Talk:Tarnhill

From DoomWiki.org

Disambiguation is overkill at best[edit]

Given that MAP33 was originally a "deleted scene", not really part of gameplay, I suggest that either:

  • these links should all point to MAP02, because those paragraphs describe the vanilla plot and setting; or
  • this page should redirect to MAP02, with a pointer to MAP33 in that page's development section.

In general, disambig pages should be linked only from disambig templates and similar places where the reader would click specifically because the intended destination is unclear.  Body text should always be able to decide between alternatives.    Ryan W (living fossil) 20:26, 14 January 2018 (CST)

Disagree because you are forgetting the following:
  • The demo version of Strife, which uses MAP33 as its first map.
  • Strife: Veteran Edition, where MAP33 is fully playable.

These are the reasons I created this as a disambiguation page. --Quasar (talk) 01:32, 15 January 2018 (CST)

Addendum: also, using the {{strifeplace}} template with the word "Tarnhill" renders the following: Tarnhill

This is really what should be used to replace the instances of the redirect to which you're referring. --Quasar (talk) 01:36, 15 January 2018 (CST)

No need to yell.  :>  I appreciate the solution; I probably should have reviewed the templates more thoroughly, given all the cleanup and expansion we've had of Strife/SVE material.  The general principle may still need attention, but we'll see if I find any more examples.  Thanks.    Ryan W (living fossil) 00:24, 19 January 2018 (CST)
