I must ask, do these [[Liquor Mart|shop]][[Lavanderia|fronts]] [[Florists|articles]] really need their own article? How many sentences can completely detail the shops, and how important are they as far as gameplay is concerned? Would a list of businesses be more efficient instead of a huge mess of very short articles? - [[User:ZS|ZS]] 09:38, September 16, 2009 (UTC) | I must ask, do these [[Liquor Mart|shop]][[Lavanderia|fronts]] [[Florists|articles]] really need their own article?

I agree entirely that un-enterable unimportant shopfronts should not have their own articles. Nobody is ever going to want to look at those articles - why would anyone do that? And as ZS says, it's creating unnecessary content which will be difficult to manage. The content you've made is good, and should be put into a list or table, like Businesses in Los Santos and perhaps Shops in Los Santos - if it's a table you could have an image next to each one. If the shop is enterable, then sure, have a page if you think it needs one (as well as being in the list/table), and shove in a couple of screenshots - that's manageable. If it has a special function (like [[Empire Building]]), then put it in a special list for that.

I have another question dealing with businesses in GTA San Andreas. Are [[Carniceria Panaderia]], and Flores Mini Mart the same business or are they seperate but share the same building?--[[User:Gta-mysteries|Gta-mysteries]] 00:20, October 13, 2009 (UTC) | |||
:Is that just a building that you can't go in? We don't need individual articles for every single one of those buildings. There's no point, as there is only 1 sentence we can fit on that page, and nobody would ever look for that information. It would be best just put in a list on one "Shops in Los Santos" page or similar. [[User:Gboyers|Gboyers]] <sup>[[User_talk:Gboyers|talk]]</sup> 00:40, October 13, 2009 (UTC) | |||
How do you make a table?--[[User:Gta-mysteries|Gta-mysteries]] 11:06, October 13, 2009 (UTC) | |||
:We do have a [[Help]] section you know. Try [[Help:Tables]]. [[User:Gboyers|Gboyers]] <sup>[[User_talk:Gboyers|talk]]</sup> 11:10, October 13, 2009 (UTC) | |||
