==Clutter and abbreviations==
 
What does the CLT thing mean?
 
  
:CLT means that the workshop is cluttered with objects and the dwarves working there will work at a slower pace.  If you press {{k|t}} over the workshop, you can see what's inside the building cluttering it up so that you can haul it away.  This needs to be mentioned somewhere. --[[User:Mechturk|Mechturk]] 01:32, 5 November 2007 (EST)
 
  
::Perhaps a page should be set up for game-used contractions, like CLT, TSK, HAM, SWD etc (the last two from the military/weapons page as further examples).--[[User:Matryx|Matryx]] 05:43, 5 November 2007 (EST)
 
 
:::TSK is kinda obviously "task" and HAM SWD etc are, in the context used, obviously weapons.
 
:::I did import and revise the [[clutter]] page, though. --[[User:Savok|Savok]] 20:26, 6 November 2007 (EST)
 
 
::::I dont think ''everything'' is obvious to ''everyone''. I vote for a [[contractions]]. --[[User:Mizipzor|Mizipzor]] 05:11, 7 November 2007 (EST)
 
 
:::::While I agree not everything is obvious, I feel that it might be more productive for the contractions to redirect to the information page with the context for the abbreviations.  So, HAM SWD etc would redirect to military or another relevant article.  Chances are, if the player hasn't managed to figure out the abbreviation in context, their going to eventually end up there anyway.  --[[User:Mechturk|Mechturk]] 15:10, 8 November 2007 (EST)

Should it really be labelled "Materials needed to build" - in all cases except the fishery there they are actually objects.  Perhaps a 'can be built out of' and 'objects required to build'? --[[User:Matryx|Matryx]] 05:41, 5 November 2007 (EST)

proposed content

Maybe something about what the workshops actually do? --Mizipzor 13:39, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

move Workshops to Workshop

Should this page's title be singluar, in keeping with the rules on the community portal?--BahamutZERO 15:31, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

Probably, if we choose to keep it. However, I'm thinking that this page should really just be a redirect to Category:Workshops. But not until we make sure that all the content here is also in the individual workshop pages. --Peristarkawan 15:35, 30 October 2007 (EDT)
Too bad we can't get the hotkeys in the Category--Vaevictus 15:57, 30 October 2007 (EDT)
Do we need them? There's a perfectly good list of workshops with their hotkeys in the game itself. --Peristarkawan 16:04, 30 October 2007 (EDT)
We could add the shortcut key to that little template thingy on the right. --Mizipzor 21:25, 4 November 2007 (EST)

Either A: We will put many of the workshop descriptions on this page and have those workshop names redirect here, or B: We will delete this page and have any info on this page on the workshop pages.
The old wiki had two sections as an introduction to workshops for newbies, a very brief list of the workshops and what they did, and a list of the workshop walls created by each workshop. Since the two sections would belong in a newbie tutorial page, and the descriptions of the workshops would belong in the workshop pages, workshop needs a {{del}}. --Savok 22:47, 4 November 2007 (EST)

We should make one page for each workshop, add them to category:workshops and {{del}} this page. --Mizipzor 08:12, 6 November 2007 (EST)
Ive made siege workshop and marked that section of the article with strikout. When all sections are marked like this, the page is ready to be made into a redirect to category:workshops. --Mizipzor 05:27, 7 November 2007 (EST)


Material/objects for building workshops

Should it really be labelled "Materials needed to build" - in all cases except the fishery there they are actually objects. Perhaps a 'can be built out of' and 'objects required to build'? --Matryx 05:41, 5 November 2007 (EST)

Someone has detailed that 'still' is short for 'distillery'. This is partially incorrect as a still is actually a completely different word and has a different meaning. A distillery is a an entire establishment (industrial plant and works for example) for distilling things (particularly alcohol) - whereas a still is an apparatus (usually heating/vapour cooling) which would be used inside a distillery to produce alcohol. --Matryx 06:50, 6 November 2007 (EST)

Production Image

Cheese is missing, as is anything to do with pre-thread silk. Additionally, the chain after thread is inconsistent with the rest of the diagram. --Edward 03:22, 29 May 2008 (EDT)

I updated the image to include silk, cheese is already included in food, although it's not quite clear. I am just afraid that naming individual food items is going to create a huge mess. Not sure what you mean that the chain after thread is inconsistent Aeolist 05:47, 22 June 2008 (EDT)
