v0.34 Talk:Archery
Reorganization
The wiki is a mess when it comes to ranged archery articles... there's crossbow, crossbowman, ammunition, which solely applies to personal ranged weapon ammunition, no mention much at all on the weapons page about blowguns, although the page in 40d had some mention on them, it's not apparently clear that bows are essentially the same thing as crossbows in terms of combat. Bows have bowman.
Crossbowman and Bowman are too similar in practice. Crossbow has a nice detailed exposition, and it used to also encompass quiver, but it could be amalgamated under crossbowman and fleshed out.
I think separately Bowman and Crossbowman, and quiver with crossbow could be put together in one article such as having all the military trades which use ranged weapons in one article and all the equipment that revolves around archery in one article with the ammunition page as an offshoot.
Archer, or Archery should be the main page which all references to the skill in general should link to as it has all the links to articles which deal with the skill.
Keep articles like:
