Category talk:NPC

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. -- Gonzoron 01:05, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

Couldn't we just move these two over there, and then use the "move" button to move them all? DeepShadow 01:09, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

That was my first thought, but sadly, there's no move button for categories.. :( -- Gonzoron 02:13, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

In that case...maybe we'll have an editing competition? DeepShadow 02:34, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

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. -- Gonzoron 16:22, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

Oh, THAT will be nice. I might have to put in some requests for global S&R after you do that. DeepShadow 17:30, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

Done. Feel free to let me know of any requests... -- Admin 00:30, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

When is an NPC not an NPC?

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? -- Gonzoron 14:32, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

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. DeepShadow 14:57, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

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.) -- Gonzoron 17:00, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

Anyone object to a global search and replace of NPC-->Character? -- Gonzoron 13:33, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

Gender categories?

Is there any value in labeling all NPCs with [[Category:Male]], [[Category:Female]], or [[Category:Genderless]]? Or is it just busywork? -- Gonzoron 13:35, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

broken link

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.
