Forum:DX suffix

Minor, but significant thing. Currently, the wiki is arbitrarily using a DX1/2/3 suffix system I think is misleading.

Eg. pistols appearing in games have a DX1 suffix for Deus Ex, a DX2 suffix for Invisible War and DX3 suffix for Human Revolution.

I propose using a simpler, more intuitive system: abbreviations. Simply DX for Deus Ex, DX:IW for Invisible War and DX:HR for Human Revolution. It's been that way for quite some time and it was quite simple.

Now, raisins:


 * neither sequel has a number in its title, thus using numbers is misleading,
 * abbreviations are intuitive, distinct and easy to understand,
 * new users don't necessarily know that Human Revolution is the third game in the series. It's even more confusing when they learn that it's a prequel.
 * it's been that way for quite some time before.

Thoughts? Opinions? http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/0/08/Personal_Sig_Image.gif Tagaziel (call!) 17:48, August 30, 2011 (UTC)

Im impartial. I dont think its a major problem, but at the same time I wouldnt complain if we DID change it. If we did, though, it would have to be thorough and quick, as having both suffixes on the site would look terrible. Dorgles 19:39, August 30, 2011 (UTC)
