Well, arguably, the work needed is not much more than what I did when I templatized the armor boxes. It is something that I can more than manage all by myself.

The point of having another page with the stats on it would be that it would be the only page with the stats in it.

I could also just integrate the DB directly into and. The advantage here is that:
 * 1) Very little work involved
 * 2) Locality of data.

The only downsides is that it would require hacking into those two templates, and may also require light modifications to the page itself.

The copy pasted stuff over and over starts in the individual set pages. Then it appears in the Armor Set pages. It also happens every time somebody copy pastes the image of the individual piece of armor. It also happens in not yet deployed sandboxes: If you want the defense/weight ratio, my DB can get you that on the fly.

Is this going over the top? For what we currently have, maybe. However, if put in place, it also means we'd be able to deploy much more info, much more quickly.

I'm going to try and see about getting this to work without creating a sub DB page...
