::Yeah, I agree. I'm working on preparing a document that will allow CSbot to create all of the missing OBSE functions from the OBSE docs, but categorizing is an issue. Currently, I'm planning on just having the bot create the pages with the OBSE documentation, and mostly just put into the categories we currently have. I'm then going to create pages for the categorizations that OBSE uses (the Qualities and such), and see what we can do there, and have CSbot do a second pass then. Two passes are necessary because the first pass will be instructed to ignore any already-existing pages, and I think it's easier to add pages that fit into the existing scheme and then edit them as I edit all of the existing pages, then it is to attempt to add them according to some new scheme and then try to get the old pages to match the new one.

::The new function pages are going to use the {{[[:Template:Function|Function]]}} template that I totally stole from the GECK Wiki (well, sort of stole - I did help write the think to begin with), but I'm going to leave the categories outside the template as I think the CategoryList parameter is rather pointless right now. It'll create the pages for the main functions, with any aliases or alternate versions available on the same page (e.g. GetMagicEffectBaseCost would, if created this way, include syntax for GetMEBaseCost, GetMagicEffectBaseCostC, and GetMEBaseCostC), and those aliases and alternates will be redirected to the page. I've been fussing with Notepad++'s RegEx Search and Replace as well as some extensive Excel wizardry to get this formatted correctly, and expect to begin uploading them today.
