Is it necessary to put the link on each page? It is linked from the documentation page already. It is a waste IMHO to go through each page and add this. There are too many games that would need to have this. -[[User:Clone2727|Clone2727]] 20:13, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Datafiles Page Links

Is it necessary to put the link on each page? It is linked from the documentation page already. It is a waste IMHO to go through each page and add this. There are too many games that would need to have this. -Clone2727 20:13, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Asking the other way around: What is better: Having a single page listing all datafile requirements for all games; *or* listing the required datafiles of each game? Both approaches have pros and cons, I think. If I am a newbie looking for this information, I might start out by looking at the page for the game I want to play.
