page for PrC's is because when many people come here they would not consider PrC's to be under Classes, and they would then assume that D&D Wiki has no PrC's. However, on the other hand, it would help to merge Classes and PrC's, it would create one less thing on [[Dungeons and Dragons]]. Still, however, I believe that visitors would have a hard time finding the PrC's. I think most people do not consider PrC's to be Classes. --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 12:13, 7 October 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
:::: What if the link was qualified like so:<br />
<br />
::::* [[DnD Classes|Classes]] (Base, Prestige, and NPC)<br />
<br />
:::: &mdash;[[User:Sledged|Sledged]] 13:20, 7 October 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
::::: I was thinking about that, but then that one would be the only link with black words after it, making it stand out where all the other do not. I still am not sure what a good solution would be. --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 15:53, 7 October 2006 (MDT)<br />

:::::: &mdash;[[User:Sledged|Sledged]] 18:08, 7 October 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
::::::: I think the above way would work very well. By the way, I love some of the description you made. Lastly, when you merge [[DnD Classes|DnD Prestige Classes]] into [[DnD Classes]] please make a seperate section for Classes, PrC's, and NPCs. I hope all goes well with this new way. --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 22:40, 8 October 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
:::::::: I'm glad you're amused. I was hoping they'd get a chuckle. I threw in a lot of the descriptions simply so we could see how they'd look, and I was having trouble thinking of clear and concise descriptions using ten words or less. &mdash;[[User:Sledged|Sledged]] 16:42, 9 October 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
::::::::: I must say, they turned out very well. Good job. --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 11:34, 15 October 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
==Getting more people to the site==<br />
<br />
I added a link the this site under the wikipedia article for Dungeons and Dragons. I hope that helps drive some people here.--[[User:Sand-reckoner|Sand-reckoner]] 12:27, 22 October 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
::It looks good, and I hope it does make more people come here. Thanks for doing that. --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 15:53, 22 October 2006 (MDT)<br />
<br />
:::Honestly, it helped a ton. Before the links D&D Wiki was averaging 150 unique visitors per day, now it is averaging 500 unique visitors per day. Thanks again for doing that. --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 14:25, 2 December 2006 (MST)<br />
<br />
::::You know, most of the D&D related articles on Wikipedia (last I checked, anyway), don't have a link to this wiki. I happened to stumble across one that did, which is how I ended up here. If you want more traffic, it would behoove you to put links on as many pages as possible. --[[User:Cuthalion|Cúthalion]] 22:28, 17 February 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
== Design... ==<br />
<br />
Hey guys,<br />
I'm new here, but I registered just to say that this page's design is really not made for all monitors. The descriptions for the sections are too far on the right from the article sections, and quite frankly I didn't notice them at first. By the way, I'm writing from a laptop monitor, and I find it rather hard to read.<br />
<br />
Just a suggestion, but I think you should work the template so that the descriptions are much closer to the article titles. <br />
<br />
Thanks!<br />
--[[User:CDevine|CDevine]] 19:31, 1 December 2006 (MST)<br />
<br />
:Thanks for the feedback. How bad is it? Do you have to scroll to see the descriptions? What browser are you using. &mdash;[[User:Sledged|Sledged]] 19:52, 1 December 2006 (MST)<br />
<br />
::I have a fairly large monitor on my desktop PC, (21 inch) and it is a bit of a pain to look over to the far other site to find the description. I think this is what CDevine is talking about, the large gap of nothing between the links and the descriptions. So, I would also say it would not hurt to change it round. Any ideas of how to make it look good, make it easy to find what one is looking for, ''and'' make sure the Dungeons and Dragons page does not get to long? --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 14:22, 2 December 2006 (MST)<br />

== New D&D DM help page ==<br />
<br />
Yeah sorry if Im posting this in the wrong place, but I'd like to propose an Idea: My Idea is to put up an editable space in the site where more seasoned DM's could post some useful tricks of the trade which they think newer DM's might be able to use. just an idea {{unsigned|Tjaden|2007-01-15, 18:00:03}}<br />
<br />
: Right now the place for that kind of material is [[DnD Other|Other]]. &mdash;[[User:Sledged|Sledged]] 17:09, 15 January 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
::Thats correct, other is the place for such a thing. --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 18:37, 15 January 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
