Alternate Badge Names
« on: March 15, 2012, 02:41:11 AM »
I'd been going through the Achievement badges, updating the notes that say what various names are given to hero/villain/Praetorian characters,  when it dawned on me that the same information is given in the {{See Also<type>Badges}} templates at the bottom of the articles.  Is it worthwhile to go ahead and put in all those {{BadgeDimensionSimilar}} notes, or are the {{SeeAlsoBadges}}  good enough?  It certainly would save time to not put in the separate note.

Well, I can see how the {{BadgeDimensionSimilar}} notes seem a bit redundant.  That being said, however, the "See Also" template doesn't explain to a new player exactly what the relationship between those badges is.  Including the {{BadgeDimensionSimilar}} does that in a pretty straightforward manner.  Keeping new players in mind, I think that it is worthwhile to have both in the articles.
