1911 Page

[zackmann08]

I absolutely agree with all the above. I think the AK-47 page should be split up as well as the M16 page. That being said, I strongly recommend we do one thing at a time. If admins approve, lets split up the 1911 page in an organized manner. If the split up works out and is received well, then lets discuss how to do the AK and M16 pages.

I propose making the following "subpages" that would be linked to from the M1911 page:

• Kimber 1911s
• Dectonics 1911s
• Springfield Armory 1911s
• Para-Ordnance 1911s

Another thing that is very important to note, it will be essential that whoever does this splitting up (and I will certainly do a good portion of it), MUST also cross reference. Unfortunately a lot of the pages have the links in the bad style of "[[M1911 pistol series#Springfield Armory M1911 - A1|Springfield Armory M1911A1]]" instead of just "[[Springfield Armory M1911A1]]" with a redirect. This means that if the Springfield is moved, each of these links must be changed and this will be the responsibility of the person moving the given gun.

As a side note, this is EXACTLY why you should always use redirects...

Another thing that would be nice about this is that there are some guns that appear in media but aren't listed on the M1911 page. THey are just thrown into the "Additional Variants" section on the talk page. This would give them a section just like everything else.

The Kimber series page is looking good, but I would suggest a summary explanation be put at the top of the page detailing the reason why this page is different than the M1911 page. Also for the Kimber pistols that are actually on the M1911 page (such as the Kimber Custom and Kimber Warrior), please link it so it takes you directly to those pistols instead of just to the top of the M1911 page. These 1911 pistols could be on the discussion page as well.

I think these are coming out REALLY well (tho I am a little bias....). I also created a 1911 Category. If you add the 1911 Derivatives table to a page, that page is automatically added to the category. :-)
