==Reorganization... Again==
==Reorganization... Again==
To me the previous reorganization is just sloppy beyond reason. The layout looks so hap-hazard and it's hard to follow. And it's totally against direct linking. Plus the entries about specific boomerangs are extremely brief and annotated. They seem rushed. All in all it's a sloppy page and it needs to be fixed. I suggest we reorganize it to be more like some of the previous suggestions. We have a large section about the general boomerang, detailing it. And then we have other good sized sections detailing EACH of the variations of it. This will be friendlier to linking and it will be far easier to read. Say I'm a reader and I want information about a specific boomerang. As it stands I would have to scan the page for it through messy sections. If we reorganize it that way, all I'd have to do is look in the table of contents for what I want and click on it. Far simpler. {{:User:Matt1828/sig|~}} 18:38, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

::I'm not very cleasr on what you're saying. By "previous" reorganization you mean the one before the current scheme, or the '''current''' one? Also, as is now, the page ''does'' have a section about the general boomerang, one about the slightly varied boomerangs, and one about the heavily varied ones. If what you're suggesting is a section fo every variant of the boomerang, you may put them as part of the Special Variants section. Previously, the page used to be divided by game appearances, and it was far more annoying that way. --{{:User:K2L/sig}} 15:25, 20 September 2010 (EDT)

:::I mean the current state of the article, which was the result of the previous reorganization. It doesn't really measure up to standards. It's sloppy and it needs more separation between boomerang types, not just tiny and almost insulting paragraphs in another section. They need their own sections and they need a lot more information about each.{{:User:Matt1828/sig|~}} 19:54, September 20, 2010 (UTC)

::::Agreed. The page is super hard to follow and it's just way to difficult to find particular boomerangs (say, the Wind Waker variant) in this mess. Needs total reorganization. {{:User:Embyr 75/sig}} 16:21, 20 September 2010 (EDT)

This is very difficult to follow. I think it needs to be reorganized by game to make it easier to read and find something specific.{{:User:Mandi/sig}} 20:27, September 20, 2010 (UTC)

:Well, seeing as each type and game appearance of the Boomerang is described in a paragraph, we could simply bautize those paragraphs with a section title (example: The Special Variants section would be divided into Magical Boomerang, Zora Boomerang, Gale Boomerang, etc.). The information is already available. What we would need is to make this step. <small>My, this article is giving me too much bad luck, and to think that this time I had managed to build the best version of it, specially after working on it in my sandbox.</small> --{{:User:K2L/sig}} 00:39, 21 September 2010 (EDT)

:OK, how about something like [[User:K2L/Sandbox|this]]? I have bautized the appearances and variations with sort-of sections, and made the images transparent for the sake of consistency. Feel free to leave an opinion about it. --{{:User:K2L/sig}} 01:08, 21 September 2010 (EDT)
