Crime tag vs crimes tag

After putting the "Crimes" tag on about 16 different pages, I then noticed this pre-existing page had the "Crime" tag. I changed it to fit the other pages, instead of the other way around. Hopefully that did screw anything up for anyone.

On a related note: I was picturing maybe we could put a "random crimes" generator somewhere, so that you could just click once to determine what scheme or larceny the local Thieves Guild was up to today.

Good idea. Though I think we should also work on an "organized crime" section so that we have a random list of perpetrators…

Good point. I put up a Gangs of Old New York page yesterday as baby step in that direction.

I guess we could put a "criminals" tag on various pages (shady character tropes, as well as organized crime pages) so that the generator can kick up a crime and a perpetrator.

I don't know how to code the random generator though, so someone else will have to institute that part of this plan, or direct me to a Help File that explains the details.

Go to the page with the random generators, and click on "edit" to see how it works. Essentially, random generators list random pages by tag.
