Changes: Forum:Inheritance of tooltips?

Revision as of 06:37, 27 April 2010

Forums: Village pump → Inheritance of tooltips?

It's not a big deal, but I was wondering it it's possible for one page to inherit tooltip info from another. For example, in Grand Master leatherworking patterns, there is a link to [Pattern: Moonshadow Armguards]. Because there are two versions of that pattern (Horde and Alliance), the link is to the faction-agnostic disambig page. However, as far as I can tell, to get the tooltip to work I have to copy all the tooltip info from either the Horde- or Alliance-specific pages to the disambig page. This is no biggie... it's just as I was doing it I was just musing if there was a simpler way. I guess ideally you'd put 90% of the tooltip info in the disambig version, and then have the faction-specific versions inherit that and just change the races and icon.

Thanks :)
