PlugY for Diablo II allows you to reset skills and stats, transfer items between characters in singleplayer, obtain all ladder runewords and do all Uberquests while offline. It is the only way to do all of the above. Please use it.

Well, maybe it would be a good idea to separate Diablo (boss) pages between games. I mean, he changed substantially between Diablo I and II (in hosts, purpose, power, looks) and in Diablo III, if he truly is the demon in the trailer, then he's changed a ton yet again.
Which is why I'm saying "at present"
We will have three articles eventually, but I don't know a thing about him in D1, and there's no info on him in D3, which basically leaves us with a D2 article (since I wrote the original, and that's the game I know).

Well, even still, that would have been a hell of a lot shorter than when I went through sixty-some skills, after fixing all of their pages, and realizing that I had to fix all the dead links, too.
*sigh*
Lesson learned, I guess
Speaking of which, I should have remembered this template myself when I reformatted the Sorceress skills. Oh well, we'll get some use for it for the remaining 150 or so skills :cool:
In any case, I think we can now call it official that all pages strictly dealing with Diablo II shall have the mark.
Should classes be involved as well? Because there are currently over 100 links to the Sorceress article alone, and I think it will be fairly obvious to people that the Sorceress at least is not a part of D3. Classes could stay as is.
A rough list otherwise would be:
items
monsters (at present exlcuding some act bosses, like Diablo)
ncp's
skills
cube recipies
mathematical stats

I'm suggesting we try to name articles strictly dealing with Diablo II be names as such. So instead of calling a page Blessed Hammer, we'll call it Blessed Hammer (Diablo II)
There are two benefits to this as I see it:
1. A user will never have to wonder what article is currently displayed. This isn't an issue right now, as we basically only have D2 articles, but in the future when D3 is released, it may not always be obvious what game a certain article deals with. If a new fan of the series wants to play the old, it may also be unclear whether or not an article deals with D1 or D2.
2. If Blizzard decides to add new content to Diablo III, say for example Blessed Hammer to take an example, it would be best to have the Diablo III article without any parenthesis, while the skill from D2 would carry the _(Diablo II) tag.

Besides, the hard work isn't related so much to what it says inside all of the parenthesis, but rather the amount of pages that have to be edited.

Basically what it does is this:
{{2|Frozen Armor}} calls the template, which will create a link that looks like this:
[[Frozen Armor (Diablo II)|Frozen Armor]] which will in turn display like this:
Frozen Armor.
All pages still have to be moved, and all links replaced. It's just that replacing links might be easier with this.
Blessed Hammer, we'll call it
Blessed Hammer (Diablo II)
