Categorization of the Housing Items

The list of housing items, especially the furniture and also the simple yard items is now so extensive that it leads to long loading times. Wouldn't it make sense to make a further subdivision here (e.g. trees/shrubs, potted plants, wall elements, etc.). In my opinion, it would also be in the sense of the users, who are mostly looking for an item for a specific purpose. And while we're at it, a search function for this section would be great too. I it is clear whether and how such a restructuring can take place, I would also participate in it. -- Belsaia (talk)

I agree, I pulled up the furniture page and it did take some time. If there are no clear subchategories that could be easily had, then the make the galary it's one page. --Lotroadmin (talk) 22:49, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
I need your help. Where and how can I create a page "Decoration Items (new)" to re-categorize and split the items? Many housing items can currently be placed not only on furniture, but also on floor, wall or garden hooks. So the old categorization (regardless of page size) is not really helpful anymore. I think new categories like "Trees & Shrubs", "Pictures & Maps", "Flowerpots" etc. would be helpful for many users with housing ambitions. But I would like to try this once in a - more or less - protected area. --Belsaia (talk) 17:16, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
You can create a Sandbox area on your own page, to give you a place to work on things that aren't ready for public view yet. If you put User:Belsaia/Sandbox on your user page and it'll create a red link for you.. Click it and it'll start a new page you can use as a workspace. When things look the way you want them, you can copy them to the actual housing page. Lally (talk) 12:28, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
In the next weeks until the end of the year I won't have much time to work further on the housing pages. The categories are not yet complete, but the plan should be recognizable. So I wouldn't think it bad if the Sandbox pages were moved to the Housing Items section and made publicly available (Not instead of the current listings, but as an additional way to search). I would then work on it again more in the coming year and otherwise everyone is of course welcome to continue or adapt the listing. --Belsaia (talk) 19:06, 23 October 2023 (UTC)
