I agree that they both have different uses, however, I don't think that most people realize this. I didn't until today. I see pages that randomly link to one or the other of the Likes pages. I've seen some pages that have a link to likes that go to completly different pages or dead links.

I did find http://community.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Sammylau/Wikitable_Filterable:_The_Filter_for_Long_Tables about filters. This sounds like what you might be talking about. It seems like a good idea, but it might get complicated and turn into a nightmare. And are users smart enough to figure out how to use the filter? Might have to set up a test page to see if it would work like we think.

Here's my hopefully simple suggestion. For this discusson, let's call the Likes pages "page 1" and "page 2". First, take page 2 and cut and paste it onto the bottom of page 1. At the top of page 1, put links that say something like "Search for monster likes by island" and "Search for monster likes by monster type". Clicking one will jump to that section of the page 1. We would still have to edit monsters in both sections, but at least they are now all on one page. Since page 2 is now blank, make it a redirect to page 1 so there's no broken links. Now no matter which link is used, all people will get to the same page. Once there, they will see that there are two ways to look for likes.

Not to mention http://mysingingmonsters.wikia.com/wiki/Decoration_Likes None of these pages have full crosslinks between them.

Likes are so important and so complex. I mean I always want to know how many monsters on an island would potentially like an item before I buy it. I find myself using ctrl+F in my browser and searching for it on the likes page. I think the ultimate way to be able to use the data would be in a sortable spreedsheet, but that would be in addition to the wiki page. Maybe someone would take the time to make one and keep it updated and it could be downloadable from the wiki?
