Forum:Feral Druid ability names

I've recently made a few tables to get a good sence of which abilities I do and don't use as a druid depending on the spec. While doing so, I noticed several odities in how articles refering to feral druid abilities are named. For Exemple, Skull Bash is devided into 2 spells, Skull Bash (Cat Form) and Skull Bash (Bear Form). Wowpedia will fail to find those.

Skull Bash (Cat Form) Skull Bash (Bear Form)

It will however find Skull Bash (Cat)

Skull Bash (Cat)Skull Bash (Bear)

Good old google found them very quickly for me. To limit confusion, I beleive theses abilities should be listed under the exact name used in game. Perhaps redirects could be created for those articles that fail to name them properly. (Cat) and (Bear) are the old way of naming Cat Form and Bear Form Abilities while (Cat Form) and (Bear Form) is the new one. --Enalung (talk) 15:48, 5 April 2011 (UTC)


 * Moved the articles to the proper names. Splitting Mangle is also on a to-do list. -- 16:01, 5 April 2011 (UTC)


 * Ok, thanks. I moved the tables in question from my talk to Druid_hotkeys. It occured to me that they suited the general theme of the page even though they didn't follow the proposed format. I do beleive they are somewhat cleaner then the proposed format and give a quicker glance at weather an ability is useful or not.

There are a few other druid abilities which could use review. Some of them currently use a desambyguation page when there really shouldn't be need for that if they were properly listed using the same name as the UI. Perhaps a solution to that would be to make it a convention to list spells under the same name as the UI.


 * Claw_(druid_ability) should be Claw (Cat Form)
 * Dash_(druid_ability) should be Dash (Cat Form)
 * Feral_Charge_-_Bear should be Feral Charge (Bear Form)
 * Feral_Charge_-_Cat should be Feral Charge (Cat Form)
 * Enrage_(druid_ability) should be Enrage (Bear Form)
 * Faerie_Fire_(Feral) should be (will need to check very quickly.... will edit)
 * Tree of Life (druid ability) which has 2 articles could be Tree of Life (Shapeshift) which is the name used by the UI.
 * Starfall_(druid_ability) has 2 articles, what's up with that?

Edit: They actualy list properly because I went through the trouble of finding the correct link.
