Moving the status effects page

Moving the status effects page

I feel like the stats page is too big so I want to move the status effects into its own page. Just asking for any opinion/objections since its a big page

I am tempted to redo this page with tabs, but Kadalyn would have my head for it. qq

But yeah I guess moving the Status Effects - along with the picture gallery - somewhere else seems like a good start.

Hm, maybe~ The page is long, but doesn't take long to load like the Clothing List pages, and you can just use the Contents index to go directly to Status Effects...

However, if it was moved, my only concern would be all the changed links. Wouldn't want links like Melody Step Effect linking to the Stats page with no Status Effects listed.

If the Status Effects had it's own page, it could maybe be reformatted so that the specific status link goes to that status instead of just the top of the list (e.g. Stats#Hunger links directly to that section).

So those are my thoughts at the moment. Not against a move, just worried about links /o/

I am not against tabs, but I don't think it would be fit here. It never really made sense to me why status effects were a subsection of this page. Re-linking everything would be quite the undertaking though, there's something like thousands of links to that page. Most likely a decent chunk can be fixed by changing the equipment templates for set effects, I'd wager. But beyond that you'd have to go case by case to figure out what's a legitimate link to Stats and what should go to Status Effects. But as Elide said, anchoring would be very nice.

Meh, it's probably less than about 400, since most of the links come from just regular stats.

If someone has an idea on how to split the page properly and make a decent-looking Status Effect page, I can take care of the link issue.

Edit after checking: It might even be less than 50, the status effects are not linked from any equipment page itself, and most of them are Equipment Combination Effects rather than Status Effects.
