<div>So I'm thinking the category should be NPC, not Npc. Anyone have an idea of how to easily move the >1500 entries in Npc to NPC? I might have to write a perl script. -- [[User:Gonzoron|Gonzoron]] 01:05, 31 January 2010 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Couldn't we just move these two over there, and then use the "move" button to move them all? [[User:DeepShadow|DeepShadow]] 01:09, 31 January 2010 (UTC)<br />
<br />
That was my first thought, but sadly, there's no move button for categories.. :( -- [[User:Gonzoron|Gonzoron]] 02:13, 31 January 2010 (UTC)<br />
<br />
In that case...maybe we'll have an editing competition? [[User:DeepShadow|DeepShadow]] 02:34, 31 January 2010 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Ahh... found an easy way. I need to install an extension, but once I do, Admins will be able to run a global search-and-replace on the entire wiki, so I can replace [[:category:Npc]] with [[:category:NPC]]. Should be useful to have around for other reasons too.. I'll get to it soon. -- [[User:Gonzoron|Gonzoron]] 16:22, 31 January 2010 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Oh, THAT will be nice. I might have to put in some requests for global S&R after you do that. [[User:DeepShadow|DeepShadow]] 17:30, 31 January 2010 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Done. Feel free to let me know of any requests... -- [[User:Admin|Admin]] 00:30, 1 February 2010 (UTC)<br />

== When is an NPC not an NPC? ==<br />
<br />
What if someone wants to include a page on their ''PC''? Or alternatively, how do we document the sample PCs from the RGPA adventures? Should we change NPC to Character? Or have another category for PCs? And/or include [[:Category:NPC]] and [[:Category:PC]] in [[:Category:Character]]? -- [[User:Gonzoron|Gonzoron]] 14:32, 8 March 2010 (UTC)<br />
<br />
I was about to start doing this for Kara's Daughters, and I was prepared to put them under NPC's, because I was offering them as NPC's for other campaigns. [[User:DeepShadow|DeepShadow]] 14:57, 8 March 2010 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Perhaps a good reason to switch them all to Character. You never know who someone might want to use as a PC or NPC. (I had a player take on a pre-madness Emil Bollenbach as a temporary PC once.) -- [[User:Gonzoron|Gonzoron]] 17:00, 8 March 2010 (UTC)<br />

:Anyone object to a global search and replace of NPC-->Character? -- [[User:Gonzoron|Gonzoron]] 13:33, 6 October 2011 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Gender categories? ==<br />
<br />
Is there any value in labeling all NPCs with <nowiki>[[Category:Male]], [[Category:Female]], or [[Category:Genderless]]</nowiki>? Or is it just busywork? -- [[User:Gonzoron|Gonzoron]] 13:35, 6 October 2011 (UTC)<br />

== broken link ==<br />
<br />
The "next 200" link from this page no longer works, it only goes back to the top. I'd fix it myself i knew my way around wiki edits better.</div>MadTias
