Right now, we have [[Vortex]] as the ability but [[Vortex (Lance)]] as the item, contrasted with [[Glacier]] and [[Deep Freeze]] as the items and [[Glacier ( | Right now, we have [[Vortex]] as the ability but [[Vortex (Lance)]] as the item, contrasted with [[Glacier]] and [[Deep Freeze]] as the items and [[Glacier (Command)]] and [[Deep Freeze (Command)]] as the abilities. Also, [[Balloon]] as the ability, and [[Balloon (item)]] as the item. There's also [[Explosion]], which has three different, similar abilities all parsed, with no clear reason why they aren't one single article. | ||
We need to determine what the process is for determining which articles get the main title and which get parsers, and we need to set a task to go through all the parsed articles, confirm that they are parsed and, if applicable, disambigged correctly.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 10:03, 23 April 2016 (UTC) | We need to determine what the process is for determining which articles get the main title and which get parsers, and we need to set a task to go through all the parsed articles, confirm that they are parsed and, if applicable, disambigged correctly.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 10:03, 23 April 2016 (UTC) | ||

::I think we should make a list of categories, like "ability" and "weapon", and order it by priority. So, every time we get a name with multiple uses, we can look at the list and use the name without parser for the thing that is higher on the list, and use parsers for all other things. I think we should also have more consistency in capitalization of parsers. For example, we capitalize "Command" and "Lance", but not "ability" or "shield". I think we should capitalize all parsers or none. {{User:TheSilentHero/Sig}} 14:55, 23 April 2016 (UTC) | ::I think we should make a list of categories, like "ability" and "weapon", and order it by priority.

:::I'd prefer capitalizing none. Also, I think parsers like "Lance" shouldn't exist; the name of the page should be Vortex (weapon). If we make a priority list, I'd go with the general order, plot-oriented articles > techniques > items > other gameplay stuff > real-life/game articles/merchandise. {{User:TheFifteenthMember/Sig1}} 15:09, 23 April 2016 (UTC) | :::I'd prefer capitalizing none.
