Anybody Want to be a massive help to the community?

What I think would be a great addition to all of the individual vehicle pages would be a small table to the right hand side of the page, which simply lists "Games this vehicle has appeared in" and would simply link to each of the GTA pages which have that vehicle in.

For example, the page for the PCJ-600 would have a table similar to the following:

Games which this vehicle has appeared in

• GTA3
• GTA Vice City
• GTA San Andreas
• GTA Liberty City Stories
• GTA Vice City Stories

The page for the Kuruma would have a table like this:

• GTA3

... those game names obviously being links to their respective pages.

If you would like to help out with this task, please sign your name here, I'll paste the table code here which you can use.

I'd like to help. I think we should do the table this way, though, it would fit in better amongst the other sections.

Appears In

• Grand Theft Auto III
• Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
• Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

My main concern with these lists is they have the potential to get very long in the case of vehicles that appear in almost every game in the series, like the Taxi. If there's a way to start another column so there are two side-by-side (there most likely is but I'm too lazy to look it up), that would solve the problem nicely.

We should also come up with some kind of standard layout for the vehicle articles, because right now they're all laid out differently and it's messy as hell. Look at the huge variation between these pages, for example. Esperanto, Police Car, and Yardie Lobo. They're all laid out differently (Police Car is tidiest). Some pages don't have enough content for it to matter how it's arranged, but all too often the articles are full of content, but it's arranged a different way every time.

I've done some work on Taxi, what do you guys think of the way it's laid out? Gallery should always be down the bottom, because anything that's placed under it is hard to see. Where applicable, Locations should fit in between Overview and Appears In. --MattyDienhoff 18:32, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
