User blog:Mathmagician/Project - Individual Pages

This is a project page for a project where individual pages will be created for each and every single uniquely named item/monster in Terraria. Most of these pages already exist, but there are a few "conglomerate" pages that this project targets which contain information about multiple items/monsters. Sometimes, new pages may need to be created and information must be moved from the existing "conglomerate" page (soon-to-be disambiguation page) to the individual item/monster pages.

Anyone can help with this project, either by mentioning pages that should be added to this project in the comments, or by helping move information around to fulfill the guidelines of this project. See Project Status for a list of tasks in this project.

If you fulfill a task for this project, please make a comment saying what tasks you completed and please leave your signature + timestamp at the end of the comment by typing ~ (four tildes)

Project Guidelines

 * (High Priority) Each individual item/monster with a unique name on the wiki will be given its own page if it does not already have one. New pages may need to be created. Exceptions are made for monsters such as The Twins, which form a single entity, sort of like how different segments form worm enemies.
 * (High Priority) Existing "conglomerate" pages that contain information for multiple items/monsters should be turned into disambiguation pages linking to each individual item/monster page. If there is too much info in common to all of the different items/monsters, then a content page is to be used instead of a disambiguation page.
 * (High Priority) Each individual item/monster page should contain information specific to that item/monster, while providing links to related items/monsters. The specific information should be taken from the "conglomerate" page and moved to the item/monster page--after that task is complete, the redundant information can be removed from the "conglomerate" page so that it can be turned into a disambiguation.
 * (High Priority) In some cases, pages may need to be moved. Before doing this, everything that links to that page needs to be accounted for.
 * (Medium Priority) In general, each individual item/monster page should have a single infobox.
 * (Medium Priority) Try to check grammar and spelling for this project.
 * (Low Priority) When making new pages, try to make sure the appropriate categories are added.
 * (Low Priority) Inaccurate or missing information can be added where appropriate.

Reasons for this Project

 * When information for multiple items/monsters is present on the same page, it can be time consuming to scroll through it to find information specific to a particular item/monster. By making shorter pages with info specific to a single item/monster, readability is increased. Links/disambiguation pages allow for easy navigation.
 * This general concept has always existed around the wiki, and most related pages use this layout. This project's goal is to make this layout absolutely consistent. This establishes a clear, reasonable and consistent layout to use going forward for all future patches of the game.

Project Status
Note: Disambiguation pages are created by placing the template on a page.
 * Red Link = Page does not yet exist, needs to be created
 * Blue Link = Either page exists and has information, or page is merely a redirect, in which case information must be moved/added here
 * Strikethrough = This task has been completed
