Since this has recently been rearranged I'm going to make suggestions rather than change things myself in case it's wrong (and please don't tell me I can fix it myself :p I won't).

Nobutada - Is there a reason he's under Myroment?

There are a number of PCs listed under Supporting Characters instead of the inactive/deceased PC list, including Kakita Bei, Piro, Robert MacDougall, Blister and Faraday (And Lethe?). Or if Supporting means GM controlled, Theos and Mya are on the wrong list.

Supporting characters difficult to navigate - no longer in alphabetical order.

Also, updated Akeno. Please revise and remove the fourth wall warning label if everything is now cool.

The PC's you mentioned have been judged, in my opinion, to not have been important enough to make it into the PC category, but too important to be relegated to supporting. It's a pure judgment call on my behalf.

Alphabetizing is in progress.

As for Nobutada, that is a mistake. I'll get on that.

Yeah, I had to move R out of the Ancestor's game…

The game info for Ancestors reads

"The world lies swathed in Darkness. To the north, the Empire of Ancestors labors under the oppression of mad, undying figments, powerful ghosts controlling every aspect of mortal life. To the south, the Domain of the Holy Light maintains a brutal program of extermination against the restless dead and their human servants, a religious war where innocence proves nothing, and the truth is found under the Scrutators' knives. Hiding in the shadows, the last haggard worshipers of the near forgotten good gods plot to bring down both dictatorships, but must content themselves with saving as many people as they can and making as much difference as they are able.

Over all looms the shadow of R, Arch-Prince of the distant Shadowlands.

Can a worthy few turn the tide against death and reckless hate? Can you?"

R's supposed to be there.

No probs. No one reads the game info :)

Page Name Changes...

Just a word of warning… changing the name of a page renders all links to that page obsolete/dead (eg. anything linking to Moshi Maiko is dead once it's updated to Usami Maiko).

Redirecting a page to the correct spelling might be the best alternative, as links remain intact.

Yes, the alternate spelling thing is what people are doing now. I'm happy with [Kingdom of Silverstars|Silverstari], but I'm trying to weed out [Crab Clan|Kingdom of Yu]. It's cumbersome and pointless.In future I will use the 'what links here' function, so that I can change the link everywhere it occurs.

Also, it seems everytime I do some work on the wiki, I get sassed…

…just trying to keep work for a minimum. Having kept a website I know what a pain it can be to change the name of a page, only to realise you have to then change the 50 links that went there.

Constructive criticism not welcome?

Edit: Also, it was a redirection function I was meaning, not manually changing all the links. I haven't used it myself so you'd have to look it up to figure out how it works, but for an example kuni sang redirects to the hida sang page (you can watch it happening in the address bar). This means any existing links don't have to be changed and the [xx|yy] stuff isn't necessary. Figured it might be useful if you wanted to keep cleaning page names, that's all.

No, feel free with the constructive criticism. I just need to be less discouraged.