== Open Game License Content? ==<br />
<br />
There's lots of open game license content out there we could host. Should we integrate it? How do we want to integrate it? Do we want an Open Game License (OGL) namespace? Do we want namespaces for each source? What's the best practice? --[[User:Dmilewski|Dmilewski]] 12:47, 10 February 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
:For the moment just add it like normal with the correct templates and a locked page. OGL content is treated as normal content that cannot be edited except for formatting. --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 14:05, 10 February 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
::I like the idea of an OGL namespace, although I'm not sure I could articulate why. --[[User:Cuthalion|Cúthalion]] 07:59, 16 February 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
:::I could. OGC from marketed products have a different weight (for lack of a better term) to them than, the user contributions. This is partly because we like to think that said products have gone though several review process and have been play-tested (whether or not this is actually the case). Because of this, people will tend to favor them over other material (except for possibly their own). Personally, I was thinking instead of having a OGL namespace, have one namespace for each publisher that produces d20 and d20M OGC (e.g. WotC, WW (White Wolf), MG (Mongoose), GR (Green Ronin), SP (Sovern Press), etc...). And all the OGC they've published would go under their respective namespaces (except, of course, for the SRD and the MSRD which already have their own namespaces). &mdash;[[User:Sledged|Sledged]] ([[User talk:Sledged|talk]]) 15:55, 16 February 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
:::Hm... For now I say keep it as normal namespace, we can change it later once namespace probems are fixed (maybe change the namespace - I am not sure yet). --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 10:32, 16 February 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
== Other => Discussion & Guidelines ==<br />
<br />
"Other" in this context sounds like game mechanics that are not classes, feats, etc., and hence not central to the game. The subtext makes it sound like you'd never want to look there unless you're having trouble sleeping. It's a rare newbie who would bother.<br />
<br />
In practice, most of the [[DnD Other|Other]] contents are discussion or guidelines for development -- exactly what newbies need to read. How about splitting it into three sections:<br />
* Guidelines : guidelines for content creation<br />
* Discussion : general discussion on various topics<br />
* Variant Rules : homebrew content not covered by the other headings (move to [[DnD Rules|existing section]])<br />
<br />
Some additional hierarchy might also be helpful. Something like:<br />
<br />
: '''For Players'''<br />
<br />
:* Content<br />
:** Classes<br />
:** Equipment<br />
:** Feats/Flaws<br />
:** Races<br />
:** Spells/Powers<br />
:* Guidelines<br />
:* Discussion<br />
:* Examples<br />
:** Character Optimizations<br />
<br />
: '''For DMs'''<br />
<br />
:* ...<br />
<br />

:That would more closely match the SRD. In general, good observations. Make a full mockup of it. The more complete, the better. When we agree, we'll implement the new landing page directly off the mockup.--[[User:Dmilewski|Dmilewski]] 09:37, 16 February 2007 (MST)<br />

<br />
:::: Fine by me. Ah, I just figured out what you're [[SRD:System_Reference_Document|comparing with]]. --[[User:Cuthalion|Cúthalion]] 20:19, 16 February 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
::::: I like Sledged's suggestions. My only complaint is regarding the naming of "Variant Rules." The name implies that any rules in the category have an analog that they have revised or reworked in some way. In many cases, the material here is actually additional or supplemental rules rather than just variant ones. Could we name the section something more inviting to rules additions? A great example of what I mean is [[Evil Weather (DnD Other)]]. This is not a variant of any existing rules, per se; rather, in is an addition and supplement to the existing rules that provides rules for situations and possibilities currently not adjudicated by the SRD rule set. I propose a title like "Supplementary Rules" to address this (admittedly linguistic and semantic) problem. --[[User:EldritchNumen|EldritchNumen]] 02:29, 17 February 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
:::::: How about now? &mdash;[[User:Sledged|Sledged]] ([[User talk:Sledged|talk]]) 11:42, 17 February 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
:::::::I think that "Rules" should cover all rule articles. Subtitle that "New and Variant Rules". Under that you can have new rules, variant rules, commentary on rules, etc. With the current split, I see confusion about which category a rules article belongs under. --[[User:Dmilewski|Dmilewski]] 11:52, 18 February 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
::::::::I like the suggestion: <br />
<br />
::::::::* [[DnD Rules|Rules]]<div style="font-size: smaller; margin-left: 2em;">New, Supplemental, and Variant Rules</div><br />
