== Note about number of occupants equal to number of guns ==


I don't really agree with the note on the page that says the number of occupants should be assumed to be equal to the number of guns unless stated otherwise. This may have been true in the past, but a lot of the new NPC submissions use a dedicated Driver. --[[User:Trifler|Trifler]] 03:17, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Revision as of 22:49, 22 January 2011

Use the sortable wikitable class for the tables here and they'll be sortable by the column headings:

class = "wikitable sortable"

The table for G-L can be used as an example.


Should it not be one big table now? The sorting won't work otherwise.

--- Probably, but I wouldn't make it a single table until all the 'main' columns are filled, and formatted properly. For instance, if every entry in the Chassis column isn't a link to a chassis' page, it won't sort properly. And the Engine column probably won't sort properly regardless without some gymnastics WRT the formatting since the entries are a combination of numbers and alpha characters.

Either way, I would leave the initial sort on the Vehicle Name Ascending.

OK, all vehicles updated. I'll let you decide what to do about the formatting. I think it would be nice to move the race and deathrace vehicles to a separate table at some point.

Race/Death Race

I'd like to split these out into separate tables. Anyone have any objections?

--- I wouldn't expect to hear much but crickets since it would surprise me if anybody looks at the Discussion page on a regular basis. Might be better to ask in the main forum given this is one of the more popular pages (for viewing not necessarily for monitoring). --Wikiadmin 14:33, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

--- Haha just found this discussion page. Only nine months later... I agree with either separating out Race/Death Race or else adding a column for Race, Death Race, Wild, Arena, etc. and making it sortable. --Trifler 03:15, 22 January 2011 (UTC)


So you know (Not you specifically Trifler, everyone), I'm Removing each line from the master list and putting it into a table below it. I've made Wilderness Combat Cars table already, and the Ant and 57 Gunner entries were both removed from the master list. I suspect you put the Ant back in?

Triferus mentioned offhandedly to me that someone needed to split the tables, so I'm working on it. Any help would be appreciated! --Checkers 21:12, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
