Disassembly
Hey, just letting you know we have guidelines (RuneScape:Style guide/Invention) and a template for implementing disassembly info onto pages: Disassemble

Fancy seeing you here
I always love spotting someone I know from Wikipedia around Wikia! =D 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 03:28, February 16, 2016 (UTC)
 * :) I'm not here a lot these days. To much to do on TOW. Rich Farmbrough, 19:19 16  February 2016 (UTC).
 * Aah, so it would seem. Do you do a lot of language-related work on WP, or did I just happen to peek shortly after you'd completed a stint? (I must confess I've never really looked at your contribs before, so I don't really know what you like to keep busy with outside of some of the noticeboards and process pages.) 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 06:09, February 17, 2016 (UTC)
 * Auto-antonym's are something I "discovered" myself many years ago - and have my own mental list of. I'm just messing around with some protozoal parasites, because they aren't categorized by their genus Babesia - which came from  looking at some of the external databases of species and taxonomy, which arose from problems with "template transclusion size exceeded" pages on Wikipedia.  I'm also working on creating lists by county of UK place articles without images.

 * Oof, I don't envy anyone working on taxonomic articles. You would think that by now, someone interested in that area would have written a bot to help with creating those articles (and indeed I've had that thought several times over the years), but I suppose no one with the right intersection of interests, skills, and spare time has come along yet. 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 06:11, February 18, 2016 (UTC)
 * There have been two that I am aware of, Polbot and Ganeshbot. The former was a success, the latter less so. Rich Farmbrough, 17:37 18  February 2016 (UTC).
 * Thanks for pointing me to those. Ganeshbot's BRFA pointed me to Anybot, which from all appearances was just shy of an unmitigated disaster during its operation. Taken together, these definitely illustrate the difficulties in using bots to generate articles (at least for this subject area). 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 04:20, February 21, 2016 (UTC)
 * Maybe it was Anybot's problems I'm remembering, in which case appypolly loggies to Ganeshbot. Yes it has to be done with care, but I spent a good time (with Sun Creator) updating the synonomies for turtles, only to find that many of them had become outdated, so it's not a uniquely bot problem.

Disdata
User:Gaz Lloyd/Disassembly. Its also in the sidebar of every page. 23:43, May 13, 2016 (UTC)
 * None of the sources of heavy components have their distributions set, as they don't have enough data yet. You can see the current data here. I'm also considering just assuming weapons are all 35/30/30/3/2, since they all seem to be so far and some weapons are awful to get data for in bulk. 13:20, May 28, 2016 (UTC)
