Category talk:Ethnic groups

In the instance where a denizen's race/ethnicity is mentioned in the article, should it link to the relevant race article even though troll, dwarf, Tsol'aa, etc. are categorized only as "Adventurer races"? Or should there be articles for these races as they occur in non-adventurer beings categorized in "Humanoid races'? Gnaash 21:17, 6 February 2008 (GMT)
- Yes, mentions of adventurer races, even in denizen articles, should be linked, IMO. As for the categorisation issue, Category:Adventurer races is already categorised in Category:Denizens. --Krypton 21:52, 6 February 2008 (GMT)
- It occurs to me that the entire Category:Ethnic groups might as well be put in Category:Denizens, as all articles under Category:Humanoid races and Category:Adventurer races are represented in the realms by denizens (in the case of "Humanoid races", denizen representation is even 100%). --Krypton 06:38, 7 February 2008 (GMT)
- Hm, I only just now looked at this discussion and I don't think 'adventurers' should be a subcategory of 'denizens', as denizens and adventurers are mutually exclusive. I think it might be erroneous, therefore, to categorize these two based off race since race is not their defining difference (the difference actually being source of 'soul'.) To alleviate this, categorize the Dwarf article, for example, as also part of the denizen category, since Dwarves are both a subgroup of denizens and adventurers. Asara 01:47, 8 February 2008 (GMT)
- Wow, that was confusing. To clarify, I don't think ethnic groups should be categorized under denizens, as adventurer races are a subcategory of ethnic groups. Ergo, I don't think 'adventurer races' should be a subcategory of 'denizens' as 'adventurer races' pertain to adventurers. Asara 01:51, 8 February 2008 (GMT)
