As the title says, I wanted to start a discussion on how to deal with the "Drop/Source" column of Category:Companions: The game keeps growing and I have the feeling that the used abbreviations are getting more and more "obscure" / hard to remember (and certainly the "X" I used for 2016 Xmas doesn't help either ;-) ).
I would like to change things a bit, and had some ideas to improve:
- Don't list such detailed drop locations, but only the more generic categories "Chapter", "Special", "Premium", "Fan", "Store", "Code" mostly according to the in-game tabs and remove the level information altogether. Detailed information can be found on the character pages anyway. Missing the Expert isn't great, but I don't want to introduce special rules for some sub-categories only.
- Stop using abbreviations. The biggest drawback here is probably the table layout itself: It is a big table and this will probably make it bigger (though damage can maybe be minimized via CSS) to improve information that imo isn't that important for the presented data.
- Remove that column including its content completely from the table. Most of this information should be accessible via Category:Allies by season, so overall we shouldn't lose much.
My current favorite currently is the first method (looser categorization) and if no one has anything to say about it, I probably will just change it sometime in the future.
