Should this page be expanded to include all equipment made by forges, or should the section be removed and replaced with links to the relevant pages ( | Should this page be expanded to include all equipment made by forges, or should the section be removed and replaced with links to the relevant pages ( [[Covenant_weaponry]] ) ( [[:Category:Covenant_vehicles]] ) ( [[Combat_harness_(disambiguation)]] ) ( [[Covenant_starship#Types]] ), rather than creating an exhaustive list of what can already be found elsewhere | ||
Worth noting that since there is no dedicated page listing covenant starships, and it is a relatively short list, it could be worth including these on the page. | Worth noting that since there is no dedicated page listing covenant starships, and it is a relatively short list, it could be worth including these on the page.{{Unsigned|Alsohere}} | ||
:I believe the intent of the product list on this page is to list all items ''known'' to be manufactured by dedicated and established Assembly Forges. From what I can tell, [[Lodam Armory]] is not referred to as an "Assembly Forge" in an official capacity. We call it a "forge" on its article, but that's more of a description of its function. The same would go for other armories and weapons manufacturers like [[Iruiru Armory]], [[Achoem Weapons]], [[Kolaar Manufactorum]], etc. unless the lore specifically calls them "Assembly Forges." | |||
:Additionally, we do indeed have a page listing [[Covenant starship]]s. - [[User:TheArb1ter117|<span style="color:green;">TheArb1ter117</span>]] <span style="font-size:90%">([[User:TheArb1ter117|talk]])</span> 00:21, January 11, 2024 (EST) | |||
::Just to echo Arby's point, the Forges are in a somewhat muddy place, as they're simply a method of manufacture; saying something is manufactured by Assembly Forges is akin to saying an MA5 rifle is manufactured by Factory; it's pretty true, but everything the UNSC uses is made in a factory. This page is definitely out of date, but should generally be restructured more to focus on the Forges as a technology, and their applications, rather than listing everything that's constructed by them. | |||
::Regarding your point on a list of Covenant ships, we have three locations for that; | |||
::*[[:Category:Covenant ship classes]] | |||
::*[[:Category:Covenant ships]] | |||
::*[[Covenant starship]] | |||
::The latter page could probably do with a slight update, but it does the majority of the job well enough. [[User:BaconShelf|<span style="color:green;">BaconShelf</span>]] <span style="font-size:90%">([[User:BaconShelf|talk]])</span> 07:01, January 12, 2024 (EST) |
