I am currently working on the long and arduous task of updating / linking identifiers on each card back to the appropriate pages.

While doing this, I have noticed something about how the REG formats these lists that I really dislike. Some pages, such as Genesis Hero, list both Heroes AND Evil Characters, in case they get converted. Other lists do not. At the moment, these lists are based directly on the REG with a few minor differences (new cards for example).

This same issue applies to Enhancement lists, such as Jeremiah Enhancement, but there's only one or two cards that can convert enhancements.

I would like to get some consistency in the Wiki on this, but I would really like a lot of people's opinions on this before I do anything. Please answer the following questions individually.

1) Should I add ALL characters to the Hero / Evil Character specific lists, or make these list ONLY what they describe at face value?

2) Should I add ALL enhancements to Good Enhancement / Evil Enhancement specific lists, or make these list ONLY what they describe at face value?

I agree with mjwolfe on both counts.  The only exception I would make would be to include Saul/Paul in both lists, but as a note in the list Saul/Paul (as Saul) or Saul/Paul (as Paul)

If you really want to keep the old way at the bottom of the Heroes page you could put a link that read "Heroes if converted" that simply jumps you to the Evil Character page (and vice-versa).


Also, are you planning on updating the identifier section of the card pages to have a standard set of identifiers.  It is a little strange to see that Cornelius (UL) was a human;male;soldier;unique, while Cornelius (TEC) is listed as none of the above.

I think EMJ has the best idea.
