ALL POSTSThe future of Champion Strategy pages
<p>tl;dr: Strategy pages, should we keep them as is, should we try to salvage them as a concept, or should we just get rid of them completely. Reply below with your opinions.
</p><p>Strategy pages have been a contentious subject for many a wiki user over the past couple years, they're one of the few places on the wiki where we host subjective information and opinions rather than just hard, fact based data and to some that isn't the goal of a wiki and as a result those users feel strategy pages should be removed. We've had this discussion before but never really got anything out of it but we're here today to try and settle this years long debate.
</p><p>I'm personally of the opinion they should be removed and that a wiki is not the place for things like build/gameplay suggestions, there are plenty of other sites out there if a user wants that kind of information. I suggest moving the official riot information like recommended items to a different tab and just either archiving the strategy pages or deleting them all.

</p><p>The strategy pages haven't been removed yet, they are just hidden from the champion tab for now.
</p><p>If you go to Ahri/Strategy, you can see that all the content is still there, you just need to use the URL to get there.

</p><p>The item sets are in the game files as simple .json's, so if one was to make a bot that goes through the game files checking for changed stuff (with the bot's own 'memory' somewhere else), then automatically updates a wikia template with that stuff, wouldn't that be the easiest option? The bot would have to be usable by admins only obviously, so nobody could mess with anything there.

<p>We still don't know how to, or we simply can't, use bots to automize stuff by going inside each champion json. The only thing we can do is manually copy paste the json we need to use on the wiki, and copying 142 jsons each patch is too much. </p><p>Currently we only copy the ddragon json http://ddragon.leagueoflegends.com/cdn/9.10.1/data/en_US/champion.json and the jsons that are found in this folder http://raw.communitydragon.org/latest/plugins/rcp-be-lol-game-data/global/default/v1/. Only in this folder. Not inside the folders of the folder. Considering this, you cannot find the item sets in any of these jsons. </p>

<p>Remove, but recommended items and especially tips and tricks officially posted by Riot in the league client should still be available somehwere
</p>

<p>At some point I could probably make a bot to automate the sets but I've been quite busy as of late

<p>I vote for including "tips and tricks" in the ability details, or creating a separate tab on the ability details for tips and tricks (like the Warframe wiki has). This section would be for advice/usage information, similar to how we provide on Runes and Items, and would not be intended as a guide. Some things we already list as "ability details" could be expanded upon/given more information - such as Fiddlesticks' Drain persisting through untargetability.
