Talk:Painting

Paint, painter, painting
Paint, painter, painting--is there some way we can write this article so that it addresses all of these topics? This issue seems to be present for a lot of object articles. Anoted ☎  02:52, April 24, 2013 (UTC)
 * Nope. There should be separate articles for each.  Rule one of article writing is that articles need to be about discrete things.   23:58: Wed 24 Apr 2013
 * Although you've previously objected to my creating the page painter... --SOTO ☎ 00:03, April 25, 2013 (UTC)
 * A good deal of work would need to be done to make an in-universe page work at painter. It would require, on my part, the moving of a lot of pages that are now linked about the crew position. If you presented me with a page about painter on a sandbox, I guess I'd do the work necessary to move current usage.  At the time of that discussion, I was trying to keep you on track to finish the days of the year pages — a plan that worked … brilliantly.  Lol. In theory, though, with these various occupations, there should be a page about the profession, the materials used in the profession and the thing created by the artisan.  00:17: Thu 25 Apr 2013
 * Don't worry; I'm getting back to the day of the year articles in a few days. I've been busy lately. Anyway, I'm sure Anoted would be glad to create a mock-up of the page, as he's not currently on any big projects. Otherwise, I'll do it myself... Eventually... :P --SOTO ☎ 00:25, April 25, 2013 (UTC)
 * Is there a topic where we have a page about the profession, the materials used and the thing created? I get the theory behind having all three, but it would be really helpful if I could see it in action somewhere. Anoted ☎  00:41, April 25, 2013 (UTC)
 * Not quite the same thing as what you asked for, but we have separate pages for books, libraries, and librarians. Shambala108 ☎  03:57, April 25, 2013 (UTC)
