:How about splitting it into individual pages? That's what we do on Wikipedia when a page gets extremely large. It doesn't take up significant extra space in the database, it'll be easier to manage, and this way the "worse" stories can be largely ignored without going through the heartache of deleting anything near to someone's heart. Personally, the "story" of the dwarves is the main draw of playing this game for me (that, and cool architecture).

Should this really be here? I think we should clear it out, no sense in having stories about the old version. --Roberto 18:37, 30 October 2007 (EDT)
- I agree, blast it. --Infinity 06:00, 31 October 2007 (EDT)
- The stories don't really change, honestly. I think they should stay. Also, would anyone be terribly offended at a link to the epic of Boatmurdered on this page? --The Good Professor 22:37, 5 November 2007 (EST)
- Not at all. The epic of Boatmurdered is epic and DF.
- Also, I suggest that we delete a lot of the stories in here but keep the rest. Some, like "Parabolart's Carpenter," "A small problem" (whose image, which exists only on the old wiki, shows a permaflooded game), and "Next time, don't stand on it" are just plain bad, and others, like "Kerligmosus" and "A Love Story" aren't really even stories.
- However, some stories, like "A Carpenters Dream" are well-written stories (if you ignore the grammer) and could be made from a game on any version of DF.
- This does bring up the question of "how can I determine the quality of this story fairly," which isn't easy to answer. However, the only two alternatives to this that I see are to delete a lot of good stories or to keep a lot of junk. --Savok 22:54, 5 November 2007 (EST)
- I think the stories should stay perhaps create a category for longer stories Jikor
- The stories should stay--Nerd10101 02:24, 9 December 2007 (EST)
I think the stories currently here could be archived to an older page and this page could be started again, it is getting rather large.--Arnos 11:36, 1 January 2008 (EST)