<br />
::::::::--[[User:EldritchNumen|EldritchNumen]] 16:38, 20 February 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
:::::::::Also, I would like to see the "For Players" being first, then the "For DM's" and last (far right) being "General". I see content being more important than the general material, what do you think? --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 10:27, 26 February 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
::::::::::It looks good with the general on the right. &mdash;[[User:EldritchNumen|EldritchNumen]] 15:40, 27 February 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
:::::::::::What do you guys think of a TODO link being present in the "general" category? --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 18:35, 27 February 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
:::::::::::: I think it's fine there, but I hate how it's cap-locked. Is there any reason why it does not read "To-Do List"? In any case, it is good to have somewhere, and it would fit best either there (in the menu) or perhaps in the discussion section (i.e. as a user-created, dynamic list of jobs to be done around the wiki). &mdash;[[User:EldritchNumen|EldritchNumen]] 15:14, 28 February 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
:::::::::::::"''Do the dog.''" It's funny (in context with the "''Walk the taxes''"), but maybe not the best choice for the main Dungeons and Dragons page. Other than that I think it is ready to be made then implemented. --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 20:41, 28 February 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
::::::::::::::Agreed. We should either change it to "prepare the dog" or ex it entirely. &mdash;[[User:EldritchNumen|EldritchNumen]] 01:09, 1 March 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
:::::::::::::::Alright, now it's just time to make the pages... --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 13:07, 3 March 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
::::::::::::::::And move everything from [[DnD Other]] to more appropriate pages (and/or assign them to more applicable categories). &mdash;[[User:Sledged|Sledged]] ([[User talk:Sledged|talk]]) 11:43, 8 March 2007 (MST)<br />
<br />
:::::::::::::::::Sledged, would you mind dealing with [[DnD Guidelines|Guidelines]] as you have the most knowledge in this area? --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 12:02, 23 March 2007 (MDT)<br />
<br />
::::::::::::::::::Done. All guidelines (or my best estimation of what are guidelines) are now [[DnD Guidelines|Guidelines]]. &mdash;[[User:Sledged|Sledged]] ([[User talk:Sledged|talk]]) 14:29, 25 March 2007 (MDT)<br />
<br />
:::::::::::::::::::Thank you ''':)'''. --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 20:03, 25 March 2007 (MDT)<br />
<br />
::::::::::::::::::::New landing page is on &mdash; I hope it is better. --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 13:41, 8 April 2007 (MDT)<br />
<br />
Question: How do we want the layout of [[DnD Rules]] to look? Also, which rules will be labeled as variant and which will be labeled as supplemental? --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 13:15, 11 March 2007 (MDT)<br />
<br />
:I don't think it will really matter. Let's just call them all PAGENAME (DnD Rule). It should be obvious which are new and which are variants, I think... &mdash;[[User:EldritchNumen|EldritchNumen]] 16:04, 12 March 2007 (MDT)<br />
<br />
::Hm... See, I was thinking it might be nice to separate DnD Rules into two separate columns; one for variant rules and the other for supplement rules. However, all the categories would need to be changed etc. Also, I agree that (DnD Rule) should be the identifier. What do you think? --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 23:49, 12 March 2007 (MDT)<br />
<br />
:::When implementing the new page, can you add a category for Web resources somewhere? There's lots of good tools out there on the web related to D&D.--[[User:Dmilewski|Dmilewski]] 07:32, 21 March 2007 (MDT)<br />
<br />
::::Let's have it be PAGENAME (DnD Rule), and then use categories: <nowiki>[[Category:Variant Rule]]</nowiki> and <nowiki>[[Category:Supplemental Rule]]</nowiki>. And, as Doug mentioned, we should have <nowiki>[[Category:Web Resource]]</nowiki>. Using the categories we can split the list in two like you (and I) prefer, but still can have all the page names followed by simply (DnD Rule). &mdash;[[User:EldritchNumen|EldritchNumen]]<br />
<br />
:::::Okay, if we are going to include Web Recourses in [[DnD Rules]] than should we have three columns, one for Supplement Rules, another for Variant Rules, and a final one for Web Resources? --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 17:31, 27 March 2007 (MDT)<br />
<br />
::::::Actually, the place for Web Resources is probably under Guidelines, since it would largely help in "creating [and balancing] wiki content." I would think that Rules should probably just have the two columns... what does everyone else think? &mdash;[[User:EldritchNumen|EldritchNumen]] 19:30, 27 March 2007 (MDT)<br />
<br />
:::::::I agree now. Makes sense. --[[User:Green Dragon|Green Dragon]] 22:36, 27 March 2007 (MDT)<br />
