Since the page isn't maintained, and since there's a lot more abbreviations at Category:Definition than here, I made this a redirect to Category:Definition.

:::This this will be a simple listing of abbreviations with links to their individual pages. I stumbled upon [[RA]] and expanded it.
:::Should we limit this to CoH/V related abbreviations only, and leave out things like LOL and MMO? Or shall we list those below? That way the more relevant abbreviations are on top and the general abbreviations are on bottom. Example:
  ==CoH Abbr.==
  '''[[SC]]''': [[Steel Canyon]], [[Skyway City]], [[Siren's Call]]
  '''[[RA]]''': [[Empathy#Recovery Aura|Recovery Aura]], [[Empathy#Regeneration Aura|Regeneration Aura]]<br>
  ==Other Abbr.==
  '''LOL''': Laugh Out Loud
  '''MMO''': Massively Multiplayer Online Game
:::I will still create my spreadsheet/database and include a field for CoH relevancy.

Ah, using Categories makes more sense. I appologize for not thinking of that.
With your go ahead, I will start creating articles for each acronym and adding them to the Definition Category

Hmm... Definition format doesn't look right, too cluttered.
<pre>;word:Definition
:second Definition</pre>

:Sure, go ahead and start adding them.  I added a few just to try to decide whether or not I like it or not, and I think I do.  Eventually, I'd like definitions expanded to more than just abbreviations.  For example, I'd like articles on things like "Area of Effect," "Aggro," "Squishy," etc.
 
:I wouldn't mind adding in some common generic online-speak stuff like lol, g2g, and so on.  What does everyone else think?
 
:Oh, and I haven't really considered the wiki markup definition format, I was focused more on the Wiktionary definition format.  (For example, [[wiktionary:future|future]].)

Short Version

Most acc's and abbr's appear in Category:Definition. If someone wants to maintain this article, go for it.

Redirect

Since the page isn't maintained, and since there's a lot more abbreviations at Category:Definition than here, I made this a redirect to Category:Definition. I also created articles for all the abbreviations in this article that didn't exist. Hopefully, that's not stepping on anybody's toes. :) -- Sekoia 04:42, 20 February 2007 (PST)
