This page is pretty ridiculously large, and will only grow after DIII is released. I can't imagine this loading fully on slower connections; when a page has to load more than 45 seconds, it times out; this happens to the Median TU list to a noticable amount of people (note that the list used to be a little larger; approx. 1/6th more). The D I/II/III images don't help on the matter either. May I ask what sparked the idea to merge three pages full of abbreviations? --Vipermagi 13:40, 6 February 2010 (UTC)

It's meant to be a master list. Which is necessarily long. The D2-specific terms might be removed once D3 is out, and they fade from relevance. There's a similar list in the D2 wiki with just D1 and D2 terms for that. If the page loading times become unwieldy, it could be split into two halves, at "N" or wherever makes a nearly-even division. --Flux 13:46, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
Incidentally, I nuked the icons for D1/D2/D3, which I guess Leord had added down through the Ds. I thought they were unnecessary and added a lot of visual clutter. --Flux 13:48, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

On second thought, I went over the entire list and removed all of the terms that only had a D2 meaning. The page is now streamlined and ready for all new abbreviations, and there's a link to the D2 version of the uber list on top of the page. Flux 15:55, 17 September 2010 (UTC)

Cheers. Really helped the page, in my opinion. --Vipermagi 16:53, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
