I think this list of traits needs an overhaul. I was thinking a table at the top with the trait categories in the rows (mental, social etc.) and the expansions they came in as columns. Every trait in this table index go into their two categories. See below for an example.

<br>Each trait should also be a title so it can be linked to directly from other articles and from this top table.

:::Yeah, the skill table is sort of similar. Each trait should, in my opinion, have its own page so it can be discussed and everything the trait unlocks or enables can be added. If we do that, then I'd suggest that we only show the ingame short description of the trait on the lists. On each individual trait page we then list the detailed description also from ingame (when you actually have a sim with the trait) and differ it from what that actually means. At the moment the ingame description is mixed with user comments and observations. I'm not sure what you're suggesting Reimi. [[User:Duskey|Duskey]] 23:57, June 10, 2010 (UTC)

::::I think if 70-some new pages are going to be created for each trait, it should be discussed community-wide. I can see positives and negatives to both. [[User:LostInRiverview|LostInRiverview]] 00:04, June 11, 2010 (UTC)
