Forum:Policy regarding Jury Rigging perk

Forums: Index > Wiki discussion > Policy regarding Jury Rigging perk

There seems to be a disagreement regarding whether or not Jury Rigging info should be included in the relevant articles. I can see the benefit of having the information but I'd like to see it presented in a different manner, as part of the infobox for the item. The infobox serves as a place to quickly find basic information about an item, so I think it's best put there.

For the poll below, there are three options:

• Include jury rigging as a simple line of text in the article

This is the easiest way to include it, as it doesn't require altering weapon and armor infoboxes

• Include jury rigging as a line in the infobox for weapons and armor

This seems to me to be the better choice, despite the additional work involved

• Don't include Jury Rigging info

This requires the player to guess at what can be used to repair an item. Certainly not ideal for what should be an information resource, that is, this wiki.

The thing about Jury rigging on the pages at the moment is that is just thrown in anywhere, and I also feel that it should have something like this for the link: "The laser rifle can be repaired by other Energy rifles" - RASIC ^{Talk Poll} 16:30, June 6, 2011 (UTC)

Jury Rigging perk information should be added as a general statement, as above as long as it also links out to the perk page. Detailed information should be maintained in the actual perk page and not the weapon pages e.g. a detailed list of all the weapons in the group. As for the infobox, that is already bloated. We dont need to be adding in more information at present. However, once the new infoboxes come into play with collapseable sections then that is a different matter. 18:37, June 6, 2011 (UTC)

What about including it in the repair part of the infobox?--Kingclyde 19:00, June 6, 2011 (UTC)

What, the type of weapon or the list of weapons? 19:12, June 6, 2011 (UTC)

Just the type of weapons. For example, something like "JR: 2h auto guns" or whatever. --Kris 23:36, June 6, 2011 (UTC)
