Do we really need to add (Warcraft I/II/III) to the end of all of these RTS pages? Some of them have sparse lore pages as it is. Gameplay statistics do not have to be segregated for every little thing. Darksora110 made a new page for pretty much every Warcraft: Orcs and Humans topic, and then I saw this edit. Is this a good trend?--SWM2448 05:23, 24 February 2014 (UTC)

I do not see why not. Having the RTS games' statistics in the lore pages serves no function as people rarely search for information related to the now-outdated RTS games. Secondly, having a seperate page for each unit allows one to expand upon the information inputted into the page and also is easier for someone who is actually browsing for the RTS unit pages, to browse through the pages. Thirdly, most of the RTS unit pages have more information than your average mob/NPC article, so using your same reasoning (if it were applied to mob/NPC articles), we should put the mob's statistics into lore pages that are sparse provided that they are related, which would not make much sense. At least, this is the way that I see it. --User:Doomer007/Sig 15:31, 24 February 2014 (UTC)
Pekingduckman seems to agree with me.--SWM2448 22:06, 4 March 2014 (UTC)
