Talk:Lists of alchemy recipes in Dragon Quest IX

This article should include one big sortable table. I will make one....soon. --Pagoda 17:09, July 30, 2010 (UTC)

Yowza this list got massive in a hurry! Great work by Zakoholic. I'm thinking we might need to break it into smaller list pages though, otherwise it might be really slow to load. Maybe have a list for weapons, armor, accessories, and items (4 total)? --Pagoda 16:13, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks!

I think breaking it into smaller lists is a good idea, since there really are a lot of alchemy recipes in Dragon Quest IX. I can do this after finishing the weapons category. How should they be named? "List of alchemy recipes for <category> in Dragon Quest IX" is a pretty long name, but I can't think of a shorter one that fits. Should this page continue to exist containing an overview with links to the separate lists?

I would say "List of <category> alchemy recipes in Dragon Quest IX" is best. I will move this article to be 'Lists' instead of 'List' and we can add links to the category lists. --Pagoda 17:49, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

I finished adding the remaining recipes, made separate articles and edited this page. I hope it's okay the way I did it. -- Zakoholic 23:56, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

Clean up complete. Everything looks good Zakoholic. Much easier to find things now in their specific lists. Later we might want to make something like List of alchemy recipes by ingredient in Dragon Quest IX, which would list things by each ingredient. But that's not really high on the priority list as I don't think it is as useful as these lists. Usually someone will be looking for how to make something rather than what they can make with specific ingredients. The one case I can think of would be when you get a high level sword (say the Rusty Sword) and want to know what you can turn it into. --Pagoda 04:45, August 10, 2010 (UTC)
