So late last night I was thinking it would be nice to have all the messaging for when spells are cast on you and wear off, mainly the defensive and offensively helping ones. But I wasn't sure if we should have one big list on one page or put them all separately within each spell's article. What do you all think?

So late last night I was thinking it would be nice to have all the messaging for when spells are cast on you and wear off, mainly the defensive and offensively helping ones. But I wasn't sure if we should have one big list on one page or put them all separately within each spell's article. What do you all think? Adam talk 15:14, 30 April 2007 (EDT)

I would love to see example messaging for each of the spells within the article. If the messaging for a spell is too complex, though, put it in a separate article. Otherwise, if it is simple (IE, just when the spell is cast and when it wears off) then put it under a messaging label. If you put it in a separate article, still put an example of the messaging in the main article and put a link to the messaging article via the main template. Something like the following:

Messaging

Main article: Sanctify (1625, messaging)

prep 1602
You lift your voice in a rallying cry, calling confidently on the power of your patron for aid in preparing Pious Trial.
Your spell is ready.

infuse flail
You concentrate on infusing the flail and successfully manage to transfer the power of your spell in to it.
Roundtime: 3 sec.
