::(Side discussions: Trap design is long because there are a lot of traps on there, but I think the categories make for easy browsing, and I like that people have felt so free to edit in their own traps. If you notice, there are frequently links to user pages and forum threads for when an idea needs more detail than can be provided in an overview page like [[trap design]]. I am not familiar with this modern usage of "sally port" and I recommend you check out the talk page of the wikipedia article you reference, or just ask google for a definition, to see how little consensus there is on this definition. As for what I'd name this-- I guess if I felt that the principle of bridge-based containment needed to be made explicit, I'd put a section in trap design about "containment" and discuss why bridges are better than doors, and what you can do after you get something into containment. Devices with two bridges, designed to make protected entrances, are typically referred to, on forums and on this wiki, as airlocks.) | ::(Side discussions: Trap design is long because there are a lot of traps on there, but I think the categories make for easy browsing, and I like that people have felt so free to edit in their own traps.

::Anyhow, it's not a vitally important issue to me; would love to hear your thoughts on the best way to handle individual trap designs on the wiki. --[[User:Vasiln|Vasiln]] ([[User talk:Vasiln|talk]]) 05:47, 5 March 2014 (UTC) | ::Anyhow, it's not a vitally important issue to me; would love to hear your thoughts on the best way to handle individual trap designs on the wiki. --[[User:Vasiln|Vasiln]] ([[User talk:Vasiln|talk]]) 05:47, 5 March 2014 (UTC) | ||
