Is this page redundant since we have workshops? --Mizipzor 14:28, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

Eventually, we'll probably want a page for each workshop. Workshops should just be a category, IMO. --Peristarkawan 14:48, 30 October 2007 (EDT)
Good thinking, ill turn all the workshop names into links in the workshop page to indicate that. --Mizipzor 16:16, 31 October 2007 (EDT)
Yeah, having all the information on a single page doesn't work in the long run (E.g. stones, workshops, but if you look at the old wiki we had templates for each building which I thought worked quite well. Think from the perspective of a user who wants a single snippet of information; "What does the quern do"... we shouldn't force them to read through all the other workshop types. --Markavian
Tiniest tinyness... ? That's gotta change at some point! I thought I'd build one before editing this page. --Markavian

Differences

What's the difference between a quern and a mill? Is the mill faster, or require less overall labor?

things not to mill

Is it possible to prevent milling of certain plants, like, wheat yes, sweet cups no? a menu like the z-kitchen-cook/brew? Only way i can think of is forbidding the barrel with the not to mill plants, but my dwarfs are intent on piling it all in one barrel. (Can i prevent that by forbidding mix food?) Or having a strict planting order so only one plant is available at a season, but that limits to 4 crops a year ...same thing with processing too--Koltom 13:25, 12 February 2008 (EST)

why don't you want your dimple cups milled? isn't that required for the dye?--Eerr 13:13, 7 August 2008 (EDT)
