[17:02:39] <JJMC89>	 For Template:Elemental Resistance, should individual elemental resistances link to [[Elemental Resistance]] or [[Fire Resistance]]/[[Acid Resistance]]/etc.? Currently it is [[Elemental Resistance]], but I am recoding the template to add things and wanted to check which one I should link to.
[18:59:20] <joenuts>	 just now reading the comment, give me a minute to review and give suggestion
[19:02:53] <joenuts>	 My opinion is that the template ( resistance ) should allow for values ( Acid / Fire / Elemental ... ) where the value provided determines what text will be displayed, and what groups the item page will be added to
[19:04:04] <joenuts>	 Requiring page editors to put ( Acid + Fire + Lightning + Sonic ... ) for items that are Elemental seems to be more work for editors, *AND* not consistent with existing implementation of other templates
[19:06:02] <JJMC89>	 What I'm asking is if a page has {{Elemental Resistance|Acid|45}} should the link part of the popup be [[Acid Resistance]] or [[Elemental Resistance|Acid Resistance]]?
[19:08:07] <JJMC89>	 I already have {{Elemental Resistance|Elemental|45}} coded with a flag for if sonic should be included or not.
[19:09:03] <joenuts>	 ooooh. does Elemental Resistance page exist?
[19:09:11] <JJMC89>	 yes
[19:09:40] <JJMC89>	 it has Acid, Cold, Electric, and Fire on it
[19:09:44] <joenuts>	 So there is a possibility of [[Elemental Resistance|Elemental Resistance]] ?
[19:09:59] <joenuts>	 ( which would be all elements , somtimes sonic sometimes not ) ?
[19:11:29] <joenuts>	 actually, starting over
[19:11:35] <joenuts>	 http://ddowiki.com/page/Item:Pendant_of_the_Stormreaver has Superior Lightning Reistance
[19:12:04] <joenuts>	 it calls {{Res|5|Lightning}}    -- Resistance template, magnitute 5 ( superior ) , element lightning
[19:12:20] <joenuts>	 this displays a link to lightning resistance page
[19:12:37] <JJMC89>	 yes. if doing 01{{Elemental Resistance|Elemental|45}}01 I use [[Elemental Resistance]]. but for 01{{Elemental Resistance|Acid|45}}01 should it be [[Acid Resistance]] or [[Elemental Resistance|Acid Resistance]]?
[19:12:53] <JJMC89>	 so i should link to the specific element then?
[19:12:54] <joenuts>	 tough one
[19:13:40] <joenuts>	 I think Bladeedge is a fan of rolling various pages in to single pages with sectioned off areas, I dont really have a strong opinion either way on that.
[19:14:06] <joenuts>	 it sucks that information is duplicated ( lightning resistange page has some of the same info as elemental resistange page lightning section )
[19:15:58] <JJMC89>	 yea, thats why I wasn't sure I should link to. i posted on ShoeMakers talk page asking him about it as well. as far as coding it doens't make much difference.
[19:16:32] <joenuts>	 It *DOES* make sense to me to have *ONE* elemental resistance page with sections for each element. And to reduce duplication what I would do is replace existing pages (lightning_resistance) with a redirect to the lightning section of the elemental resistance page
[19:17:06] <joenuts>	 I believe that approach would lead to less confusion / duplication... Simple in the end, but does require a bit of work.
[19:17:41] <joenuts>	 I'd lean towards having the template link to the elemental page (element) section with the long term goal of rolling the resistance pages together
[19:18:06] <joenuts>	 ( I belive i understand your question correctly now )
[19:18:25] <JJMC89>	 ok. I'll do that unless someone objects.
