I feel it is much simpler than listing each Forage plant individually. - [[User:Starfarmer|Starfarmer]] ([[User talk:Starfarmer|talk]]) 19:25, 14 September 2023 (UTC)

== Item-specific gift dialogue ==
1.6 introduced many unique lines of dialogue for specific gifts. Currently, these quotes are being added to the villager pages in two different ways: at the top of each subsection (love/like/neutral/etc) just after their general response, or in a separate list at the end of the gifting section.
Personally, I prefer putting the unique dialog at the end. The actual list of gift reactions is the most important information, and having a wall of quotes ahead of each table reduces readability. Either way, it could also do with an "expand" wrapper. [[User:Scarecrow|Scarecrow]] ([[User talk:Scarecrow|talk]]) 16:35, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
:Putting the unique dialogue at the end pretty much ensures nobody is ever going to know it's there because of how hard it is to find, as indicated by, for example, someone accidentally duplicating Shane's unique gift reaction to the Strange Bun yesterday. Furthermore, anyone can easily see the list of gifts for each category from the table which is as clear as day regardless of the content around it. So readability is not reduced.

:: Yes, I agree on that point. Although, I do think if someone is scrolling between one table and another to compare loved/liked gifts, a long list of quotes does get in the way. Which is why I think it's a good idea to put the quotes in an expandable section if the list becomes too long.
:: Looking at some of the pages now, there don't seem to be as many quotes listed as I remembered. So I guess it's not really a problem right now. [[User:Scarecrow|Scarecrow]] ([[User talk:Scarecrow|talk]]) 17:19, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
