Formatting[edit]

Couple of formatting questions for you Sam, since I came over to rate it and some things stood out at me (and I don't know if we're doing things differently on the 4e side).

Is there a reason you're using a different author block here, or did it just not get changed in the move? About half of those categories seem unused, and the remainder are well supported in the author template. Also, I can't do the cool favor / rated by things with this one :-(.

Would you mind if I (or you for that matter) changed the subpage names to match the convention on the 3e side of things? It would look like "Arachonomicon; the Book of Spiderkind/All About Spiderkind", for example, and would make your table of contents links look like "{{FULLPAGENAME}}/All About Spiderkind#<Whatever>". Surgo or I will get around to it eventually if you don't feel like it but have no objections to it.

The author block is from the other wiki, and hasn't been changed (I'll fix that now). I'll go through and fix the page headings now, while I'm at it... I'm snowed in right now and haven't got much else to do! -- File:SamAutosig.jpg Sam Kay   talk    contribs    email   12:27, January 6, 2010 (UTC)

2011 Formatting[edit]

With all the DPLs still being used, this is going to be painful to finally get fully modernized, but I took up the challenge when I decided to clean out the Special:WantedCategories page. If things are broken, its because of this. --Havvy 15:25, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

Wow. There is a lot to love in this, even if you don't play 4e very much (like I don't). The ideas here are well presented and easy to convert, and the lovingly crafted fluff makes me want to do the work. This is an excellent sourcebook, either to use as is or to mine for ideas to make spiders in your games more than just crawly things.

Skill is shown in truly understanding what 4e is about, and the flavor fits perfectly. Even with the limited experience I have with 4e, I can see that these abilities and feats are balanced per level. Overall, if you play 4e, this is a supplement that ought to interest you.
