Talk:Item Shop

The text on the page is straight from the Mabinogi Item Shop Guide. I'm not sure how to cite all this data. Assistance would be appreciated. --Zkin 13:16, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

Wondering if it would be in any way okay to fuse this with the updated web shop page and change that page to something like Cash Shop or NX shop? Ill need to check the Item shop to see how different it is from the web shop, but I assume that its not different and just lacks service, pet cards, and character cards?
If I am the one to change it; after checking to confirm its as I said, I plan to just add the "What is the Item Shop" and "How To Use The Item Shop" sections onto the web shop page and add in the "What is the Item Shop" section that the items are listed below that aren't in the Categories: Service, Pet Cards, and Character Cards or whatever it doesn't have. Thoughts? - I don't have to be the one to fuse them

you can indeed buy anything in the item shop from the web shop, you just have to select a character.

would you say its a good idea to put them together? as in item shop is just mentioned under the new title for web shop?

I'll bring this up with the other mods to look into. Personally, I think they should be separate, but considering their function is ultimately the same in the end...yeah may be better to merge it altogether.

For future reference, when wanting to merge something, use the Merge Template, instead of delete template. Be sure to put it on both of the pages you want to merge. If there is a mutual agreement, it will be merged. Course some text may be lost, so it's best to copy it elsewhere and post what should be in the newly merged page once it's done.

oh ok, sorry I didn't know there was a merge template; I only saw a delete template in Wiki Tips for New Editors.

I considered how many people do see them as separate things, but I guess just editing wise, it would be very annoying to edit both when they are both have the same items that come and go at the same time, which is why I think they both became outdated other than format which I believe has been made easier to edit for limited time releases.

In general, instead of merging; data wise, I already picked out the information needed from Item shop to be put into the Web Shop page. So if anything the Item shop just needs a redirect, the web shop needs to be moved or somehow change the name (to fit better namewise), and web shop would be redirected to it. So its not really a merge, but I guess it kinda is?

Oh so the data's already there? I only glanced at it. As far as the name, could just call it Cash Shop, but I think that's being redirected to Web Shop atm. NX shop works too. usually just call it Item Shop.

All the data should be there. Yea, I tried to move it to Cash shop, but it was a redirect, so I asked for it to be deleted so the name could be used for it. I just thought of NX shop too, idk though what ever you think is best is fine.

Everything look good now? I pretty much redirected Item and Web Shop to Cash Shop.

yep thanks :)

The one thing I find this page lacking in is a lack of indication of whether or not an item is tradeable. This would be a handy column for many people who cannot tell if an item sold in the Item Shop is tradeable to other players.

Egh, this entire page needs to be redone anyway, it's missing quite a few things, and looks so old. I'll probably get to this when I'm bored later, unless someone else beats me to it. Done it before.

Tradability should probably go on the individual item pages itself. I have most tradability data already, but it would be hell to copy/paste/import every item onto the wiki.

Do not see why it could not go onto that list. It would be very handy for the Item Shop list, as people tend to buy stuff to trade it.

oh god. this srsly needs to be fixed up. + Web Shop
