Maggie- I think we should do this without the tables and all that because this way is much easier to input and correct currently inputted characters.
Kerry - No, it looks crappy without the tables. Why not take SOME advantage of wiki editing? In any case, you can make it look however you want, no problem. If people want to use this template here, they're more than welcome to. Frodo's description is just an example. The information at the top is really what information should be entered.
Maggie- The point of having standards is so that each character page can be done on the same format. If you use the template you have to reinupt all of the information. Also, there is alot of stuff that we don't know for a lot of characters, ie stats. Also, the navigation bar is appearing on top of the page in my browser.
