Forgotten?[edit]

I'm confused. Should the Forgotten Avenger and Forgotten Champion be listed in the Forgotten category even though they are Enchanted Constructs and only affiliated with the Forgotten? Slagleg 15:33, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

I don't think so, but that's just me. - User HeWhoIsPale sig.PNG HeWhoIsPale 15:57, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Anomaly?[edit]

moved from Talk:Forgotten Champion#Anomaly? (Technically, a duplicate question was removed from that location, but we don't have a {{duplicate topic}}.)

Shouldn't being fleshy be an anomaly, since the other forgotten (besides Forgotten Champion) aren't? Leave the Weak 05:36, 17 January 2012 (UTC)

You mean should we label it using {{anomaly}}? There are only 5 foes in Category:Enchanted armors and listed on Enchanted armor. Of those, the consistent pattern is those named Enchanted [item] are non-fleshy; the two called Forgotten [noun] are fleshy.
So, it's eye-of-the-beholder whether that's anomalous or an obvious design choice. For borderline issues like this, I ask how much it matters to the average reader: are they better off seeing an anomalous tag? Personally, I think it's sufficient we noted the difference; I think we should reserve use of the template for situations that are less obvious. OTOH, I wouldn't revert it if someone felt strongly enough to make it an anomaly. – Tennessee Ernie Ford (TEF) 08:15, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
