Is this still necessary?[edit]

Compared to the DPL list we already had, this template is missing information (CRs and colour) and doesn't look as nice. Seeing as the Dragon type page is literally the only place it's still being used, may I suggest we just use the DPL code on C:Dragon type monsters and retire this template?

  • Personally, I'd rather make changes to this DPL template and expand it across all of the "XX type monsters" categories. We could take a look at a few of the others and see what they look like. It's easy for me to move the image to a mouseover popup on the name and add other information such as CRs etc. Then we'd have consistence on all of the type (can clone it for by race and by sub-race categories too).  👟 ShoeMaker ( Talk • Contribs • Patrol • Moves • B • D • I • PP • UM • UR ) 👟 10:34, February 2, 2023 (EST)
Edit: IIRC, it's a project myself or someone else started working on and never finished - which is probably why it's only seen here. It wasn't removed from the other places, just never finished and added. IIRC, it stalled because there was no feedback for what people wanted to see for information. 10:35, February 2, 2023 (EST)
Update: I've moved the template to {{Named Monsters by}} to be more diverse, modified the columns to be more like {{Monsters in quest}} and set the type/race columns as a toggle to add information and added the quest locations. I've added the template to some examples: Dragon type monsters , Aberration type monsters , Animal type monsters , Construct type monsters , and the race example of Bird race monsters  -  👟 ShoeMaker ( Talk • Contribs • Patrol • Moves • B • D • I • PP • UM • UR ) 👟 12:02, February 2, 2023 (EST)
