Talk:Modding

Changes with new release

Currently we have

• Modding
• Modding guide -> Modding
• Mod -> Category:Mods
• Mods -> DF2014:List of mods
• Modding version 50.01+ temp

Any thoughts on how this should be handled with new release?

---

With the new content this article will soon be overwhelmed and be hard to navigate in. I think:

• The modding guide section has enough content to warrant am entry on its own
  • Rename Modding -> Modding guide to preserve editing history. And remove editing resources stuff.

• We should have a modding portal that covers all relevant resources (documentation, resources, advice, guides, etc)
• We should have an entry level access for people just looking to use mods.
  • I don't belive we have enough content for both, so I suggest Rename Modding version 50.01+-> Modding.
  • Alternativly we can rename Modding version 50.01+-> Mod and move editing resources stuff modding.

I'm for all of the above, as well as the second option for renaming Modding version 50.01+ to mod. In previous versions/namespaces having an article for "mod" separate from "modding" didn't make much sense, since the mods weren't seen as units by the game, but rather were just collections of modded raws. That having changed, I think having one is warranted.

I don't have much familiarity with wiki portals, do you propose modding should be the portal, or should there exist a separate article?
