:::Look - first, don't edit a discussion - it throws everything that comes after off. If you didn't say what you mean, then just post and correct, not edit. <br />Anyway, "strictly" means "exclusively", as in "no exceptions" - what about "remains"? That is the first use of a refuse stockpile, a place for dwarves to dump rats and roaches. Last I checked, those are not "valuable", and so there goes your "strictly". More examples do not refute this exception. To not use one requires a visual scan for dead vermin, and then they get dumped in whatever current dump zone you have active. Other than that, you're preaching to the choir.--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 04:08, 29 September 2009 (UTC) | :::Look - first, don't edit a discussion - it throws everything that comes after off.

− | :::: Well, normally I would agree with you that discussions should be edited, but since you've invited the world at large to see our discussion by saying "(For a longer discussion on this, see Talk page: Refuse Stockpile vs. Dumping Zone)" on the main page, I thought that clarification was necessary to avoid confusing the masses that will come here. Anyway, you're right, I concede your point since I forgot that the cats are always moving remains of vermin to stockpiles and not to dumping zones. This does raise a separate question perhaps you can answer that I posted below. | + | :::: Well, normally I would agree with you that discussions should be edited, but since you've invited the world at large to see our discussion by saying "(For a longer discussion on this, see Talk page: Refuse Stockpile vs. Dumping Zone)" on the main page, I thought that clarification was necessary to avoid confusing the masses that will come here.

− | Does anyone have any tips on refuse hauling? I have a refuse pit, quite close to my food stockpile but separated by doors. However, the dwarves will often leave the corpses of vermin lying around my food stockpile, generating [[miasma]] in the food stockpile, when I'd far rather they just cleaned up more quickly. Sometimes it helps to mark the vermin corpses for [[dump]]ing, but I'm not patrolling the food stockpile six times a season to look for corpses! Is there any way to make the dwarves prioritise [[ | + | Does anyone have any tips on refuse hauling? I have a refuse pit, quite close to my food stockpile but separated by doors.

:You could always give the cleaning labor to some peasants. You could have the entire floor as a retractable bridge, so you could dump all the rubbish below. --[[User:AlexFili|AlexFili]] 07:25, 16 June 2008 (EDT) | :You could always give the cleaning labor to some peasants.

I think the term "cleanup" is misleading because it implies that a dwarf with the [[Cleaning]] labor is going to do something. Would "disappear" or "disapperate" or even "delete" work instead? The items basically are rotting away into dust, and completely disappear from the stocks—which is certainly useful to know when you've got a gazillion hoary marmot bones lying about in your refuse stocks and need to make room for those really [[Creature|valuable]] dragon bones.
