(Note about changes I made today to the article's order of sections, and request for other editors to please give the new section order some thought.)
(Question for other editors to consider: Section Heading "Members of the CHE", would it be better as "List of CHE Houses"? And why I was thinking that.)
Line 6: Line 6:


Today I rearranged the sections of this article. Formerly they were listed in this order: Joining, List of House Clerks, List of CHE Houses, Resigning (which had its own partial list of house clerks). Now they are listed in this order: List of CHE Houses, Joining, Resigning, List of House Clerks. I did this because the house clerk info under the Resigning section was redundant, but once I removed that redundant info, it seemed to make sense to have the List of House Clerks section follow both the Joining/Resigning sections, as the house clerks are involved in both joining and resigning. The List of CHE Houses seemed best at the top, since before a person could join, they would have to first pick out a house. However, I am posting here because I hope other editors will give the section order some good thought and discuss and/or fix if what I did seems wrong. Thank you for your patience with me. -Soliere [[User:FIRENSIA|FIRENSIA]] ([[User talk:FIRENSIA|talk]]) 01:32, 2 January 2020 (CST)

A second question for other editors to consider: and I did not change this yet: For the section heading "Members of the CHE," would it possibly be better to call that "List of CHE Houses"? I am asking because the term "member" is used in this article to refer to both CHE Members (houses that are members of the CHE) and CHE House Members (characters who are members of the CHE Houses), which is a little confusing? Any thoughts on it? I'm leaving it as-is unless there's other people who think it is a little confusing. My thinking is that when a new member of Gemstone looks at this page, they are probably wanting to join a "House" and have heard the term "House" used in the game. They get here and see a "List of CHE Members" in the table of contents, but if that said "List of CHE Houses" it might be immediately clearer what that section is about. Thanks in advance for opinions. -Soliere [[User:FIRENSIA|FIRENSIA]] ([[User talk:FIRENSIA|talk]]) 01:42, 2 January 2020 (CST)

Revision as of 01:42, 2 January 2020

added Brigatta GREYCROISSANT 21:27, 4 October 2007 (EDT)

Received permission from Assistant Product Manager Sirina/Simutronics to add the newly made CHE emblems. Did so. KAGE 12:49, 16 February 2011 (EST)

Wondering if it would be appropriate to add a list of locations by city which house the food pantries/food carts that the houses are allowed to use, such as this location in Zul Logoth which I stumbled across: [Rockslinger's, Kitchen]. Lich room id: 28677. I'm certain it's for CHE's because on my particular character that's in Zul, she is not a house officer and she gets this message when she tries to get an item from the shelf/shelves there: "Remembering that only house officers can set up food carts, you leave the chocolate mint wafers where it is." Is the CHE article an appropriate place to show this kind of information? Thanks. -Soliere FIRENSIA (talk) 12:08, 27 November 2019 (CST)

Today I rearranged the sections of this article.

Now they are listed in this order: List of CHE Houses, Joining, Resigning, List of House Clerks. I did this because the house clerk info under the Resigning section was redundant, but once I removed that redundant info, it seemed to make sense to have the List of House Clerks section follow both the Joining/Resigning sections, as the house clerks are involved in both joining and resigning.
