:I think this kind of page titling is confusing. It makes it easy for a reader to confuse the two pages, and this title is technically a nonexistent work. Mediawiki has a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Subpages subpage function] (that I'm not sure if it is enabled here or not). If it is enabled I think you should split things more thoroughly by weapon categories and do something like this: [[Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades/Rifles]]. This creates a subpage to the H3VR main page. You should convert the main page into an index of a sort and just leave a lot of links for subpages. The gun page links can stay where they are, and seeing these subpages in the category list should be alright. --[[User:Wuzh|Wuzh]] ([[User talk:Wuzh|talk]]) 13:52, 25 November 2018 (EST)

::Alright, that does seem like a good idea. Quick question, though: should I split it into 2 subpages like here (say, [[Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades/1]] and /2), or should I split it into a separate subpage for each category (/Pistols, /Revolvers, /Submachine Guns, etc.)? I'd be fine with either, but I think that the 2-page system would be easier to manage, and a bit less clunky to read.

So, what does everybody think? Any questions, comments, concerns? And yes, for the record, the Oxford Comma is the only way I could think of off of the top of my head to make 2 near-identical pages separate. I was going to use a space after the title, but that apparently doesn't count, and it apparently doesn't like when you try to use the invisible text trick ( <!-- this thing --> ) in page titles. I didn't want to use a note like (Part 2) or something like that, because that'd kinda give the impression that this is a Telltale-style episodic game or something like that. Anyway, if any of you can think of a better way, then please let me know, because seeing these 2 next to each other in the category list will probably look kinda odd, and I really don't want to have to go through all the gun pages and change all of the links. Which reminds me, I've gotta go link those MP5s now... Right, so, if there are any issues, just let me know. Peace, Pyr0m4n14c (talk) 13:03, 25 November 2018 (EST)
