Category talk:Data Files Only

Should defunct monsters be added to this list? I have archived information of Beta-only (JP PS2 beta) monsters, their family, and location (not numbers though) from Skylark's database before its data was all lost in September 2005. I also have the names and zones for the NMs that existed in Beta. There were 2 types, ones which were recreated in the early months of FFXI (May- June '02), like Skewer Sam, and ones which were never recreated, like Asphodel, Invisible Fighter (unusual name, I know, it was in the database, I think a google archive of Skylark's database may still show it), Catoblepas (it was a NM in a different zone before it was a high level reg. enemy), Slobbering Sue (there's actually a picture of her floating around from Beta), and I think one other I can't remember off hand. Some regular enemies were purged from the game too, like Banshee Bunny and a Goblin found in KRT (don't have the name at the moment).

I wonder if these monsters should get their own pages, but be classified as Data files only and not be grouped in Category: their family or Category: NM, only this. Maybe instead of these monsters' pages having the standard monster blue or NM red or Garrison green, maybe they should all have a gray tone to their information boxes, which would visually imply these critters are dead and gone from Vana'diel.

I also think some unusual high end items, like weapons and armor, can be found by looking through Allakhazam's databases. I also posted information on Category talk:Familiars about unused BST jug pets. They belong here too.

What does everyone else think? And should there be a Category: Event Monster or Category: Event NPC for Moon Rabbit, Unlucky Beak, Twinkling Treant, Wayward Worm, Miura & Toro, etc? --zoogelio-forgot-his-password 15:38, 29 December 2006 (EST)
